Learning how to play half-time beats is essential for any serious drummer. Especially if you play a lot of rock related gigs. The big difference here is the way the beat relates to the music. Instead of the pulse being on the two and four counts, it is only on the three count.

  • Excellent demo. Thanks. One thing I would have liked, though, is the insertion of a couple of "full time" beats to contrast with the half time. e.g., at the very beginning, hearing a full time beat with snare on 2 and 4 before you moved the snare to 3. But, I get it anyhow! Thanks for the great work and for sharing.

  • great job!!! very nice :)
