Well, to be brutally honest about it, the board has been kinda dead here lately. So, the staff here at DLO is putting together a few things to get people more interested. One of those things will be a "lick of the week." Every week a member of the forum will post a short lick for everyone to see and discuss. Everyone is encouraged to post an entry. The only rule is one lick per week can be posted, so if a lick has already been posted for that week, please just hold your lick until the following week. That way we can keep this thread going for awhile and get some consistent traffic for the board.

If you would like to submit a video of you playing your lick or another member's lick that would be great.

It doesn't matter what format you post your lick in or the notation. We just want to see them. Thanks in advance to everyone who chooses to participate.

Since I spear headed this one, I will start. This a 4 measure snare lick I threw together this afternoon. It is designed to be played at a pretty fast tempo. I will leave the exact tempo up to the flam drag fighter pilots who learn it. Enjoy.

Needs Flams!

Other than that I think it needs Flams!

In measure 3, the 5th beat needs to be a Flam! I'm just saying.

Practicing this slow kinda blows my mind right now. Too many two count fivelets. Can I make a suggestion that an audio recording (when possible) is provided with the lick for people like me who are audial learners as well as visual learners?

Try playing with a cut time(2 pulses per measure)feel might help. Work on just the rhythm without any doubles or rimshots. Then go back and add on everything and speed it up. It is supposed to be played at a fast tempo left to our ability.

Only problem I see is next week and who will have their music played/chosen. What happens to your lick if not chosen?

Another suggestion I have is to make a interesting sounding idea versus one just complicated and not sounding as interesting. I think this one has both which is the idea. That should be the goal of this DLO/LOW! The most interesting part of this initial lick is the 5-let in the 3rd measure going into the 8th notes and triplet following. Timing!!!

Yeah, I'e been jammin to some dubstep with it so there's your half time. My overly analytical mind decided to slow it down and try and do it in four too. It broke down after I realized the fives were 5:8 instead of 5:4. smile

Edit: I just realized how much I want to crush those two shots at the end of the last 5. Bah.
