[irwin3036able]

just a question. these are some pretty hard rudiments. do you guys compose these yourselves?

[thematt961]

if you take Thom Hannums monkey beats you can play egg beaters at the end and it fits perfectly

[rawfood777]

Sweet!

[ivanbagual]

[EasyE34Life]

why is it called an eggbeater?

[carlodeleco]

Hey Snarecience, I found one of my old corps rudiment sheet (not the standard 40) from the early '70s. The names have changed some but there are some fun ones. Want to see it?? Where can I send you a copy??

[Starcraftgod95203]

You were in Minnesota Brass?? I'm considering trying out for them. I went to a couple of their auditions for 2010. But I backed out. maybe next year :P

[dethangel201]

Can someone help me,I can't get my left hand to keep up

[carlodeleco]

Hey great stuff. Back in the ancient days of drum corps (late 1960's--mid 70's) we called these change-ups. Some folks played them metered (even 5's) or synked (fast3 slow 2 or 2--3). Try them flammed each way.... makes it even more fun!!

Then toss in some inversions. Enjoy!! and keep the good stuff coming!

[snarescience]

@carlodeleco That's awesome!  I always love hearing about the 'ancient' days of drum corps. :) Thanks for the comment.

[Ryyudo]

snarescience(dot)com. all his stuff is on there

[Youngblood1223]

Whats really cool is that this guy has only been playing for six months! Yeah...he picked it right up! :o

[spacitydrummer4JC]

Are you an instructor?

[mmmmbert]

I prefer using the term egg beaters to describe three 24th notes, then two 32nd notes with the same sticking patterns.  r r r ll or l l l rr

When you use an actual egg beater the blades tend to spin faster when you turn the handle down and slows when you go up, so the rudiment actually sounds like an egg beater. But that's just my opinion.

[Rpkist77]

What the hell is a 24th note? Lol. Are you talking bout a 16th note triplet fir inside an 8th note?

[mmmmbert]

Yeah, 24th notes are another way of saying triplet 16th notes. I usually use that term when I teach something that goes from 8th, to 8th note triplets (12th), 16th, 16th note triplets (24th), 32nd or whatever just cause it's shorter.

[Branndon626]

[kosephdrums]

[zeppelinfreak51]

The 5lets are technically pentuplets, but Im not gonna ass you over it cause your 100x better then me

[metrognome69]

actually they're called quintuplets, you noob. and if i were you i would never argue with him, he knows what he is talking about.

[zeppelinfreak51]

...actually, in common practice you just say the number and then tuplet for anything over a triplet. 5tuplet, 7tuplet, etc.

[cwk1417]

i gotta agree with zeppelinfreak51 on this, I mean yea you could say quintuplets but in just a common practice they are 5tuplets etc. but don't get me wrong, I'm not disagreeing with snarescience

[tdubasdfg]

i say

triplet

5let

sextuplet

septuplet

whatever....

[drum789]

do you alternate the egg beater sticking?

[yomeportobien]

i wanna know the same thing

[littlesnareboy]

im sure it's possible, but if you were to alternate that would be five strokes on one hand. so in NORMAL situations no don't alternate without some kinda space between.

[yomeportobien]

you're right

[Littledrummaboi]

this is such a fun exercise

[Kaifukuryoku]

MBI?? NICE!!
