My teacher gave me some comp exercises where you keep a swing beat and read music to see when to hit the snare, the bass drum is empty and he told me to place the kick on 1, then 2, 3 and finally 4 (not 4 on the floor). Has anybody done this before? Quite tricky.
Sometimes I feather the bassdrum and accent the placement note but other times it’s pretty hard and I have to only hit it on the correct beat.
Let me know if there’s some easy tricks to learning this. Thanks.
