oh dude this was a great lesson, been watching a bunch of your videos to knock the rust off and educate myself properly on these more advanced concepts of drumming. This one made a lot of the stuff I have been practicing click
Thank you Nate. I very much appreciate the method you use to build up to the what-I-might-hear-on-the-radio groove. That is really helpful and easy to follow.
Great video. I love hearing the clave in funk and this will help me in my practices and ideas for beats. Wish you had mentioned the Go-Go/Bo Diddley rhythm which also uses the clave but in it's 3:2 variant, swung and the kick, but I suppose that rhythm is a lot older and more well-known. 😅 Nonetheless, great stuff, man!
Which depending on how you count or bears up the clave.. if you feel it as 2 bars it becomes call and response with creating grooves with clave... it can be split out a bunch of ways ... but also like drum cadence in marching music is a way to do call and response with for example 1st part of groove needs a resolution with a response or contrast.. so the clave works for this too
In thenad old dsys we became these guys from copying all their stuff for tunes... after awhile you could make stuff up in the style.. with enough influnces with this long way of doing stuff we would become our own making up stuff in our style... whats interesting is for awhile you might have ypur own style but within a few years everyone had that style but all the time it would be evolving because time is linear ... 😉 thanks for all the modern history interesting to hear you guys coming up with your take on all of this. Thanks again
you know the drum beat where you mix the cinquillo and son clave and add a skip note just before the second last note? for example it was common in a lot of late 2000s early 2010s hip hop, i e jerk music - an example of this rhythm is in Patty Cake by DJ Sliink - when it gets to the second verse the jersey club kick pattern changes to that _what is this rhythm called? does it even have a name??_
Gary chafee did a bunch of this stuff... but I guesshedidnt call it clave but still cool stuff whatever you call it... when young I became Garibaldi so to speak by learning all his stuff by ear.. all to say history is cool what is old is new etc
