cracking up at this drum lesson by Nate Smith (the 80/20 drummer) where he's trying to demonstrate to you how beginners are sloppy and make mistakes — but because he's so good at what he does, his deliberate mistakes are actually delicious and musical 😂 https://t.co/r7UhM1973J

I love how he starts smiling halfway as he realizes "oh no this sounds good"

@visakanv Hiatus Kaiyote does this a bunch... I remember Nai saying that when she comes up with a goofy off rhythm and the drummer likes it, she knows she's on the right track. Not the best example, but gets you the vibe: https://t.co/5H388QmtUk

@visakanv @ZacharyHundley Here's a piece where this kind of thing with the rhythm happens a lot, and in both directions! Melody before bass https://t.co/PQ6mkEMOgl

@visakanv there's a youtube kickboxing coach that says (paraphrasing) "advanced moves are just beginners moves, but done intentionally". like the weird stuff beginners try can work if you have a good base and intelligence to pick the right time.

@visakanv Norm MacDonald's entire carrer was him doing it so bad that it was hilarious. "He goes you - I go, you're uh, you're not a - sin-guh- you're drunk" no other comedian can pull off this delivery https://t.co/ImjrTtMPYu
