I'm gonna try this exercise. I'm quite not too fast in my hands, but I'll do fine.
What purpose does the paradiddle fulfill anyway? I just play them for fun in some random fills, but other than to make it a bit more fun, I see no practical use in them
@drag0nfis7 Trying using them (& the variations) as a basis for a beat. An example for the single paradiddle would be ( '^'denotes the snare stroke//accent in 4/4; '*' kick drum):
1+2+3+4 1+2+3+4+
R* L R R L^ R L L
Throw in some 16th's, held together by some groove, & it works quite well. Check out Steve Gadd in this: watch?v=wl4DKmbfDyk & anything by Jojo Mayer (both use a lot of paradiddle variations imo). Have fun :)
what fucking retards commenting on this video. everybodys a fucking hipster to you americans just cos he has a certain dress style. get your fucking heads out of your asses.
@kdrayf01 well its only americans that use this word hipster and to me it seems to be aimed at anybody who decides to wear any sort of alternative dress. its just stupid labelling is all im saying. a biproduct of your overly capitalist ways i suppose.
What a wimp. You need to go to college and take a public speaking class. Get some backbone, your voice ruined everything

@lart1990 Why does being perceived as a 'hipster' have to be derogatory?

So basically, to gain speed on your paradiddles, do more of the paras but the same amount of diddles. not exactly a revelation.
