    Another thing Rob is doing here that he didn’t mention, but is super cool and important is: notice that throughout the fills he continued time with the hi hat. I think a lot of us go into a fill and everything else just kind of stops. It makes a huge difference that he plays these fills while the high hat continues on two and four! Git it Beatdown!

    I really like the camera view As opposed to seeing straight on , you can see his hands better. Just watching hands. Wrists, fingers is a lesson in itself that you see proper comfortable form. How little movement or how large movements are where they happen and why. Plus I'm always amazed at the comping and how it stays fluent buts always changing like a conversation or creative dialogue / monologue.

    Rob, this lesson is exceptional for someone at my level. I’m a mediocre drummer (at best) that recently decided to start studying jazz drumming. I’ve been working on independence exercises and basic grooves, but was kind of lost when it came to fills. Now I have something to work on that isn’t too intimidating, but will still take a lot of practice to perfect. And the FRL FRL one helped me find a weak spot with my independence while trying to maintain the 2 and 4 on the hats. You have become my favorite drum teacher on KZread. Thank you for providing this content. Cheers!

    I realize that alot of this type of content on your channel is geared at helping beginner/intermediate drummers get the feel of different type of techniques. I've been playing almost 33 years and I FUCKING WATCH THESE, of course I usually already know the concept you're going to be teaching. In many cases, I've been doing it for years and years. The reason why I watch them is for two reasons. Actually 3. the first is, sometimes you drop a gold nugget I've never even heard of, which is worth watching just for that. 2. You often have an entertaining, matter of fact approach to explanation that helps even long-time drummers gain new perspective on some of the stuff that we know, but haven't really thought of from the perspective you're showing, and any drummer who's been playing more than 1 day will know how valuable a fresh perspective is on the kit... and LASTLY, your demonstrations are so expertly done that EVEN IF there's no gold nugget, and EVEN IF your approach is from a similar perspective as how I approach whatever it is, that the expertise and professionalism and quality along with that beat down feeling is literally worth the watch. Also, I guess a bonus reason is when you occasionally get a little off topic and drop some new perspective on something different than the exercise at hand, which is always welcome. Keep up the good work.
