Hi all! I just uploaded a brand new YouTube lesson this morning. It’s all about developing an up/down motion to add accents to your hi-hat 8ths. Then choosing whether accenting “on” or “off” the beat, or keeping your 8th notes consistent, will best suit a song.

No.51: “RRLR LLRL Fill”

This one bar fill was created by playing around with the RRLR LLRL inverted paradiddle sticking. See what you can come up with using that sticking or any of the other paradiddle inversions. Have fun!

No.50: “D.Garibaldi Inspired Groove”

What do you think of this pattern? I came up with it a few weeks back. It’s clearly inspired by David Garibaldi, though not intentional. Not only due to the syncopation and intricacy, but also the open hats in the middle referencing “The Oakland Stroke”. ... See MoreSee Less

No.49: “Motif Based Fill”

This one bar fill is made up of a fairly simple motif that occurs twice. The motif starts on beat 1, but because it lasts for three 8ths, it is then repeated on the “&” of beat 2. From beat 4 I chose a slightly different pattern to wrap up the fill. Have a go, then see what fills you can create using this idea of using a short motif.

No.48: “Four Bar Groove with Extra Cowbell!”

This groove throws some cowbell notes into the mix, in place of what could have been snare ghosts. The pattern does not have to be played left-lead. You could use an x-hat, stack or ride on your right side with a cowbell on your left, and play it minus the hi-hat openings. If you like the sound of the groove, the main thing is to take the overall vibe and concept of the pattern, then come up with your own ideas. Have fun!
