Points to learn musical instruments

A. Clarify what you need to play.

These four points are the skills required to play an instrument.

On the drum

"2. Rhythm" and "3. Dynamics" processing

It is a point.

 

Especially on the drum

"3. Dynamics processing"

It is an important technology.

" Technology that accurately expresses strength and weakness

Basic technology is wide and deep music expression

be connected.

Like “David Garibaldi” and “Peter Erskine”

There are also drummer seminars that have a history

Most of them are those who have studied and practiced teaching.

 

The important technical skill in playing drums

 

It's extremely slow and accurate timing

Dynamics from the weakest to the strongest

Techniques that can be controlled

It is.

 

So let's get started!

 

‼ The first song is a practice minus one without a bass.

The second song contains a reference performance of the bass.

1. Swing beat

It's a so-called old jazz song.

The bass is played based on quarter notes while clearly showing the progress of the harmony. People who enjoy in the lounge shake their bodies and dance, saying "1.2 beats" to the left and "3.4 beats" to the right.

That's why it was called Swing beat because "swing" = Swing.

2.8 beat --rock

The drums are played in 8 minutes with a hi-hat, and the bass is also played based on the eighth notes while clearly showing the progress of the harmony. The piano also plays impressive riffs centered on 8 minute increments.

8 because everyone engraves eighth notes  It is called beat.

3. shuffle  beat beat 

Divide a quarter note into three parts and use the middle as a rest. It is said that "three people are out",

This is the same as what is called "legato" that the drums carve in "Swing beat".

I incorporated it into this kind of vigorous music. "Bugiugi" is the same companion.

4.8  beat --3 piece Hard rock

Play with drums, guitar, and bass, and one of them takes vocals.

"3 piece band" is the best organization that creates rock dynamics and tension.

Although this song has 8 beats, the riffs and phrases change gorgeously to create coolness. "How to change the rhythm" is also an important role of the bass.

Five.  6/8 beat  --Blues  rock

It is a style of 8 minutes triplet that divides the quarter note, which is also called "Hachiroku" in Japanese, into three.

The drums are hi-hats and the bass is basically the same.

There are many masterpieces of this format in the blues genre.

◆ How to choose an instrument-For those who are new to bass

I think that electric bass will be able to get their own instrument and start practicing.

When I go to a musical instrument store, I get lost because there are many basses,

I will talk about what to be careful of for beginners and what is the recommended base.

◆ The points are tone and ease of playing

I think there are many people who use the same model as their favorite artists and players.

That's fine, but if it's a "transformed bass" or "multi-string bass" that I'll talk about later,

You should avoid it. The reason is "it's hard to play".

With an "easy-to-play bass", you can concentrate on learning without worrying about the extra pain.

The other is "tone".

The electric bass is the only "pick-up pick up the sound" is with "passive"

There are two types of pickups, "active", which have a preamp circuit.

Then first know that the bass can be plugged into an amp to produce sound, which will be the sound of the artist's work you are listening to.

The instrument I bought was far from the sound of the music I always listen to, and it was n't fun with shobo.

Your hands will move away from the instrument.

Of course, if you connect it to an amplifier at home and make a sound, the local residents will call the police.

Based on these, we will propose what to choose for the first instrument.

​Here is the recommendation

The left was favored by studio musicians in the 1990s
It is a high level active bass used instrument of "BLADE".

It's also a good idea to buy a second hand high-end model such as "Moon", "ESP", "G & L" at a reliable store.

The right is a new active base of "YAMAHA".

Both will be available for purchase in the 60,000s.

We do not recommend cheap copy models such as jazz bass and precision bass. It's not fun.
