Welcome to ultimate drumming calm. I'm Jim McCall. I'm going to show you this really great sounding double shuffle pattern. First I'm going to play for you and I'm going to break it down note by note and show you how it works. A 123 When playing these great sounding shuffle beach, you got to be thinking, eighth note triplets with the right pattern. I count triplets evenly, evenly, evenly evenly.
The right pattern go like this 1234 he then Lee evenly, evenly, evenly, evenly Eve evenly even. 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'll go 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 Three, four, a 1234.
But I have to maintain that triplet feel throughout. It's going to go like this evenly evenly 341234123, a four. And this great sounding shuffle beat. I'm playing a swing pattern with my right hand, all playing the continuing shuffle pattern with my left hand. It's going to go like this right hand, one, a two, a three, a four, a one, a two, a three, a 123412341234. left hands gonna be playing on everything I say. Like in the shuffle pattern.
What I do a three a four. Oh, I'm going to coordinate both hands together. Now like the other shuffle patterns, you want to try and accent the two and four with the left hand without affecting the volume of the right hand. So it's gonna go like this, a one, a two, a three, or four. I'm going to add the bass drum on beats 1234123 Now once you get comfortable at that speed we're going to pick up the tempo. It's smart practice to play a couple measures with ride pattern on the closed hi hat, a couple measures ride pattern on the ride cymbal and switch back and forth something like this.
There it is another excellent sounding rhythmic pattern you can add to your drumming repertoire. I'm Joe McCall. Thanks for watching and visiting ultimate drumming.com
