Throughout our previous courses, you have seen many examples of 8th note and 16th note grooves - the very foundation of countless songs. We will add popular 16th note groupings to the hi-hats for the first time to give you some more musical ideas. We've intentionally kept the bass drum simple and consistent in the video examples.
