"JOEL SIEGEL: All right. So we've done a few workings with moving that upbeat around and leaving out that downbeat of three with those two eighth notes on beat one. All right, keeping up here? There's one more and we're going to leave that for a little later, and maybe you don't--maybe you know why already, intuitively; if not, just don't worry about it. What we're going to move to is we're actually kinda take a step back just because we haven't covered this yet. And we're going to take out that second note on the first beat, so we're just going to play the downbeat of one. And then we're going to do similar to like what we just did, we're going to move that upbeat around.

There's also the four. I messed that up. All right, makes sense? We're just--now we're just only playing with those two notes in the kick drum. So I'll add the hi-hat and we'll do a little playing together in this next clip."
