Working on some chops!

Some footage from my practice session on 16th January.

Bit of fun really, testing out the new camera and good to see the weak links in my technique and phrasing.

Mostly laying down a groove over a click at 120bpm and working on filling using...

6 and 9 stroke rolls with various accents and placements
Hand / Foot combinations (particularly digging LFFR LFRL FRLF FRLx)
Punching awkward 16th note accents
Snare / Tom / HiHat flam patterns
