A Sweet Linear Groove – ‘Digital Bath’ – Deftones
Description
This is a sweet groove with a linear theme taken from the track 'Digital Bath' by Deftones with Abe Cunningham on drums. This beat opens up the track and is played throughout the verses. First we are going to look at the main concept and then look at some of the variations that Abe uses throughout the track. I am not aware of the exact sticking, these are just how I would play it. Beats 1 and 2 remain the same throughout the lesson, so get that down first and then have fun trying to work out the variations on beat 3 and 4.
