Go Go Beat Variation

Learn this slick variation in the Go-Go Beat style.
The ride bell pattern in this groove borrows the classic Go-Go beat emphasis while the snare keeps the groove moving along with a strong back beat and rhythmic ghost strokes. The syncopated bass pattern compliments the ride.
If you’re having difficulty reading the syncopated notation, take a look at the version below with the counting written out.
