02/03/16 session 2

The technical study for the next two weeks will be herta's. A single stroke sticking comprising of four notes. They are  great chops builder and way to spice up your fills! The first three ex's are 16th note combinations. When you are comfortable with these try the triplet variations. Remember to start slow, try splitting over multiple surfaces to improve your dexterity, practice to a metronome so you can measure your progress and play them in a fill and groove context. 

We are also looking at linear warm up 2. 

This is like linear warm up 1 but moving the bass drum to the second 16th note. Take your time with the basic sticking. Practice to a metronome. When you're comfortable start playing over two surfaces or have a look at the groove variation (ex 3) 

We are also looking at Arlandria by the foo fighters. You all have a copy of this chart. Take care coordinating the bass drum in the 1/4 note grooves in the pre chorus and chorus. Count carefully! 

Take care with the 16th note fills!!
