Today's lesson takes a look at the basic Afro Cuban 6/8 groove. We're going to break this groove down by working on the hands first and then bringing in the kick drum to complete the groove. Anything involving triplets can be challenging and this groove is no exception. Don't forget to use the PDF download as a reference for the sticking. Enjoy! |
