Grooves/Exercises for Bass Drum
In this lesson we will work on improving the bass drum foot while playing grooves.
Start by playing these grooves slowly. When you get all the notes, and the groove feels fluid,
start increasing the tempo gradually.
See you next time!
The next few examples are in half time feel, which means that the snare is now on
beat 3, as opposed to the last exercises where it was on beats 2 and 4.
