3 Tricks To Make Your Beats Awesome - Easy Beginner Drum Lesson | Drum Beats Online

Here are 3 easy beginner tricks to make your drum beats awesome!

It's been quite some time since I've done a straight up beginner drum lesson. So I decided to get back to basics and show you some ways to improve your beats and start getting more creative! I hope this helps you!

Lets be friends!

You are hands down the best teacher for beginners! Most other drummers present information assuming we know what they're talking about and cover concepts too quickly. You break down the beats slowly and use visuals which is the only way I've been able to learn! Keep the videos coming! I already purchased your ultimate guide for beginners and would love to see an intermediate package in the future! Thanks

Great as usual Gabe. I'm thinking the Ultimate Beginner Drum Lesson is must have.

Great as always. Bringing the sheet/notation really helps!

Gabe, great lesson, it really help us to change our beats, I really love to throw some diddles here and there, maybe on the hats or as ghost notes on the snare, it also works great on this matter. Blessings, bro, thank you so much and, as always, keep it up!

I'm learning a lot from all your videos! You're an excellent drummer. By the way my favorite trick was the bass

very good! I would recommend watching Benny Greb's DVD's if you haven't already. Or if you watched them a long time ago, re-watch them. I am currently watching his DVD on the language of drumming and it is so interesting how he goes into detail with drumming and specifically rhthym. I watched a TEDx talk on maths being taught as a language which is also interesting but now Benny Greb talks about drumming as a language. He has a system of Binary and Ternary letters and each letter is a certain variation of fractions of the bar. Eg. A is 1/4 of the bar. It is the 1st note, so you go Click, rest, rest rest; click, rest, rest, rest... U is Ternary and is therefore out of 3. It is 2/3, with the 2 notes at the last 2 spaces. So it is rest, click, click; rest, click, click... He approaches rhthym threw a whole new way and he is honestly amazing. It can only better your knowledge and make you an even better drum teacher. Keep it up Gabe, I respect your passion for drumming. Thank you for you hard work, it is much appreciated amongst many drummers, even if they may not say so in the comments, I am sure they learn new things in different ways each time you teach. Stay awesome, keep keeping on and enjoy your day

Great videos! Your explanations are very clear and understandable (since English is my second language). And I just started so it helps. A LOT.

Kind of a stupid question but since I'm here... I'm just starting with drums and I have a problem with counting.
I do everything just by hearing stuff and it comes out better. So I'm wondering if this will still work out when I progress in drumming or should I just go through with excruciating counting now, when I'm only just beginning? :)

Thank you!

I know you posted this 4 years ago but this was really helpful. Thanks :D

Awesome Man, Can you make a I
Advanced Ghost Note Lesson?

[lobbyrobby]

I'll try this. I'm a beginner so moving the snare to beat 3 will throw me of. It's always 2 and 4 lol. Well sometimes I'll add it on every down beat or the & of 4. I struggle moving the kick drum to something other than 1, 3 and the & of 3.
