Hello folks
Well as I don't have a good professor, sometimes, I need to ask a few questions such as this one. (actually DW might be the ultimate teacher)
I want to know if there some kind of target BPM speed associated with each of the 40 rudiments? A minimum speed limit to say, YES i can do it with the accents, it's stable and it's fast enough. (I am not talking about distributing it on the kit but playing it on a practice pad, for the moment)
The first 2 categories, the single stroke rudiments and the drum roll rudiments from #1 to #15, I think it's possible to gain impressive speed with theses, I am not too concerned. We often see a drummer showing off his doubles skills, it can be very fast.
But for the other sections such as the Paradiddles, flams and drags.. these are more complex and it's difficult for me to fix a standard BMP target for each of them.. example the single flammed mill #25... what should be my goal for that one or the Inverted Flam Tap #29?
For the Paradiddle, I hear them often in jazz, so I have a slightly better idea, at most.
If you have an advice.
Thanks.
