DLA 04: Mike Mangini fill from 'Hip Today' (Part 1 of 2) Drum Lesson Academy

- Musica
The sticking for this fill is based around a linear five pattern, which consists of 4 hand notes and one kick drum note. You may find it helpful to practice this pattern in a continuous flow of notes
Ex.01 The fill spans the first two beats of a 4/4 measure in 16th note triplets (sextuplets). Here we have the fill leading into a single crash and kick drum note on beat three. Practice slowly at first to ensure you have the correct sticking and subdivision of the pulse.
Ex.02 In this example we have the fill in context with some time. This will create a two bar cycle. Notice how we now have ‘hits’ on beats 3, 4 and 1, which you will hear if you reference the track.
‘Hip Today’ is from the Album ‘Waiting for the Punchline’ by Extreme.
