By Brenda Myers


Without music, there is no creative way of expressing what you feel through tone, rhythm and mind blowing lyrics. Indeed, this has been a huge part for human individuals for the longest time. And to prove its importance, there has been instruments created for the sake of betterment in music styles like drum sets. This specific instrument has been a strong provider of flavorful beats and grooves.

Now, drummers are basically aware that learning how to create such sounds and vibe is not easy. There has to be so much practice and honing of skills and they do not learn such talent in one sitting alone. Normally, you would see them with their drum set and play along with the songs they are most comfortable of practicing.

With that, they create and develop skills in grooving and frilling sounds out of their set. Normally, people who watch drummer play would just notice how awesome and cool they are without even realizing that they practiced so hard to be able to keep up with the songs and beat playing from the rest of instruments along.

Learning the drums would not be as easy as practicing in one sitting alone. You will make mistakes and be challenged along the way but if you keep on persevering and following the right learning path, then you most likely will enjoy the most of your time and use all the learnings you got into actual play.

So, basically the initial part of your training with drums are techniques. There are lots of them and mastering it should not come in pressuring style. As much as possible, give yourself time to master each of the technique you are trying to learn and specialized. Once its already perfected then move on to another technique without forgetting what you have learned.

Now, these training normally would refer on all patterns you could do with drums. However, you have all the liberty to try on your own technique once you mastered the basic. Besides, if this particular skill is polished well, its really simpler for one to play on drum sets effectively even without guide along the way.

After which, improving your coordination is the next step as well as independence when playing. When one is still starting, normally they cannot fully make independent beat nor sound on each limb. That is basically hard and somehow like multitasking. That is the reason why you need coordination.

However, if you are up for the challenge you would understand that independent rhythms sound extra effective when its together. With that, you can create endless of variation of your own groove and not to mention the beat. With that, you will just have to practice alteration patterns on each of your limb.

Then, last would be musicality. All you have learned are basically theories if you do not use them accordingly. With that, your creative sense in music is needed so you can then play along with the songs you want. Right there, jamming and playing in with a band of your own is totally a possibility.
