● Beat displacement and modulation
● Related tempo and time signatures
● Varied orchestration
● Ghost note grooves
● Paradiddle and linear fills
● Single stroke rolls
“I wanted to create a BFD Groove Pack that would be instantly identifiable as modern tech metal.” Says Foord, who has been at the forefront of progressive metal drumming for more than a decade. “Polyrhythms in particular form the basis of this style and 3 over 4 most of all. I can honestly say you won’t find a more comprehensive set of 3 over 4 polyrhythmic grooves and fills anywhere.”
