"Tippi-Toes" by The Meters

"Tippi-Toes" by The Meters

- This next funky beat is another one supplied by the great Zigaboo Modeliste, and it's all song called Tippi-Toes by The Meters, here it goes. One, two, one, two, three, four. (drum beat) So, let's break that beat down and simplify it a little bit. Let's get used to playing the high hat on, open on B2, and then stomping your foot back down on the end of B2, we're gonna do that on beat four as well, like this. One, two, one, two, three, four. (drum beat) The next thing we're gonna do is we're gonna bring in some extra bass drum hits on the ahs of the beats like this. One, two, one, two, three, four. (drum beat) And finally, let's make the beat authentic to the recording by adding in an extra couple bass drum notes like this. One, two, one, two, three, four. (drum beat)
