If you’re looking to get into reggae drumming, look no further than Gil Sharone, the author of the award winning DVD and book on Jamaican Ska, Rocksteady & Reggae drumming entitled Wicked Beats. He has played and/or collaborated with reggae legends Eek-A-Mouse and Lee Scratch Perry, Grammy Award-winning Morgan Heritage, Fishbone, Slightly Stoopid, HR from Bad Brains, Dave Wakeling of the English Beat, and Western Standard Time Ska Orchestra.
In this video, Gil gives you 13 essential hi-hat patterns to get comfortable with. He plays them all over a simple one drop groove but you should also try these variations over a steppers and a rockers beat.
You’ll see how changing just the hi-hat pattern can completely shift how the beat feels.
Don’t forget to play these variations over one drop, steppers, and rockers beats.
This video is one of eight parts of Gil Sharone’s course “Exploring Reggae Grooves”. If you enjoyed this clip, check out the full course on Drumeo Edge!

Striped Frog no it’s like saying people from Finland can speak better Spanish than people from Spain. Jamaicans play their own music better than anyone else in this world bud sorry but deal with that fact and you will begin to understand Reggae also don’t be so envious and learn from the Jamaican masters as well

@stripedfrog1122 4 года назад

@@djfrankd1 In my opinion, a Finnish language professor can speak better Spanish, able to know the very details of the laws of the spanish grammar and have much bigger vocabulary than an average Spanish man. So it's better to learn from a pro. Same with the music. I do not think that every jamaican drummer plays reggae better, than any drummer in the world... c'mon! They can play it more authentically, that's the correct phrase.

It's great having the music notation on the screen as you play. I'm trying to figure out the swung beat notation. Is that a sixteenth note rest?

@highestsettings 4 года назад

Nah it's triplets but you avoid playing the middle triplet.

@bassaroo 4 года назад

If you're referring to the one that's swung 16s, then yeah - it's a bit of a confusing notation. It might be clearer to just write all 16s and write “Swing 16s" above the notes. (sometimes I've heard this referred to as a "Funk Shuffle Rhythm"). I believe that it was written out this way so it's easy to see how the notes are played in time, but the notation as is, is a bit unconventional.
