Sorry for yelling, but too many times I see drummers that are too busy twirling their sticks and trying to make themselves look the part. Being a good drummer and having good timing go hand in hand. Metronomes can be expensive, but luckily there is an app for that. Check out the app store on your phone or tablet and start practicing with the click.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"2\">\n<li>Less is more<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Being a flashy drummer is good if you know how to use it. Keeping it simple on drums doesn\u2019t make you a boring drummer, it makes you a smart drummer. Sometimes you just need to establish a solid beat and begin to add fills when necessary. Drummers that have good dynamics always have favor with listeners.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"3\">\n<li>Make yourself at home<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>This is tip that is especially helpful in competitions. This happens more times than you think. Your name is called and you get in a hurry trying to setup your kit, plus your nerves don\u2019t make anything easier. The tip is to make sure that you\u2019re comfortable on your kit. You always play better when you feel comfortable. I would suggest setting up your kit a few times prior to competition so you\u2019ll know how long it takes and what challenges you may face. So my advice to you is: take a breath and make yourself at home.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"4\">\n<li>Map it Out<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>It\u2019s important to know where you\u2019re going when you drum. No matter what the occasion it\u2019s important to have a plan of what you\u2019re going to do each time that you play. God has given you a great gift as a musician. Be prepared each time that you play and know where you\u2019re going.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"5\">\n<li>Get creative<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Being a well-rounded drummer will get you the opportunities that you never thought were possible. Unfortunately, at competitions we tend to see the same old 4\/4 rock beat that just turns into noise by the 5<sup>th<\/sup> drummer. Be different. Incorporate different genres into your performance. YouTube will be your best friend when it comes to learning new styles.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"excerpt","protected":false},"author":19,"featured_media":3016,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_genesis_hide_title":false,"_genesis_hide_breadcrumbs":false,"_genesis_hide_singular_image":false,"_genesis_hide_footer_widgets":false,"_genesis_custom_body_class":"","_genesis_custom_post_class":"","_genesis_layout":"","episode_type":"","audio_file":"","cover_image":"","cover_image_id":"","duration":"","filesize":"","date_recorded":"","explicit":"","block":"","filesize_raw":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[305,3,8],"tags":[644,134],"class_list":{"0":"post-3014","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-student-ministires","8":"category-youth-ministries","9":"category-youth-quest","10":"tag-drummers","11":"tag-fine-arts-festival","12":"entry"},"title_es":"Cinco consejos para los bater\u00edas","content_es":"<strong>5 consejos para los bater\u00edas<\/strong> <ol><li> Tiempo lo es todo <\/li><\/ol> Subir a ese CLIC !!! Lo siento por gritar, pero demasiadas veces veo bater\u00edas que son demasiado ocupado haciendo girar sus bastones y tratando de hacerse ver la pieza. Ser un buen bater\u00eda y tener una buena sincronizaci\u00f3n van de la mano. Metr\u00f3nomos pueden ser costosos, pero por suerte hay una aplicaci\u00f3n para eso. Echa un vistazo a la tienda de aplicaciones en su tel\u00e9fono o tableta y empieza a practicar con el clic. <ol start=\"2\"><li> Menos es m\u00e1s <\/li><\/ol> Al ser un bater\u00eda llamativo es bueno si usted sabe c\u00f3mo usarlo. Hacer que sea sencillo en la bater\u00eda no te convierte en un bater\u00eda aburrido, es que un bater\u00eda inteligente hace. A veces, s\u00f3lo tiene que establecer un ritmo s\u00f3lido y empezar a a\u00f1adir rellenos cuando sea necesario. Los bater\u00edas que tienen una buena din\u00e1mica siempre tienen el favor de los oyentes. <ol start=\"3\"><li> Si\u00e9ntete como en casa <\/li><\/ol> Esta es la punta que es especialmente \u00fatil en las competiciones. Esto ocurre m\u00e1s veces de lo que piensas. Su nombre se llama y se obtiene a toda prisa tratando de configurar su equipo, adem\u00e1s de los nervios no hacen nada m\u00e1s f\u00e1cil. La punta es asegurarse de que se sienta c\u00f3modo en su kit. Siempre juega mejor cuando se sienta c\u00f3modo. Yo sugerir\u00eda que la configuraci\u00f3n de su kit un par de veces antes de la competici\u00f3n para saber cu\u00e1nto tiempo se necesita y qu\u00e9 retos que puede enfrentar. As\u00ed que mi consejo es: tomar una respiraci\u00f3n y sentirse como en casa. <ol start=\"4\"><li> Mapa it Out <\/li><\/ol> Es importante saber a d\u00f3nde va cuando tambor. No importa cu\u00e1l sea la ocasi\u00f3n que es importante tener un plan de lo que va a hacer cada vez que se juega. Dios le ha dado un gran regalo como m\u00fasico. Est\u00e9 preparado cada vez que se juega y sabe a d\u00f3nde va. <ol start=\"5\"><li> Se creativo <\/li><\/ol> Al ser un bater\u00eda bien redondeado le dar\u00e1 las oportunidades que usted nunca pens\u00f3 que fuera posible. Por desgracia, en las competiciones que tienden a ver el mismo ritmo de rock 4\/4 de edad que simplemente se convierte en ruido por la <sup>5\u00aa<\/sup> bater\u00eda. S\u00e9 diferente. Incorporar diferentes g\u00e9neros en su rendimiento. YouTube ser\u00e1 su mejor amigo cuando se trata de aprender nuevos estilos.","author_name":"","jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/discipleship\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2017\/04\/5-Tips-for-Drummers.jpg","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p4T9u2-MC","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack-related-posts":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/discipleship\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3014","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/discipleship\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/discipleship\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/discipleship\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/19"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/discipleship\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3014"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/discipleship\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3014\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/discipleship\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3016"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/discipleship\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3014"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/discipleship\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3014"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/discipleship\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3014"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
