Welcome to ultimate drumming calm. I'm Joe McCall. I'm going to show you this really great sand and rock beat verse. I'm going to play it for you. I'm going to break it down note by note and show you how it works. What to me beats are played by placing the ads on the right pattern is used in all styles of music including rock, country, pop, funk jazz.

By placing the ads on the ride cymbal, it gives the music a real nice lift, and an upper kind of field. In order to play these speech, you got to be thinking eighth notes. eighth notes are counted one, and two, and three, and four. And now I'm placing the ride, either on the closed hi hat or ride cymbal on the ends only. So here's how it's gonna work. One and two, and three, and four.

And what Two and three, and four, and one, and two, and three, and four. Yeah. The snare drum is going to be placed on beats two and four. I'm going to coordinate the two hands together. One, and two, and three, and four, and one, and two, and three, and, one, and two, and three, and four. And in this be, I'm placing the bass drum on the quarter notes.

So every time I say 123 or four, I'm playing the bass drum. It's gonna go like this. One, and two, and three, and four, and one and three and one Now once you get comfortable with that tempo, you want to pick up the speed a little bit. It's also a great practice to play a couple measures on the closed hi hat, a couple measures on the ride cymbal and get used to switching back and forth between the two. A little faster 123 Another excellent sounding rhythmic pattern that you can add to your drumming repertoire. I'm Joe McCall and Thanks for using ultimate drumming.com
