Why does every PRO DRUMMER use this Rudiment??!

[@dah_veed01]

Thanks for the shout my bro❤️🙏🏾 Happy new month tochers!😂❤️

[@TochSticksMusic]

My man! You're amazing.❤️ I noticed I forgot to state that you started on the "A" of 1.. But it's all good I guess😅🤦🏽‍♂️

[@TochSticksMusic]

Tochers?! 😅 Wow we have a name now😂 Happy New Month to you too brother

[@uduakebong2138]

I guess I’m late to this video but Calving Rodgers played the never again by James Fortune. Because I heard “Calvin let’s go” at the beginning 😃😃😃

[@TochSticksMusic]

No you're not late & yes you're correct! It's Calvin Rodgers that played the song.

[@pdxdrumtech]

Great explanation and demonstrations of the various orchestrations for the paradiddle diddle. Excellent excellent excellent!

[@TochSticksMusic]

Glad it was helpful! 🙏🏼 ❤️

❤❤❤ bro I’m subscribed I wanna take my drumming life serious

[@Akanimoakpan-og7uf]

Calvin Rogers was the drummer on the track(never again)

[@TochSticksMusic]

Yes he was!

[@iam_Erefaa]

Never forget the must phenomenal ❤❤ drummer 🔥🥁🥁⚡ Toch sticks

[@Thequornsdrummingworld]

Yeah thanks Toch, that is cool with all those orchestrations. Off course this is a six note pattern which one could think of as representing the 24th note or sextuplets subdivision, which is a major subdivision in contemporary drumming. So I guess it is no surprise as such that it is so cool, but, the Paradiddle-diddle sticking itself with two singles and two doubles lends itself to a potential for some serious drumming chops. However if you want to turbo-charge it, I would suggest this addition. Currently we have a group of 6 notes RLRRLL, so I would suggest staying within that subdivision of sextuplets as a group of six within one quarter note pulse with the addition of two grace notes on the bass drum at the start of the phrase like this (k=kick): kkRLRRLL Still played as a six note group but adding those two grace notes at the beginning on the bass drum, it like turbo-charges the phrase with the low end from the Kick, and combining hands and feet gives it an even more powerful orchestration, as it becomes a RuffParadiddle-Diddle. You can think of it as a ruff rudiment but played with the bass drum like kkR. That three note figure kkR is one quarter note. Therefore with the whole phrase of kkRLRRLL, one can use all the orchestrations around the drums in the video, but you will get two extra bass drum notes in the phrase for a whole other dimension of punch, power and bottom end. At a fast tempo playing around the drums it give you a lot of chop bang for your buck. Try it and see, I guarantee you will love it!

[@TochSticksMusic]

Man! 😅 I can imagine how long it took you to type this. I initially didn't get it, but by the time I did, I discovered that I use it very often. I just forgot to teach it in this video. Thank you so much for your contribution. It's really appreciated! ❤️

[@Thequornsdrummingworld]

@@TochSticksMusic No worries did not take long as I am on my laptop and just typed it in Word then cut and paste into the thread, you should make an amendenment to the video cause it is super cool with the kick 🙂

[@TochSticksMusic]

I'd cover that in another video man! ❤️ Thank you! 🙏🏼

[@AnKlMa]

Hey, maybe you could also do a video on backbeat fills, the ones where you keep the 2 and 4 backbeat while doing the fill. Like the one you did in 7:43.

[@wesleyhaye7564]

Love your teaching approach. ¡Gracias!

[@TochSticksMusic]

Glad to hear that! You're welcome! ❤️

[@ComfortOforiwaa-pr7dr]

[@AJ-jy6lb]

6 stroke rolls always seem to work well, no matter what sticking pattern you're using. Travis Barker is HEAVY on the single tap - (R) double (L) double - single tap, 6 stroke. The great thing about that one is, you can throw a single paradiddle on the lead hand and switch leads. 6 stroke right lead, right handed paradiddle, 6 stroke left lead, left lead paradiddle, ad infinitum. "Life's a bummer if you're not a drummer" :o)

[@TochSticksMusic]

Yes man! They always work! ❤️

[@8020drummer]

I knew it! And substituting the kick for the last stroke

[@SeyramLetsu]

Hod blessyou bro!! Ive been wanting to learn this for ages. Ive always wondered what these guys were playing and have found 8t difficult to break down but you made it so simple. Here in Ghana, lots of the drummers dont want to show orteach us these things because some of them think you will out play them or become more popular than them but you are sharing freely. They'll rather make you pay for lessons and they wont teach you some of these. God bless you. I'm going back to practice.

Excellent video, I just subscribed ! Thanks for this material bro!

[@TochSticksMusic]

Thanks for the sub! &you're welcome! 🙏🏼 ❤️

[@lt.frankdrebin3317]

Informative video, but I have to say - you should use felts and hold-downs on top of your cymbals. This is how key-holing happens. That hole in the cymbal is allowed to move at too much of an angle to the cymbal holder and if enough force is present, a crack occurs.

[@TochSticksMusic]

I understand man... I don't have them. I'd get that fixed soon.

[@victorinoa5673]

Thank you very much for this lesson I wish I could be better than I am because I am very beginning

Just take things gradually and be patient with yourself! You'd definitely grow. Stay consistent most importantly!

[@chidieberedaniel_]

That Drummer on Never again 😩😩😩I’m suspecting it’s VARO

[@TochSticksMusic]

Yeah! Varo played on so many live outings but, Calvin Rodgers plays the main song. James fortune even said it "Calvin Let's Go"

I think they are using a rimshot for the accents on the diddles?

You could do that too

[@lowaimnobrain]

rl rr ll feels very clunky to me for some reason! It's the only rudiment i've come across that didn't feel great to play or give me tons of ideas straight away. Compare to paradiddles and 6 stroke rolls especially. I need to spend some more time on it for sure.

[@TochSticksMusic]

Sure man! You just need to spend more time with it. It gets better over time with consistent practice.

[@ivanbajovic3476]

Is paradiddle-diddle different from six stroke roll?

[@Bongo808]

Yes and no, lol. It really depends on how you learned the 6 stroke roll. I learned the 6 stroke roll. RLLRRL with accents at the beginning and end. The paradiddle diddle just switches things up a bit with regard to the two accented singles. If you already know the 6 stoke roll the paradiddle diddle should come pretty fast and it will allow you to place the accented notes in places that you may not have with the 6.

[@ivanbajovic3476]

@@Bongo808 Thanks mate!

[@Bongo808]

@@ivanbajovic3476 No problem 😉 Thomas Lang learned 6 stroke rolls differently than I did and the way he learned them is even closer to the Paradiddle diddle. I think the way he learned them was RRLLRL JUST A PDD backwards lol it all works and gets you accents in different places when started in each of the different styles. I love the versatility and creativity of drumming. I’d better, I’ve been doing it over 50 years. Ha ha ha
