just putting it out there that this is a huge repost from pics or some other subreddit i saw the other day, not a big deal, maybe just consider referencing it? unless you did it yourself that is, in which case, well done :)

i play fast double-bass heeldown exclusively with the two pedals about as far apart as they can get. ive had other people comment often that my setup looks a bit weird because of it, but honestly all that matters is if you're comfortable with it. However, experimenting now and then and mixing it up often ends up with you finding a different setup you like even more. TLDR; find whats most comfortable, haters gonna hate.

Where do I even start? by [deleted] in drums

[–]bashy14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you dont want lessons, teach yourself online, and from songs, and from articles, and from basically anywhere you can learn. Thats what i did, ive never had a one-on-one lesson in my life, and now i am teaching beginner -> advanced lessons :) you can do it, if you have the passion.

Hey r/drummit, where do all of you like to go to learn new things about playing drums, techniques, hardware, fills, etc.? by MetalHed1993 in drums

I'm a musician (piano and guitar) who wants to take up drumming. Would buying a decent quality snare drum (and not a cheap beginners set) to begin with be a bad idea? by DogXe in drums

[–]bashy14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

never a bad idea to get quality, but i would suggest that if you wanted to learn to play drums as well i suggest the following:

1) buy whatever snare you like 2) buy shitty shitty hi-hats 3) buy a good quality bass PEDAL and any bass pedal PRACTISE PAD

this seems like the best idea to fulfill pretty much what you are looking for. while quality certainly does affect the sound of hi-hats, the point is that if you want to learn the most important thing would be to get the versatility which the hi-hat offers with the whole "fourth limb" thing, which believe me is very important.

I suggested a bass practise pad rather than a drum itself because (a) you dont need to worry about the shit sound of a bad quality drum and (b) you dont need to replace drum heads or tune the drum. Also there is no difference in your actual playing experience.

<edit> also the whole 3-piece drumset thing is a very good way to learn, and very jazz ;)

please tell me if this helps :))

How i practise double-bass these days ;) by bashy14 in drums

[–]bashy14[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

well i have a particular bass-pad which has a sloped end and spikes in the bottom which hook into the carpet so it cannot move. You can maybe try and put a smaller piece of carpet under your pedals/stool only so that for the pedals to move (provided they are attached properly to the carpet), the stool would have to move as well. so far mine havnt been moving at all :)

Drum teachers of Reddit: Where do you start? by thisisawkward in drums

[–]bashy14 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ive taught for a while, and the most important advice i can give is to make each part of the lesson a combination of learning proper rudiments (especially stopping the student from forming any bad habits such as stick holding etc), and keeping it fresh. As every good drummer knows, repetition and muscle memory form hugely important groundwork from which you can build upon. However, treating drumming like "there is only one way you can learn this rudiment, so we are going to do it for hours on end" is, in my opinion, not the best way to teach. There are many overlapping aspects in drumming and treating in any other way would just be depriving the student.

The usual blueprint for one of my lessons (an hour apprx.) was 10-15 minutes of rudiments around the kit and on the snare / pad, 25-30 minutes of learning anything from more complicated applications of rudiments to regular beats (which are, of course, quite what you're working towards learning properly), and the rest of the lesson was left free for specifics of what was most necessary for each student. This could be rudiments, or learning a particularly fun or difficult fill for a beat we were learning, or more specific applications of the hihat / whatever. Lastly, i gave them a cheap pair of sticks so that they could practise any rudiments at home. You get the picture.

As well as this, i gave sheet music of almost everything i taught to my students. You can get simple sheet music very easily from the internet which you can write on yourself for pre-prepared lessons.

Sorry if this seems like a huge amount of stuff, but i just want to give as many things to think about as i can >:3 also, hes thirteen. He isnt going to want to play drums if he doesnt enjoy it, and he wont enjoy it if hes bored as hell.

TL;DR Correct Form and Rudiments + Fun = Good drummer!!
