Mark Beecher - Crazy Army (Rudimental Drumming)

The amazing thing is how there really is no difference to corp and show style drumming the soul and feel is right there for me.

Love it

Nice f'ing Hands!!!!!

Awesome! Can you point me to a transcription on your video?

Excellent!!!

Absolutely fantastic. Wow.

Its clean its accurate pin point definition. I like it and so do a million drummers out there who understand how well this sounds. Never ever under estimate the loving sound of clean drumming. No electric sounds here pure pure pure drumming thank you

I love this sound

Wonderful !!

Nice to this played correctly, as intended. 
It's amazing how much confusion there seems to be these days surrounding this classic composition, its origin, and the way it's supposed to sound (especially the "unwritten" dynamics that are often overlooked). Excellent work.

This is fantastic!!

HUZZAH, HUZZAH, HUZZAH!!💓

Nice production value great sound not too much bass just peerfect

Love your video, technique and precision! A little fast, but great!! 👏🏻

Perfect! I love how you play it!

Isn't this Blue Devils 2017 snare intro?

great !

this shit goes, so amazing. i would love to learn this..

A blast from the past

love this !

Nice!

I'd never heard a version with the extra tap on the end. Not too big of a fan. Very nice playing, though.

This is how they used to transmit orders in the heat of battle, by special drum tattoos. Couldn't hear voices for all the noise, but a drum beat carries a long way. So doesn't a bugle, or fife. And it's easier to train a man to react mindlessly to a certainly pattern of noise than the voice of an officer, which can vary from person to person. That's why they tend to deliver orders in a distinct, set manner. Music is a very old method of command communication in battle.

badass

And the middle part sounds like the intro to Legend of the One Eyed Sailor.

how awesome... :D

great rhythm Mark!

@JumpShotDude Legend of a Two Eyed Soldier/Sailor

Hermosa combinaciòn de rudimento...

Nice !

Drumcorps-fife and bugle

@CJCbassman09 i wasnt talking about rudimental drumming i was talking about his technique which i assumed you were referring to.

@TheDragonmaster18 dude im in a fife and drum corps. Rudimental drumming is found A LOT in the Northeast. So it doesnt exist only in black college drumlines. i NO HOW to play the bass drum And the snare drum. the point of asking to lower the drum is because he will play in the center, getting a better tone out of the head. Look up The Connecticut Patriots fife and drum corps. They are the best senior corps in the Northeast.

@CJCbassman09 dude this is how the bass drum was origionally played. in the description it says this is anceint rudimental drumming. although this style of drumming still exsits today but only in black college drumlines. look up southern university's drumline. they play their drums exactly the way these guys in the vid just played them

tell your bass drummer to either raise his hands up towards the center of the head or lower the damn thing. thanks :D

I don't know about the drum sound (don't bother, I'm sure it's a historically accurate...something), but nice playing. Cheers.

@JumpShotDude is a variation off of Crazy Army.

@ryan9312 oh cool, i had no idea. Im glad it wasn't just me imaging it haha

Am I the only person who was reminded of Santa Clara Vanguard's "Electric Wheelchair" by this?

This is really nice! I like it

The base drummers face! lol. :) good job tho.

bass drummers a little scaryyyy..

Nv mind I found the sheet music But how'd u do the sort of 5 stroke roll really fast? Is it llrrr because I tried that and that's kinda hard to play Or is it lrllr because a paradiddle would make sense Or it could be lllrr which isn't bad either What is it??!!!!

Those videos are great Mark !!

i got the sheet music from a fife and drum website but i dont think its the whole thing, whered you get the sheet music?

marrrrrkkkk! great stuff!

I lover that Legend of the One-Eyed Sailor pattern.

Jack Black plays bass drum?! Nice drumming! Very old school.

steve gadd owns nothing :P
