Drum line around 25:00. I hope the sound is bad because of the iPhone mic. Otherwise, they need to find another sound engineer!

My attempt at Wilcoxon's 132nd...


Here is my version of Wilcoxon’s 132nd as of now. I’m playing along to John through my in-ears, from the 08/22 masterclass recording at 75% speed, around the 19min. mark.

I’m trying to maintain a steady left-foot pulse, with bass drum on 2 and 4, which has become my go-to. I’m still pretty green and have plenty to work on, particularly maintaining the foot ostinato while keeping the ghost notes low, especially following accents.

Sorry for the audio — it was recorded through my webcam/zoom. I actually have mics and DAW (Reaper), DaVinci Resolve for video… maybe one day I’ll figure out how to use all of it... I appreciate any feedback.

Very nice Kit!

I really like how you’re putting the Kik on the 2&4. I’m curious at to what’s your thoughts around that as I haven’t seen anyone else doing that?

I can see a lot of virtue in that as it’s going to really drive the feel on the back beat ‘home’ not to mention giving you some serious horsepower while driving a Reggae band!👊🏾

Johnny V uses that sometimes with playing a shuffle. I tried that while a gtr player was doing a solo and man it really opened up the groove and HE loved it!!!

Anyways great work I can tell you logged some hours into this!

I already told John this but his improvement on this piece in a few weeks has been exceptional. Now keep those taps lower so you have more contrast. That will make it funkier.
