This is my first project! It is a simple drum loop. I was inspired to make this by hearing the rhythms of the artist Jap in her song "you". I have recently discovered this artist from Japan who speaks Japanese in her music. Anyhow, I used four patterns in the first pattern I went with something somewhat simple, I used only the kick and clap sounds. I used the kick sound in notes six through fifteen, and I used the clap sound in notes two through five and then in notes eight and nine. In the second pattern I used the kick sound in the second though the sixth notes. I used the clap the first and second notes and then the fifth through the seventh notes. I used the high hat the third through the sixth notes. In the third pattern i added a tom to the pattern and also added a ride. I only had the ride clap and tom in this pattern. In the fourth pattern I decided to add another tom and put the kick back in. I worked very hard, and hope you enjoy listening to my first project!

  1. I appreciate the work you put into this, and I also found your post to be rather insightful. The cymbal sounds you chose were appropriate to the style, and I could clearly tell the difference between all of your patterns. Well done.
