Use a stick to play the drums.
I also use brushes and mallets, but
The most used is a stick.
Sticks are played using your wrists and fingers.
I play "matched grip" with my right hand,
Left hand of "matched grip" and "traditional grip"
There are two types of grips.
Foot Pedal Control
Basic Approach
The first person to hold the stick
Please take a look at this Video.
The idea of grip
You can understand.
Foot Technique
A key to success!
Which is better, "Matched ~" or "Traditional ~"?
I often talk about it
The answer is
"Which is more suitable for your performance expression"
about it.
If you love "Heavy Metal" and only play it
“Matched Grip” is a good choice.
But I also want to play "Vintage Rock" such as "Rolling Stones" and "Blind Faith"
If you think so, why not adopt "Traditional Grip"?
Latin such as "Bosanova" and "Samba", and
If you want to play "Jazz"
It's best to be able to use both.
Some of the connotations that are told in the video
" One technique is not enough for all expressions"
The same can be said for "Drum Pedal Techniques".
What is important with stick control
"Controlling a wide range of dynamics"
As far as the left hand is concerned, "Traditional Grip" has an advantage in this regard.
"Matched Grip" is not bad.
Just rational and emotional to human skeleton and posture
To tell the stick
For the left hand, I think "Traditional Grip" is advantageous.
