Hold the kick pattern while delaying the snare until beat four.
01 THE LITTLE IDEA
Here’s the lovely bit.
Listen once, count with the click, then play the displayed pattern. Hold the kick pattern while delaying the snare until beat four. Play voices sharing a position together. Stick choice, limb assignment, and dynamics are not scored. Pattern positions count from 1; 1.5 is the & of beat 1, and 1.25/1.75 are e/a. Closed hi-hat at 1; Kick at 1; Closed hi-hat at 2; Closed hi-hat at 3; Kick at 3; Closed hi-hat at 4; Snare at 4; Closed hi-hat at 5; Kick at 5; Closed hi-hat at 6; Closed hi-hat at 7; Kick at 7; Closed hi-hat at 8; Snare at 8. The pattern lasts 8 quarter-note beats; leave gaps silent.
Today’s little goalPlay the 8-beat pattern at 60 BPM with at least 80% recall and precision.
