STOP burying the bass drum beater! I know you rock guys are gonna hate me, while you jazz guys might be applauding. But today I’m going to show you why EVERY drummer should seriously consider this technique. Believe it or not, there are 3 huge benefits to exclusively bouncing the beater. When it comes to kick drum technique, this is one of those huge but often-overlooked aspects of bass drum sound. If your foot, leg, or knee is sore at the end of the gig, it may be because your burying the beater. If you’re not getting a big enough sound out of your bass drum that’s loaded with massive low end, it may be because you’re burying the beater. And if you’re tearing up your shoe because your foot keeps running into the chain at the end of the footplate...it may be because you’re burying the beater. Check out the one big solution to all of this... BOUNCING the beater every time instead. Ultimately it comes down to being consistent in whatever method you choose. If you’re a die hard “burier,” just make sure you do that consistently every time. Same if you’re a “bouncer.”
