Welcome to ultimate drumming calm. I'm Joe McCall. I'm going to show you this really cool sound and alternating 16th note rock beat. 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. What do three when playing these alternating 16th note, rock bees You gotta be thinking 16th notes 16th are counted, one E and two E and three E and a four E. And when I'm playing these speeds, I'm playing alternating 16th notes. On the closed hi hat, I'm going to start with the right hand, it's gonna go like this, one, and two, and three and a four, and a one e and a two B and, and a four, and a one e and a two, and a three, and a four.

Now I'm going to take the right hand and move to the snare drum. Every time I get the beats two and four, while still maintaining the 16th notes on the hi hat. It's going to go like this one, and a two, and a three and a four E and one e and a two. No one In this beat, I'm putting the bass drum on the quarter notes. So every time I say a number, I'm gonna be playing the bass drum. I'm gonna combine it with the 16th notes on the hi hat and then the two in the four on the snare.

It's gonna go like this, what and a two and a three and a 40. Now the idea is to get comfortable with that, and then pick up a little bit of speed. What A great way to practice these alternating 16th B's would be to play to measure 16th note beat, Phil, it's gonna go something like this. There it is another excellent rhythmic pattern that you can add to your drumming repertoire. I'm Joe McCall. Thanks for using ultimate drumming calm and I'll see you real soon.
