Every drummer has their own go-to vocabulary, whether it comes out on the practice pad or it&#8217;s injected into a pattern on the kit.<\/p>\n<p>Todd filmed a drum solo at Drumeo a few years ago, and in this video you&#8217;ll see some of the cool rudiments he used to build it: flam accents, pataflaflas (&#8220;fun to say, fun to play&#8221;), and flam taps. Once you have the motions, try playing them in succession on the toms and other sound sources.<\/p>\n<p>Check out Todd&#8217;s full drum solo right here:<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/j6NoINimNrw\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><strong>Todd Plays:<\/strong><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/pearldrum.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Pearl<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/sabian.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Sabian<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/remo.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Remo<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.daddario.com\/products\/percussion\/promark\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Promark<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Follow Todd:<\/strong><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/toddsucherman\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Instagram<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/Todd-Sucherman-128960850471267\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Facebook<\/a><\/p>\n<p><iframe class=\"email-form-include-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.drumeo.com\/weeklyemail\" frameborder=\"none\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Check out some of the cool rudiments Todd used to build his Drumeo solo: flattened flam accents, pataflaflas, and flam taps.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":79,"featured_media":17091,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[4034],"tags":[820],"class_list":["post-16996","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-rudiment-applications","tag-todd-sucherman"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.drumeo.com\/beat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16996","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.drumeo.com\/beat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.drumeo.com\/beat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.drumeo.com\/beat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/79"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.drumeo.com\/beat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=16996"}],"version-history":[{"count":19,"href":"https:\/\/www.drumeo.com\/beat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16996\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":49158,"href":"https:\/\/www.drumeo.com\/beat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16996\/revisions\/49158"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.drumeo.com\/beat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/17091"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.drumeo.com\/beat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=16996"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.drumeo.com\/beat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=16996"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.drumeo.com\/beat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=16996"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
