Hello my name is Aaron Moon and I’m here today on behalf of expertvillage.com and I’m
going to be discussing a few different rudiments you can use with your hand drum. Now if you
play drums you’re going to already be familiar with a few rudiments, what I’m going to
illustrate today is a single and a double stroke roll, a flam, a flam tap and a paradidle.
Now basically these rudiments are going to be the same except you’re using your hands
you’re not using a stick, with a stick you can produce a rebound which is just going
to snap off the drumhead with the pressure that you apply with the stick in your hand.
With the Djembe you have your right and your left hand and you don’t have the advantage
of the stick, so single stroke roll fairly simple same idea it sounds like this. You can get faster with it and get faster,
that’s basically your single stroke roll and you can keep that at a steady temple,
you can speed it up, keep it at your sped up speed and you can slow it down, you want
to try to keep it even just like you would with a stick on a sneer drum.
