Wow.www I didn't know there was already a Topic on this: - My apology Bros (just saw it)
Bro Caijunlong - fill-ins?, Bro Gambatak - how does one start out learning/experimenting with a new genre. Bro Marcdadrummer - accenting studies? Bro Frummer - Applying rudiments on the Drumset....are all somehow within what is being laid out by Bro rla as per below for Topic X.
Looking at it - I wonder if we could cover at least just 2 of the below Topics...Accenting by itself incorporating Single or Double Strokes (alot already - can make a solo also when applying it on a Drum set), will most likely lead-on to accenting using both single & doubles which include the basic rudiments of Paradiddles Groups (say about other Rudiments all making up of Single & doubles) - This by itself is a huge Topics. On top of this accenting knowledge - incorparate it into a Rythmn Pattern ...can comes up with something like experiecing with some new genre (as you fuse it)....as can be seen - they are link in a way somehow or another even - Jazz Style mentioned by Bro rla below - add in the Double Bass - Kekekeke you get Fusion with all the above....
Now I headache liao lah......too little time - too many things. It goes to show that we can only do at most 2 Topic most probably from the listed topics (since we have only 4 hours - and need some time for free & easy stuffs Q & A Session etc).....added to this - we now have 30 over Drummers from soft here - Sharing means everyone show what thet know, and take-in knowledge from others at the same time - I really wish we have the luxury of time here - unfortunately we do not have it - therefore there need to be a 2nd and a 3rd after this meet-up (if everything goes well).....so lets try to bring it down to 2 to 3 Topic only - Starting from maybe - a stage by stage process so that everyone can benefit (not only now) but as they get together for the 2nd one - and the 3rd and so on and so forth - as it advances........meaning Jazz and African/Latin/Brazilian/ Songo hopefully will not be discuss in our 1st meet-up (I do understand each and everyone of us are all at different stages of drumming - some Beginners, some intermediate and some advance level of drumming) - but I also feel it will benefit alot of us here if we start off from the basic - as Drumming can only be good as we all progress - provided the Basic Is Set Right (this can correlate to Basic Drumming Techniques be it in Accenting singles, doubles, Rudiments, hi-hats, riding a cymbal, crashing cymbals, double bass - many more)....but I'm not saying we are doing this - Just that there must be a Stage by Stage Process from those listed here from easy to very tough ones - we start somewhere, but not the tough one lah
What do you think? - It's just my own personal opinion - no offence to anyone....If I did, it was not intentional, just my thoughts.....
cheers...Eric
As Bro rla mention - "Anymore ideas before we start to narrow topics down?"
