  • The 'Funky Diddler' 32nd Note Chop7:18

    In this lesson you will learn how to play the ‘Funky Diddler’ 32nd Note Chop. This fill is very hand dominant and features significantly longer sticking’s than many of the other fills in this course. There is a 16 note mixed Paradiddle sticking in Phrase 2 as well as 11 and 9 note sticking’s in Phrases 3 and 4. The orchestrations within this fill are very satisfying to play as they flow very smoothly around the kit. The accents on beats 2 and 4 give the fill a groove like feel.

  • The 'Brownish Bomber' 32nd Note Chop7:35

    In this lesson you will learn how to play the ‘Brownish Bomber’ 32nd Note Chop. This fill features sticking’s of many different lengths, an even mix of single and double bass drum insertions and is predominantly left hand leading. The orchestrations are a little irregular and disjointed and feel a little bumpy throughout the end of phrase 2 and phrase 3.

    Best of luck playing this fill at a high tempo!

  • The Demi-Semi Trailer' 32nd Note Chop6:52

    In this lesson you will learn how to play the ‘Demisemi-Trailer’ 32nd Note Chop. This fill features five accented Single Paradiddles put together in various orchestrations. Phrases 1-4 link together well to create a pattern that is quite irregular but it still flows nicely around the kit at high speed.

  • The 'Big Kahuna' 32nd Note Chop7:17

    In this lesson you will learn how to play the 'Big Kahuna’ 32nd Note Chop. This fill flows naturally around the kit and is predominantly right hand leading. Phrase 1 features two 7 note sticking’s (RLLRRLR) and Phrase 2 features a 6 note sticking (RRLRLL) with an accent in the middle. The fill is dominated by a 5 note sticking (RLRLL) which occurs five times throughout the sequence. There is also a left-leading sticking going down the toms in phrase 4 that can be a little awkward to play at high speed.

  • The 'Bee's Knees' 32nd Note Chop7:26

    In this lesson you will learn how to play the ‘Bee’s Knees’ 32nd Note Chop. This fill features a range of different length sticking’s (10,5,7,6,7,6,5,2,3,2) separated mainly by single kick drum insertions. It features a high amount of double stroke ghost-notes and an interesting left leading 10 note sticking in phrase one. Watch out for the 6 note left leading sequence that flows down the toms at the end of phrase 3 as it can be difficult to play smoothly. 

  • The 'Brass Bandit' 32nd Note Chop7:12

    In this lesson you will learn how to play the ‘Brass Bandit’ 32nd Note Chop. This fill is predominantly right-leading except for the Paradiddle in Phrase 2. There are a high amount of snare drum ghost notes in this fill and the tom orchestrations flow very naturally around the kit. Watch out for the transition from the Hi Hat to the first tom in Phrase 4 as the left hand will need to come under the right.

  • The 'Trojan Horse' 32nd Note Chop6:45

    In this lesson you will learn how to play the ‘Trojan Horse’ 32nd Note Chop. This fill features a left-leading Double Paradiddle sticking (LRLRLL) played down the toms incorporating the stacked cymbal in the middle. It also features two 6 Stroke Rolls and a series of shorter sticking’s. 

  • The 'Leftenant Cross' 32nd Note Chop7:42

    This fill features a left leading (LRLR) cross-over pattern between the Hi Hat and the Floor Tom which is the same sticking used in the ‘4 Stick Cross’ Sextuplet Chop lesson from the previous course. Apart from being a great sounding chop, this fill will improve your skills around the kit using 32nd Note linear phrasing as well as develop your coordination inserting various kick drum notes within a pattern.

  • The 'Campion Classic' 32nd Note Chop7:00

    In this Lesson, you will learn to play the ‘Campion Classic’ 32nd Note Chop. This fill features a range of mixed sticking’s leading with the right and the left hand as well a mix of single and double bass drum insertions. This chop was written during a lesson with one of my students (Peter) where I was guiding him through the process of how I make up these fills. This is what we came up with during the lesson.

  • The 'Big Rig' 32nd Note Chop7:03

    In this lesson you will learn how to play The ‘Big Rig’ 32nd Note Chop. This fill features a (RLRLL) five note sticking with the middle right played on the stacked Cymbal. This 5 note sticking is repeated five times throughout the fill and is separated by single bass drum insertions. The fill is rounded off by extending the 5 sticking into a 9 note sticking and adding a short orchestration around the toms.

  • The 'Friday Fapper' 32nd Note Chop7:17

    In this lesson you will learn how to play the ‘Friday Fapper’ 32nd Note Chop. These 4 phrases combine nicely to make a unique fill with a few non-linear components. Phrases 3 and 4 feature a high amount of ghost notes and don’t involve any toms. Watch out for the stroke on the stacked cymbal on the second kick drum in Phrase 3 as well. 

  • The 'Paratripper' 32nd Note Chop7:10

    In this lesson you will learn how to play the ‘Para-Tripper’ 32nd Note Chop/Groove. This pattern is slightly different from the other chops in this course as it is more groove-based. It is predominantly right-hand leading and features a RLL sicking as well as various Paradiddle orchestrations. The pattern finishes with a more traditional style chop around the toms to transition back into the beat.
