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: A funk/hip-hop-style kick pattern built from sixteenth-note syncopation.
This is lesson 27 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, “The Big Fill,” covered a fill that takes over the entire bar, for a bigger moment than a one-beat tom run. Next is Lesson 28, “7-Beat Groove.”
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.
