Ultimate Floor Tom & Kick Drum Fill - Drum Lesson | Drum Beats Online

[@heatherqualy9143]

Love how you can break things down to the very very basics, for the very very beginner, and yet not make me feel stupid for needing it broken down that much! Thank you!

[@caleblea7786]

Holy crap, finally someone that actually makes educational content for musical instruments that is high quality. Thank you so much for this, this stuff is invaluable to people who can't afford private lessons

[@DrumBeatsOnline]

It's my pleasure! I'm so glad you enjoy the lessons!

[@nicholasusansky9073]

really enjoy your work and how beautifully well tuned your kit is. thank you for all your support. xx

Great alternative to double bass. Playing the hand pattern with the kick on the beat sounds great too.

[@DrumBeatsOnline]

+StocktonNative 209 So glad you dig it!

[@switchingtime]

I love your fills! Obviously everyone has different tastes but I feel like we're on the same page when it comes to what makes a good, powerful fill that really enhances a beat. Thanks for the video, Gabe, keep on keeping on!

[@DrumBeatsOnline]

+Carlos Murillo Thanks so much Carlos! I'm so glad you like it!

[@themole2024]

Gabe, just want to say that I appreciate your approach on these videos. Your enthusiasm and humility are refreshing compared to some sites where the teacher simply wants to show off. I'm a 60 year old beginner who had a hidden drummer in me since I was 9 years old. :) I promise to patronize your site soon.

[@DrumBeatsOnline]

+Fred Zaccheo Hi Fred! Thank you so much for your encouragement! That really means a lot. Keep up the great work dude!!

[@stevea.7406]

Once you have this fill on autopilot the variations around the kit offer even more possibilities...try a medium tempo funk groove and playing the fill on just the snare drum using rim shots for accents... very cool

[@holster4eddog]

Just found your videos. Love the way you present the material. Just starting up drumming again after a much to long pause. Great stuff!

[@fabiancruz9529]

I love your videos and I am learning a lot from them. Can you please add a camara for the bass drum? I think that will help out a lot.

[@DrumBeatsOnline]

I'm so happy to hear that Fabian! I'll take that into consideration for sure.

[@Nuhuhuhuhu]

Can you learn to read drum notation? I think that will help a lot, as actually understanding what you're doing is better than just trying to emulate what you see (which 90% of the time is wrong, but kinda sound like, not really)

[@mrbgnle]

Instantly added to my arsenal of awesome fills. I play the tripple floor as RRL, which I find more convenient.

[@DrumBeatsOnline]

Love it!

[@FadjarMoeljarto]

Thank you..the tutorial 🙏🥁🇮🇩

[@zazodrums]

Merci pour les idées! 👍

[@baldmitzvah]

That floor Tom sounds heavenly

[@mikespiano4688]

many good drummers are bad teachers, but u r a good drummer and also a good teacher...

[@DrumBeatsOnline]

Thanks so much for the kind words Mike!

[@p5gBand]

that was pretty awesome thank you. Going to try it as soon as i get home. I've only been playing since August (last year) so will definitely stick to the 60 BPM for a while.

[@DrumBeatsOnline]

My pleasure! Glad it’s helping!

[@therealmvpcali]

This fill is awesome

[@DrumBeatsOnline]

+TheReal YoungCal You are awesome.

[@switchingtime]

Also, a friendly suggestion--maybe when you're showing us the beat itself at varying tempos you could count in? I want to follow along but have to wait until the second time you do it because there's no four count before you start the fill. This is poorly worded, so the times I'm referring to are 2:37, 4:34, and 5:40...obviously not including the other tempos, but yeah. Either way, great lesson, and thanks for sharing!

[@gabrielyoung9886]

There is a click track

[@richeichelberg2179]

Awesome fill Gabe!

[@dmguk9931]

love these short punchy fills

[@benparkes5939]

That sounds insane. Wow 👏👏👏👍 thanks 🙏

[@fordgt402]

Very nice, is it ok to use those intro fills to replace double pedal parts in songs coz im using single pedal

[@danieljackson3981]

I covered my snare's surface with a towel and it lightens the tone. I also tried it around the set it is really cool. Inspiration from Benny Greb, it is awesome to mess around with the sounds of the amazing instrument

[@rockylikespocky]

I always enjoy your tutorials! Do you happen to have a video showcasing your set/gear? And how do you get your floor tom to sound like that? I love the low sounding toms.

[@DrumBeatsOnline]

I do! It's right here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/o6fIpH2poJVmiqs I pretty much just tune my toms super low to where they are almost dead.

[@joshuawillie1085]

I just woke up and watch the video, than I got on my drumkit and start practicing it, and I already mastered it

[@austincrs]

Ok star man

I wanna learn the fill in the intro.

[@DaDreamEater]

Snare kick floor tom snare kick kick rack tom rack tom floor tom floor tom kick kick Snare+crash That's What it sounds like.

[@cindycheung3975]

Wrong Wrong Wrong! The intro beat is Crash/kick Rack Rack Kick/crash Floor Floor Crash/Kick Closed hi hat/snare Kick Closed hi hat/snare Crash

[@Nuhuhuhuhu]

ERGH! You guys! Learn how to notate drums or fuck off!! If you can't even describe it, I doubt that you will ever learn it. This video is lousy formulated, as custom with idiots, he takes forever to say nothing.

[@DennisYamaha1985]

Gabe great work man!!

[@DrumBeatsOnline]

+Dennis Allard Thanks so much Dennis!

Welcome to the party!

[@nicholasusansky9073]

amazing kick and floor tom rhythm.. you are drop dead gorgeous by the way,

[@88andz88]

This is the answer to my question. Because when I hit the cymbals, I think it is sour to my ears, so I need other fill to look sound great to ears. :)

[@eilampniel2962]

Really good fill !

[@DrumBeatsOnline]

+Eilam Drums I'm so happy you like it!

[@abrielname5362]

Heard this in hangin' tree by green river but couldn't figure out how to play it just by ear.

[@garyclark608]

Another awesome lesson, thanks for sharing such cool grooves and fills!

[@DrumBeatsOnline]

+Gary Clark My pleasure Gary!

[@garyclark608]

Those drums sound incredible too.I think that is the best floor tom sound I've ever heard. I just finished trying this fill, really diggin' it. I think with practice I'll be able to get it smooth like you do it, but I know it's going to take some work, but that's what it's all about right?

[@Direitistaconservador]

Ur awsome dude!! Cool lesson!! Love it and thanks for sharing

[@DrumBeatsOnline]

Not as awesome as you! Glad you liked it.

Great fill and video man

[@DrumBeatsOnline]

[@danoweston6185]

Wish I'd learned this at 16 instead of 66. Thanks so much!

[@DrumBeatsOnline]

Haha it’s never too late!

[@pilotbowman]

What type of Meinl crash is that? It sounds fantastic

[@DrumBeatsOnline]

+Chris Bowman It's an 18" Meinl Dual Crash. I love that thing!

[@pilotbowman]

+Drum Beats Online Hey sorry, I should have clarified. The crash on your right hand side above the ride. Great lesson btw. Thanks!

[@DrumBeatsOnline]

+Chris Bowman That's a 20" Byzance Medium Crash

[@albertwesker2050]

So is this a 1 up 1 down set up? I like it and am trying to replicate it. Just making sure I’m not doing it wrong.

[@DrumBeatsOnline]

Yes it is!

[@albertwesker2050]

@@DrumBeatsOnline awesome thanks! I’m just learning how to play (30 year old guitar player). I don’t have anyone to record drums for me atm and I figured screw it im going to learn how to throw down the basics! Thanks for the reply!

[@Intrepido.s]

at what tension do you have your drum set snare drums,Tom, floor Tom and the base drum? batter and bottom?

[@juansantana9068]

You are all some at the drums and cool doing cricks 😀😀😀😀😀😛😛😀😀

[@ebenezerabiodun8651]

Vry cool

[@bikerdrummer1]

Is that a bass drum you're using as a floor tom in this video ? It sounds awesome !

[@DrumBeatsOnline]

+Jim Simmons Nope, just a regular 16x16 floor tom! I love it though!

[@Daves1world]

Really do enjoy your lesson vids dude. I'm friends with David Cola who won Casey Coopers live stream. ;) really did your videos man!

So glad you like them Steve!

[@antwanfilikian128]

Sound`s good to me :)

[@MyFavoriteDisease]

Does anybody know what exact cymbal that is on the right side (his left side)? You know, the one with the outer area looking different. I love its sound.

[@DrumBeatsOnline]

It’s a Meinl 18” Dual Crash! One of my favorites for sure.

[@MyFavoriteDisease]

@@DrumBeatsOnline Thanks! I'll go check it out right away!

[@rusticofilmz570]

Another great lesson! Great job and great videos! Would love to see a video on practice pad hand speed plus stick control lesson sometime in the near future! 👍👍 keep up the great work!

[@DrumBeatsOnline]

+RustiCo Filmz I'm so happy you are enjoying them! Sounds like a good Idea to me!

[@offspring14071]

Gabe, great Fill but I am still struggling with my double bass technique, what can I do? do you have any exercises that can help me to achieve a good double bass technique? God bless you, Bro, and thanks a lot for your work!

[@DrumBeatsOnline]

+Pablo Dexter PraDeus Arango Ríos Hey Pablo! I'd encourage you to check out the Speedy Foot Lesson Pack on DrumBeatsOnline.com. Otherwise, check out some videos on the slide technique.

[@ethanwanderi2553]

Hey I'm not the best drummer but another good technique out there for good and fast double bass is the heel toe technique. I do still encourage you to watch and practice the slide but if that's too hard, like it was for me, try out the heel toe

[@thebusylazybasist9692]

+Drum Beats Online Hay Gabe nice Vid. pls could u break down the full u deed between 7:30 and 7:35 it's soo nice would be very happy if u could do that .... THX in advance... :)

[@DaDreamEater]

Pablo Arango If you can't get your foot to play only 2 16th. notes at this tempo, i'd suggest to simply workout your ancle. Simply keeping you toes on the ground and 'jumping' with your legs while sitting is a really effective way to do this.

[@dudemanaric]

Should I get a 14 or 18 floor Tom? I have a 12 rack.. Play rock music

[@superstarpro1299]

i lern to roll in drums

[@dudemanaric]

How you get your floor Tom to sound so low with no sustain

[@aidanlockwood9408]

What software are you using for the sheet music?

[@DrumBeatsOnline]

+Aidan Lockwood Groove scribe from the wonderful Mike Johnston.

[@gigalday2804]

What is that program you use on the laptop to keep your timing?? NICE lesson as always 👍👍

[@DrumBeatsOnline]

That's Reason and it's just recording everything. Thanks!

[@dywili]

hey, what metronome are you using?

[@jimritzjr4926]

Thanks for the great lesson. I'll pass it along to my students. I'll pass your web site on as well.

[@DrumBeatsOnline]

Thanks Jim!

[@kallekontio2322]

NIce lesson. What tom mics are you using?

[@DrumBeatsOnline]

Senheiser e604's

[@IsaakLorton]

Is there any pdf files of this written out?

que marca de parches utilizas.

I need joey jordison drum play

[@souvik7199]

CAN YOU SHOW US SOME FLAM BASIS EXERCISE OR FILL?!?

[@lvw_liz]

Does anyone have a good tip to make ur foot on ur kickdrum fatser?? I mean I can probably easily do the fills but I've only been practicing the drums for a year now and my bass foot is just not fast enough yet

[@lvw_liz]

Oh I just noticed the speedy foot thing in the end😂

[@davidpatty8816]

Do you always play with out ear protection?

[@DrumBeatsOnline]

+David Patty (The one and only) I NEVER play without ear protection! I'm wearing Shure SE215's and they cancel out a bunch of the noise.

[@davidpatty8816]

Oh nice! I just couldn't see them!

[@DrumBeatsOnline]

Yeah, I actually don't wear them in the talking portion. But when I'm playing I have them in!

[@paulysci925]

how much was your ayotte? I'm trying to decide if I wanna buy a 6 piece for 3k I'm into the hardware and hoops...nice wood but Bella pricey because discontinued

[@DrumBeatsOnline]

I actually got mine used from a friend so it was pretty cheap. I got mine for $1,200 and at that time they weren't discontinued. But good luck with the search dude!

[@glennkelly4058]

It seems that it would be easier to remember this as an 8 note pattern and a 4 note pattern.

[@mattguzda1427]

Meinl byzance crashes... best sounding crashes in the world MMM Kay? MMM Kay!

[@DrumBeatsOnline]

I hear that!

[@tx2jbh81]

Is your floor tom a kick drum? Love the wood hoops btw.

[@DrumBeatsOnline]

Nope, just a regular 16x16 floor tom. Thanks!

[@vincevaughn3189]

super awesome. however, i have no idea how to kick that fast.

[@DrumBeatsOnline]

There's a lesson course on drumbeatsonline.com on kick speed that could help you out with that!

[@amigazo3972]

It would be better if you show a camera for the bass drum as well.

[@finsgar101]

This is a sick fill, my only criticism is I'm wearing headphones and its almost nauseating hearing the floor tom in the right ear but seeing it on the left side of the screen but thats just me being nitpicky

[@Kombi-1]

yaas

[@AMDpc067]

Floor and kick only? Yet your including your snare?

You need to loosen your snare strands. That snare sounds soooooo strained.
