This is the most basic rhythm pattern of the 8th Note Feel. When working on drum
phrases, start by practicing the basic pattern for that song. This song uses rhythm
patterns based on 8th notes, so the numbering ranges from 1 to 8.
A fill is primarily an improvisation, usually about one or two bars in length, performed
at transitions within a tune outside the repetition of the primarily defined rhythm
pattern. It essentially relies upon the musical sense of the performer. In Japan it is
also referred to as “okazu” (side dish) because it adds a spicy flavor to the tune.
The fill’s main role is to raise the energy level by accenting the accompaniment and
is often used to transition to the next part of the tune.
The rhythm pattern of Rehearsal Mark B adds a bass drum at the 4 position.
