Drumming Lessons DVD: Be Prepared For Any Musical Situation

By Kyle Ayanbadejo

Are you looking into purchasing a full drum set? There are a number of models and brands of full drum kits to choose from for the beginner, intermediate, and professional. You can find acoustic drum sets that are fairly cheap in price to expensive high quality kits. Before purchasing, check out the determining factors regarding the reasons for acquiring a drum set.

The "next day" came, and soon it was my turn to see how fast I could play. I did my best and was completely shocked when I ended up winning with a "score" of 905 singles in 60-seconds (with absolutely no practice, and no idea "how or what" I was doing). Nevertheless, winning put me in the northeast regional finals elimination round - 3 weeks later at the Berklee College of Music in Boston.

It is important to distinguish between the front and back of the drums. There are two large drumheads that come with every drum set which need to be seated on each of the two brass drums. This seating should start with the back head followed by the front head.

Electronic drum sticks have built-in speakers and pre-recorded tunes. When they hit any surface, they create a unique, crashing sounds. A cool red LED (Light Emitting Diode) is placed at the tip of each drumstick. Using these drum sticks, you can create fine music without a full set of drums. Electronic drumsticks are very popular among kids who love the sounds they produce.

The first step in developing a solo, an important ingredient that would need to be addressed, is the proper execution of rudiments. Are your single strokes, doubles, paradiddles, rolls, flams, and so on, played well? You will want to execute these smoothly and with precision. It will present the difference of being a beginner or professional drummer.

Isolate your feet and practice nothing but them for extended periods of time. Play the samba bass drum rhythm "allot". That's always been a good one for getting your right foot in shape

This problem can be remedied if you will make the commitment to really focus on building your bass drum skills of the next several weeks. As you practice, try to incorporate some unique pedal work into everything you play. Also, spend time daily developing your bass drum technique. Continue to do this until you are comfortable playing in all settings. Once you have reached this point you have acquired an important ability that will serve you well throughout your musical career.
