The Holy Grail of drumming! Mine carries the signs of time 🥁 The second part of this series of exercises focuses on ghost notes within a one-handed 16th-note groove. The workout consists of 4 ghost-note combinations, reading and playing 16 bass drum patterns 🥁💪 5/4 Drum Groove + Transcription 🥁🎶 I'm happy to renew my collaboration with the well-known music store @thomann.music. On my "Pro Drum Gear" affiliate page, you'll find 50 carefully selected products to elevate your drumming to the next level 🥁🌟 Discover the story behind "Africa" and how Jeff Porcaro's iconic drum part shaped the sound of this timeless hit 🥁🎶 Few drum parts are as instantly recognizable as "Africa" by Toto, and much of that magic comes from Jeff Porcaro's unique ability to blend creativity, precision, and feel 🥁🌟
