It’s time to get your Hi-Hat foot busy! This lesson covers gaining some independence with your hi-hat foot while playing grooves. We start off simple by applying steady quarter notes to the hat. Enjoy.
I think this is the single most important lesson I have posted! Finding the groove of a song is crucial to being a professional drummer. This is a subject I feel is rarely discussed but extremely important! In this lesson I'll demonstrate the concept of playing on top of the beat, playing behind the beat, and locking dead on with the click. Hope this helps you find your groove....Enjoy!!
In Part 2, it's time to expand our rhythms to include the 1st & last triplet for the beat. This opens up a lot more great groove ideas for us to explore. Don't forget to download your own PDF file from the lesson. Enjoy!!
Here’s a lesson that covers a few variations on the basic Songo Groove…..Enjoy!!
