Rudiment Stew - Drum Lesson for Hand Speed
This drum lesson combines 3 of my favorite rudiments into one delicious stew, or exercise, lol. Practice it, and then see what you can do with it on the drum kit! - Mike J

What a terrific exercise! It's got such a lovely melody to it too.

YO! Man, I was jamming with it on the kit, moving the lead hand to the toms... it sounded like a song! lol. Have fun with it Z :)
Why aren't you the GOAT of drummers creating content on YT I will never understand, sir. No one comes even close with fun, inventive but also super helpful exercises that actually... well, help develop our playing and vocabulary on a kit. Thank you Mike. Coming from pretty much a hobbyist drummer who still likes to learn new things and to develop.

Reckon he is tbh.
U got me into drums back in the drum lab days! High quality drum lessons for an affordable price was hardly a thing back then, you must have been a pioneer in that space looking back now. I remember some fire lessons on making it sound like double kick with a single pedal, and drag triplets around the kit for a spicy yet easy gospel style fill. Love that I found you here still doing your thing! My old KZread channel still has some vids that I uploaded for some of the lessons lol. I’m sure you’ve helped countless drummers over the years. Keep doing you and much love from an old student back in 2009ish! ❤
Been watching since you taught us how to double pedal with one foot. Thanks man, your lessons are always helpful.

@mikeslessons I still go back and watch "Mike Johnston's Fake Double Bass" video from time to time just because the demonstration you do at the end is actually one of my all-time favorite drum solos lol
watching at work. can't wait to get this one on the pad
Love that this is extension from one you had a bit ago. That one was Paradiddlediddle - Paradiddlediddle - Double Paradiddle - Swiss Triplet Swiss Triplet. You mix both of these together and then you'll really have your brain thinking. Thanks for this Mike!
I can already hear the melody of the drums just from this exercise. It will be saucy lick.
Love it! Thanks Mike!
Super awesome, Mike. It would be great to have an in-depth lesson on your hand and finger technique with close-ups. 😎🤘
You have an amazing gift brother 🙏❤️🥁
Love it so far pretty helpful for both hands lead nice thanks Mike i am been a fan of your stuff you teach I think your are a good drum teacher keep the great work
Great job, thank you for the lesson, #KeepGroovin🎼🥁🥁🥁🥁!!!

Oh man, by day 2 of slowing this way down I can finally do the exercise note for note. I had no idea I sucked at flams but then again never spent much time practicing or playing flams in triplets like that. Awesome exercise Mike! I can see using this as a pre show warm up in the near future!
Sounds great! I have a couple I do that seem to help as well: 1. RLRRLL RLRRLL RLRR / LRLLRR LRLLRR LRLL 2. RLRR RLRR / LRLL LRLL
Another brilliant practise routine Mike, thank you so much for sharing. Also we got a little bonus "shigadaBOOP" too!! 😂👍👌🥁👊

Hi Mike, great exercise. Thanks. What's your practice pad and stand set-up? Sounds good and looks rock solid.

That practice pad is beautiful!

You should throw some inverted flamed mills in there

@@mikeslessons interesting idea! I don't like pads that have two polar opposite playing surfaces, I don't wanna go from one extreme to the other. May I suggest a diameter between 8 and max 10 inches? You aim for the center anyway, portability is key and I don't think snare stand compatability is really necessary...

after drumming for over 20 years, I asked myself why is speed so important? A drummers role is to keep time…listeners can’t groove to speed 😂😂

Thank god that’s not correct. We wouldn’t have punk rock, gospel shout, be-bop, up tempo swing, train beats, drum’n bass, or a ton of other genres if it was. Speed is 100% relative to the genre and the song. Some styles of music require speed and some don’t. Groove on the other hand needs to be present no matter what the genre. Hope this helps :)
