  • This Isn't a lesson... Instead, I want to share what I am practicing, my thought process, and the exercises I'm using.
    This video ended up being a lot longer than I had originally planned. But there is just SO much to discuss... I recently began my journey of exploring the Herta. I have never really taken the time to properly learn it and become comfortable using it and I've decided the time has come.
    Hopefully this video will inspire you to take on the Herta for yourself! Enjoy!

      the dislikes come from sticklers and people who have learned some of these components differently.

    I've played guitar my whole life (I'm 40) and have always been able to tap out a few versions of 4/4 on drums... our 10 year old son started drum lessons last year and has quickly got better than me... my guitars in the garage have recently been joined by two (one's electric) drum kits and I've found myself trying to keep up.... thanks my brother

    Bro, this is exactly what learning drummers need. A simple explanation of a rythem, application on one sound to get the hang of it, trials of different dispositions, and then application on different sounds of the drum set.
    Absolutely easy to follow and apply.

    What I really dig about your Videos is how you show the way you aproach different problems/obstacles. Many of those problems I'm facing myself (the part about your brain suddenly freaking out when
    changing surfaces was sooo relatable...) and it's interesting to see how a different mind tries to handle them. Nice work keep it up fam

    Man... you made me realize a fill I’ve been using in a song is a KLR herta, I’d never thought of it that way before I just was doing it. Now I can really work it out! Hertas rule but I typically think of them as a 3 over 2 pattern, your 16th note explanation really expands the vocabulary. Subscribed!

    Hi
    Great video about 4-Note Herta. The bass drum ideas are very interesting. I also like the orchestrations over the toms.
    However, I am more of a fan of the 3-note Herta, because it shifts so nicely over the 16th notes.
    I'm always looking for how to bring rudiments to the drum set.
    I find it a pity that most of the rudiments stick to the pad. The sheet music is also very nice.
    Clapping is often underestimated. Sometimes I find it really useful and helpful
