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

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.
