So today we are going to look at 18 of these "named" rhythms so you can be familar with how they sound and where they come from. 📌NOTE: on 15th April 2025 I had to cut out the clips of "Faith" by George Michael, “Panic in Detroit” by David Bowie and "His Latest Flame" by Elvis from the Bo Diddley beat section of this video due to copyright claims. The outro music to this video is my track "Clap" which you can hear in full on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/0wKKJ...
