Have a 6/8 Weekend
Enjoy four patterns in 6/8 along with some drum fill ideas. The first two drum fills are straightforward while the third and fourth explore syncopated crashes.
Remember that in 6/8 timing, eighth notes are counted like we usually count quarter notes (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6) and sixteenth notes are counted like eighth notes (1 & 2 & etc.)
