5 MUST KNOW Drum Rudiments That WORK

[chrisprendergast]

My top 5 were mostly the same apart from I would go for 6-stroke roll instead of the drag. Getting a decent 6-stroke roll means you can play swing / triplet feel grooves and fills.

I teach similarly - 👍🏻👍🏻🥁
Need to add ruff.
I usually teach another flam or Paradiddle option. 👍🏻🥁

Man speaks truth. If you're a beginner, work on these particularly, and you'll be amazed where they'll get you!

I’d like to add a thing right away. That is to do inverted doubles. And also inverted combos of paradiddles.

Then just play paeadiiddles free just mix and match doubles and singles however you like. Do this as an excercise.

Inverted doubles are

RLLR Insted of RRLL

Inverted paradiddles are

RLLR LRRL
RRLR LLRL
RLRL LRLR RLRL

And then the normal one. RLRR LRLL.

change subdivisions to 8th and 16th triplets and you are pro.

Snare has a funny ring in the sustain. I suppose it’s intentional.

But yes. This video nails it. This is all you need for advanced advance amateur playing. Play all these beteween feet and hands too. Then you’re set.

I sure miss these videos. We're always my faves but with out a drumset makes it hard to play

[tuomokalvia]

Thank You, that is a good list. But how about the buzz roll too?

[austinsatterfield]

Paradiddlediddle is also a great one to add

[justushyronimusausdemnetz]

Are drag and flam really rudents? The way I understand the word, rudiments are combinations of notes, like parradidle, flam mill or seven stroke roll

[oobernoober]

The one's I use most in my playing, either directly or in an alternate version, because of how necessary they are!!!

[ivansargent]

I would argue that you have to increase your rhythmic field by making eighth note triplets a fundamental rudiment...🎉

[superdantendo]

I think you need to know triplets before a drag playa

[TheSilverblade]

right on a few but not all. singles. paradiddles. paradiddlediddles. doubles. and triplet flams. nothing else really needed. if you want to improve on that, you move onto metric modulations. the flam stuf can come later and isnt necessary wtf.

[TheSilverblade]

i think the last two are wack as heck. there are more important ones.
