#22.30

Here's some more rudimental drumming for you. These two short exercises go along with the next post, #22.31, and are meant to build up triplet<->fivelet interpretation/feel (though you won't find any fivelets in this one).

For these two exercises, #22.30a and b, the accents should really be written as tenuto ( - ) marks, or "half-accents"- don't think 2 rigid and super differentiated heights, think more egogic stress on the downbeats and think flow.

#22.30a and b

Notation note: I didn't write "3"s above the triplets, or "2"s above the eighth notes, to differentiate the triplets and eighths. It should be exceptionally clear what rhythms are what though if you pay attention to how many notes are beamed together.
