2 days later after you posted this video, I finally figured out how to play it. The trick is that the left hand (e's and a's) really drives the syncopation, as that's where the Kick drum beat starts and the snare accent lands. I wrote out the rhythm: 1 e + a 2 e + a 3 e + a 4 e + a R R R R R R R R L L L A L L L L K K K K
Hey Rob, thanks man for everything. I strongly recommend you get the line "Ain't no need for no PDFs." put on some merch. That is the line of our times my friend.
Brother you are such a humble person and a Monster of a player!!! What is there not to like about you? I'm willing to bet nothing. Much love and respect Brother and I would love to meet you sometime. I'm not a chop monster. Just mostly a time keeper trying to deepen my pocket and trying my best to become a much better player than I am now. I was self taught. I grew up jamming along with Vinyl records of all genres of music. But mostly R&B Mowtown, southern rock like the Steve Miller band. Fly like an eagle was my favorite song to play along with. I have played in every state on the exception of Hawaii and Las Vegas. I've played with and toured with a lot of Artists out of Nashville, TN and Have played in Japan and North and South Korea on a USO Tour. Anyways man take care of yourself and many blessings and thanks for sharing these awesome video's!!!
Backbeat ! So playing traditional feels really good for this groove especially with the subtle ghost notes being able to really control. Played both match and traditional and man just feels great all around but traditional wins for me here.
Rob this outstanding like the rest of your videos . I mean I watched a few other Latin groove videos with several rhythms which was a fantastic but a lot to digest .Your approach is to starting slow with the songo is a great introduction. Man I am in the book business as man you should think about a book!
Hello Mr Rob Brown. I live in Austria and I really enjoy watching your videos. I'm particularly interested in this video. Since I'm more of a beginner, I like to learn from notes. Could you be so kind as to put a sheet of music online for this exercise? With many THANKS - Günther
The thing that draws me to Rob is pragmatism. Hes a current, contemporary working drummer who imparts tools to us that feature exercises that ARE actually used and required for everyday drumming. The foundation of these tools are workable, no nonsense concepts. He doesn't spend entire hours on a practice pad executing ridiculous sticking crud which will never really be used in a practical situation. He never announces absolutes, nor any unrealistic expectations. I follow him now on Instagram and I've based a lot of my practice philosophy on him. Hes really good for me.
Love your vids! You would love Isac Jamba. If you haven't seen him you will learn soooo much. some of the videos are in Portuguese, but pay attention and you'll be fine...lol Keep the Latin grooves comin!
Glad you’re delving into Latin grooves. This lesson reminded me that I used to have an instructional VHS tape of the late Chuck Silverman that I let my drum teacher borrow. Never got it back.
This was very informative. I like many drummers and percussion players, and among them includes Shelia E, and Walfredo Reyes Jr. I also saw Carlos Santana 5 times live, and the drumming and percussion in those concerts were amazing. Cheers, Rob! 👍🏻👍🏻✌️🇨🇦🥁
Was looking for the clave pattern. Wasn't until you sped it up that it started to come out. Folks, look up the clave to know what it's about. If you really want to get into Latin style, that's where it's at.
I would also say, to Latin-up that groove some more, especially at the peak of whatever song, add triples on the ride with the third partial on the bell
Hi Rob , cool stuff thank you for uploading - is the bass drum on the ‘ah’ of 1 and then on the ‘e’s ? Sounds like its coming down the same time as the left hand ( which is playing the e’s and ah’s) ? - cheers 😎
What up Rob! I'm a 1 month new drummer that's catching on quickly.. I think so. I can keep up with you on the practice pad with your double beat workouts until you get crazy 😀 When I start playing on the kit I'm so relaxed the sticks sometimes fly out of my hands. I play matched grip with my thumbs up knuckles down and it just feel right to me. I love the 5b's and don't plan on changing. Any tip on how to keep them in my hands?
I’ve played for 9 years and sometimes they still randomly fall out lol. It’s not common, sometimes I go months without doing it. Then sometimes I drop them 3 times in one song😂
rob is criminally under rated
TELL ‘em!…I mean…Thanks, man 😏🙂
Thanks Rob, this is going to be fun!
You can say that again !!!
Not to mention how humble he is. I love this drumming Brother and looking forward to meeting him one day!!!!
He’s the best

Rob you are a messenger of truth to the procrastinate beings of this island Earth
Rob you are the best teacher out there and make drumming so easy.
I hear so many things to add, tom accents, crosssticking, pull the snares off too, real cool to adlib, I FEEL it, so fun to lay a latin groove
Thank you Rob, I really enjoyed this lesson.ill be working on this one for sure.
Wow. Thank you Rob
Hey Rob, thanks man for everything. I strongly recommend you get the line "Ain't no need for no PDFs." put on some merch. That is the line of our times my friend.
Awesome lesson... Made it look so easy!
Rob your playing gets better and better, I use your lessons daily for practice time and its really helping. Also man that snare sounds crazy good lol
Songo is familiar to me, I always play it but since it’s rob, you just can’t skip a video even the ones made for beginners. Keep it up man. 🫶
Thank you Rob Brown for your service and expertise.
You're a great teacher.

Awesome ❤
Zack Albetta has a great video on latin styles, especially the distinction between afro-cuban and brazilian
Pocket Rob! Love this guy!
Miami sound machine... Oh yes
Great work. Thanks for posting
That new snare is the bomb!
I suggest playing Gerardo Ortiz the drums go crazy🔥🔥 "El Cholo" is awesome

Great❤️ Thanks for putting it out there..🥁

As usual…….thanks Rob!
Nice1 Rob.😉
Aye Aye Cap'n trickayyyyy !
I always wonder about cowbell stickings. I can’t seem to find the groove I’m looking for.
Great groove
I would also say, to Latin-up that groove some more, especially at the peak of whatever song, add triples on the ride with the third partial on the bell
I have that Syncopation book - from 1978!!
Mr Rob Brown can you do another video on Linear and Gospel chops it’s been a while
Hi Rob , cool stuff thank you for uploading - is the bass drum on the ‘ah’ of 1 and then on the ‘e’s ? Sounds like its coming down the same time as the left hand ( which is playing the e’s and ah’s) ? - cheers 😎
Rob Brown is No1..
Haha. Thanks man 👊🏽🙂
Thanks for this breakdown, Rob! What IEMs are you currently using?
I use my Ultimate Ears UE7s on stage. Here, I’m using my TRI i4s
What up Rob! I'm a 1 month new drummer that's catching on quickly.. I think so. I can keep up with you on the practice pad with your double beat workouts until you get crazy 😀 When I start playing on the kit I'm so relaxed the sticks sometimes fly out of my hands. I play matched grip with my thumbs up knuckles down and it just feel right to me. I love the 5b's and don't plan on changing. Any tip on how to keep them in my hands?
I’ve played for 9 years and sometimes they still randomly fall out lol. It’s not common, sometimes I go months without doing it. Then sometimes I drop them 3 times in one song😂
It mainly happens to me if I’m not paying attention, am not familiar with what I’m playing, or just holding them too too loosely
Great as always. What is the Name of the drumeo tune ?
Gracias
cannot click "like" enough ... THANKS
Bombtastic
Come on Rob! I see you brother 👊🏾
It would be helpful if you showed the music for these patterns, for those of us who learn easier by reading notes.
Oh... you're one of THOSE people...
@@Lupine. Lol it helps me study the rhythm rather than playing back the same section of a video over and over and over again.
@@V8Brah I'm by no means fluent in sight reading, but I do the same for picking out the rythm in GuitarPro tabs.
Had to tease out of envy.
But that snare drum….😍
love it, ❤

How to play a latin groove. Learn Español. Learn to dance salsa. Play the maracas.
And don't forget to sing clave rhythm when practicing.
I wish I was Canadia to get lessons from him

Stay sucka free with Beatdown!

First to watch….
I hear you man, but Reggae is equally sexy. :-)
They are moore ways to play it
This kind of lesson is expensive from where I am living.
You been "filling-out"? (Pun intended?) Or is that an effect of the nice beard?
