Brian Roe - D Beat - The original - Brian Roe

This is how to play D beat.

[DBeatDad]

This was definitely pure & cymbal.

Drumming has had 4 great enlightenments:
1. 4 on the floor
2. D-beat
3. Dale Crover's minimalism
4. Zach Hill's maximalism.

My favourite beat to play. The first time i ever picked up the sticks this was the beat I went for naturally without even knowing what dbeat was at the time. I was crap at it but I kept going n going and now, years later I’ve got it down and still love playing it. Can do it about 180bpm and maybe 200 on a good day. 👊🏻

You're a legend. Thank you for the D beat.

[arwaldc]

Thank you for your contribution and influence to punk and crust \m/ and black metal and whatever other genres d beat made an influence in!

[timezoner]

Thanks for creating the most awesome and effective beat on the planet. You have inspired the masses.

[millysharktipsclipstricks]

Thank you for your contribution to punk rock.

[jagerbomb]

I've been playing this style since I was a kid and never knew there was a name for it

[евгенийшалумов]

I like his words at the end about simplitude: Punk was always simple. Punk is a capasity to make totaly g r e a t things really simple. in other words; to make a simple things - gorgeous

[jermyhopkisn]

I quite like it with the hi-hat for some variation and emphasis but this is great to see.

[varukerbrains]

Good stuff 22Fotiu - It's a simple beat that when played right, sounds awesome. There are bands that call them selves "D-Beat Bands" who get it wrong!
Keep it simple, effective and strong.

[riseandshine]

About time this got clarified. Much respect for you.

[syncdi]

I love you Brian. Thank you for your d-beats in the Varukers!

[joelmiranda]

Many beats came from this usage. There no one way to play it but it is the single most imitated beat in the history of the genre

[Vinnay]

Some Grindcore bands like Terrorizer use D-beat drumming as well.

[mkiswatoo]

D-beat: John Maher from the Buzzcocks in 1977 or so.

[JanderVK]

Thank you for your contribution... to the sport of cricket! ;)... Kidding, thanks for the music man! 

[mirapilates]

The drummer of Swedish band Mob 47 has played a sped up version of d beat that I have never been able to duplicate on drums.

[varukerbrains]

best punk drummer i ever did see. Go! Go! Maniac - Senri Kawaguchi

[ThePunkmar]
