Matt Ritter’s instructional video Bass Drum Techniques for Today’s
Drummer - Unburying the beater is great for the beginning drummer to the
seasoned professional. Matt tackles a very neglected aspect of playing the
drum set which is Bass drum techniques. Furthermore in this video he
teaches his own bass drum style “Unburying the beater” which is a hybrid
of heal down and burying the beater allowing the drum set artist to
achieve speed with out sacrificing sound quality.
Matt gets very in
depth describing the physics, physiology and mechanics that’s involved with
playing the bass drum. He teaches you proper stool placement and
height as well as drum set setup, he goes over the pedal its mechanics and
describes how to find its sweet spot.
Matt Ritter’s video Bass Drum
Techniques for Today’s Drummer Unburying the beater is a 2 hour 16 minute
professional quality instructional video and is a must for the beginner
to the professional wanting to learn lightning fast single bass drum
techniques such as played by John Bonham, Neil Peart, Vinnie Colaiuta and
many other great drummers with out Burying the beater and sacrificing
sound quality.
