Drum Lessons: Paradiddles & Six Stroke Rolls (and praise break polyrhythms)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 27 вер 2024
- Just a breakdown and comparison between two very similar but very different rudiments. First of many installments coming! Enjoy! P.S: I was NOT making light of what Calvin Rodgers did, (He's one of my favorite drummers and greatest inspirations of all time). I was just saying that its easy to figure out what the foot is doing because it's following the right hand. Be blessed!

I appreciate you breaking it down like that, it help a lot
I was just transcribing this the other day brother and I came across something wild: you play a paradiddle-diddle with a 6-stroke and phrase it to make it feel like 7/8. I like how you broke it down! Bless up...
Dude... I can't drim roll for my life! The way you did it was awesome!
your video helped me alot! not just the praise breakdown but also the gospel groove - practicing on my kit now! thanks!
Glad it was helpful!
Even 8 yrs later and it’s still KILLIN
Great lesson. Made that look easy lol I'm gonna try this Easter Sunday and pray that the spirit takes over lol
Hope it went well! lol thanks for watching!
Much appreciated -- nice clarification of the phrasing difference and the usefulness of the diddlediddle
Wow my dude, you are a fantastic teacher. Thank you for sharing.
This video is what really helped me take off.
Glad it was a help to you man 🙏🏿thanks for sharing and thanks for your support through the years

No
+nelskudler what are you talking about?
He Nick! Great stuff man, love the praise break polyrhythm!!! great sound as well :) Keep it up!
Eddie van dongen thanks for watching man!
That was so dope bro!
Just a little correction - a six stroke roll has two eigth notes (RL)and then the doubles are sixteenth notes (RRLL).
Where as a Paradiddle-diddle is played all together as a group of SIX with a triplet feel, RLRRLL (1+A 2+A etc..)
Six stroke roll: R L RR LL (1+ 2 E+A 3 + 4E+A)
Paradiddle-diddle: RLRRLL ( 1 + A 2 + A 3 + A 4 + A)
Same sticking but different.
Thanks for the suggestion and thanks for watching!
Love the snare sound in the room
Thank you Master! Blessing on you Amen
Jason E. John I’m no master...just a student! Thanks so much for watching and blessings to you as well!
Dude, you just helped me understand that paradiddle diddle lick! I have been trying t make sense of it so I could apply it and not until have I been able to understand it. Thanks alot dude.
Can't believe it's 10 years ago. This tutorial changed my drumming positively
Wow man! Thanks for sharing and I’m glad I could be of help to you! 🙏🏿
Nick, you make me wanna beat drums again after watching this class Bro lol! Keep doing what you do my guy💪🏾
Ayyye lol! Preciate you bro! 🙏🏿🙏🏿
Love the grooves you play nick.
thanks for watching and for the kind words!
TheBeatSmith - You're right. I promise it will never happen again. I'm just glad we have you to set us straight when we go astray.
Yeah...Right!!!!!
The last minute was SICK
Well, that escalated quickly hahaha loved your grove!
noooo it was a paradiddle diddle... I know my rudiments dude. a six-stroke roll can be started with the accented note or on the diddle. the last thing I did was a 32nd note grid pattern of paradiddle-diddle, paradiddle-diddle, paradiddle and then repeat. Oh and you should probably know that paradiddle-diddles are a NON-alternating rudiment so the sticking you gave in your last comment was totally wrong. Thanks for watching though
Rellay good Drumbeat 🤘🤎😋
Awesome. Love when you go to the stack. Great lesson. Thank you.
It's a 5/4 polyrythm. 5 beats on the left, 4 on the right. I like doing that chop with 5 on the kick and 4 on the right hand.
Bro what's good.. this is Sterling.. mad I'm just finding your page. You're killing bro. Anointed
Thanks dude! Preciate you man
An interesting rhythm and application around the drum set.
Great video and licks👍🏻🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼

I first learnt this many years ago and i love this video this has inspired me thanks
awww man this right hereee....gave me motivation thanks alot man
thanks i watch gospels drummers doing praise break stuff and now i kinda get an understanding for it, cheers im gunna favorite this video for reference
Yo this vid is super helpful. And I like the way you put the hater on blast in the comments
6 stroke rolls, or diddle diddles, can almost always get ya out of trouble, or impress the audience. What did you use to record this? It sounds excellent. I also like how either you were still working on the fill, and explaining it got it down for ya. Or, playing slow, is much harder than playing fast. This is far more useful than 99% of drum lesson vids out there. 2019, just came across this
Bubinga Basher wow thanks so much for the compliment! At the time, it was an iPhone 5 I believe that I used to record this video. Somehow, the otter box case that my phone was in makes the video sound better. lol
Thanks for helping me understand everything man!
Easily one of the best illustrations out there.
mennnn you have mad skillsssss.... be bless
good Job Nick

3:18 This groove
A man told me to love the drum u have to feel the drum
You can play paradiddle-diddles (rlrrll) as a sextuplet (6's) AND as 32nds too. 5 groups of 6's + 2.
yeah i know that. I was talking about the relationship between paradiddle-diddles and six stroke rolls and how I PERSONALLY prefer to think about them in terms of application. Sorry if anything I said was misleading. Thanks for watching.
Great groove, man!
He also did paradiddle diddles for posses the land.
So sweet man ...woo lordy

THANK YOU BRO
That's pretty cool bro
Thanks for watching!!
Nice
Thanks 🙏🏿
how long have you been playing and what do you do to get to where your at
I’ve been playing drums for about 28 years and I’m 30 now. I’ve been playing professionally since I was 16. Check out my drum lessons playlist section for hand exercises for speed, developing technique and precision.
I learn
Im still learning from this bro!
Nice lesson
Thanks for watching
wow
thanks for the support!
Nice!
I used to play my rudiments all the same volume on the drum set like that. I would try practicing making your RLLRRL for your six stroke roll triplets sound more like RllrrL make your accents loud and you double really low cause without that you lose the melody of the rudiment and you end up with a loud mess without a lot of feel.
Great Man!
Thanks for watching!
VERY GOOD SMOOTH MY BROTHER
Great video. ☺️ I just subscribed to ur UA-cam channel. ☺️
Joshua Hall a.k.a. Controlla thank you for subscribing and for the kind words and support!
Thank you!
Thank you for watching!
Dope video bro, it definitely opened my mind up. A bit more clarity in the rudiment section would help, but overall the video was killin..! Keep doing it man #TeacherFirst #CheckinMoreVideos
Thanks for the info ...when you was doing the paradiddle with the ride and the snare, that fast roll you did can go give me the pattern, i watch it over and over but im messing up, can you just write it out for me please...comment the pattern so i can read it
Paradiddle diddle is RLrrll and the six stroke roll is RllrrL. The single strokes are accented while the diddles should be as quiet as possible to get the best cleanest sound. Hope this helps
I be studying Nick...i got videos on my phone from 2009 that i am still studying lol
Love the groove at 5:08! Is there a name for it by any chance?
thanks! there's not really a name for this specific groove. It's just a linear 16th note funk-based groove
A paz do Senhor Jesus que esse música não mudou ainda fala de Deus seu grande amigo fica na paz do Senhor Jesus Cristo fique com Deus ótimo dia para você
That was awesome man..thx
Nick, eu não entendo nada do que você fala. Mas, entendo o que você toca. parabéns pelo trabalho. um grande abraço do Brasil para você. ate mais.
Richard Ribeiro sorry but i don't understand a word you just said
Nick Small That guy says: I don't understand any word on your video but I consider you a great drummer! ;)
cool
Excelente
😍😍😍
Jas thanks! 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
i didn't know stephenson lance played drum
😂😂 thanks for watching!
Lol true...apprently he plays drums and guitar!!! Lol
Hey man!!!! could you please explain a little how you think when tuning a snare??? how tight is the upper head and how tight is the lower on on relationship to it... thanks so much for the video, it truly helps a lot
Rafael Noriega Munoz Hey Rafael thanks for watching! My thinking is usually a medium to medium high sound. Not too poppy but no too low...gives a nice crack with rim shots that cuts through the band. I tune the top head slightly tighter than the bottom head.... i basically approach tuning my snare the same way i approach tuning my toms. Make sure the tone matches the size. I love my snare drum sounding very full but precise. Resonant but not with too many overtones. Hope that helps!
Love that snare. Anyone know what kinda snare that is. Appreciate it
Zeer-oh Grav-i-Tee it’s the stock maple snare that came with the drumset. It’s a Mapex Pro M Fusion snare drum. 5.5x14
It looks like that you (after te "sorry") do something else then later. Is that corect? Like: flam.flam,LRL, FlamLR or not?
thanks bruh
Graciasss!!!
when the diddles speed up, become they rebound strokes ?
+najretuek yes
Yes yoda
love the sound of that snare. What snare are you using?
+Mark Broyles Thanks! I'm using just the stock Mapex Pro M fusion 5.5x 14 snare that came with the drumkit
