Recently came across this exercise from waaaaay back. Absolutely destroyed my brain 🤯🤯

Some different movements in the right hand over a 7 pattern between the kick + snare all whilst stepping 8th notes on the left foot!! 🥁

So difficult to get those dynamics right on the ghosts notes after the initial accent, slowly but surely getting there...what a roast! (in a good way) 🔥🤣
