I personally prefer the slide technique too. 😊😊😊😊

[@xianghou7820]

Appreciate it, very helpful. Im using heel down to play double for a while but it gives a lot of pressure to shin muscles where consecutive doubles are needed. Trying slide technique as an alternative for that situation. Very clear demonstration here. Thanks again for responding the request. ❤

[@ThatSwedishDrummer]

Glad you liked it, buddy! Heel down is a great technique for softer playing and low volume dynamics, but it’s not a great motion for speed/strength. Good luck with the practice!💪🔥

You’re so clean with your single pedal and hi hat work. 🔥

[@ThatSwedishDrummer]

Cheers!

[@d.d.b.5228]

Thank you. One guy I was watching here used his knee on his down stroke tgen used his ball of foot to continue from the downstroke of the first one

Thanks for the video! Really helpful. But I have a request, could you please make a video about ghost notes? I'm struggling with them for a week already, still can't get how to do them right.

[@ThatSwedishDrummer]

I already have! Check my channel ✌️🔥 It’s just from a few months ago

Good video

[@joehoffrage]

Great vid! But I’m a bit confused, as I just saw a video last week of a guy doing the slide where he starts low and goes high, you start high and go low. I guess I’ll have to work and see which might be better for me.

[@ThatSwedishDrummer]

Everyone has their own techniques, and it's up to you to see what works for you best ^^

[@markmitchell4451]

What effect does beater angle and spring tension have on the slide technique? Tia

[@ThatSwedishDrummer]

Many factors play into certain techniques for certain people. Some like to have the beater far back with loose tension for more power in the strokes, and some like to have it close to the head with a tighter tension. It's all about trial and error :)

[@lobbyrobby]

I'm fairly new to learning drums. The other day I tried playing a beat with with a quick double kick. I play heel up. I can absolutely get those 2 kicks in but it's almost too fast. Like I can't control the first to the second kick. Granted this was the first time I've tried it. I spent several more hours working on it but again I just can't control the speed. I looked up heel toe but I've seen a few different videos and they don't seem to match. Anyway I tried heel toe and then I could control the speed way better but I don't think I'm actually doing heel toe haha. What I'm doing is for that first kick I feel my heel coming down a tad more than usual. Then I pull my foot off and use more of my toes to get the second kick in. This way it feels like 2 different motions. However, moving forward I don't know if this is a good technique to be using. It works for now tho. Sorry for the long explanation but here's a question. For the heel toe method does the heel actually hit the footboard to create a hit on the bass drum??? I have a new Tama speed cobra 910 coming tomorrow. It's a long board.

[@ThatSwedishDrummer]

Hey! I don’t use heel/toe-technique that often, but to answer your question: Depending on the length of your pedal board, the heel doesn’t actually hit the pedal (at least not that hard!). The “heel downward-motion” is less stomping the heel, but more of a motion to let the ball of the foot get more leverage for a second stroke quickly after the first stroke.

[@EricB07]

Take a look at YOYOKA SOMA and her triplets...she's amazing.

[@K3NH]

From research i always thought this should work opposite. So the first is away the pedal and the next closer.... Anyway all of them tricks are a dead 100bpm 16th end for me....

[@じゅげむ-s6b]

Same, away then closer is better for me

[@TheJgraham12345]

Are your feet dangling when you sit on the throne? I’m still trying to find the best throne height to help my pedal playing.

[@ThatSwedishDrummer]

Absolutely not. You should position your throne hight so your hip is slightly higher up than your knees :)

[@Minister_Obed_Acquah]

Kindly do a lesson on worship drum solo 🙏 😢

[@ThatSwedishDrummer]

Well, I don't really play worship music haha. But you can apply a lot of the fills I've posted on this channel into worship songs!

[@michaelohlsson9983]

Aha, i got it. Uncle Mike.

[@polishsabian]

i can finally play the stargazer intro

[@ThatSwedishDrummer]

NICE!

[@B.GDayananda]

And i want to know how do u lift your hihat slitly on a Grove.

[@ThatSwedishDrummer]

Keep the heel down on the hi-hat pedal, and lift the top of your foot slightly :)

Hello

Wow

[@joshcontreras8941]

I keep using my damn toes 😫

[@tradesallofjack1465]

I've been playing drums for 20 years why the fuck can I get my foot to do this?

[@ThatSwedishDrummer]

If you mean "can't", then it might be because you haven't practiced it? 😅

[@tradesallofjack1465]

What's funny is right after I commented this I did it lol. Yes practice makes perfect. Thank you for your help! It's actually quite simple

[@ColtonGuman]

Use two feet on ur pedal and play a singal pedal with both feet on one pedal Problem solved

[@ThatSwedishDrummer]

Hahaha if only

[@akcaxup]

Make sound bit louder, pls

[@chrismccraven4059]

This gentleman is nice enough to share his thing with us, and all you can stay in is your opinion...

[@ThatSwedishDrummer]

I can't change volume in post ;) Plus, it sounds fine through my speakers/headphones.

[@zoeydee7168]

Love the sound of your snare drum. What snare are you using if I may ask? Great video!

[@ThatSwedishDrummer]

Thanks! It's a Benny Greb signature brass snare :)
