We are checking out a fun rhythmic trick used in some big songs
What Can Drummers Learn From P!nk & Miley Cyrus?
Wait, what? A drummer website talking about P!nk & Miley Cyrus? Can this be t rue?
YES!
In this drum lesson we check out a fun little rhythmic technique that appears in Pink’s ‘ ‘Never Gonna Not Dance Again’, Miley Cyrus’ ‘Flowers’ and Theo Katzman’s ‘Be The The Wheel’. They are all at it and we should understand what it is.
We also check out a similar musical device in Phil Collins’ ‘In The Air Tonight’. And we finish by jamming with a track to develop fills that go over the bar line. That’s a lot to cover but it’s fun and I think you’ll like it.
Watch the video below and then scroll down to grab the drumless track so you can practice playing over the barline.
