Welcome to ultimate drumming calm. I'm Joe McCall. I'm going to show you this really cool sound and rock and roll beat. First I'm going to play for you. I'm going to break it Now note by note and show you how it works. One e and a two and a three and a four.
These great sound of rock and roll beats are called eighth note rock and roll with 16th note variations. I'm actually playing a combination of eighth and 16th notes on the bass drum. Even though the pulse is on the eighth note, in order to get the 16th notes in the right spot, you got to be counting one e and a two e and a three and a floriana. While playing an eighth note, right, go something like this one e and a two e and a three and a four E and a one e and a two E and a four E and a one e and a two E, three E and a four E and four. In this great sound and beat I'm placing the bass drum beats one, three, e and a three. Once again, that's beats one, three E and the ah of three.
I'm going to coordinate it together with the right hand playing eighth notes. One e and a two e and a three and a four and a two e and a one E, two e, three and e and a two e and a three E. Now I'm going to add the left hand on beats two and four. I'm going to put it all together. One e and a two e and a three and a four E, and o Now once you get comfortable at that tempo, we're gonna pick up the speed a little bit. And it's also smart practice to move back and forth between the ride pattern on the closed hi hat and ride pattern on the ride cymbal, something like this. Another excellent sounding rhythmic pattern you can add to your drumming repertoire.
I'm Joe McCall. And thanks for using ultimate drummy.com
