Re: Fill help
Yeah...i would suggest triplets involving the bass and two separate phrases with your hands...
(k t s) (k s 0)
k=kick
t-tom (floor toms are better)
s=snare
0=open hh
If you play these fast in a TRIPLET feel you can create monster fills. Wanna go a step farther? Put these triplet feels into a straight 16th or 8th note segment...really nice.....
I also like playing what i call doubles....its like a 'mama dada mama dada' feel...
Play the mama's with a snare or tom (RL) then play the dada's with your bass drum. this works well with single or double bass players.
If you're playing double bass, the second double would be played on your bass drum. try alternating your foot patterns along with your hand patterns....enjoy....the bold sections are meant for your bass drum...if you dont have double bass, play them all with one foot!!
Ok..here we go...
RL RL LR LR RL LR LR RL
Its simple but its something different than high to low I guess...hope it helps...I'm sure if everyone was honest, we all go through the stages where we get "bored" of our playing...Good Luck!
