Double Bass Drum Triplets in 5/4, Back Beat on 3

https://mikemccraw.com https://dominoretroplate.com https://drumcavedave.com

A simple groove in 5/4, playing triplets as a double bass drum pattern with the back beat on 3 of every bar which is one of many ways to play a groove in 5/4. By using only beat 3, it helps to smooth out the odd time signature enough that it doesn't sound as though the groove is "falling off of a log" all the time. I used quarter notes on the hi hat for 16 bars and then used half notes on a China Boy cymbal, in a manner of "Rhythmic Resolution", the half note "resolving" on the down beat of every odd bar. The click settings are 140, 160, 180, 200 220 bpm.
