Day by day David is the best death metal drummer!

Its Da-vid! My man! Thanks Marthyn, love to hear from the best! Can't wait to see who's next! Its funny how many of these mistakes I made when I started out. I was practicing 8+ hours on the double bass and David is exactly right, if you're having a bad day just throw in the towel. I can't begin to tell you how much time I've wasted trying to get things perfect on a sh*tty day and all its going to do is frustrate the hell out of you.

@@SamiK1989 That's the way to do it for sure. I even noticed a few times I went out of town or something and didn't play for a week or two and was actually much better when I started back up so sometimes taking a longer break doesn't hurt either, it can actually help. Good luck with the ankle technique, its a lot of fun!

[@Pure_KodiakWILD_Power]

Interesting tip on using spring tension to keep the beater off the head.

[@craigstrickland1572]

Lots of great tips from two great drummers.

[@EvilsonicRecords]

Instant follow for bringing him several times over years. David is an amazing drummer and it's great that more people can learn from him. We didn't have this kind of opportunities back in the day.

[@luckyStroke87]

Thank you guys! totally helpful and well explained aspects - not only for double bass learning :)

[@mohamedtalha1197]

thank you both very much, very useful video!

Huge fan of David !!! Hailzzz from Poland 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻

[@vizioon6430]

[@kristopherkc2472]

Danke Marthyn und David! 🤘🙌

[@eddye7466]

Vielen vielen dank die Herren🙋🏼‍♂️

[@thatfilipinodrummer]

Solid Seat! Agreed.

[@bishjb]

Awesome. As a beginner I'm currently shopping for twin kick pedal

[@uglypineapple03]

Yessss, David Sehr informativ das Video, diese Format-Idee erscheint sehr passend für diesen Kanal Find ich geil Und das beste ist natürlich mehr David, ist ja logisch

[@victorsupreme214]

DeWalt make an adjustable shop stool, perfect for those of the Hoglanistic/Barkeresque aesthetic

[@88skisupreme]

Do a technique or reaction video for Nomeansno, John Wright is the most under-rated drummer.

[@Kommander696]

Can we please get David to do a drum cover of a Sarpanitum track of his choosing. Please \m/

[@joelkimmel9374]

In your opinion what do you consider an inexpensive pedal? I’m a beginner on double bass and am looking at pedals such as the used Pearl p2052c Eliminator for around $350 USD. Is that a decent beginner pedal?

[@drumtechniqueacademy]

Yes that's a good pedal 👍

[@joelkimmel9374]

@@drumtechniqueacademy thanks brother! It’s a toss up between that pedal, which is a duel chain drive, and the Yamaha DFP-9500D Direct Drive. Which do you think is better? I’m using an e-kit in my apartment so I don’t necessarily need power

[@demonocusmetalocus3558]

Train your muscle memory and speed will come.

[@BLASTBEATOLOGY]

It is very strange to hear that it takes only 20 minutes a day to practice push pull. I practice push pull for at least 1.5 hours a day, am I doing something wrong??

[@drumtechniqueacademy]

I think David managed to get a decent result with those 20 minute workouts 😂

[@mellindrums]

You're one of the best push pull players out there so no you're not doing anything wrong. 😅

[@robertredford4332]

the most important is the stool height

[@angelastegmayr6987]

Hey Marthyn I love your Channel How about your child ? Is it a Boy or a Girl ? I miss Hellhammer and Frost in the Drum Academy.... Both are Masters of Drumming..... I love your Comments.... Greetings from Bavaria Hope you are doin fine.... Greetings from Ingolstadt

[@scottbromage2210]

The first video I have ever seen from David was his, "Dead set on suicide" from "Cattle Decapitation" drum cover! However, I have commented on every video I have ever seen from him, and I "used to" look up to him! But I just feel like he has progressed kind of down a negative road, at least as far as his appreciation for "fansgetting a taste of being paid for your talents, I just got the impression that he feels like he is too good for everybody now I hate to say it because I idolized him... Anyways, What does my opinion matter? I just wanted to express that to people!💜

[@drumtechniqueacademy]

He took the time to do this interview and allowed me to share all of this for free...don't get a "too good for anybody" vibe from him... I personally think he's awesome and a down to earth guy 🤟

[@scottbromage2210]

@@drumtechniqueacademy I would hope anyone for that matter "as far as conversing with you" wouldn't require payment! Anyways, when I see people I like, or admire. I try to study that person's way of carrying themselves and how they interact with others. I think the way you respond to your fans, is extremely fulfilling and flattering! And I just didn't see that response coming from Dave anymore. (I'm going back approx. 2 years.) However, If someone has the time to record, edit, and upload a video..Then take a couple minutes to drop a Few words of small talk with a few commenters. It'll go a long way for some people! (Again,these are just my own thoughts and opinions)
