The Rhythm(bot) is gonna get ya!
https://rhythmbot.app/ I'm posting this since I mentioned it to @Korey Kingston Horn and think it'll be helpful to all of us. It's a web app by JP Bouvet. I use it to generate endless measures of phases to work on my sight reading. I also use it during lessons and adjust the difficulty depending on the student. I haven't explored it indepth but I bet anyone can benefit from it. Here's a summary from the site: RhythmBot is a rhythmic vocabulary trainer designed to assist musicians in enhancing their timing and rhythm skills. Developed by Jamie Howard and JP Bouvet, this practice tool offers a variety of rhythmic exercises and patterns to help users improve their musical proficiency. https://rhythmbot.app/

Super Charged High 5's
Shout out to @Brian Blass for bringing this cool clip a while ago. Here's a transcription of a Johnny Mathar insta reel. He's playing "Tony Williams 5's" on the hihat over a busy (but not too hard IMHO) beat. He plays it at 150BPM, too fast for me 😅. The tricky part was figuring out where the 1 was. So I went off the 4 click count as one bar of quarter notes. Which puts the "back beat" on 1! I also wrote it as it would look with the back beat on 3. Placed a link to the reel and uploaded the downloadable video. This was more a transcribing exercise than actually trying to play it, but would love to see the C&C take a stab at it! https://www.instagram.com/reel/C8sKszhskpD/?igsh=aHpmbDI0dTIzc24w

Super Charged High 5's
Diddle did I know...
Here's a warm up/ exercise I got hip to last year by Tim Metz (West coast jazzer). It's two single paradiddles followed by a paradiddle-diddle. It takes 7 measures for it to repeat. (Play exercise as many times as you like). The goal is to be able to count the quarter note pulse and not the accented rhythm this combo produces. It's a hand exercise but I like to add a foot ostinato ( 4 on the floor and hihat on 2&4). Then you can do it with single, single, double paradiddle to alternate hands throughout the warmup.

@Zachary Najor yeah! I know they’re not really for drum set purposes, but the drumming police can’t stop me! Lol
Jeffery’s practice on Chad Wackerman work out.
Here’s a separate share on the thread. Before it was a reply to my video. But I’m wanting everyone to share videos to this thread category. 😊 nice work Jeffery!! https://www.skool.com/drum-brigade/what-are-you-working-on?p=e01cfef6

Here's a clip of me taking the Chad Wackerman warmup and trying to orchestrate it on the toms. I added a jazz foot ostinato to get the whole body involved.

150 characters doesn't seem like enough to complete this Bio and yet, here I am drawing a blank on what to write. Now it's down to 16! I'm a goof...
