The incredible Larnell Lewis is back at Drumeo for another mind-blowing full lesson. In this video, Larnell demonstrates how to build epic, killer fills powered by the kick drum.

You’ll learn how adding or removing the bass drum can create a sense of tension and release, get ideas on where to place the bass drum in a fill, and pick up many other tips along the way (like why you should always take the time to play things slowly, and how to start mapping drum fills on a grid).

We often hear big or epic massive fills and it can be challenging to figure out how to put it together. Don’t worry – Larnell’s here to teach you how to get there with flair!
