I just spent 15 minutes scrolling back to find this video so I can thank you for it! I hadn't saved or liked it but I remembered it when I sat behind my kit the day after I watched it. I practised this for 2 hrs straight on Monday and another 2 hours yesterday and already it feels like a blockage has been removed from my brain! Such a simple exercise yet massive benefits. I consider myself a pretty OK drummer but I've always struggled with "flow" when just noodling and I'm feeling the benefits already :o) Thanks man

[@Fisherdrumming]

Man that’s awesome, thank you. It really does change the game, I know! These patterns are so useful and fun to work around the drums. Good job for putting in the work and super happy to hear you’re already seeing results! 👊🏼🙏🏼

[@tedrudko8312]

Simply brilliant! 👏👏👏👏👏👏

Fantastic methods. Thanks

[@davidcipolla4036]

Might be a good idea to explain that your playing these patterns in 16th notes. Especially for beginner drummers, they may need to start these patterns at a 1/4 note or 1/8 note rate, rather than jumping to 16ths or 16th not triplets. Also note that the 6 note groupings in 16th notes creates a 3 over 2 pulse over the 1/4 notes pulse, and that most drummer phrase the 6 note groupings in 16th note triplets since it doesn't require the pattern to go over multiple beats. I think for beginners it would be something significant to point out as the video seems to be aimed at beginner or early intermediate players trying to work on good useful fill ideas/concepts that can be incorporated into ones playing rather easily. Last I'd say it's something to point out that the 1st 6 note pattern works well in 1/8 or 1/16 note triplets where as the 2nd 6 note pattern works well in triplet phrasing or 16th (also 32nds w/a quick right foot or double bass). Otherwise great playing & the kit/setup sounds on point for sure!

[@af7119]

*you're

[@aidensgameplay3308]

Yes can you tell me how the Rlrllk fits over the 4/4 pulse pls? I cant count it it's not like the 6 stroke roll its playing over the bar line I'm. Sure

Eric has made a lot of difference in my playing i had a lot of years not playing and having started picking it up and watching these videos I am a better drummer than I ever was

[@Fisherdrumming]

That’s the best words a drum instructor can hear. Thank you for sharing that 🙏🏼👍🏼👊🏼

[@hdh909]

Ahh been searching for a lesson just like this for so long. I started playing late in life and self taught to play in punk hardcore band .so I’m trying to become more well rounded now. This is great!!! Thank you

[@Fisherdrumming]

That’s great to hear man!

[@plumberski8854]

It is amazing what muscle memory is capable of. You executed that beautifully and flawlessly!

[@sigil_theband1953]

Excellent.

[@YOWValley]

The explanations of the patterns are clear and inspiring, but what I think differentiates your teaching this is how you explain how this helps improve flow, and how to learn to move the patterns around the kit! Your advice to get it right is the first priority, then take it up to speed and your advice on how to take it further to make it our own is inspiring! Thanks!

[@dagostinoification]

Good job friend !

[@mircoparma1886]

Great drummer 🥁👍

Great exercise. I'm gonna incorporate it in my double stroke routine practice.

[@Fisherdrumming]

Cool! Thanks for watching

[@martindalby1365]

This is just the lesson I was looking for. It’s a great workout for my hands and it inspires me to play cool drumfills. I play quarternotes with my left foot, which is also a great excercise, especially when I play the six stroke patterns. Thank you, Eric 👍😊

[@Fisherdrumming]

I have been looking for a video like this for years and finally a lesson that’s like a key 🔑 opening my creative mind and I am truly thankful for you sharing this! I plan to practice this every time I touch my kit for the next year! I cannot express to you how thankful I am for you posting this lesson!👊🏾🥁🤩👍🏾🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@Fisherdrumming]

Wow, these are the kind of comments that make it all worth it man. I really appreciate that. This lesson seemed to hit the nail on the head for many. That’s a perfect plan, practice it every practice session and I know you’ll see huge gains. Thanks again bro 👊🏼✌🏼

[@fernandomendez2496]

excelente Muy bien explicado saludos desde CDMX

[@Zionist_Eternal]

Wonderful exercise in discipline. Been using this basic concept for many years. I would also suggest stretching it to a quintuplet base--i.e., R(L)(L)KK R(L)R(L)(L)KK completing the exercise with reversal of hands.

[@deonlabuschagne2223]

How cool is THAT!!! Feels like that moments (that most drummers think)..."if i can play that I'm the best drummer in the world"

[@codenamecatatonic8894]

Optimus Prime wanted to thank the Drummer that taught me better coordination. 🤟😂 thank you my friend for posting.

[@stephanmarcouxdrums4877]

Well, I already knew those patterns. I also like to add 32th notes with a double kick. Instead of R (L) (L) K... It is R (L) (L) KK,R (L) (L) KK, etc. I think I saw Weckl doing it in the song "Big B little b" or another song, I'm not sure where exactly I did "steal" that idea. Not quintuplets, but 3x1/16th and 2x32th.

[@lechcatacutan4319]

Do we have to grow a stache for that fill?

[@goose962]

You‘r Tom sound is great! I can’t see any dampening. How do you do that? Sorry for my English. Great Video! Greatings from Rendsburg, Germany!

[@Fisherdrumming]

Thank you! So cool to have people from different countries tune in. You’re right, I don’t use dampening unless I need to. If it’s tuned right it won’t have bad overtones. So I focus more on the tuning, and then the mix is very important. The rest it proper EQ that makes a big difference

[@timofelber]

How did you mix the snare drum? Sounds awesome

[@Fisherdrumming]

Thanks! Would be too complicated to try and explain, but maybe I’ll do a future series on mixing drums

Only thing cleaner than this quality video is this man's stache Jesus and those cymbals just heard them

Bro sick lesson! Also is that a D-Vice attacked to the 604 ?? Thats awesome

[@Fisherdrumming]

Thanks man! Not sure what you are referring to on that, the 604’s are not connected to anything other than the tom mounts.

[@msd53184]

@@Fisherdrumming My apologies. I thought that the e604 was somehow attached to a Audix D-vice tom mount. Your tones are on point too!
