Beginner drum lesson online, exercises and sheet music.

The sheet music of this beginner drum lesson shows some basic beats with Funk slow going and accents on the sixteenths.

Funky music spread across america in the '70's as an heritage from Rhythm'n'Blues; funky patterns, with their accented sixteenths, went on to influence Blues, Rock, Jazz and, in more recent times, Dance music and Hip Hop.
The Funk patterns in the drum sheet are made by a 4/4 measure.
This tutorial for beginner drummers introduces the basic Funk rhythms, in the lessons dedicated to Jeff Porcaro and Steve Gadd you can find transcriptions of other famous Funk drum grooves.

The score splits the staff in two parts: the upper one is dedicated to the hi-hat, the lower one to the combination of bass and snare drum strokes.
Follow the virtual drummer and you will immediately learn the musical notation of the sheet music.
