Double Lift High Hat Drum Exercises: Part 2

JOEL SIEGEL: All right. So, we've got our--we did our upbeat of two and upbeat of four through our hi-hat lifts. We're going to go ahead and now switch just one beat over with both of them take them across to the upbeat of one and the upbeat of three, okay? So, as you can tell, we're just combining things. We've already done the upbeat of one by itself, we've done the upbeat of three by itself; I'll just put them together. So, what's lining up here? Well, you have your hi-hat. You want the upbeat of one open. So, that means the next beat be two; you're going to be coming down. Okay? Same thing, upbeat of three open, so beat four coming down, all right? This is what we're talking about. Okay? So, what's lining up? You have your hi-hat coming down on two. What else is playing on two? You have your right hand with the steady 8th notes, your left hand with the snare drum with the backbeat. Same thing with beat four, you have the hi-hat coming down with your foot, your right hand and your left hand on the snare drum, all right? Take a listen and see what it sounds like.
