- Yes yes! Brian Blade man... what can you say? One of the most musical drummers on planet earth! I've always love his drumming and in particular, his feel! Too sick! In today's lesson we are picking out some concepts from his drum solo on the Joshua Redman track - Jazz Crimes, to see what we can learn and transfer over to our own playing! This is just a list of concepts I noticed but if you picked up on anything else- chuck it in the comments mates! As always, notation down below! Alex 👊

Can you make a video on how you tune your set, especially the toms? Sounds awesome
Thanks mate! I usually follow the benny greb method from art and science of groove and then for this sound I just cranked the toms until I thought it sounded good - no real method haha! Alex 👊
One of my favourite youtubers!
Ah thanks mate, really appreciate it! Stoked you are getting something from the channel! Alex 👊
Hi Alex,
Beautiful, great work. Blade is ridiculous too much beauty but as you said the last dot in the list, play as yourself this is the biggest goal. thanks!!!❤
Thanks mate! Ah man for sure, Blade is too sick! Thanks for watching! Alex 👊
Nice playing man. Are you using the click ?
Thanks Lorenzo! Yeah I am using the click in this video- the backing track is at 115bpm! Alex 👊
Brian is killer!! 🔥🔥🔥
For sure, unreal drummer! Alex 👊
This solo always messes me up lol. The syncopation of the off beat hits always throws me, especially the one in the fourth bar on the E of 4(???), my ear starts to hear it a 16th note prior so the first hit lands directly on the 1 and then I just play through the whole solo like that until the end where I readjust the 16th note back to land back into the groove. AAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH
It’s a tricky one for sure! In bar 4 the hit is on ‘3+’ but in bar 8 there’s one on ‘1a’ and ‘3+’ - if you pause the video where I full screen the notation, you can see the count written on top of the notes! Hope it helps! Keep killing it! Alex 👊
