How to Use Right Hand & Left Hand Techniques on Drums

Video Transcript

Hello my name is James Colonna from Cherry Hills Studios on behalf of Expert Village. Now we're going to talk about right hand and left hand lead and how they differ from natural sticking. So if I'm playing a pattern without accents and I want a certain part to pop out but I'm playing that natural sticking and natural sticking like I said is just alternate sticking but it's you know I'm playing consistently 16 notes whole way through. (drumming) Okay now if I want this pattern (drumming) I'm having to do a lot of extra motion there to be able to get that sound out of here. That's what I want to hear everything else is kind of a irrelevant so by doing the natural sticking I'm having to do a little bit more motion and your kind of getting a little more flashier, to make it easier you can do a series of duh a pas and duh a duhs and just basically play right hand lead. So every accent of that is going to be played with a right hand (drumming) which sounds exactly same way as (drumming) exactly the same way as that so everything relates to each other everything is exactly the same way that it needs to be and by understanding these differences you can get yourself a lot more creativity. Especially when you start playing drumset or you know a set of drums with motion evolved.
