THE CELLULAR PRACTICE CONCEPT
If you missed our introductory post for this practice concept, be sure to read through it here.
FLAM TAP DISPLACEMENT EXERCISE
This exercise is designed to develop both hand dexterity and pattern displacement. By shifting the flam taps forward by a sixteenth note, we end up with an interesting and more challenging way of practicing the rudiment.
Because of the cellular practice sequence, we explore a variety of options for playing the original and the displaced version. This helps improve flexibility based on context, allowing you to truly internalize the rudiment rather than just playing it.
