Today’s lesson is all about applying the slide triplet to some simple beats to spice things up a bit! You don’t need to use the slide technique; you could also use heel-toe. As long as you have a double bass pedal, you’ll be able to use this concept to easily come up with unique beats and fills around the kit.

Have fun!
