I am a 58 year young dude who hasn't played a kit in 40 years. Sunday I picked up a 5 piece kit and have watched hundreds of videos. It is now Thursday and I found your channel. Hands down this is the BEST video that I have seen for new drummers like myself. Thank you! I liked and I subscribed! I will be checking out way more on your channel.
im 102 years old, my nephew brought his drums over and now im learning the drums because of this video, awesome teacher thanks.

lol no pointless explanation? straight to the point? Actual drum starts at 5:10 🤣🤣🤣
Im 261 years old and I just bought my first drum kit I'm looking forward to learning the drums with your videos, thx mate!

55 year-old beginner here... I truly appreciate your content. Very helpful. On point. You are appreciated, Rob... Big time!
just turned 55 and my 14 year old daughter picked up lead guitar her friend plays bass, they asked me to learn drums. Garage band is born, I'm not so nervous now, thanks for what you give because I definitely owe you one.
Have fun rocking
Give those drums a good whipping. Teach it a lesson😂😂
Yo I'm just turned 12 and me and my friends won't to start a band thx good help bro

Teach those kids how to rock!!
I’m a guitar, flute, and piano player for over ten years. I just started playing drums 6 months ago after picking up a gretsch energy kit at a really good price. Since then I’ve fallen in love with playing drums and experimenting with recording techniques and sounds in a studio environment. Just want to say that I consistently come back to your videos because they’re fantastic and that you’ve taught me some really good techniques and tips as I’ve been learning on my own. Cheers!
Need an update here cause I resonate well with op's comment. Just picked up a simmons e drum kit and been playing around on it for two months. And regarding the vid, its great for basics and a intermediate patterns, defo a good start with some musical knowledge behind ya!
I bought a pretty red energy kit about 3 years ago, still love it. I like it because it's not a hard hitting kit, it's better with nuance and precision.
@@xanlosgames6270 hey coming at you with an update! I still have the gretsch energy kit, but this past year I ended up finding a 90's made in England premier xpk kit with lacquer finished shells for 400 bucks on craigslist! Its in great shape and even came with decent hardware. It's become my main recording and practice kit. I'm still keeping the energy in case I ever need a spare kit in a different space and I currently have storage room for it. Unfortunately, last month I had a seizure and fell, dislocated my right shoulder and fractured my humerus where the tendon that allows me to lift my arm was anchored. Having surgery in a couple days, so hopefully I can get back to playing drums in the next several months as it heals. It sucks, but at least I've been able to play a bit of electric guitar without too much discomfort. I'm on anti seizure meds now, so hopefully it won't happen again. I know your comment was a while ago, but how are you doing on your drum/music journey!?
@@wesleyhughston5358 I really love my energy kick with the remo fiberskin felt tone reso head. It sounds really good when I record it using the electro voice re20. Perfect for lighter playing, but it still has a good impact when you dig in. Definitely far from a modern kick sound, but vintage in a way I like. Overall, it's a good kit for the price.
@@christophernoia5197 Holy hell I read that last part in your message, I hope you feel better asap! I kinda wrecked my left ring finger and havent been able to play the guitar without hurting and the same goes for drums and its been about a month or so now. Also I had to reinstall everything on my laptop (blue screen of death) and lost a ton of my music so Ive been kinda recoiling to having to restart pretty much. Im still using the simmons sd100 kit and had to re solder the connection cause the hi hat wasnt responding when I struck it, I thought about buying an acoustic kit and having my edrums as backup but Im not sure atm. Also, please be careful!
I really like when pros strip it back and give us little guys tips. Love the channel!
I sub you
Well said.

i played when i was a kid but its been forever and i just bought a kit again so im taking it back to some basics. Thanks for the videos!
same here, i played some acoustic drums from when i was around 2 years to 6 and i got a electric drumset today
Ditto. I am 66 and haven't touched a stick in 35 years, but (being a senior and asthmatic), I have pretty much been confined to my home for five months. I bought a new kit two months ago as a diversion, and Rob's videos have been invaluable in getting me to the point where I am no longer embarrassing myself.
It will keep you fit. If anything
Love all us ' oldies' playing drums , I myself am 51 and always wanted to drum but could never afford a kit . As a kid I built some drum Tom's from plastic tubs with a sellotape drum skin but now have some cheap electric drums . Loving the tuition, and my mrs says " hey you can play some beats " Result .
My mom was a drummer. My dad pawned her drums, so I built my own kit when I was a kid too.
I'm 70 and I've been playing the drum for such a long time. I think Rob " the boss " is wonderful in teaching and explaying how to play the drum. Being a good drummer means not only playing well but also teaching well. Thank you very much Rob . Stay safe and take Antonio from Italy
🥰
I started drumming last week and let me just say it's been a heck of a ride. Since then, my dog has died in a plane accident. I'm turning 60 next week and drumming for almost 3 decades now! YOU CAN DO IT!
This one made me laugh
I really don't see why anyone would give this video a thumbs down. From a beginner stand point, it gives me a great starting point on learning to play the drums. Great instructional video. Keep the help coming, you are great at it!
Well nowadays it’s as if no one gave it a thumbs down with the hidden dislikes.
Good
Especially helps with counting!! Just a terrific video :) Good luck on your playing!
I agree but he could’ve taught the beginner how to read basic sheet music (just the hi-hat, snare & bass) so they would immediately learn by reading a sheet instead of just numbers 1-4 and, well “and”s 😭
Fab. 20 minutes taught me more than a Covid lockdowns-worth of trial and error.
I am a blind beginning drummer! And thank you for explaining everything but I can understand it! Like you’re sitting there with me!
4 days since i found your channel and i am loving your teaching and your flow. Thank you very much for sharing your knowledge.
Thanks so much Rob... I used to play and now I got back into it and realized after watching your video that I was clueless for the basics but now with your tutorial I'm starting to get it a bit... Can't wait to watch the rest of your amazing videos... Thank you Rob
New drummer here. Perfect video for me. The graphics showing timing especially of the bass drum in blue really helped me. Thanks!
Spelling out and color coding the counts was pure genius on your end; thank you! It makes it a million times easier to read than rudiments
I’m 66, just bought my grandson’s kit. I’ve played guitar most of my life, I’ve always wanted to play drums, maybe now I will be able to do so, thanks!
The Doctor did it again!! I’ve been playing since sixth grade and learned to play on a “Drum Set”, “Drum Kit” playing these beats on my own. It is always refreshing to go back to basics and find those areas where you can pick out certain basic beats and build them into something beautiful just by listening to the basic structure or it’s foundation as the Great Doctor Brown has described here. Outstanding! Much appreciate this basic session to always go back to basics and check yourself. Love It!!
Hey Rob. Thank you for making these videos. Even though I consider myself an intermediate level drummer. I still remember watching your videos when I was a total newbie and I must say I learned a lot from you. Thanks again bro. Keep up all the good work.!
You are that (very rare) kind of teacher who can make learning easy & fun. You the man! Thanks for your video & wisdom.
So glad I found your channel, Rob. You teach and keep it moving without being drawn out or using fake enthusiasm. Just real. Thanks. I bought a used kit about 15 years ago, and only tooled around on it here and there. I'm 45 now and have a renewed interest in learning the drumming fundamentals and beyond. I'm looking forward to the journey. I'll be looking to your channel for guidance. Thanks again.
I like how you did the hi hat and kick first and then added the snare. It made it easier to comprehend what you were doing
Just started teaching myself drums on a little electric drum set in my little studio. I’m so happy I came across this resource, thank you!
I had drums around me most my life and padded around on them for years. I even did my own tracks but never thought of myself as a drummer. Then I started to watch beat down Brown and learned more in a few months than I had in all that time. Come to find out I'm really still a beginner when even though I breezed through the practices and then could not get past number 7 because I realize I almost always hit the base drum on the downbeat. Bad habits are hard to kick (no pun intended) but these gave me new goals to get my playing level up..I have been doing all your exercises and hand work and it's really improved my playing and feel quite a bit,.breaking it down like you do in such great consise ways is really great and super helpfull, you are my favourite KZhead teacher and greatly appreciated..now I got a get a shirt but I'm afraid I'm not ready for prime time just yet.
I am just starting
@@arthurbowman6195 I wish you the best of luck, this series of videos Rob puts out I think are some of the best simple and easy to follow. of course he makes it look easy cause he's great at it..but his ideas are so spot on as to how to get to where you want to go. I still think a beginner is going to benefit a lot from this, start with his other stick control videos etc to get up to speed for this one. Every great artist can tell you stories of starting out stumbling around like a toddler. The best is feeling that accomplishment of thinking you can never get there and one day you all of a sudden reach the next level of accomplishment. it's the fun of that journey thsts important.
@@chuckthebull I've seen a million kids at the store who go crazy on double bass but can't do any of this, particularly not in time...
@@windsofmarchjourneyperrytr2823 thanks dude...appreciate the encouragement. I work for a famous drummer as a roadie for awhile,,drumming is HARD to do well,, it really is an art like none other and a lot more to it then people think.. they think whats so hard you just hit shit with sticks.. but man without a good drummer there is no band (in the rock and rolish sense) I really have such a enhanced respect for them than ever,, even if they do drink all your beer and steal your girlfriend.
Hi Rob, I always took to the drums. Had a set since 2009 in the box. Just now set it up at 60 years old. Now I can finaly take your beginners lessons. I'm loving it. Thanks so much for taking time for us begginers.
YOU got it Sir. Thank You for "paying it forward" for all of us fellow drummers. Your skill-set = A+ awesome!
My guy!! This is absolutely amazing.. I am recovering from Aortic dissection OHS.. bought an Ludwig Evo kit from a dude, 6mos. old, and heads had never been tightened.. for $300 bucks!!! Nice Zildjian symbols and all.. I woke up from the coma feeling like a teenager again, I dabbled a little on a cb5000 kit as a teen.. I was looking around for a good tutorial on how to play for beginners. You, by far have the easiest to follow and clear informative instructional videos I have found. You get this, a lot, but thank you Man! I hit some dark patches trying to recover from my surgery.. trying to heal your breast plate back together isn't an easy task.. and that's just the bone. I had a nice kit thrown at me by the cosmos, I found you.. now I'm just happy healing brother, and jamming my ass off!!! It's good to be alive!!!!!!!!! Wish you all the best and wish you could all feel like I do right now! 🥁
Great job with this video. I am a new drummer, but an old bassist. Played bass for 35 years and got a wild hair to start playing drums.
I taught my 4 year old from this. He is now 5 and plays nicely...thanks
My nine year old son will greatly benefit from this video. He is a natural and will absorb this quickly! Thanks so much for the video much appreciated!
Its always good to go back to the basics. Thanks Rob!
Totally new drummer and totally new subscriber. thanks for making my first week of drumming much more fun with these beats to learn and practice. i love how you dont feel the need to show off your skills and you stick to helping us beginners out. So far love the channel thank you for teaching us how to drum better. Drums are so much fun
Tooi
I agree!
Thanks Rob! I had to stop at #7 and work it for an hour or so...finally tuned in to it! I will groove responsibly.
41 years playing, teaching. You have excellent timing. Timing is the key to playing. Simple or complex. They both sound good!!
I'm 44 year old beginner and this video has me down practicing any chance I can! I have the first 3 mastered...long way to go though!! Thank you for putting this together! 🤘🤘🙏🙏
Hey man. awesome vid. Straight to the point. 10 beats, no chattin. Just showing us how it’s done. Nice work!
Thank you, I mastered the first 7 perfectly but struggled with the last ones so I’m going to come back every day till I can do them!
Thanks Rob. Beginner bass player trying to learn to grove with a drummer and need to understand some beats. The way you presented it showing the kick rhythm made this very helpful.
Finally, new beats for us beginners, ROCK ON Rob!!! 🤘😝🤘
Drumming journey. Day 1. Made it to the second beat (no, it's not pretty, but it's there!) then I just jammed with that for a while and had an awesome time! I think you and me are gonna get along just fine Mr. Brown 😎 Thank you for doing this.
From Elementary thru High School drumming! Thanks for making me to pick the hobby up again now! Thanks for all the sore muscles and good techniques!
Love the channel! Simple and straightforward advice and tips. You don’t mess around with unnecessary stuff.
Congratulations Rob! A million views is quite an accomplishment. You are an incredible teacher. Keep up the GREAT work!!
Thanks a bunch for the encouragement! 👊🏽🙂
Just ordered my drum kit and I’m going to put them to good use practicing these beats that do fit into a lot of rock songs.
Thanks Rob! Versatile, universal, simple and fun. You're the best!
Thank you for posting your videos. I had my ideal pearl drum kit as a kid. I wanted to play so bad, but life happened, and I never learned to play. Drums have always been a passion in my life, and I have always regretted not learning to play. Now I'm 45 years old with a bucket list and an awesome used Yamaha kit and a dream. I found your videos you made it so easy to understand, so i was able to have productive practice. You taught me how to play and understand so many things it all just came together for me beautifully. I have a few songs I play well, and I feel comfortable and confident behind my kit. I have a long way to go, but I have come a long way in a short period of time. Thank you, Keep doing what you're doing!
Another great lessons! If we were paying attention we noticed that the kick drum leads the measure, and that the one beat (or the and of the one beat) is giving the band its anchor or foundation (THEY are counting on YOU). Beats 5 through 10 are money in the bank. Can't say enough good things about your teaching style! Love it! How about a blues (12 bar) lesson? And thanks for showing the benefit of playing with a metronome, very important for beginners and no embarrassment for pros.
Love it when the snare drops in 🙏👍👍
Tonny
I love your positivity and the fact that you can make the most cents.
You are the Man! Came from your tuning videos, now I’m watching these! Really making it too easy for use beginners to get started drumming! 🙏🏼
Beatdown, I've been doing all your stick exercises for months and finally got a little electronic kit. Playing along with this video was my first attempt at playing on a kit rather than a practice pad. And thanks to your super clear instructions, I rocked it!! Thank you for your amazing teaching.
Same here, I've scrolled through hundreds of videos on KZhead and Rob's is the easiest and simplistic by far. Also with the written commentary at the bottom of the video allows me to write this down on drum sheets so I can practice without watching the videos. 👏

The side snare threw me for a loop for a couple of seconds. I was thinking "Is that literally a free floating snare!?!" :)
Great lesson! I have paid for drum lessons and I they never went over these. It made me realize I have trouble on the ands unless followed by a 1 or a 3. Now that I know, I can work on it. Thanks so much!
This video was awesome brother. Thank you so much! As a beginner I loved it. My tutor just plays straight songs with me and never went over the fundamentals. You absolutely rock!
Rob you are an invaluable drum teacher! This is fantastic for us beginners! Thank you
Im just just a beginner. Thanks so much for this vodeo.

I've been playing for 7 years and I somehow clicked on this video because I expected to learn something. Fortunately I already knew all of it but it just explains how informative your videos are.

Me too
Just had to stop in the middle of this, and say, love you! Thanks from an old beginner beginner, you’re terrific. Tuning into you is one of the highlights of my day!
Hey Rob, haven't played for over 40 years. Just found out I still can thanks to you. Thanks again!
You’re teaching method is the best. Thank you.
Because of this video. My 8 month old daughter loves drumming with her hands on any surface she can get them on. She can hold a solid beat. I need to figure out where to go from here to get her prepared for the real deal, sticks and all :) --- In the mean time, we listen to your beats straight through multiple times a day while she sits and watches intently in her jumper, keeping a beat along with the video. Our Grandfather was a Drum Major in the military and was very active as a stand-in with many many famouse 60's drummers. We have music flowing in our families blood and I think I have the next gen drummer on my hands. Mr. Rob, do you have any recommendations on how to help develop this talent at 8 months old? (Liked, subbed and alerts on btw)
Outstanding Rob, thank you. These are great exercises to build timing, strength and, most importantly, feel. Bravo.
Play bass and picked up my first drum kit yesterday so far the best learning video I’ve seen I’ll be tuned in air 🤜
Hi Rob! Any tips on separating your Hi-Hat hand from Kick foot? My natural inclination is to always hit the Hi-Hat when I'm kicking.
"99% of people wont read this ...... but have a fantastic day you 1%'ers !!
Thank you! I hope you have a great day as well!
Bam.
Love it
You have a fantastic day you 99%er.

Thanks Rob, this made me set my kit up after weeks of not playing!
Love your lessons Rob. Q: do you recommend that beginners ‘count’ in their heads? 1,a,and,a, 2,a,and,a..... Thanks
You mean count in 16ths? 1 e and uh 2 e and uh.... Depends on time signature and tempo. Assuming you're doing 4/4, which you are if you're new If it were 12/8, that would be wrong. 12/8 counts 1 and uh, 2 and uh. 3 and uh, 4 and uh.... Look up Stepping Out by Joe Jackson. Try to count in 16ths. Good luck. Lol. Its REALLY fast. So is bodysnatchers by radio head or Rio by Duran Duran. At that point. You'll either count eighths (1 & 2 & 3 & 4 &) or quarters (1 2 3 4). The 16ths will still be there as you'll need them for two handed high hats. You'll be counting 1 e and uh 2 e...alternating both hands on HH. The trick is to ALWAYS go to the snare and hit it on the way back from a fill. Otherwise it don't work. Lol
@@windsofmarchjourneyperrytr2823 Hi friend, many thanks for your detailed reply. I am indeed a beginner. I'm experimenting to see how far I can get by teaching myself before I need a (live) drum teacher. I find I need to count, especially with drum fills, so I know where the 1 is. Thanks again for your advice! Geoff in the UK
Hi Rob, I notice a lot of drummers move their legs (both kick and hat legs) when they aren't playing actual notes or working the hi-hat/kick. Is this a time-keeping technique that I should start using? I notice a lot of drummers also ghosting 8th notes on the snare as well (most likely as a time-keeping measure, because it is often too quiet to add much texture to the groove). I've never been able to do that on the snare quietly enough to keeping it from changing the texture of the groove. I think that too early on in my playing as a drummer I tried to play on the back-beat and never really got a consistent feel for 4-on-the-floor style playing. For instance, I rarely ever click the hi hat on all of the quarter notes when I'm playing, unless I feel like the song specifically calls for it or I'm trying to play something jazzier. Is this is a bad habit that I should start addressing. Maybe ai should also add: while I did receive some drum lessons initially, most of my practice consists of playing along to recorded music through headphones and with a couple bands I play in at actual rehearsals. I am trying to change that and get back to fundamentals, but it is hard to find the time on top of learning new songs to perform in 2 groups and working 50 hr weeks in an already very physical job. Thanks Rob, your channel is an incredible resource to drummers; your production value and insights into drumming are top-notch!
True, it is to keep that "pulse" going. You need it to be internal, but some physically do this as well.
Yes. Excellent teacher I agree. 58 & 1st kit.
Thank you for this! Best beginner drum instruction video I've found so far! Thank you!
Noticed my almost 3 year old will listen to music with me and she does her arms like she is playing the drums or when she watching a video. So figure get her some sticks and a practice pad and let her go at it. Any advice on good age to start letting her try to learn. Noticed she learns quick and always remember stuff easy. Might sound stupid me asking for info
It depends on the discipline level of the child. If she is showing interest at this young of an age, there’s no harm in letting her start playing and experimenting. As a parent of a similar aged daughter, she might have short moments where she is open to being taught, but ultimately might not take instruction from someone until at least grade school age.
I notice you letting the stick rest on the snare after each beat. That's what I do naturally, but thought it was considered a Bad Thing. What's your opinion on that, Rob? Thanks, Rob.
Yea same here. I thought I was doing the wrong thing but have noticed that it is common by people that know what they are doing.
I’ve found that being able to do both is beneficial... especially as the grooves get funnier and you wanna play with different snare textures.
Thank you so much I appreciate you taking the time out to make this video! 💙🙏🏽
Learning some basic drums to complete some work before I go in the studio. Very glad I clicked on this. Some really good, fundamental stuff that is as little different than the norm.
“This video is meant to be watched while your sitting at your drum kit.” I’m literally just watching this because I’m being forced to perform at a festival lol
How'd ya go?
@@LH-hl9zx It was a school thing it was alright tho
Anyone else just completely mess up when the snare comes in!? I'll get it eventually!
I'm having the opposite problem. I mess up without the snare with it I got no prob but I can only do up to exercise 6
For me it's the kick drum, I just always want to push that pedal.
Same here, any change at all and my brain says automatically hit the snare. This is going to take me some time for sure
HI Rob, Thanks for these videos! I like the way you teach the grooves. You tell us about it, then show us with enough time to understand. The breakdowns are great too! I will definitely link these videos for my students to watch. I have had fun watching you teach and play and look forward to future videos. Take care, man, you ROCK!
This is great. The presentation is simple and easy to follow. His rythem and timing for this demo is excellent.
am 10000 years old binary lesbian vampire, i just started drumming and give my thanks for wonderful teachings
YOU ARE SO FUNNY
You are binary?
Okay, so i am here, wanting to learn how to play drums... I dont own any drums, but i wanna get good at it, so i cant practice. Anyways, i dont want to buy drums since i am not good at it, so i am kinda stuck in a loop.
You don’t have to be! If you’ve got the time and patience (and $$) I highly recommend it! I bought a set second hand for $125, and it’s a great way to pass time, groove, practice, or blow off some steam. I’m the kind of person who appears to be able to keep their calm, but that’s because I like to hit drums when I’m upset haha. I say, if you can shell out the coins, the only way to know if you’re good, is to try to get there, right? Good luck 😊🙌🏾
Buy some drum sticks and practice on a pillow then go from there.
It's great to give beginners things that can easily play right off the bat so they don't get discouraged. Great Lesson!
EXCELLENT training and exercise vid. You are a great teacher. Thank you! 🥁
i just started this week, thank so much for this. heel up to start?! woah, i was defintiely heel down. this is helpful. thank you so much! i cant wait to keep following you! i appreciate your work and all that you do for us!!
