Welcome to ultimate drumming calm. I'm Jim McCall. I'm going to show you this really great sand and double shuffle pattern. First I'm going to play for you. I'm going to break it down note by note and show you how it works. A one a two, a three When playing these great sounding shuffle beach, you gotta be thinking eighth note triplets with the right pattern.
I count triplets evenly, evenly, evenly, evenly. The right pattern go like this 1234 evenly, evenly, evenly, evenly, evenly, evenly evenly. Now when I'm playing the shuffle, I'm going to leave out the middle note of the triplet, or the end note. So I'd like this 1234, evenly, evenly, evenly, evenly, evenly, evenly, evenly, evenly. Now saying all those evenly it gets to be a mouthful. So to simplify it, I'm going to count 123 For a 1234 but I have to maintain that triplet feel throughout it's going to go like this evenly evenly 341-234-1234.
In this beat, I'm playing a swing pattern with the right hand or playing the shuffle pattern with the left hand. I'm going to coordinate the two together 1234 bass drum is going to go on beats one, and beats three beats one beats three or something like this. 123 Now the idea is to be able to accent the left hand on two and four, without having to accent the right hand on the right pattern while maintaining the one up and three up with the bass drum. I'm gonna put it all together 123 now once you get comfortable with that tempo, we're gonna pick it up a little bit. It's also a smart practice, to switch back and forth between the ride pattern on the closed hi hat and ride pattern on the ride cymbal. Something like this.
There you have it another excellent sounding shuffle pattern that you can add to your drumming repertoire. I'm Joe McCall and thanks for visiting ultimate drumming calm
