"And today we are going to be learning how to play a few basic flam rudiments. Now that we know the theory behind triplets and we know what 16 notes are 1 e and a, 2 e and a, 3 e and a, 4 e and a. It is time to learn how to count triplets. Triplets each quarter note there is 4 quarter notes in one bar and a 4 time signature which is what we are doing. Each quarter note gets 3 notes triplets. Triple three right. So the way that you do it there is a couple of ways. The first way people count which I don't like is triplet, triplet, triplet, triplet, triplet or a triplea, triplea, I don't like to do that. I count it like this 1 triplet, 2 triplet, 3 triplet, 4 triplet, 1 triplet, 2 triplet, 3 triplet, 4 triplet, 1 triplet, 2 triplet, 3 triplet, 4 triplet, 1 triplet, 2 triplet, 3 triplet, 4 triplet, 1. After you can feel just in counting 16 notes to counting triplets, triplets are feel more swung. They are not as straight and jagged as 8 notes or 16 notes they feel a little bit more swung or a little bit more of a shuffle. Now that we know how to count our triplets let's go ahead and take a look at what the next step is."
