Samba Angola Application
I first heard this rhythm on a CD by Daniela Mercury, a wonderful musician/vocalist from Salvador, Bahia, Brasil. The drumset player was playing this pattern on the hi hat with the bass drum playing quarter notes.
I’ve added a typical samba bass drum pattern with HH on the “ands” of the beats.
As you can see, I’ve written this pattern on snare, to accentuate the coordination work.
You can then apply the sound to the hi hat.
You can stick this pattern as hand-to-hand (r l r l …) .
I chose another sticking pattern, which is written here.
As always, enjoy!
