July 2013 Rock & Jazz Clinic Double Bass Fills: Overlapping Into the Next Phrase, Part 2 by Powell Randolph The purpose of this lesson, which is a continuation of what we explored in part one (from the June 2013 issue of Modern Drummer), is to show you how to overlap bass drum notes at the end of a phrase into a crash at the beginning of the next phrase, in order to create a continuous flow of ideas.

Powell Randolph on drums and Quintin Berry on bass doing an impromtu jam at Quintin's bass clinic at Alpha Music in Virginia Beach. Quintin Berry plays his bass like that because he used to play violin as a kid and it stems from that. He can play great both that way and in the traditional position.
