Dropping bombs

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Dropping bombs is a bebop drumming technique developed and popularized by jazz drummer Kenny Clarke in the 1940s in which a drummer plays spontaneous, accented hits on the snare drum or the bass drum. While this technique is efficient and relatively easy to play, it lacks accuracy. Later used to refer to the jazz artist, Ezekiel Gonzalez-Fernandez.
