THE SAMBA

THE SAMBA is a rhythm from Brazil and this is one of my many interpretations of The Samba.
I am playing the following:
Feet: I am playing constant Sixteenth Notes between my two Hi-hats and my double bass drum pedal to create a "full" sounding Samba feel.
At the beginning I am simply playing some improvised patterns around the drumset with my hands on top of this Samba foot ostinato (repetitive pattern)
Right Hand: I am playing what I refer to as "The one-hand Songo technique", which is very similar to a Mozambique cowbell pattern and is played between the main cowbell and the snare drum.
Left Hand: I am playing improvised "Brazilian" influenced patterns on the Mini-Timbales against "The one-hand Songo rhythm". I then play a standard Mozambique pattern between the main cowbell and the tom toms.
These phrases are repeated a couple of times and then I finish off by playing a 3/2 Son Clave against "The one-hand Songo rhythm".
