God Bless all the drummers, just want to say we have to share our knowledge!

lets get started!

what is salsa, samba or latin jazz

Salsa is played not in 2/4 beat but in 2/2 beat 2/4 will be played in latin jazz
so its 1 and 2 and 1 and 2 and

now to play the latin rhythmic, i highly recommend to get a percussionist set up, and have him learn the latin sytles on the conga, and timbales. its essential to have these afro-cuban rhythms in ever latin style music.

in latin music the percussion and drums are playing on the offbeat!

here is a simple salsa beat on the drums
d-bass drum
p-snare
x-high hat
^-accent


were gonna take it slow
beat 4/4
   ^ ^ ^
d p d-d       its going to sound like  da da dada
     (double)

lots of accents are in latin styles of music. in kirk franklin rebirth when their sing Are God is Awesome God, you could here the drummer playing this beat, in the part of the song when the latin rhythms come out. also watch the video and the end their is a salsa part.

Practical
     
d p d-d p d-d p d-d p d-d p d-d p

adding the high hat
(basic Pattern)
beat 4/4 gradually move fast

1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4
x x x x x x x x x x x x
(just keep it striaght)

Add kick and snare(offbeat)

x x x x x x x x x
   p        p          p
d    d-d       d-d
                                           
                       Intro to clave coming soon(important 8)  
^^^
ddd  d-d (called  clave)
  3
