4/4
Drag rhythmic values into up to 4 beat blocks per line to build a drum groove, or click a tile then click a block to place it — handy on a trackpad.
What this lesson teaches: Landing the kick and snare together on beat 3 instead of spreading them across the bar.
This is lesson 22 of 100 in RockBlocks Drum School, a free, stepwise course where each lesson adds one new idea to the one before it. The previous lesson, “Odd Grouping: 3+3+2,” covered splitting a bar of eighth notes into groups of 3+3+2 instead of four even beats. Next is Lesson 23, “Disco Four-on-the-Floor.”
The lesson beat is loaded in the grid above. Press play to hear the loop, or drag the beat blocks to see how the groove is put together, one drum row at a time. Nothing you change here is saved, so every visitor starts from the same pattern.
