Hi, welcome back. Week 10 drum lessons music. This week, we're going to work on taking our drum fill and placing it in the right place in the arrangement so that it lines up with the beginning and ending of different sections. So we're going to place our one bar drum fill at the end of a four bar phrase. Now music is divided up most commonly in four bar phrases. When you first start learning it, a lot of counting is involved in making sure that you're always in the right place.

But I promise you that after you play for a while, you're just going to feel we're four bar phrases are and if you listen to almost any Popular Song Written in the last 80 years, you'll hear that where things tend to change is at the groups of four bars. So we're going to be playing three bars of the regular rock beat And then playing our one bar fill, which is this. So it's really important to count along in your head. Even counting out loud while you're practicing is a great way to go about it. I'm just going to show you one time quickly 123 and here comes our fill. One of the things that we're going to work on is coming out of the fill and right back into the part.

So the end of the fill. That kick drum that's going with the crash symbol is the beginning of the next bar. So as soon as you play this ready to go like that. You're having trouble lining them up. The best way to practice it is to go really slowly like this. Go kicking, crash together and then right away to the hi hat.

One more time. Like everything else we're doing, it's a lot about coordination and getting the information into your body. So remember to keep reading, keep focused on what's going on, but try and remember that the information has to get deep into your body before it's really going to be able to come out in your playing. One of the things you can work on playing this fill with the open position as well. So try these different things out in the practice video and on your own. Alright, we'll see you in the practice video.
