some drummers i know like to display their knowledge of techniques.
Others display their knowledge of rhythms. I think i come in the 2nd category. i want a working knowledge of rhythms to play with rather than an arsenal of sideshow stunts. I think one must have competent technique to get their ideas across. But mostly i need to know what i want to play rather than how to play. the latter will come naturally while the former takes research. that's just how i see it fit my personal needs. That's the area i am interested in; different types of music. the techniques are there to get the proper sound. For drumset what is the first practical "technique" you think of when you hear the word "technique". I just want to understand what people think is 'technique" or techniques. There are lots of techniques to explore. what are the main most obvious you think of when you use the term? Obviously we all want precision and accuracy. How does technique apply to this? I need to understand a little better. can you guys explain this term in practical terms with examples?
