Dave Haddad - World Beat Demo - Arabic 2/4 & Persian 12/8 - Solo Drums

Grooving on an Arabic beat experimenting with a few different variations @ 108bpm. The time signature switches to 6/8 around 4 minutes where various Persian 6/8 feels (probably in 12/8 but the Persians call it 6/8) are demonstrated. Recorded in "The Womb Recording Studio" Lake Balboa, California September 2013.

Hi Mohammad... well it's been 7 years since you left me this comment. During the lockdowns of the 2020 pandemic I found the time to do some drum tutorials. One on Persian Beats and another on a Moroccan Rhythm. Here's a direct link. I plan to do more including a "Most Popular Persian Beats Part 2". Thanks for your interest!!

Hallo sir! Do you have any sheet music for these beats?

[@haddadbeats]

Hello and thank you for your interest in my video. I do not currently have sheet music for these beats however if interested I could write out the beats and give you a lesson on facetime, zoom or skype. If interested plz message me [e-mail].

[@musicioso]

Dave Haddad - CenterPeace i sent you an email. If you didn’t get it take a look in your unwanted folder.

[@haddadbeats]

Sorry... I missed this message.

[@claudiusaftoiu5733]

Nice stuff! I'd say the time signature towards the end is 12/8 though, not 6/8

[@flankerskioneniner4290]

I've been lookin for such oriental beat since 2016, & As far as i know this content is The only oriental groove in youtube.
Thanks.. maybe you can add another instrument to play with.
Bass probably and some Arabian music instrument

[@haddadbeats]

I could do that... would have to make a separate video though. Thanks for watching and for leaving your comment.

Great work, as a non Arab/Persian drummer could you please direct me to a site to get access to the Persian/ Arabic drum notes music sheet!
Eddie

[@haddadbeats]

Thanks for the message Eddie, I am just seeing it now, 4 months later. I wish it were that easy... I don't know of any websites featuring Persian and Arabic drum notation. You might look into private lessons to obtain those.
