Not every rhythm has a widely recognised name, but for those that do it will be because that rhythm has a particular cultural significance. 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.

The outro music to this video is my track “Clap” which you can hear in full on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/0wKKJ…

And, an extra special thanks goes to Douglas Lind, Vidad Flowers, Ivan Pang, Waylon Fairbanks, Jon Dye, Austin Russell, Christopher Ryan, Toot & Paul Peijzel, the channel’s Patreon saints! 😇
