Drum Intros

A great drum intro can set the tone for an entire song, instantly grabbing the listener's attention and creating a sense of anticipation. Here are some of the most famous drum intros in music history:

  • "When the Levee Breaks" by Led Zeppelin: John Bonham's thunderous drum intro on this track is one of the most iconic in rock history. The booming sound of his Ludwig drums, recorded in a stairwell, perfectly captures the song's apocalyptic lyrics and creates an unforgettable opening.
  • "In the Air Tonight" by Phil Collins: The gated reverb on Phil Collins' snare drum on this track is instantly recognizable. It creates a haunting and ethereal atmosphere that perfectly complements the song's emotional lyrics.
  • "Kashmir" by Led Zeppelin: John Bonham's intricate drum intro on this track is a masterpiece of polyrhythmic drumming. The combination of his bass drum, snare drum, and hi-hats creates a hypnotic groove that sets the stage for the song's epic build-up.

Drum Fills

Drum fills are short bursts of intricate drumming that connect different sections of a song. They can be used to create tension, build excitement, or simply show off the drummer's technical skills. Here are some of the most famous drum fills in music history:
