Right in time for Halloween with your bucket drumming kids, and of course a classic anytime of year is the #1 All-Time Hit from Michael Jackson's album of the same name, "Thriller" but re-envisioned in a TRAP Remix!

There are five all-color coded slides along with the form identifiers listed next to each phrase. Discuss form with the students and teach them (by rote) the rhythms on the powerpoint with the corresponding repeats (most are repeated 4 times). Then, apply it to drums!

All regular notation is to be played on the buckets (or drums, or ground, however you wish), and the X notation (with a down stem) are played as stick clicks above their head (or you could apply it to a tambourine or other auxiliary instrument)

Here's the track so you can play along...

Have some halloween fun in class or even for a performance!
