The beats we all know

[liv_rong]

I often show this beat to people just starting out or asking questions. I don’t know it all or am perfect at anything but I use what I know to accent the parts of a song. This just shows a few different ways to play the same beat we all know. I regularly mix and match tons of different simple techniques in my parts to make it sound more interesting even though I’m not doing much. This just kind of breaks down a bunch of stuff into 6 different parts. You’ll get the idea.

I can do 4 out of the 6

I'm always fascinated watching drummers do their stuff. It helps no end when programming faux drums. Whenever I'm at a gig I'm not watching the guitarist(s), I'm watching the drummer.

Unless there's a hot chick in the band, in which case, fuck the drummer and everyone else.

So more videos please liv! And anyone else...

I think I can still do some of these - the last one I've got no chance with though.
Watching this really makes me want a drumkit again!

Hmm, I could probably do the bass drum bit - with some time.
I can only get two things going at once so I may manage something else eventually.
I think I was scared and scarred after seeing a film of Ginger Baker explaining/demonstrating his method - may have been Goodbye Cream.

Or in the audience

Messing around with a pattern alternating between the snare and hats. Just a “normal” beat with an attempt at spicing it up.

Still waiting for the Amen Break liv.
