learn inward k, then slowly take the breath away

agree with python ^^ how I got it

i can do inward k but somehow not without breath

[wheat fiber]

it won’t come all at once

try to take a way a little bit of breath until you feel comfortable, then take away some more breath

it's not without breath exactly like you shouldn't be able to hum over it like with spit snare which truly requires no breath but rimshot is more like a very short k snare like without the tail so just do your typical k snare but cut the breath off immediately. it might help to practice rolling tkKs where the capital K is rimshot - by doing tkK over and over fast it helps you shorten the tail until its short and sharp

1. Try doing snort bas WITH air
2. Now try doing the same snort bass WITHOUT air - you will just feel a suction and a small click
3. That’s the throt suction you need. Do the same suction pull but pull from the side of your mouth in inward k snare position and you get the rimshot!

ive been trying this sounds for almost two months and cant get it down, even i can do it pretty alright with air, the no air version seems impossible

i hollow my throat (like in hollow clop) while doing it and it sounded like rimshot so i use that

but not sure if it is

I’m honestly not sure if mine is a proper rimshot but the way I learned it is to do a throat kick in the inward k position and then focus more on the click that comes with it

i tried your way and it checked out for me
