In this lesson, we’ll embellish some basic fills for song intros in order to create something a bit more interesting. Adding notes before or after the fill, experimenting with orchestration, and using rudiments such as rolls, flams, and ruffs are just a few ways to make an intro figure more dynamic. Keep in mind that sometimes the simplest ideas work best, but occasionally you may want to spice things up.
