Lesson 90: Full Arrangement: Polyrhythms and Ghosts

What this lesson teaches: A polyrhythmic-kick verse, an inverted-accent chorus, and two fills arranged into one song.

This is lesson 90 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, Call-and-Response Fill,” covered a fill built as a short snare phrase answered by tom phrases, trading back and forth within the bar. Next is Lesson 91, Half-Time Double-Kick 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.
