Neil Peart
Rush · Precision and orchestration — every fill composed, every part earning its place
The grooves Neil Peart actually uses across their path, moves and song studies — each one opens the same exercise workout the rest of the app links to.
Ride Pattern Variations
Level 2Groove · 55–150 BPM
The snare and kick stay the same the whole time. Only your right hand changes what it is doing on the ride. This teaches your limbs to stop copying each other.
Goal: A right hand you can change without losing the pocket
WorkoutLinear Groove Around the Kit
Level 3Groove · 55–130 BPM
'Linear' means only one limb sounds at a time — no kick and hi-hat together, ever. It forces your hands off the snare and onto the toms to fill the space.
Goal: Modern linear groove vocabulary you can drop into a fill
WorkoutKick Placement Drill
Level 2Groove · 55–140 BPM
Your hands play the exact same thing every bar. Only the kick moves. This builds the 'my foot goes where I want' skill that everything else depends on.
Goal: Tight, creative kick phrasing under a static groove
WorkoutSnare Displacement
Level 3Groove · 55–130 BPM
Normally the snare lands on 2 and 4. Here you slide it slightly later each time — onto the 'e', then the '&', then the 'a' — while the hi-hat and kick refuse to move.
Goal: You feel the pulse independently of the backbeat
