This Rudiment Should Be Used More In Your Drumming!

Like all rudiments, the paradiddle-diddle can sound awesome on the drum set in a groove context! But whatever you do with it, remember: rudiments are the building blocks of the drumming language. It’s how you speak it that makes it yours!

Probably one of the most useful rudiments is the paradiddle-diddle. The paradiddle-diddle starts with two singles and ends with two sets of doubles. In this video, Glen explains that the right-hand part of the pattern is like the reverse of a standard jazz ride pattern, where you just fill in the missing notes with your left hand. And if you try playing it as triplet 16ths on the hi-hats, adding a snare on 2 and 4 and the bass drum on 1 and 3. This could also make a cool and subtle hi-hat backbeat fill.

All in all, there are so many creative and amazing things you can do with the paradiddle-diddle which is why this rudiment should be used more in your drumming!
