Practice today was in my shed with my trusty real feel practice pad and my vic firth Thomas Lang signature sticks. As you can see they have endured quite a few rimshots… drums #drummer #drumnosis #doublepedal #bassdrum #doublebassdrum #drumfam #drummerslife #drumteacher #drumlessons #drumstagran #drumsharing #mapexdrums #sabiancymbals #pearlpedals #teacher #teaching #vicfirthsticks #practice #practicing #moellertechnique #stickcontrol #constantreleasetechnique #garychaffee #lineardrumming #garychafeepatterns @sabiancymbals @sabian_uk @mapexuk @mapexdrums @vicfirth @pearl.unitedkingdom @pearl_drums (at Drumnosis Drum Tuition) https://www.instagram.com/p/CdOGxfejm5C/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
Some open-close technique for you. Now that I have acquired a lovely new iPhone I thought I’d try some shot in shot exclamation so you can see up close what I practice. This technique has really loosened my hands up. 15 minutes a day every day. drums #drummer #drumnosis #doublepedal #bassdrum #doublebassdrum #drumfam #drummerslife #drumteacher #drumlessons #drumstagran #drumsharing #mapexdrums #sabiancymbals #pearlpedals #teacher #teaching #vicfirthsticks #practice #practicing #moellertechnique #stickcontrol #constantreleasetechnique #garychaffee #lineardrumming #garychafeepatterns @sabiancymbals @sabian_uk @mapexuk @mapexdrums @vicfirth @pearl.unitedkingdom @pearl_drums (at Drumnosis Drum Tuition) https://www.instagram.com/p/CdJATuzslKE/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
A or B! Here are two short outtakes from a recent practice session. I’m working on groups of 9 in triplets. Three beat fills extended into short solos. Which is your favourite? Why?

This is a video of hitting the drum at the fastest speed at the moment to check if the drum can be moved comfortably and comfortably according to the structure of the body. The thing that can be moved easily = speed. We have found many improvements and issues for the future. The 2021 New Year has a good start. We will deepen our research and sophistication.
Version 1 or version 2? This is a little 32nd note groove I’m experimenting with. I like both versions but I’m leaning towards the double hi hat version. What do you think? #drums #drummer #drumnosis #doublepedal #bassdrum #doublebassdrum #drumfam #drummerslife #drumteacher #drumlessons #drumstagran #drumsharing #mapexdrums #sabiancymbals #pearlpedals #teacher #teaching #vicfirthsticks #practice #practicing #moellertechnique #stickcontrol #constantreleasetechnique #garychaffee #lineardrumming #garychafeepatterns (at Drumnosis Drum Tuition) https://www.instagram.com/p/CVsnGjGsnbv/?utm_medium=tumblr
Linear experiments!! 7,3,3,3 with shifting accents on the snare. It’s amazing how much a seemingly simple accent shift transforms the whole pattern into an entirely different feel. I think shifting the snare accents has the most profound effect on the feel and groove. I may change my mind on that though 😂😂. Enjoy!! #drums #drummer #drumnosis #doublepedal #bassdrum #doublebassdrum #drumfam #drummerslife #deathmetal #blackmetal #drumteacher #drumlessons #drumstagran #drumsharing #mapexdrums #sabiancymbals #pearlpedals #teacher #teaching #vicfirthsticks #practice #practicing #moellertechnique #stickcontrol #constantreleasetechnique #garychaffee #lineardrumming #garychafeepatterns (at Rockbottom Music Croydon) https://www.instagram.com/p/CQTCYW0soe_/?utm_medium=tumblr
A little more of the fusion tune Denis by CAB. In the section I’m coming out of the chorus and into the keyboard solo. You’ll see a lot more of the linear phrasing I’ve been working on in the section. I composed the pattern around The hits played in the head. The bass drum plays the hits and I construct a different linear pattern groupings and accents around it. #drums #drummer #drumnosis #doublepedal #bassdrum #doublebassdrum #drumfam #drummerslife #deathmetal #blackmetal #drumteacher #drumlessons #drumstagran #drumsharing #mapexdrums #sabiancymbals #pearlpedals #teacher #teaching #vicfirthsticks #practice #practicing #moellertechnique #stickcontrol #constantreleasetechnique #garychaffee #lineardrumming #garychafeepatterns (at Drumnosis Drum Tuition) https://www.instagram.com/p/CTFP6ujAs0V/?utm_medium=tumblr
One of my students asked I’m how he can apply the #moellertechnique to a groove... so here’s a little 4th of July breakbeat! . . . . #pearldrums #evansdrumheads #VicFirth #DrumMuff #drumstagram #drumlesson #drumsharing #instadrummer #zildjian #drumminglife #drumeo #drumsdaily #zildjiancymbals #drumlife #rudiments #drumsdrumsdrums #drumvideo #drummersofinstagram #drummunity #drumporn #drummer #drums #pearl_drums #trap #trapbeats (at Loganville, Georgia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CCOYUg-nfgt/?igshid=1b7aa6bn5gswn
