Bright cells are accents, dim ones are ghost notes. Each row is a pad; each column is a 16th note.

What you'll play

Accented quarter hats, a moving kick and a clap layer. Hats loud on the beat, soft in between. Bar 1: kick on 1, 3 and 4. Bar 2: kick on 1 and the "and" of 3, and a clap doubles the snare.

Hear it first

The clap makes bar 2 sound bigger.

Play it clean

Left middle plays the clap, left index the kick. Pass with 85% as the tempo goes 92 → 100 BPM.
