Every drummer should utilize Ted Reed page 38. So versatile and practical. Never thought about funk and halftime excellent job Jack 👏👏👏
Thanks Ron, yes the options are really endless aren't they?
The variety of syncopation techniques demonstrated here is really impressive. Each approach adds a distinct layer to the rhythm, making even simple exercises more dynamic and engaging. This is a valuable resource for anyone looking to deepen their understanding of syncopation.
You could do an entire channel dedicated to teaching this book and stick control. I'd pay for that.
That's an awesome idea 💡
der alte Ted ist immer noch gut!!
Ich stimme zu, was für ein unglaubliches Buch, auch nach all den Jahren noch.
Drumming is best thing I ever do, I love it much. Learn new beats hard but I get better slowly. Drums make me feel so good, I play every day.
Awesome, glad to hear it!
I appreciate the detailed approach you took with each syncopation method. The diversity in the patterns and the way you demonstrated them across various tempos and grooves really helps to illustrate the flexibility of syncopation. This video is a valuable addition to any drummer's toolkit.
This is a beautiful video !!! Woow the Quality of the information along with the Cameras production ! Amazing ! What cameras do you have ?
Thanks man, I appreciate that. Very happy with the new studio setup atm.
What an absolute masterclass - great work
Thank you!
I remember the first time I picked up a pair of drumsticks; it was like discovering a new part of myself. Drumming became my escape, a way to express what words couldn't. Over the years, I've found that the more complex the rhythm, the more satisfying it is to master. Syncopation has always been a challenge, but also incredibly rewarding when I get it right. Practicing drums has taught me patience and persistence, and I can't imagine my life without it.
I couldn't agree more, it becomes a part of your identity.
The way you play is so smooth, it's awesome to watch
Much appreciated, thank you
You're a great teacher, thanks for sharing these tips
You're welcome, thanks for watching, I appreciate it :)
my teacher actually had some Jazz brushes applications for these rhythms also, leading on from those snare triplet variations you were doing at the start.
Thanks, years ago after I finished going through the book my drum teachers taught me to play jazz to it. I see from your video there’s many more ways to play this book I never even thought. There’s a couple you did I really liked I’ll do
@@anthonyp-gx3mk I was taught the Jazz variations first as well. But really you can use it in any genre, I think that's why it's such an amazing book!
love how you broke everything down, now syncopation seems way less confusing.
been drumming for 7+ years and teaching too. this video reminded me how much more there is to learn. thanks for the inspiration Jack
You're welcome, I hope you find value from it.
Can't wait to practice this tonight 🎧
Good luck!
Got my first drum set at 30 🥁 and your videos have been a lifesaver. This syncopation lesson was tough but rewarding ❤️.
Great to hear!
this video is super cool, never thought of using syncopation like this before.
Wow id seen a couple of those jazz examples before, but that was just wild Jack, thank you for the ideas.
The funk examples in this video were fantastic. Can't wait to incorporate them
Thank you
I’m usually not great with syncopation, but you made it so easy to follow. I’m excited to start practicing these techniques.
Goldmine lesson, Jack!
@@rogerbaird901 thanks mate, glad you enjoyed it!
My drum practice just got a whole lot more interesting thanks to this video 🔥. Syncopation is finally making sense 🎧.
Great to hear!
Syncopation finally makes sense, thanks 🎶
You're welcome, hope you get something from it!
Loved this video, super helpful. I never realized there were so many ways to play syncopation. You really broke it down well.
dude 20 ways to play page 38 of Syncopation?! mind blown. can't wait to try these out. jazz groove was sick
Enjoy man, the Jazz variations are awesome vocab builders
Grazie Jack, il tuo video sulla sincopazione mi ha aiutato moltissimo. Finalmente riesco a capire come applicare questi ritmi complessi nella mia musica.
Glad to hear it, thank you
Outstanding as always, Jack. Your lessons are both informative and entertaining.
Glad you think so :)
Excellent!
'Went through that book and many more in the '70s.
@@brianchisnell1548 it certainly has stood the test of time, I still use it regularly.
Very good as always, Jack. God bless
Thanks for listening
Loved the syncopation tips! 👏
thank you!
Love this Jack. been playing for 15 years but always learn something new from your vids. keep it up
Thanks, will do!
Your approach to teaching syncopation has really helped me improve. Thanks for making it so clear, Jack.
You're welcome! Glad to hear you are getting something from it.
Thanks for the breakdown! 🤘 I’m excited to try these out in my practice sessions.
great video, you’ve given me a lot to work on and experiment with.
Jack, you rock! 🤘
thank you!
This channel has the best drum content. Subscribed and looking forward to more!
thanks, I really appreciate that :)
Great video. I have page 37 too. :) I just pulled my copy and but didn't find anything interesting enough after all these years. You changed that.
Thanks Chris, glad to hear it! It's an amazing book on so many levels.
Next step: buying a drum kit to fully implement these awesome lessons. Thanks for the motivation
You're welcome, let me know if you need a hand looking for a kit
loved this 🎧
Freaking fantastic video.
@@Nevernow721 thanks man, I appreciate it.
Nice work
Thanks Luis
super helpful 🥁
The problem I have with this book is that it's written so differently from the way modern notation for the drums is generally written. I almost have to first translate his method to the current method. Too much like hard work!
Hand written!
Your setup looks amazing. Can you do a studio tour?
that's a great idea! My studio is VERY simple and downsized.
Nice!!thanks.And there are also many ways to Mambo, and Songo, or sextuplet expansion
You bet!
Jack,呢條片真係好犀利,我從來冇諗過可以咁樣應用呢本書。我之前只係喺爵士音樂上做過類似嘅嘢,但冇試過其他方式-真係一條好特別嘅片。
can't afford a real drum kit yet so using chopsticks and an empty pot noodle. your lessons make even that setup fun
Good to hear!! Keep going!! I hope you can get a kit soon
The problem I have is getting those smooth doubles or buzz rolls with this sticking at other/slower tempos.
Slower tempos can be tricky in any groove or rudimental pattern, more space between the notes for things to fall out of time. I use more wrist at slower tempos, and most fingers at faster tempos.
Love this new studio Jack - what kit is that - im looking at one for my apartment too, torn between vdrums or something else
Thank you - Vdrums are great, this kit is a Yamaha DTX8 with birch shells - love it!
what click app you use on ipad...??
That's not a click app man, its the video switching app for my multi camera setup.
@@JackBennettDrums ah~ha^^ You are my one of the best Drum teacher!😍🤩
Thank you my friend, I appreciate that.
What app is this please? Geat lesson, you got my subscrive.@@JackBennettDrums
BJESUS.. I have a long way to goooooo
Stay on the path my friend!
👏👏👏
thanks Ron :)
Wowwwwwww
Haha - thank you :)
FAR OUT!!
What’s your favorite genre to play Jack...?
Just whatever I'm playing at the time mate, I don't think I have a favourite. But I'm certainly grateful I get to play a bunch of different genres
Why do many drummers find this line from page 38 so special!???
It's the first of the 40 bar exercises, and if you watch the video you'll see there's a lot of different ways you can develop vocab from it.
This video is too advanced for me. I wish you’d slow down and explain things more clearly, I’m totally lost.
Use settins to slow it down. If you have the book, pg 38 shows how to count. Best way to practice these is sing the rhythm. Sing dit for shorts (1/8ths) and dah for longs (1/4s).
Alot what he is doing is filling in whats not there in the rhythm. The rhythm are accents. Write out the rhythm on paper with the count above it. For triplets Fill in the the ghost notes . Now you have a complete rhythm in triplets. Do same for 1/16ths, etc.
Jack would habre yo do a very long video yo explain all that.
Thanks for your feedback, and sorry to hear some of it went over your head. Maybe I need to do longer videos on each concept
a bit too repetitive, felt like the same ideas were being covered over and over.
There are SOOOOO MANY POSSIBILITIES
Currently working on DOUBLE KICK EXERCISES. 😁
Another personal favorite, using poly-rhythmic foot ostinaptos over the melody line
😁🤯😁🤯😁
STICK CONTROL & THIS BOOK, the ONLY 2 books that are ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY for drummers of ALL LEVELS
IRONICALLY I myself am working to bring a COMPLETE STUDY GUIDE of ≈50-75 different ways to utilize this exercise. Ive worked them all for pgs 38-41 SOLID while currently learning other 4 exercises.
Some of these I haven't played SINCE COLLEGE, 25 YEARS AGO..... So it will be an ABSOLUTELY AMAZING REFRESHER COURSE for MYSELF!!!!
STAY - TUNED..... I will probably make another channel JUST FOR THIS.... &.... I will HASH-TAG Ted Reeds Synco so it is easy to find viia search bar
I was hoping to get a new computer so i can use mics..... But life is life, & i have to wait on THAT, but i do NOT want to WAIT LONGER to START THIS so, thankfully the Galaxy S series phones RECORD AMAZING LY..... CUZ I WANT TO START THIS !!!!!!
