Tungska Butterfly Quote: I'm working on a rhythm that is 7/8 (toms) over 5/8(snare, hihat) over a triplet figure (bass drum) in 4 over 4 (hihat pedal). Of course, I really haven't gotten past 7/8 over 5/8 yet, but I can do triples in four over 5/8 and 7/8... I hope that made sense. *weep* crying All those numbers hurt my head! I've only ever played in 7/8 on one song ... and it was on the piano ... and it was still crap crying
Aww, don't think that way. Odd times just take practice. Besides, if you practice odd times enough, you begin to feel how all those times feel. For instance, 7/8 is kind of laid back, 5/8 is driving or pushing, 15/16 is nearly waltz like, with a sort of kick to it. Just start simple (like 5/4) and move up from there. What I find helps on the piano is to have an ostinato bass line to keep the rhythm steady. When you get used to the ostinato, you can keep it in your mind when you're playing free.

Piercing_Light Drum_Master_T How to explain tripple backsticking... ummmm, its used in triplet form and each hit is followed by a flip/twist sort of thing. I'll look for an example I think i saw someone do it on Vic Firth.com. It can be used in singles, 1 hit on 1 hand and doubles on the non-flipping hand, and doubles on each hand- (VERY hard to play fast doubles this way) You must be a drumcorps student. *sigh* luckyyyyy..... Yeah, there is no real drumcorps stuff around central oregon. I wish I could have gotten into it. Although I know of one person.... hm.... Vic Firth is an amazing learning resource for percussionists. In fact, I'm thinking of only buying their sticks because of what they do for the drumming community. Except, some of the artists they feature are not very good... Have you ever tried that... north west east south... sticking... thing? Marco Minnemann does it in his DVD. Nope, not drumcorps yet, but this summer yeah i'll finally get to do it!!! I'm pretty sure i'll do well, I'm the head tenor for my schools marching band even though i'm only a sophmore! Hmmm NWES sticking i've never heard of it but i'll pick up the dvd sometime might as well anyways... Hey i found a link to the triple backsitcking thing! All you drummers take note this is impressive i've wowed so many people just by my doing this fast!!!! go to This link! Look at his three-way-backsticking lesson and also his overview and demonstartion to see how cool you can get your stick tricks to get!! Good luck!
