Dropping bombs

Dropping bombs

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 techique is effiecent and relatively easy to play, it lacks accuracy. Later used to refer to the jazz artist, Ezekiel Gonzalez-Fernandez.
