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: Layering ghost notes onto the clave-influenced kick-and-rimshot pattern from Lesson 57.
This is lesson 97 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, “Full-Kit Crescendo Fill,” covered a fill where the hi-hat, kick, and snare all ramp from ghost to accent together, for a big buildup into the next section. Next is Lesson 98, “Odd-Meter Triplet Fill.”
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.
