It's incredibly useful! I've been gravity rolling for awhile and just recently learned push-pull, it's alot more versatile, since you can transition to and from it in a instant and regulate tempo easily. I still prefer the gravity roll for blast beats though.
Push and pull is great fun, I use it alot on my ride with my right hand whilst doing ghost notes on the snare, gives it a bluesy feel :p
A one-handed drum roll will only impress other drummers.
The people that you need to impress are the people listening to your songs.
That's not true at all, for example, alot of what I write and play cannot be done without these techniques, unless you're superhumanly fast with your single strokes, and even then it would be a waste of energy when you could do it one handed. Even if you play a slower style than I, you can make some incredible rhythms by incorporating push pull, the audience may have no idea what you're doing but they'll like it. You should never purposefully not learn something, you never know what ways you can imagine to use it, even if it seems useless to you.Quote:

i agree with shazane on this one. for instance the reason why im working on it is i want to roll and crash on every 3 in a 4 triplet count. and thats almost imposible to do without lifting one stick from the roll to crash and then it sounds less smoth than i want on the roll, so i would rather just learn one handed rolls with my left hand.
I'm sure it is for you but for younger/newer drummers like Davie, the cool tricks "can" be a distraction from other basics. All in all if you have lots of time to practice, I don't see anything wrong with learning this technique. I just don't like to see "tricks" being overemphasized. That's just my opinion. BTW what style to you play? Blessings.......Quote:

IMO it's probably worth doing this more than learning one handed rolls because you have to get very good at them, otherwise they sound sloppy, but it's your decision.
So, LRF, and I think your left arm should start on snare, then move to crash, crashing with the second right arm, yeah? Then you do it again but with your right arm starting, then going to the cymbal, then crashing.
So I guess, snare drum wise, it's a single from one hand, then a double on the other. You seem like a very competent drummer, I hope you're able to use this and the one handed roll and see which you prefer.
Sounds cool man, push the limits. I'm sure you've heard of Jo Jo Mayer? He's not metal but has some techno/new wave/whatever influences that incorporate fast hand/feet speed. He basically said he wants to be able to play the beats (you'd normally program) and put a human feel and touch on them. Of course some just can't be done, but he's trying all sorts of variations/speeds/time signatures that are quite interesting. Take care. Blessings.......Quote:

oh and middle man ive been known to practice 7hrs a day everyday for the past year i can handle the bassics.
Sorry I was just going off of your video I saw. I've been playing 20 years and I still get "lazy" on some basics I need to go back to from time to time. Seven hours a day?...wow keep it up man that's awesome! Blessings.......
Yep, that's what I meant.Quote:

hey man dont apologise i aprechiate the imput and probably came across wrong in what i ment. i chose something advanced that i want to get down on top of my normal basics, i dont thnik even im crazy enugh to practice one thing for 7hrs.Quote:
