Drum lesson - 17/16 explained! How to play an odd time signature

[@christianbond1561]

Currently learning drums after a long meandering path away. Your videos are on a great level, mindset and cerebral videos are helpful. My wife has various t shirts similar to yours for everyday of the week👍 having 6 daughters I stress intelligent and good hearts first over appearance compliments- I want them to be independent- long thank you but i like what you’re saying to younger female players

Hi Ciara If you want to ‘Geek out’ try playing straight 1/8ths over the bar so it switches to up beat 1/16ths in the second bar as your ostinato and play your regular grooves underneath. Or better still 1/4 note hi hat ostinato which will take 4 bars to resolve and whatever groove underneath. Even better 1/8th note and 2 1/16ths(tea Coffee !) as your ostinato. 4 bars to cycle. The whole point of odd times I thought is not to make them sound odd. All these concepts help you to play 2 bar or 4 bar cycles. I’ve done a video and solo stretching out some of these ideas on KZbin. Check them out !
