Snare drum beats & stuff

Improvised drum grooves with rudimental stuff and just lots of snare drum ghost notes. Most rolls are RRLL or RLL (triplet), which is what I've been practicing quite a lot lately. Maybe a bit of Benny Greb -influence here and there :)

Sound recorded with Rode NT-5 (just one this time, back to basics) and AKG D112 à la John Bonham. Fast Track Ultra & GarageBand. Video shot with Canon EOS 500D and Lensbaby fisheye.

Cymbal setup from your left to right: Meinl Byzance 19" med-thin crash, Stagg Regular 10" splash above Meinl Classics 12" china on Tama X-hat stand, Sabian HHX 21" Groove ride, Byzance 14" extra dry hihat, Byzance 18" thin crash.

I like double-stroke roll.

Need to practice my rudiments a bit more if you wouldn't mind a tutorial would be greatly appreciated oh an great job man

@Ryanh1241 play triplet rolls with sticking RLL / RRL with a metronome for 15 minutes every day. First focus on one sticking, then the other and then start to alternate between them. Accent the lonely stroke. If you do that in different tempos and remember to focus on getting a clean roll instead of trying to push it as fast as you can, you should notice you've improved a lot in a few weeks. Patience is the key, you won't learn anything in one day or if you try to be too fast.
