The Triplet Groove That You Need To Know!! 🔥

[@lajollascott]

Finally, FINALLY, I'll be able to get that car loan. Rob, you're a lifesaver!

[@mikehawkheir5554]

You're the key, man! Drumeo ain't got nothing on you. All useful tips and no BullS$%!

[@geraldchristensen2826]

Yup, thanks to you countless drummers are paying their way through college, dating above their level, finding nicer digs, driving cooler cars, improving the record collection, and making the alimony... We all say thanks

[@kb3ftw]

I have been playing for over 50 years and gave lessons for 22 years. KZbin just popped you on my TV. I am glad. You are a great teacher. Keep up the good work. I enjoyed your approach to teaching, I am never too old to hear it again.

[@jamsjr44]

Dude, dude, dude I’ve been playing that groove for years! Even in just warm ups! Love it!! You’re the man Rob!

[@RobBeatdownBrown]

Thanks, man ✌🏽

[@CrazyHenkie777]

Rob your always so positive, making everything easy and making me confident that I can do it also. You're a great teacher. It's not hard it's fun!

[@johnbaker3375]

I've just returned to playing drums after a very long layoff. (30 years, lol). I determined I was going to start from scratch and focus on the areas I always struggled with, rudiments, hand control, dynamics, fills, etc. I absolutely love the way you teach, it's awesome. You don't just teach a trick or cool fill, you explain the foundation behind it in a clear, consice way. I can't believe the speed that I'm improving with from just watching your excellent videos. Thank you so much. I'm going to be loading up on your merchandise, you have great gear and I want to support what you do. I hope every drummer looking to improve finds your channel like I did.

[@jedidrummerjake]

Learning this groove improved my credit rating! Thanks again, Rob!

[@Augwa]

I found your channel a few days ago man, the way you break shit down is exactly how I need it to be done to learn. Never finish one of your videos feeling frustrated I haven't figured it out in just one watch. Keep being an amazing teacher.

[@FritoBanditoMusicVideos]

Certified Fresh, Certified Cool, and I just got a home loan at 0% interest thanks to mastering this groove... Thanks Rob!!! You Da Man!!!

[@tommyleebaker1]

66 year old guitarist, been playing drums for just a few years is digging this my man! I know, smart move 🙂 Thanks for your help and attitude 👍

[@jeffrittenour8202]

"two weeks" by grizzly bear is a great example of this groove used in a song. it's a fun song to play along to.

[@rhythmsectionguy]

"if you think it's (hoodie) the coolest thing you've ever seen.... .. you're correct!" lol! Love it

[@raymondhenson5648]

Loved it.... about to use it in church sunday!!

[@redbearddrums]

That's great man! I use this all the time for all kinds of grooves and fills. It's simple and easy to play at all kinds of speeds. Very useful. And dang man, that A&F snare... Awesome!

[@bernardfarzin3099]

Really good stuff! Love the humor. Love the groove. Glad I stumbled onto your channel. Keep up the great content.

[@mrlovalova5059]

Certified cool. Pretty much everything about this lesson. Thank you, Rob.

[@charlesavino8826]

I am always late to these videos, but I'll tell you what- I play in a few bands and I'll watch Rob and pick up a groove or a trick and bring it to practice or a gig and I always get a reaction like, "WTF is that?!!!" Usually in a good way!! Usually... :) Thanks Rob, you are the best!

[@DaleSchiro]

Thx bro! Another fun variation is putting the left hand on the hi-hat and playing the 2 and 4 snare with the right hand. Another classy attention getter.

[@christee299]

"Certified cool. Coolest cat for 5 or 6 seconds..." Lol.

[@kasuu5821]

Wonderful and helpful exercise! Thank you, Rob! Greetings from Germany!

[@northamfandb]

just found this site, fantastic tips, great style, great merch, and Rob is funky cool.

[@Miskonzin]

Play that groove on the hihat and you'll wake up your inner Carter Beauford in you

[@therealjamesmccrary]

Modified Swiss Army Triplet...love it. It you can also mix in the Swiss Army Triplet with it to add some more tasty stuff in transitions or in the middle of the groove.

[@mikexibalbafarms4169]

Wow I can actually (kinda) play this one! Thanks Rob much love and respect always

[@donaldmccracken2856]

your a great drumming instructor - thanks for sharing your knowledge and experience with everyone still learning and improving their skills

[@paulfurtado8973]

Bought 2 t-shirts, and I enjoyed your triplet grooves. A good day...

[@bananaemon2339]

YT tells me that me that beatdown Rob wants me to check an awesome triplet groove? I click - just simple as that... Awesome hands too, man 😁🔥🔥🔥

[@roryoconnor861]

Those ghost notes sound really delicate and beautiful.

[@sthulander1]

Beatdown - I LUV the sound of your kick drum !! Deep, round, soft . . . I hate the sound of mine. I gotta review your kick drum video . . . Great lesson Rob. Orchestrating choices and sticking patterns to achieve these phrasing movements (Chaffee).

[@chrisanderson2368]

Hey Rob, love you stuff; watch every video when it comes out. Would you do a vid about playing ahead, on, and behind the beat? I find myself stuck playing behind most of the time, and I'd appreciate any tips to get better. Thank you for all your vids!

[@HankNinja]

This one is also fun to play right hand on ride and chick that hat on all of the eighth notes. Nice to drop into during a chorus when you run up on the ride or the bell. Bell bow snare bow bell bow snare…

[@robertomendez7429]

This is awesome and I'm gonna be using this to impress my singer!!!

[@glennracoma7481]

Man I've never seen triplets like that. So triplets can be played dynamically very cool...all in the ghost notes. thanks

[@woodyrazz]

you are awesome and hilarious! gonna try this groove at a jam tomorrow nite! Thanks!

[@mitchellabdul-lahwaliel-sh209]

Bro you are nice with the skins and extremely funny; especially on this lesson. Thanks bro for aiding me on more tools to use during my sessions.

[@yourdrummer2034]

Cool! I'm going to steal the groove. But I will subscribe as payment!

[@jamesfranklin7450]

Ive always used a real marching corp's white Remo head's on the top of my main 13"x 8" pearl utilitie snare drum

[@thecomet3522]

Yup fantastic . Hey Bob can you teach us that groove you play at 5.37 to 5.38 in your video it sounds like a go go groove but would love to learn it thanks. Yes I know its only one second but its just before or incorporated in your fill . I need to learn this

[@makokan2000]

nice for soloing too ...gets the ball rolling...lots of ideas

[@koehlerdogtraining]

Rob ... "the thing that makes this thing gorgeous" is that snare. Sweet!

[@handy1arnwald947]

[@RobBeatdownBrown]

[@rolandkiser7488]

[@timwaterson]

[@oliviergeoffroy9823]

by the way many thanx Rob for your smart advices..... a follower from corsica ...amen

[@rowintettero1255]

Great stuff! JR Robinson plays it on the Chaka Khan Stompin' at the Savoy album, not sure which song, but he does it beautifully (of course)

[@KKIcons]

I am a beginner that is using my floor tom as a little table to put my remote and notebook etc. That is about to change now lol

[@ronmexico2317]

Been working that lick in for years and yes, chicks dig it!

[@rbjax2001]

Great groove. Gotta keep those ghost notes tight! Great exercise.

[@Drummer_Mike_D]

Dude, that sounds sick! Im working this as soon as my family wakes up.

[@artrockdrummer]

Thanks Rob! I really liked your tuning vids and Stewart Copeland vids.

[@RobBeatdownBrown]

Thanks, man 🙂✌🏽

[@kennymac1911]

My favorite drum teacher.

[@sloopybires5119]

That triplet groove will help! I really need the time count shown of the bottom of the screen (for us newbies!) Good job Rob

[@KKIcons]

Thanks, I missed that so will look for it on the rewatch.

[@AcousticWarMachine]

Digging this! Looking forward to checking out some more vids. “Groove responsibly” so true 😂

[@schorched1973]

Well I guess I know what I’ll be doing tomorrow now. Btw that new snare is sounding tasty!

[@JAMESlock1911]

Thanks! I'm going to the kit and practice it now.

[@jordanblue5630]

ROB - We need the scoop on that A&F Snare, bro.

[@jabbingjabberwocky5243]

Yes!!!!!

[@RobBeatdownBrown]

Soon, man. Soon 🙂

[@TheDepriest69]

YES👍👍👍

[@drummerwarrior1]

Synchronicity? I was practicing that very thing yesterday! The best use for a double stroke I know.

[@jeffreywebb2692]

Dude, I love the simplicity of it.

[@juzzdrums9369]

That snare is a beauty!

[@RazeTheWeak]

Damn. That snare, tho... 🤤 Also, try this same groove, but lead with a double on the right and a single on the left. And start in the snare drum, alternating every double stroke between the snare and hi hats. Kind makes it feel backwards and half time.

[@dwaynerobertson383]

MAN!!! Nice snare drum! Nice kit/cymbals but...what a nice snap, crackle and pop off of that beauty. Thanks for that simple triplet groove filler!

[@tedt.5961]

Certified cool and sweet money groove baby!!

[@davidpomella6786]

And the maple snare drum to your left is that a Pearl Reference Pure 6.5X14 or a Yamaha Custom Recording maple....

[@remusblaque8207]

great lesson! those ghostnotes drive me nuts, but i think it's the sweet juice.

[@remusblaque8207]

@ hard for me to play properly :)

[@yuriselukoff]

remus blaque This triplet pattern is taken directly from one of the older Rob’s videos - something like “How to seriously improve your stick control” or something. He shows 5 excercises there, based on this very triplet pattern. Ever since I saw that video, those 5 excercises became my everyday warm-up routine.

[@j.a.6866]

Beautiful kit, great set up, awesome teaching!!

[@BobSchoepenjr]

Wowie ! From 6:15 on 👉🏼that advanced application and the groove change!!! Blows my mind. On my Mark Lettieri cover I use a similar triplet on the snare.

[@davidpomella6786]

That is a very nice snare drum. Wondering if the rims on your toms are brass or just anodized...look nice.

[@Jirka-h2e]

Lol, I am just creating some random triplet groove and u upload one, nice

[@GlastoGeek7]

Great stuff👍, love your tuition man. Keep it up👊

[@russellramey6394]

Badass video beatdown, you are killin it man, and that A&F snare, dude!

[@twankwhelan8517]

I like your style! Not enough to buy that hoodie....yet. Thanks for the lesson

[@Calis448]

Hello Rob Brown...I have been a subscriber now for some time and love your videos, teaching and insights, you have great dynamics and grooves. This video in particular caught my eye, thank you for taking something, what an advanced drummer would call simple and making it sound complex and yes turn singers' heads. I really like the sound of your snare and see you have hoops with the lugs....do you have an instructional video on snare tuning? Thanks!

[@RobBeatdownBrown]

I have a full tuning workshops on the channel. Just type ‘rob brown tuning’ in the search bar ✅

[@KKIcons]

I saw a great one from him where you can tune the snare right along with him along using two keys.

[@emlix1]

Coolest brass snare drum ever.

[@TimSuliman]

A&F snare is smokin

[@davefiano4172]

Cool. Two of my favorite things, drums and humor. High Five!! I have to buy a T shirt, but Riddle me this: the ghost notes come naturally to me using my right hand (I’m right handed), difficult with my left. Am I really left handed or just fundament(ally) challenged?

[@KillahCam00420]

Is this a variation of the Rosanna Shuffle?

[@jaymuise5318]

Rob is the Dr of groove

[@mrmisfit635]

Rob showed us the money!

[@dinodeluca6210]

Hey Rob! Greetings from Montreal! Gotta say I love your teaching style. My son won't listen to anything I try and show him but he watches you and learns...he is getting better and better just taking in what you're showing. You're great! Thanks so much.

[@RobBeatdownBrown]

Cool stuff, man. Thanks 🙂✌🏽

[@keurosen]

Beautiful sounding cymbals, and exceptionally groovy snare as everyone else here seem to have noticed

[@DennisYamaha1985]

Love it, Rob! Bass drum notes can make all the diff as well!

[@pinkled4429]

Like Bonham

[@hadleymanmusic]

I havent touched my kit in a while. I got a computer for daw and audacity and reaper. I need new rattles on my ludwig marchin snare. They nylons the individual tuners kind and the tuners are stuck. I would like metal rattles. When I seriously got a song to record ill put new heads. Man I tuned these and set em in the corner. You can step over by em a belt out a vocal and they harmon8ze.

[@alanbarber483]

Hey Rob thats a great lesson. Is there any chance you could do a lesson on tasty fills for shuffle grooves? Much appreciated

[@RobBeatdownBrown]

I'll keep it in mind 🥁

[@pyroeuropa]

I first discovered it when I changed snarehits instead the hihat on a shuffle Also Mario duplantier from Gojira played it on Global warming

[@joseph2219801]

I'm just getting started in drumming and looking for information on a few cymbels other than the hi hat for Jazz drumming? looking to buy mid priced stuff.

[@ronboboc1655]

thanks for helping US see the light

[@markomarkovic5729]

Hey man, nice groove/fill, I really like it! Speaking of ghost notes - I played them like that (closer to the edge) all the time, until someone told me that I'm doing it the wrong way. I was told that these were ghost notes in principle, but that's not how they should be played. I've tried to get those ghosts to sound as nice as before (when I was doing it the "wrong" way), but they just didn't sounded good, so I "cheated". I tend to use ghost notes a lot in my grooves, but my grooves weren't that good when I played them "correctly".

[@scottmcneff2560]

Bro love watching your videos!

[@67bronski]

awesomee, sometimes i play roseanna with this groove 🤘🤘🤘

[@RockyTop85]

Ulrich Götz as you should...

[@richardpenman5910]

That's a great groove on Country Tunes like on the road again by Willie Nelson. A different feel though than how you're playing it

[@richboshart1201]

My word Beatdown, that snare!

[@barringtonjohnson6569]

Can you break down the left hand pleeeeease Rob?

[@Johnbobon]

That groove was certified cool. 😎

[@wesleyaustin2951]

Killa Groove you never disappoint
