Afro Cuban drumming / RTS - THE SECRET LANGUAGE

[@dimsunk]

Hey Phil, Beautiful playing and great teaching method! Very clear and concise. I'll definetely check it out. Thanks for your nice comment on my playing . Take care, Max

[@SachaKDrums]

Hip man! Very thorough. If I get any more mates asking about this stuff I'll send them here.

Wow, this video is extremely helpful. I've yet to completely wrap my head around feeling both 6/8 and cut together and separately... and playing them both ways. Playing that clave feel under your solo was mind-blowing, I hope to have that coordination and comfort one day.

nice, im 15 and i have been getting into brazilian/ jazz/ afro cuban, and i am starting to really understand it, i think it has its own language, alphebet, formulas, and this will help me continue on to be as good as you.

[@aristix6]

hey, i've checked out a few of your vids out so far...really great job, you absolutely know your stuff like the back of your hand.

[@Drummerjoni]

Man, great lesson... Gotta learn this! It seams so hard. oh and i just realized in the end of the clip that i have your book! I didnt regonised you, but i regonised the RTS! haha

[@funkbeastbasslover]

in all honesty, the beginning of the vid had me convinced this would be some load of crap expert village type vid, but you REALLY know ur shit and this really helped :)

@upbeatmantis86 Hi Upbeat...Its not metric modulation really. This is about accessing the vocabulary of 6/8 and transferring it to the music. If you try to do the phrasing with out thinking this way its impossible. This system basically is ear training so that you can hear the vocabulary properly. Hope that helps. All the best PM

[@perikoguevara789]

hey i really did learn!thanx!

[@Bren28]

Great vid phil! I'm only really getting into this kind of playing properly and have so much to learn! So where can I buy your book Phil? Peace

[@the_wig_and_jewelry_channel_]

wow you are amazing!

[@iangordinho]

this is great. thank you. do you have any experience w/ brazilian samba and capoeira rhythms?

[@jonas.lengvinas]

awesome and really hard, i cant play like that, you need to be really clever to think about these rithms... And independence...

[@upbeatmantis86]

Hi phil, i'd like to ask, is RTS the same as metric modulation..?

[@crazydrummertcir]

@philmaturano man this stuff is not easy. i can play basically everything but latin..well needles to say i need to learn quick.

[@HuggumsMcgehee]

I thought I was the only one who noticed. Most of the stuff on expert village is crap. Now, if I see that a videos on expert village, that automatically counts against it.

[@jaredshirt5746]

Ha thats what i thought

This is the kind of drumming that a lot of you avoid. Why??? It takes more then just trying to analyze it. You have got to have natural rhythm. Not all have it. Just like Basket Ball, not all have it. So all you haters of world music,,,,,,, we know your mad. But at least you wont waste your time and ours. Rumba!!!!!!
