Trying to keep a basic rhythm

Very nicely done. You've got a little original Tichy rhythm by interpreting a bag beat differently, or hearing a different beat than "I" do. Very nice bag control on the continous double fist splits at 1:37 - 1:39. You through that with the music dead on, and made the combo sound great right there. I would have chose a different combo (I do it in my head) but yours was better actually.

Put a little Rhythm in YOUR workout!

The Art of the Bag

Yeah! Great job! You found a combo/polyrhythm that goes with the song! That is great! And that it not normal! The linking you did on both fists to fit that part of the song is a very clever move. But it makes total sense. The basic FCPs fit perfect with that song as the song is in 6/8 and that is a triplet feel; the same as FCPs on the bag... triplets....i.e. groups of three....
But when you do 2 groups of 3's, that is 6. And another partial of 6 is 2. So you can hit 2 FCP's for a total of 6 rebounds (FCP FCP = 3 and 3 = 6)
Or..... you can punch 3 links (front, reverse, front.... Still 6 rebounds, just 2 +2+2....6!)
The way you did the linking and made it come right back to FCP's is by doubling all I just wrote up.
You linked 6 times, 2 rebounds each....
Front Rt, Reverse Rt, Front Left , reverse Left, Front Rt, Reverse Rt, 2 rebounds, 6 times.... 12 rebounds total.... and that is just like 4 FCP's...12 rebounds total!
It is all basic math! But you picked up on it in the realm of speed bagging!
Also, great form. Keeping the hands up at all times....
And great split fists... you kept the same polyrhythmic vibe going for that stuff as well....
And some great speed at the end.
I think you have come along way in a short time. It is killer to see people really understanding the rhythm of the bag. The stuff you are doing can't really be taught if you don't hear the rhythm s like you do!
Wizard job!
See ya in 2 days!
Double baggin'!
BAGS UP!
Oh and great blast beat speed at the end! You took the triplets up to the next rhythmic level, 16th notes.... a little laster and straighter sounding....basically fitting 4 notes in to the space where you were doing 3....

Can I have your autograph?

Looking forward to more!

Originally posted by The Baggist View PostSounding Great Metaldad!!! Some nice tasteful fills. Your punch drumming is really coming together!!! Lately I've been trying to stick to basics also. Man your gonna hang with Alan and Brian, so I'm sure a lot of mysteries of bangin the bag to music will unlock themselves!!Last edited by metaldad; 10-29-2009, 08:19 AM.sigpic

Metaldad,
Now that you've had the chance to try the plastic ballhook, which do you prefer - the everlast chainlink or the plastic ballhook? What are the pros and cons of each? I continue to struggle with the decision of which swivel I want to be my permanent swivel. By the way, nice work in your video.

EDIT: Just noticed you were asking about CHAIN link vs Plastic ball hook - so disregard my comments, coffee hasn't kicked in yet. I'm referring to metal and plastic ball hook swivels obviously.
