"Alright here we have the Bio Calypso Bimbe variation of the Songo. And that's a lot of Latin terminology but I'll play it and then we'll break it down. Okay so the first measure the Bio Calypso, meaning we're playing overall a Bio rhythm but not all on the bass drum. Not all. The last hit we're playing as a Calypso and a cross stick with the left hand. To this we are adding and filling in space with two clicks just after beat one. And in the second measure we just have the Bimbe portion on the bass drum, and the left hand filling in all the gaps while the right hands stays consistent."
