Literally the greatest freaking snare I've ever heard in my entire freaking life holy freaking crap

[@AMDpc067]

q Haven how? It sounds dead and boxy!

[@AMDpc067]

TForTeddy you can make any snare sound like this with tuning.

[@Crazymelvis]

@@AMDpc067 Not that easy, and it is pretty freaking amazing.

[@jonatanurrea5363]

That snare sound is just perfect.

[@DrumsJon]

To this day, this is one of my favorite tracks to play!

[@54mannow61]

Love Your Snare sound . Your Whole Kit Sounds Great. Thank you God Bless.

[@T-Cup314]

Thank you !!! I have an audition soon and this is track I will be drumming too. Wish me luck I am so excited !!!!!

[@gregadams7126]

Thank you David for this video! Not only did this video teach me not to over play this song, but it also gave me a golden tom tuning reference point! You’re the man!

[@IAmWarHammer]

[@gregorywayneadams]

David. Brother. That snare though 😍

Thank you very much for this video helps me out so much I've been having such a hard time coming in on this song you've cleared it all up for me

[@simivalley6273]

Excellent! Thanks for providing this tutorial! It's helped me so much.

[@andyperez4857]

That’s some awesome drumming

[@ChrisGleichEine]

That’s Awesome. I learned some parts of the song in a view of minutes. The video is very good 👍👏🏻👏🏻 😊 has

[@yaboibdc]

Dang man soo good! You love to play on the backend of the click

[@King-yt9vm]

Hopefully I can learn this in 5 days

[@Doulos.Romans8.34]

How'd it go?

[@guitarperformance576]

I get that 😂

[@lucasargandona4658]

I'm not a drummer myself self, but what I've been noticing about drumming is that simplicity almost always sounds better (at least in my opinion). It just sounds more jucier.

[@XeRo333]

Exactly!! Just gotta think K.I.S.S.(keep it simple, stupid!) And even tho it's simple it's still punchy, powerful, & really rocks

[@Branhawk]

All the drummers at my church overplay this.

[@tyler4girlz]

T AN Tell them not to.

[@ronherhuth6573]

He’s playing a laid back groove..if he played exactly to the metronome it would sound to mechanical.

[@MatthewRBenavides]

Playing the song in time has never and will never sound mechanical. It actually takes a somewhat decent musician to be able to refrain from improvising and possibly ruining the song by overplaying it.

[@VeryScaryBiscuits]

I've played this at church, and I found with this song, and a lot of songs, when you stick to the original drum parts, it can seem like you are overplaying A LOT. Sometimes things require more simplicity. And sometimes a little extra (for the sake of timekeeping). Time keeping is paramount, of course...peace

[@matthewcabrera1690]

I play it how the original song is at my church

[@jaredebeling1412]

that snare sounds so HOT!

[@mjskiee8464]

I wanna have my snare sound like this!

[@brengeldelacruz8866]

Tune it low and dampen

[@brengeldelacruz8866]

Very low

[@HunterShawMusic]

@@brengeldelacruz8866 It's not tuned very low. PS4 and tuned medium. Most of the fatness comes from the 42 strand snare wires and the big thick head.

[@ChasingThreadsbyKim]

Amazing!

[@reeeygun]

Hey how can you know when to hit the intro? Because I can't hear the pattern

[@tzj1989]

That kick sound is so good! Any tips?

[@guddrums151]

I love worship and here in Brazil we have no play alongs in this musical style. Could you indicate a website to achieve play alongs in this style of music?

[@victorportovitimbatera]

Perfect groovin of the music.

[@paulbarnett539]

Really helpful thanks alot !!!

[@XeRo333]

As soon as I heard the click I was like "whao!! That's way too fast for that song!" Then I realized when taking the click away it was also counting the &s, so 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 &😂

[@taitemarshall]

Well essentially Im pretty sure they make the click 4/8, or vice versa. So basically its 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8, within 1 bar. If that makes sense.

[@irielcorr]

tutorial for Reckless Love music please

[@ASAPSnipin]

Finally!!!!

[@ronherhuth6573]

Playing with the butt of the stick on one hand auto creates automatic dynamic differences between the hands and adds that nice feel to what would otherwise sound mechanical with the constant 1/16s

[@gabe1655]

okay

[@cristianpinete6041]

Sooo like can you show us how you tune your snare 👀👀🤧

[@AMDpc067]

Cristian Pinete top head loose bottom head tight.

[@XeRo333]

I tend to always have trouble with the intro...when music starts to build up and then on the drums it goes hats, hats, kick, kick, kick, snare, snare, snare. I know that's a terrible way to explain it thru a message but after that part I tend to get the rest of it pretty solid

[@davidsury391]

Please do a tutorial on guitar on a song Find me - Bethel music

[@CiaoGibson]

Wonderful A+ Thx for posting.

[@austincox1709]

does he just always play on the back of the beat or is the met ahead? either way great drummer

[@eli.aguilar]

@WorshipU are those the 30th Anniversary Istabul hi-hats? Interested user.

[@joeytribiani2468]

Cool thanks

[@genxrev]

Just found this channel. As a new drummer I am in awe of what a resource it will be. Thanks. Newbie question, but why do you hold the sticks the way you do? (One of them held by the tip end...)

[@jackkovar7806]

More snare POW. Sometimes this is too much, and wood tip regular way around sounds the best for ride "ping"

[@genxrev]

Jack Kovar thanks. That makes sense.

[@bayronq]

WOW!!!!!!

[@analopezprado1706]

Bayron Cua nn

[@yaeleduardo8255]

Como le hace para que la tarola suene así?

[@Reuben_Lalnunzira]

omg how will i get that snare sound??

[@samjenner425]

How do you get that snare drum sound

[@marcodanielmartinez4972]

x2 hahaha

[@JaimeM2697]

Sam Jenner bottom is loose and the top is tight I think?

[@tallyphillips]

They use samples by Paul Mabury www.iwantthatsound.com/product/paul-mabury-signature-drum-sounds/

[@b0uGhTbYChrist]

The bottom head is super tight for sensitivity, the top is very very very loose. Just past finger tight. Use a Remo O ring to control the overtones. Also having a 14x8 snare really helps

[@andrewpendleton4856]

They definitely don't use samples. That's a real snare sound

[@kevinsilitonga205]

Not a church drummer but that snare tho.. considerably ph4t.

[@JaimeM2697]

can you do Lazarus next?

[@randomontario4414]

So whats the normal speed?

[@danielfoster635]

Hey, is it craviotto drums you use in this video?

[@dominicknoll7398]

[@bensushchik8401]

As a drummer of 15 years it sounds like a Ludwig Black Beauty 14x8 snare

[@heathhoglund3553]

That’s how all snares should sound...

[@benjaminohzhixian594]

Hi where can we get the backing track with the click?

[@WorshipU]

You can get at multitracks.com

What mics he is using??

@Justys Frank I don’t even remember writing this comment 😂 but I agree now

[@crazymelvis5877]

@@DGodsell 4 years later, haha.

[@JaimeM2697]

quick question why do you use the back end of the stick for the snare?

[@Edrums326]

Jaime Morales ^^^

[@jimmyscott9720]

Jaime Morales When I was in Davids drum lessons at WorshipU, he and Bethel's sound engineer Chris Greely said that it gives the snare a bit of a beefier and more balanced tone than using the skinnier tip of the stick. I personally do it and I've noticed a huge difference in snare tone. Hope that helps!

[@MegaAlexnz]

Yeah you can def' hear it when he alternates between left and right on the 16ths.

[@OwenAssman]

CHRIS GREELY WAS AT THAT SESSION?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

[@jimmyscott9720]

Owen Assman haha not at the same session. David said it in one of his drum lessons and I was talking drums /guitar with Chris and Michael Pope at school the one day!

[@jaronburkhardt7050]

I see that you're using an RE20 on the floor. What mics are you using on the snare and tom 1?

[@HunterShawMusic]

Looks like Shure 545's

[@jonathans5725]

Why is one stick the right way up and the other is upside down

[@JoeyXD57]

It gives the snare a more fat and warm tone

[@Reuben_Lalnunzira]

This song is so hard to place it perfect in the pocket i notice even David had slight issues in a few places

[@eudesbarber]

Nice hi hat

[@rosanaronchi510]

muito louco

[@AaronLevyDrums]

7:53-8:12 No tom section? Missed Fill?! That's why live versions of the song are so much better!

[@jimmybak6728]

I hope you realize that there isn't just one drummer who plays everything. Bethel usually has another drummer playing bigger floor toms and auxiliary. Also that fill you're talking about requires three different tom pitches but his setup only has two. So...he technically didn't miss the fill. :)

[@AaronLevyDrums]

Totally aware of this. And there is a fill he missed going into the instrumental section before the last chorus, it's on the original version. But whatever, to each his/her own.

[@jimmybak6728]

yeah idk maybe hes trying to make this tutorial as simple as possible

[@AaronLevyDrums]

@Nicholas Kayban as your opinion is irrevelant to me.

[@DRUMISTAAKO]

snare tuning please? :) Are you using any trigger for the snare drum?

[@josicx2507]

officialworshipdrummer.tumblr.com/post/139458305510/for-all-those-who-need-that-bethel-snare-sound

[@joshraushofficial]

or you just tune it like you want and throw a Big Fat Snare Drum on it.

[@josephgarcia2333]

why does he hold one stick backward?

[@AaronLevyDrums]

More attack on the snare. Mike Portnoy does the same thing.

[@natanaelknabben]

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaa me dá uma agonia de ouvir esses beat do metronome correndo na frente, ou as vezes atrás. O David é um baterista brutal, mas alguma coisa rolou ai, ou ele não tava num dia bom, ou o editor do vídeo avacalhou hahaha mas da uma agonia ouvir essas "atrasadas e corridas".

[@joeytribiani2468]

Why do you hold your right stick upside down?

[@Edrums326]

Joseph Gonzalez gives the snare that extra "phatness"! Works well in the low tunings.

[@AaronLevyDrums]

No it gives it more "attack" Phatness just naturally comes from the snare. Even Mike portnoy uses the same method. Thicker end of the stick + imbalance of the weight = more force moving forward for a heavier attack.

[@skippym5932]

Is this a lesson for beginning drummers?

[@QuIaTcHoN29]

whats the bpm of the click?

[@the_mattkang]

90 bpm in eight notes, I believe. So it sounds like 180 clicks per minute. Hope that helps!

[@adrn0104]

Why does he play with one stick backwards

[@isaiahharrison6732]

Pings to get a fatter sound from the snare

[@disc_golfing_with_d]

Why do you hold one of you sticks backwards with the butt of the stick?

[@andresnava6872]

Bethel snare > Elevation Everytime.

[@HardRockinJohnny]

Are there different versions of this song that I don't know about? I ask , because I am listening to Big Daddy Weave and the bass drum groove is not what you are showing here at all.

[@joshrose5223]

John Fitzpatrick yes , bethel does a version

[@randysaludes4163]

Live Sunday Worship venicelion.com/nh/music2018/nh-9-23-2018/The_Lion_and_the_Lamb.mp3 my interpretation or what I threw in to the song. ha ha. I post Sunday Worship songs at VeniceLion.com/nh I'm working on using double bass pedals now more and more instead of beating on the floor toms. I have a quiet kit 1962 Rogers Holiday Jazz 4 piece (built in Cleveland Ohio and mellow sounding) with 20 inch bass drum and 14 inch floor tom and 12 inch wing tom so toms not loud and it took me 50 years to get the bass drum to sound real good. Holiday toms have built in adjustable mufflers which keeps them mellow. Bass drum using a Remo power stroke 3 got it dialed in finally. Of course like Greg Laurie said "Sheep are stupid", the music is to loud or the music is not loud enough. Thankful to be working with a good crew on guitar, bass, piano that can work it out to back up the singing. Still using the 1962 Rogers power tone snare with adjustable muffler, hidden snare bed, Remo pin stripe head with an addition of a muffler strip of cloth under the head stretched between the two top lugs under the Remo logo. Snare only has 8 lugs.

[@johnstrandell]

Playing wayyy behind the click

[@HunterShawMusic]

All about that pocket

[@Miffchief]

Totally agree Hunter..It allows him to bring feel and emotion to the groove! Brilliant I say! :)

[@slyham35]

I don't know about that...The click is a subdivided click meaning there is twice as many clicks as a normal click would have. So, we are hearing 1 and 2 and 3 and 4 and. Most click tracks only have the "regular" clicks on 1, 2, 3, 4.

[@asaffigueiras]

What nonsense are you saying Ben? John is right. You're either on the click or you're not. There's no in between.

[@bluesstylee411]

Asaf what nonsense are YOU saying? bahaha Im not even a drummer and I know that there definitely is deviation from being right on top of the click for feel LOL watch this, one minute mark ;) kzbin.info/www/bejne/j5mbgXSKqq6ShLc

[@keziasheen1711]

0:48 he's holding one stick upside down

he does that for tone

why is cant he play in time lmao?

bruh he is doing that on purpose to add energy

[@austincox1709]

bruh his ride is louder than his crashes

[@kizzleteen]

Is no one gonna comment about the sticks? It bothers me so much.

[@isaiahharrison6732]

he plays with one stick on the butt end to get a fatter sound when he hits his snare. it definitely changes the sound and i love doing it when i play haha

[@MixChecks]

THANK YOU. I thought I was the only one. I can't explain why it bothers me though lol.

[@-jijiyo-8825]

Less is more. :)

[@austinhowell7074]

Hard to focus when you're so far behind the click.

[@Miffchief]

Dave is sitting in the pocket, grooving with the song. Allows him to bring feel and emotion to the song. Nothing wrong with it at all! :)

[@pork5129]

Ben Garnham you’re so wrong

[@isaiahharrison6732]

i think it was an editing issue...but idk he seems on time for me

[@pork5129]

@@isaiahharrison6732 He is NOT on time with the click. He might be exactly the same amount of time behind the click every time, so in that case it would be an editing issue. He is playing in time with himself but not with the click.

[@jairgonzz]

Why does it feel like you're behind the click?? Is it on purpose? Also y'all need to stop that edge of the rim stuff lol

[@asmallpug]

jairgonzz yes he's playing on the back end of the click, knowing how to play on the front and back end of a click track is literally one of the greatest skills you can develop as a drummer

[@ARDrummer]

I would say that whoever edited the video together didn't line up his drums to the click/track exactly right...you can tell he is consistent, so I think it was an editing issue.

[@jonathanwack2699]

Which sticks do you use?
