This was incredibly well broke down and explained. The depth you went into is much appreciated considering the time and thought that went into building this fill! So thank you 🙏
one tiny correction, the 32nd note frenzy goes:
K, (rest), T,T,K,K,F1,F2 into the snare on 2.
You hit the nailed the head with taking a concept, ‘inverted doubles’ for instance, and trying to expand on it in as many different ways, intern creating a bunch of ideas from one concept 👌
Ps you said my last name perfectly 😄
