Linear half time shuffle groove and lick drum lesson

[MikeLevitsky]

Thanks. I shoot these with my Iphone. Not the best camera, but with out it I would have no lessons up. I also have a tenancy to teach things I am excited about which means things I have not completely mastered, things I myself am working on. It keeps me excited about teaching and lets people know that everyone good or bad has to work to learn new things. Thanks again for the support.

Great lesson, I got this much easier than I am the (Purdy) (Porcorro) Shuffle. I am having a really hard time with those. Can you do a lesson on them. Thanks!!! Dude you are awesome!!!

[MikeLevitsky]

@opachopa Thanks for letting me know. I am also working on getting music up for you to download on all my other videos as well. It should all be up by the end of the week.

@arturo20mex Ya man I said that on the video at the end. But thanks for the backhanded complement. :)

@q3playing I will post the sheet music today with the sticking. That should help you to figure it out. I will work on finding a better camera angle.

[Robt]

Great lesson, could you do a quick one on building speed on double strokes?

[MikeLevitsky]

@Robt7605 I have started a series on half-time shuffle that should help you out. Have fun.

[arturomex]

that's steve gadd's 32 linear fill not your linear version of a shuffle but it's quite cool cool drumming

[MikeLevitsky]

@Robt7605 I could do that. how fast can you play doubles now? I can try to help you get to the next level.

Hi Mike,

Your high tom is blocking the view. Can't really see what your left hand is doing...

[tookurjaerbs]

hahah Doesn't it seem more difficult to break it down slowly?

@drumennut Mike, do you have an email?
