Try these hi-hat variations with all of the funk beats.
Also play these on the ride, adding quarter notes, eighths, or 1+, 2+, 3+, 4+ on the hi-hat with your foot.
Linear drumming is a style of funk drumming, meaning that you never overlap the hi-hat, snare, or bass drum notes, creating an energetic, choppy-sounding groove. Play 16th notes around the bass and snare drums, but never at the same time.
