In this issue..
1) Rock Fills - Using Patterns Of 3 Within 16ths
2) Sign Up for 100 Years Of Drumming Priority List
"Using Patterns Of 3 Inside 16ths As Rock
Fills"
Most of the time
when we learn sticking patterns that repeat after 3 notes, we apply
them to triplets and be done with them. But some of the hippest
fills come from using patterns of 3 within subdivisions like 8ths
and 16ths, where the patterns phrase over the beat. And sometime
over the barline.
Let's take a
basic 3 note sticking that we would typically apply to the drumkit
as a triplet fill..
Using the
same sticking idea, let's now play it within 8th notes..
How about 16th notes..
We can even play both hands at the same time,
which means we can split them between 2 drums..
Once again, in subdivisions other than triplets..
