Assembly Line
Step #1: Learn the groove series with the ostinato without a metronome
Step #2: Learn the groove series with the ostinato using a metronome
Step #3: Add a crash cymbal on the downbeat of every 4 bars
Step #4: Groove for 3 measures, play simple drum fill, crash, back to the groove
Testing Criteria
Learn and memorize ostinato #5 and apply it to Groove Series A-H. Focus on FEEL, not speed. You need to be able to make each groove feel good at each of the varying tempo levels.
Part 5 Tempo Levels
Level 1: 50 bpm
Level 2: 65 bpm
Level 3: 80 bpm
Level 4: 95 bpm
Level 5: 110 bpm
NOTE: Be sure to achieve Level 4 tempo for Groove Series A-F before moving on to the next lesson. Groove Series G and H have kick drum patterns that may not allow you to reach certain tempos. That’s ok. The purpose is not speed as I said before, but learning it to that tempo will ensure you have worked the material sufficiently. You should keep reviewing the material after you move on until you reach the Level 5 bpm.
