On this page the grooves have been extended to two bars long. I have also included variations on the right hand so these grooves start to get quite complicated.
Example 1
Example 2
Example 3
In this example the right hand plays the floor tom, notice that both hands are written in voice 1 here.
Example 4
Missing out one of the kicks creates quite a nice effect.
Example 5
TASKS
- Learn the grooves above up to a tempo of at least 140bpm.
- Experiment with different right hand patterns over each kick and snare pattern.
