I'm in a drumline, so I don't really play the drumset much, but when I do, I play it like this. :P I don't even play beats, I just play marching drum rudiments like flams, diddles, paradiddles, and even more complex ones and turn it into a really fast drum jam. :3
@AlterBridgefanc It's when you have two notes. One is quiet, and one is loud. The loud note comes down on the beat. The quiet note come right before the loud note. It's easiest to just look up a video of them! Hope this helps!
Thanx :-) I don't really have a cool method to show how to tune drums. I just go by hear and I'm lucky enough to own some really good eqipment, which really helps with tuning and getting a good sound quick. Check out some of Bob Gatzen's videos, he's great at that!
@Jungleritter : Bob Gatzen's ? woa ! He's freaking awesome man . i've already watch his video dude . And yeah ! he is damn good ! grr ~ . i wish he can tune my kit ! Haha :D
Damnit... I can't believe how simple this is in terms of like I always thought when drummers did a similar solo to this it was like crazy independance with their left hand, but alot of the time they're just doin paraddidles daaang... definately gonna use this in my aresonal of drumming (haha I said in my arse...onal lol)
I just checked, I didn't switch to the inverted paradiddle, at least not around that time, maybe somewhere else in the video but I don't think so. Although it's totally ok of course to mix them, that's would you would do in a band setting anyways...
@Jungleritter Hey my drum tutor taught me 5 paradiddle rudiments the normal 3 which is paradiddle,double paradiddle and triple paradiddle then a double paradiddle with the first 2 notes played as accents then a triple paradiddle with the first 3 notes accented
I´m pretty sure I stayed with the RLRR LRLL sticking. There´s of course nothing wrong with throwing in some variations, I mean, it´s just an exercise, so you wanna have fun practicing it, right? :-)
Now I was watching this and thought to myself, if you can do that...why not try and do paradiddles with your feet too? haha. Have a cowbell for your foot or something and do paradiddles between bass and that while doing paradiddles with your hands. That would be something to see, as if this wasn't already.
You're good dude.I've been playing drums for about 36 yrs and never had lessons at all.I do not do paradiddles or any technques at all.I guess I probably incoorporate some of these things into my playing,everybody probably does,but I am not aware of them,nor do I know when I am doing them.I 've played in quite a few bands in the past and now play in church only.I think guys like you that can do these techniques are more advanced in your playing than me,but yet,I can play a mean set of drums too.
Thanks mate :-)) Yeah, you´re right. You don´t really need to know what a certain rhythm is called when you play it. But there´s also no harm in knowing I guess. You´re playing for 36 years and you´re still looking up videos for inspiration, that´s pretty cool I think. I myself go through life with my eyes and ears wide open :-))
@Jungleritter true.it never hurts to know these things.but I would guess,I'm kinda giving away my age when I mentioned that I've been playing for 36 yrs.I'm 51.So this "old dog" can't learn any new 'tricks",but I do see new things that I have incorporated into my drumming.Matter of fact,I noticed on a video clip of Peter Criss on the reunion tour with KISS,that he was very laid back in his playing now.as we get older,I guess we relax a little more when playing,I know I have.
hello one moore time Andy. I've been learning paradiddle about seven mounths, with lessons of my teacher, I know that demands alot of precision; sincopation & focus! you're realy good. it's a pleasure see you "groove-in"
It´s not a Remo Soundshape, it´s my Sonor Jungle Trash Snare, please check out my video where I explain and demonstrate this snare. Just type in "Sonor Jungle Trash Snare"
hey man very altruistic from you, thanks for posting such high quality lesson and video, i will surely check out the other, nice drumkit and studio btw
Hey Mike, thanks for the kind words!! :-)) It´s a lot of fun making these videos and I don´t mind sharing my ideas. It´s very rewarding to get so much response...
Nice solo! i have a couple questions. First, out of curiosity, how fast can you get your paradiddles? I'm working at around 200 16ths, those are rough :D Also, have you ever tried playing paradiddles with your feet? I find that a great independence exercise. I'm also working on virgil donati's paradiddle groove, that one's impossible; double paradiddles with the left side, and singe paradiddles with the right :P
Yeah, I´ve practiced all of what you mentioned, although I´m really not proud of my left foot doubles :-) I actually don´t know how fast I can play the paradiddle, I don´t practice much anymore, I reached that age where you start spending more time with the music... :-)
Ha, I know what you mean man. I'm getting there myself, actually. I have enough speed for 95% of musical situations, from here on out its getting the dynamics and feel as solid as possible. I do want that last bit of speed so I can at least be able to play all of extreme metal if i felt like it, haha.
Great stuff, I've never tryied to use the paradiddles for fills like on intesion. Sure, I use them, but its not like i go "no I'll use that Paradiddle" ;)
very very very cool....thanks...

Is this just a straight RLRR LRLL the whole way through? 'Cause I'd really like to know where you place the hi hat and accents between 1:37 and 1:40
EA369 1 year ago
Yes, it is just RLRR LRLL. I think at around 1:37 the second and the fifth stroke is played on the hi-hat. The right hand is playing on the floor tom.
