Drums and Percussion

Drums set the pulse of a song. From rock to hip-hop, they shape the groove, energy, and feel. Whether it’s a booming bass drum, a crisp snare, or a shimmering cymbal, percussion gives music its heartbeat.

Different styles use drums in unique ways:

  • Rock – Hard-hitting beats, explosive fills, and driving rhythms. (Think Foo Fighters or Metallica)
  • Pop – Clean, polished grooves designed to be catchy and danceable.
  • Country – Laid-back rhythms, often with brushes or shuffles for a warm feel.
  • Hip-Hop – Heavy, tight beats, often from drum machines or sampled loops.

No matter the genre, drummers bring power, precision, and creativity to every song.
