Supplement 41B & 41C: Hand-to-Hand and Combined Category 1 and 2 Sticking in 4/4 with Ostinatos | Part 2 of 3
These additional hand-to-hand and combined Category 1/2 sticking exercises deepen your grasp of accent-phrase sticking approaches. Push your tempo where you can, voicing the accents on the kit and supporting cymbal notes with the bass drum.
From there, apply one or more ostinatos to the patterns — the goal is comfort with any combination of independent hand and foot rhythm, since these show up across a wide range of musical styles.
