The music I’m talking about is on the Jing-Chi album by the amazing Vinny Colauita! The track is called ‘The Hong Kong Incident’ great drummer music (if you like fusion)

Vinnie plays the eample in the middle of the video at about 1min 49 sec

So the bass and snare basic but are a very important to the beat.

You wouldn’t be blamed for thinking, ‘ok, I’ll play the sixteenth notes and that will help me’ doing that would detracted from the point.

Another example of the simple yet hard to play is on his first album Stretch. The track opens with a loop, in time the loop drops one 16th note, I could try explaining but I’ll let the playing do the talking.
