Non-Standard Open Hats

By Nate Brown

The open hi-hat technique is often used to create an off-beat feel or to accentuate a particular stroke or two. These 8 groove examples incorporate 4 unique open hat patterns that instead create a rhythmic layer on top of the grooves.

After learning these beats and hi-hat patterns, try applying the patterns to some of the drum beats that you commonly play.
