Marching drummer here. Some other useful variations are 2-note timing and also switching with accent you play first (aka "backwards" or "reverse" grids ). another fun one to try is the "gauntlet" working through the major flam grids - flam, flam drag, cheese, and flam 5, no stopping in between. if you move the rudiment from 1st, 2nd, 3rd partial you get 12 grids. Incredibly challenging and builds mental endurance.

That sounds pretty cool! What do you mean by two note timing? Is it like accent every 2nd note to crest other accent patterns? Thanks for checking out the video 😁

Great stuff. I’m adding this to my “ book “ 🙏. I have had good luck improving my facility using Tommy Igoes’ rudimental routine which I do daily . He has a 16 th singles grid ( added item ) . I love these triplet based accent grids . So Interesting how accents can be funky . Thus from “ chops “ to musically application . very cool Sir 🙏

I’m so glad! The 16th note grid is actually related to this exercise. I’m sure that Igoe did tons of grids while he was in the Blue Devils. You can definitely apply the grid to 16th based rudiments like the flam paradiddles. So glad you enjoyed the triplet grid!

Great stuff, glad to see this is out there. This was a concept that Tom Float came up with back in the early ‘80’s with his Spirit of Atlanta lines. He had a great mathematical mind when it came to teaching music.

Gotta love the grid. We played these in Atlanta under Tom Float with the Spirit of Atlanta Drum Bugle Corps. (1980) We played the triplet version adding flams and the 16th note version. Thanks for sharing.

Yes. Tom Float was an icon in the D.C.I. arena. He taught so many great lines in his days in Canada, Atlanta and finally in California with the Blue Devils. I use his exercises to this day. I came along in D.C.I. at just the right time in order to experience the blessing of this activity at a time when things were really solid. So many fans, so many great instructors and music.

Hey Nate, I am an experienced player, but always looking for drills and ways to get motivated and retrain the old chops into new directions and challenges, this one is really cool, it’s kind of jumpstarting my playing after a slow period. If you have any good drills for single strokes, please share, thanks

Hey Greg, I’m so glad you found value in this video. I love the grid, and learned a lot from it. If you check out my website downloads page (www.natezynskidrums.com/general-1) you’ll find not only other grid exercises, but a singles exercise that you may like. It deals with small groups of singles (3->10 as 32nds). There is also a video in my Shorts section on my YT page. Thanks for watching!

Great Lesson! Can you talk about Sticks? I started off with some graphite sticks, then moved to Vic Firth 5A, then to 3A. I can't seem to keep a grip on any of them. They are all so slippery that they slide back in my Left Hand (traditional grip), so that I end up at the end of the stick. Thanks! Jack
@Natezynski
@Natezynski Жыл бұрын
Thank you! I love the grid, it’s a huge chopsbuilder. How long have you been playing? You may want to consider your LH technique, that the main fulcrum point is between your thumb and palm. I actually have an older video on my channel about building the left hand grip that may help with that. Otherwise, you may consider stick tape to increase the friction for your grip. Or, you could check out Vic Firth’s Puregrit line of sticks; they’re made with a rougher finish, so there’s a bit more friction than normal sticks. Hope this helps!

In my experience, this has more to do with your handling of the balance point of the stick than with the material or texture. I play with the Vic Firth "extreme" (extra length) series generally, but if I switch back to regular 16" sticks, I tend to have the same problem, both hands. It might be about spending time on the sticks you've settled with and experimenting with your fulcrum points, as well as the balance between fingers and wrists in your strokes. All the best figuring it out!

I get that, same problem, and I’m a pro player, playing for over 50 years. It can be something as simple as using a little hand moisturizer in the morning, or before you play, that actually helps me a lot, specially in the colder months when apartments/homes are really dry, good luck!

This is great, Nathan. I'm going to show my daughter (she's the drummer in the house) tomorrow. What I'd like to know is what you should be doing mentally during an exercise like this? Are you internally saying the RLRR patterns or counting numbers, or are you listening to actually hear the pattern itself so that your body understands what it has done to make that rhythm? Subbed and will be checking out your other vids. Keep them coming.

@Natezynski Жыл бұрын
Thanks! I surely will 😎 is there anything in particular you are looking for in this channel? I would love to get your feedback. For this exercise, I’m mostly focusing on the feeling where the the beat is vs where the accent lands. Timekeeping goes better when you feel it. What can help for someone just starting to do it is counting through it slowly. Some people use “1-tri-plet 2-tri-plet”, some use “1-and-uh 2-and-uh”. That’s probably the best way to start, so you get the feel of it
