    Description:

    This exercise takes its time going through four basic flam rudiments, working on tap-to-accent relationships and feel before culminating in a grid. Waiting at the end is a challenging flam ram. All the while, the basses provide a laid back groove. Great for full battery warm-ups and for exercising and perfecting the basic flam rudiments.

    Instrumentation:

  • Snares
  • Tenors
  • Basses (5)
