Hindsight is 20/20, so here are my 12 best tips I’d give to my beginner self. If you’re a beginner drummer, please listen closely because these are huge pieces of advice that helped my playing ability a ton over the years. If you’re a drumming veteran, tell me in the comments which of these tips you feel have been most influential for you.
Even though this video is designed to help beginner and intermediate players the most, I can’t say that some of the topics touched on aren’t deep and fairly challenging! However, take these to heart as best you can, and work on implementing some of these techniques and mindsets in your practicing and performing. Let these tips become habits so that you don’t even have to think about them.
We’re talking about tuning, bass drum technique, muffling, hand technique, improvisation, listening, fill creation, “what is great feel?” and more. Enjoy, and be sure to check out these videos and playlists referenced in today’s video for more info.
