The basic rock and roll drum beat is a 4/4 time signature, which means that there are four beats in each measure. The bass drum plays on beats 1 and 3, the snare drum plays on beats 2 and 4, and the hi-hat plays on all four beats.
Here is a breakdown of the basic rock and roll drum beat:
- Bass Drum: 1, 3
- Snare Drum: 2, 4
