Here's another lesson involving ghost notes in a groove. Today we're going to phrase them as 16th note triplets...pretty cool sounding stuff! Not to mention a great workout for the left hand. Hope you enjoy.
This is a follow up to our Opening Hi-Hat Grooves Introduction Lesson. Here we're going to explore playing the kick drum underneath the hi-hat. We're also going to move to the ride and use our left hand on the open hi-hat as well.
Mike Johnston shows a really cool way to play a double bass groove with one foot. It's basically built around a 32nd note double stroke roll between the kick and right hand(deepest floor tom), and when sped up, sounds really cool!
Here's Felipe giving a lesson on how he began applying the left foot clave to his playing...this is great stuff!! Enjoy!!

I love how he just breaks everything down in such a simple fashion, it's very easy to understand whether you have the vocabulary or not. What's really cool about this groove is that it starts out sounding like a funk groove, but later as he speeds it up it turns into a breakbeat. Tell me what you think. http://toddwalkerdrumstudio.com
