Drum Lesson: Double Stroke Roll Accents

UPDATE: CHECK OUT MY NEW VIDEO LESSON! I discuss how you can make a funky ride cymbal groove out of a paradiddle.
http://youtube.com/watch?v=hhnwxf2o36c
In this lesson:
I go over how you can pull accents out of a double stroke roll. You can use this in fills, or soloing.
This is my first video lesson, so I would love to hear any feedback what so ever regarding teaching method, the material, or anything. Also, feel free to ask questions. I will be happy to answer them. And let me know if I was in any way helpful! I would love to hear some success stories. Thanks for watching!
P.S. I do not suggest imitating the way I hold my sticks in this video. The right hand was situated in such a way that ended up giving me carpel tunnel, and the left hand has many flaws as many people have pointed out. My doubles also had a very choked sound. I no longer play traditional grip, and have been taught much more appropriate ways to handle the sticks with matched grip that are more healthy and efficient.

The advantages: It ... ( 1 month ago by geekusadrummer)
The advantages: It looks cool, it respects tradition, and physically, you can play with more finess/softer notes with more ease. Disadvantages: it's harder to learn and develop chops. It's more difficult to get around the kit.

Well Done! This RLLRRL pattern (which could be called an inverted paradiddle-diddle) is very useful for playing fast groups of 6 notes. The natural accents on the singles embellish it too. I think the A+B pattern RLLRR LRRLL is better explained as two 5-stroke rolls put together to enable you to play groups of 5 in the space of 4, that is, 20 to a bar of 4/4. Played fast, it sounds like groups of 6! It can also be played all singles. Getting it FEEL RIGHT and natural takes a bit of practice!

I only know how to grip but can't do chops with it (sorry that I'm the nub), I learned it from watching about 30 youtube videos teaching trad. grip and read about 10 websites on it. I asked my teacher(s), 1 taught me what geekusa used (palm up) and the other taught me what I learned from my research but more relaxed, which is what I use now if it's just a simple backbeat or I just want to show off. xD

I'm practicing this now. I've got it down nicely, but havent gained his speed yet, more practice. Very cool roll.
Initially, my hands kept wanting to fall back into a paradiddle. Mind over matter - took it real slow, then after an hour - it registered. I can incorporate it into some cool rolls, or just use it as a continuous snare roll w/ accents. THANKS!
FYI- this roll isnt confined to traditional, I play match & can get great speed on this.
He explains it very very well.
