8 Beats Every Student Should Know
Eight one-bar drum beats on a single A4 sheet, from a straight rock beat to trap.
Every beat is a step grid. Sixteen squares, count along the top, a coloured square is a hit. Students read it the same way whether they’re playing it on chairs, on a kit or programming it in a DAW step sequencer.
