So we had to play a piece of music via sight reading, just playing as you go, for a couple of different genres. the ones I sight read were Tiberius and Rollin'. Tiberius was a grade 4 metal beat and Rollin' a grade 4 blues beat.
Rollin' was the first beat i did, its fairly straight forward, there's a couple of parts where you have a swung cymbal pattern, and there is also an improvised drum solo for 8 bars i believe. Anyway here is my video on my first attempt at Rollin'
So above is my first run through of Rollin', the grade 4 blues piece. It was okay, I have loads to practise however, as i t was very messy, and the drum solo section was very under thought, and the swung pattern was wrong so yeah loads to learn, and practise and generally work on.
Next was Tiberius, the heavy metal grade 4 piece. also fairly simple, i'd say easier than Rollin', couple of parts work a little weird, but I like this beat and genre just due to the amount you can improvise around the beat with rather fills or double bass techniques and stuff.
Tiberius, also needs a lot of work and was quite messy.
