Double Bass

[Aaaidn]

Hey guys, I'm anxiously awaiting the arrival of my new (to me) double bass pedal. Just wondered what sort of exercises I can do?

I figured if I did paradiddles, and triplets that'd help. Anything else I can do?

Also, what songs can I learn, I'm into Lamb Of God so I won't be playing any Adler this minute. So anything else I can?

Thanks,

Aiden.

There's two books I'd recommend for this, "Stick Control" and "The Encyclopedia Of Double Bass Drumming".

If you take the time to really learn each exercise to it's fullest and apply the exercises in different ways, I don't think there will be anything you can't do.

Also, if you're looking for a something to help with coordinating all your limbs together I'd recommend "4-Way Coordination" and Ted Reed's "Syncopation"

+1000 for mentioning "The Encyclopedia Of Double Bass Drumming".....and fact all those books.
