In the first of our Beginners Guide to Music Theory series we look at how to use Rhythm to create a number of different drum patterns for many different genres of music from House and Techno to Hip Hop and Drum 'n' Bass. From basic beat patterns to more advanced rhythmic programming we show you all you need to sequence the perfect beat no matter what style of music you're making. Also we look at how the different rhythms can be used to spice up a boring bassline!

Great tutorial!! Been mixing music for years but to see the simpleness of basic structure when it comes to producing blew me away Thanx highly recomend this tutorial!
Proper annoyed with this. Considering its a beginner tutorial you could've included sound files so we can replicate everything the tutor is doing. I know the idea is theory but it's nice to follow it. Had to use other sounds which weren't the same so didn't get the full effect.... When he started using sylenth I was completely lost. CHEERS!!
Very interesting and insightful. It's amazing how tempo and slight alternation to the sequence of sounds can create another genre of music. Thank you.

This is a great tutorial, very informative in a simple way, especially for a beginner like myself! I use Logic Pro, is there a tutorial for beat making with Logic instead of Abelton?
Though it’s difficult to point you to a specific tutorial, going to this page All Courses should help. You can use the filters & search options to find tutorials matching your needs like genre, topic, software & DAW.
There are many Logic’s tutorials ( from 8 to 10 ) showing tips about drums processing & Ultrabeat programming and also many artist full track tutorials with very informative videos about drums programming & processing.
Using filters combined with the search field ( as in the screenshot bellow ) should help you to find interesting content.
Great tutorial and really interesting, hard house and hard style were mentioned but not shown, I wished it went longer and covered more genres, I found the course when I did a search for jungle but unfortunately that was not there either.
