3 Useful Lofi Drum Patterns (that changed my life)

[@Urlocalgoogleuser]

Timestamps 0:47 Super chill pattern but it has an ambient character to it 3:32 Final product 4:22 Pattern has some crazy groove in the kick (little bit trickier but your life will change) 7:01 Final product 7:20 Pattern is all about the shaker (good for a faster pace yet chill lo-fi beat) 8:46 Final product

[@urponatore]

The last one is your standard metal beat btw

[@EsaShaheed]

In addition to swing. It's always nice to offset your drums too, the snare especially

[@darkkitchenrecords2625]

Not always, on pattern 1 shown above, offsetting the snare results in a dissonant rhythm because the hihats are offset as well

[@GeoffreyDabner]

You’re a nonamer

[@EsaShaheed]

@@GeoffreyDabner you too my nigga

[@EsaShaheed]

@@darkkitchenrecords2625 yes, not always, that will obviously sound off time, and what I'm talking bout isnt a huge offset, just a very small nudge

[@thisiskylewilliams]

I like this lesson but lemme clear up some vocab for ya'll. The words beat and bar were being used interchangeably, but in a 4 bar phrase in 4/4 like this you have 4 beats per bar and 16 beats in a 4 bar loop. Counted properly, that ride rhythm isn't a triplet but 3 dotted eighths (eighth and a half) starting on the off-beat ( dead center between beats of a bar) of beat 1 of the bar. Small thing but important difference if you want to communicate that since if you try to use a triplet grid to write that rhythm you'll need to bump things up to 12 divisions per beat/48 divisions in a bar to find the right spot. Also the "... second kick in between.. whatever.. these thick lines here", that's hitting on the off-beat of 2.

[@MattHall]

Yeah, this important. If you start mixing these words up while working with other people it’ll really confuse the situation.

[@woody4269]

Well said mate. He lost my enthusiasm with the..'whatever these thick lines are'. Considering there's 168 thous subs, its probably just me.

[@skandababy]

hilarious!

[@TheToneWork]

But it's so cool to sound like you don't know anything about what you're doing. Way less try hard. Like calling something a fourth note instead of the standard quarter note. Alex knows a ton, no doubt, and this was a super helpful video for a lot of people, but knowledgeable about music terminology is not a high priority (it seems).

[@woody4269]

Congrats Rich

[@musomaster9027]

Thanks for this. Question: why do you have each drum instrument on an independent track rather than having one drum kit track with the whole beat within? Is it easier to work with or just easier to show your working on camera?

[@XanderMohan]

It means that u are free to assign different plugins to different parts of the kit slightly easier. Like you might wanna compress your bass drum a lot, and maybe add a tape delay (Led Zep style). You can eq and edit the sounds within one track normally (depending on the drum machine ur using) but it's more problematic when u want to add certain effects. So separating them out makes it easy.

[@TanoshiSan]

I would 100% recommend all producers who are using midi for their drums to stay away from using drum kits, you can accomplish the same end results doing it either way but when you have independent tracks for each part of your drums there's a mindset shift of being really intentional on how each part of the drums is being processed (eq/audio effects/ect). Drum kits are still very useful for people who want to use drum pads for live performances or just experimenting
