The Amen Break - Slow, Medium & Fast /

#shorts
This one is exactly as described, one of the most iconic drum breaks of all time - The Amen Break! Originally played by Gregory C. Coleman on a track by The Winstons called Amen Brother and then endlessly sampled, recreated and reimagined by drummers and producers! I chose 3 different tempos based on the original track and tracks or genres that have used the break! A lot of you will know this break already but, in my opinion, it's one that every drummer needs to get down! Notation below, enjoy my dudes! Alex

​@@tl1882oh boy, its breakin' time!

[@threadtapwhisperer5136]

Naturally, I tend to drift to 169bpm.
Dont know why I always do.
Hur dur, I have the lamest joke, 4months at least from the OP.
Woot?

Only the real ones know its 174

it's amazing how one little snippet of a song is responsible for two entire genres of music.

For real, never gets old either haha! Alex 👊

[@Adam-g-uk]

Hip hop and dnd🔥🔥

[@1SSJA]

​@@Adam-g-ukno. Hip-hop has its own drums too not just this. He's talking about jungle and breakcore, and dnb (so three I guess)

[@Adam-g-uk]

@@1SSJA bullshit, hip hop was created by djs looping breakbeats on the decks in 1973, if that never happened then jungle / dnb would never exist

[@jackwenn_9693]

@@Adam-g-ukyeah but it wasn’t specificly this beat like it was with jungle and break core. this beat wasn’t sampled in hip-hop until 1983 despite it starting way before that

Your comment is absolutely legendary, people nowadays would yap "BREAKCORE!!! RAHHHH"

[@Ikigai-64]

Slow haves such style. Medium is like a constant in a song. Fast is just the main character that makes the song hit hard and makes me want to play ultrakill.

[@michaelmcglaughlin9383]

That one crash on the and of 3 always hits hard😎🔥

[@ChristopherWoods]

I love this break so much. It's such a shame the original session drummer or The Winstons never made any money from this seminal four bars of drumbreak (the drummer Gregory Coleman died homeless and broke).

[@DrumHubTuition]

Yeah man, that is such a shame! I heard they raised a lot of money for his family through GoFundMe but gutting it was so late! Alex 👊
