Drum Xchange: Singapore Drummer Circle (ALL are welcome!!)

[Darren]

Asia Beat

Lewis Pragasam is in town. He is recording in my studio now. Had a one on one talk with him yesterday. It is strange that somehow you can feel how much of a music man he is, his vibe and all. Am truly honoured.

He taught me to use this alternate triplet sticking, amongst others which I got lost....

RLLRRLRLLRRL

And a way to hit cymbals to make it sound bigger. Cant describe with words what he showed me. But for those who drop by the next time, I will show you what he told me, to the best of my ability of course.

He will be recording drums soon, gonna try and sneak in a camera to record, hope he is cool with it.

Drum clinic - will be great if he does but I aint gonna push it.

Tis triplet pattern are from the drags and ruffs family. Yup, a mastery of tis pattern will work wonders especially in solos and technical grooves..

 

[actorial]

stagestar price dropped...haha! hope it drop more then i can get it...but daniel dun recommand me TAMA kits...not daniel chew....the other daniel i mean ^ ^ i think DW charmelon is a nice choice...can sway the toms around all this...hmm...but hope i got lobang for second hand...haha!! first handed kits are still too much for me now....hmmm.....

Thanks frummer for ur info

doublestorkesg: HDB = headache for drummer basically...hmm...true...haha! but i think there is always a way ba...is mesh head better or those kinda pads? and do bass have a big pad too ? :roll:

 

[doublestrokesg]

but daniel dun recommand me TAMA kits...not daniel chew....the other daniel i mean ^ ^

Haha, I think Mr. Daniel aka 'DNT' is anti Tama in general... He also vehemently advised me against getting Iron Cobras, thus I ended up buying his Pacifics. (Kidding DNT! :lol

but i think there is always a way ba...is mesh head better or those kinda pads? and do bass have a big pad too ?

Nth beats the real stuff... But like i said earlier, the Mesh heads give a more realistic feel compared to rubber pads. My gf's younger bro has a stagestar which he uses with the rubber pads. However, I don't rem it coming with a pad for the BD. But, I'm sure they have it!


Blissuicide: I think it's called a triplet paradiddle... Rem seeing it on a Max Roach transcript before.

Bro, IMHO, they are Six strokes rolls.
Many variations and stikin patterns can be applied tastefuly around the kit with those ammo.
Just my 02cents worth.

 

[drummar-buah]

i guess it's a six stroke roll or a triplet paradiddle depending on where u place the accents. my guess.

 

[chewy]

Yup it's a 6 stroke rudiment. RLLRRL. We were playing it during the exchange. Very common but useful rudiment I must say.

 

[chewy]

Triple paradiddle would be RLRLRLRR,LRLRLRLL, unlike the 6 stroke which is RLLRRL. Uncommonly used too compared to the 6 stroke.

There are even more uncommon ones like the pataflafla and flamacue. You can check it up here: http://www.drummingweb.com/rudiments2.htm

 

[drummar-buah]

is there a diff between TRIPLE paradiddle and TRIPLET paradiddle?

 

[chewy]

I don't think there's such a thing as tripleT paradiddle in standard rudiments. I assumed you meant triple in your previous post. LOL!

 

[drummar-buah]

haha!! okok my bad.

 

[Funkifized]

I use Jeff Queen's book, 'the next level', has all the hybrid rudiments you could ever want. Favourites are cheeses which are flam accents with diddles for accents.

 

[drummar-buah]

cool.. can u post some up?

 

[actorial]

drummarbuah and chewy,

there IS a triple paradiddle in the rudiments.

simply,
RLRLRL RR LRLRLR LL
(grade 4 ABRSM snare grade)

as for triplet paradiddle, i'd think you're referring to playing triplets in paradiddle form.

 

[Darren]

snare grade?

Fwah.....snare also have ABRSM?????? They have it in singapore?

 

[turbochicken]

they don't have snare grading specifically; it's under percussion grading.
