Lesson 93: Inverted Paradiddle Groove

What this lesson teaches: The paradiddle sticking pattern from Lesson 31, with the two voices swapped — landing the accents in different spots than before.

This is lesson 93 of 100 in RockBlocks Drum School, a free, stepwise course where each lesson adds one new idea to the one before it. The previous lesson, Breakbeat in Five,” covered the syncopated breakbeat feel from Lesson 56, now fit into a 5-beat measure instead of straight 4/4. Next is Lesson 94, Independent Limb Dynamics.”

The lesson beat is loaded in the grid above. Press play to hear the loop, or drag the beat blocks to see how the groove is put together, one drum row at a time. Nothing you change here is saved, so every visitor starts from the same pattern.
