A Drummer’s Guide To...

Building Feel Into Your Playing

How can you develop your feel?

This has always been a life-long obsession for me - how to create the greatest feel known to man! I'm not there yet, but I endeavour to go as far as I can with developing my feel and groove, forevermore :-) In this video, I share the things that I have done in the past and continue to do, to 'move the needle' towards a more delicious and delectable groove - hopefully one of the ideas will resonate with you, or you'll just realise how crazy and obsessive I am! Ach well! :-)

Thanks to Robert DiMaio for the question, and if you'd like to check out him and his music, just head here: https://www.robertdimaio.com/

I was so reluctant to work on my performance side of playing when I was younger, I really didn't appreciate how important (AND FUN!!!) it would be! Here's how I did it, and man it's taken my playing, connection and enjoyment up a huuuuge level! :-)

The quick answer is... whatever works for you! Don't give in to peer pressure, or argue about why one is better than the other... they're all awesome for slightly different reasons, so base your decision on what you'll be using it for along with your intuition when using them... there really is no right or wrong answer on this as long as you do you :-)
