1 2& 4 – Drum kit fill / pattern tutorial drumming lesson for Rock, Funk & Samba
Sponsored links
Another fave drum practice idea that really helps me playing grooves. It’s a fill – or a pattern – based around the 1 + 2& + 4 beats of an 8th note rhythm. Played simply with a single stroke roll – right left – sticking. There are accented notes on the 1 + 2& + 4 – this is also known as the Mambo or Baiao beat and is also happens to be the first bar of a 3:2 clave pattern. The 1 starts on the mid tom. The 2& on the high tom. The 4 on the floor tom. All the other notes are played softly on the snare. Practice it slowly at first then add your favourite bass drum beats. Only speed up when the groove feels good to you. I like the samba bass drum pattern and playing the accents on the 1 + 1da + 2& + 3 + 3da + 4& with a 16th note phrasing. That was enjoyable and I’ll be doing that again. Have a go! If you like it please rate/comment. Gary Moob Simplifier Productions Ltd 2008

Great tutorial, really helped me get into the feel of it the way you kept raising the bpm, i got stuck at around 200!
Also the way you went through it slowly and stage by stage helped a lot

Thanks for your constructive comment. I’ll make any future vid a lot shorter.

Fairy nuff! I wasn’t rattled but I had just spent a day with kids teaching them this and this is how long it takes if covered thoroughly – with emphasis on getting it to groove. Cheers though fellah. hehe
