DescriptionCharacteristic rock and disco drum patterns.png
English: Characteristic rock and funk (Bolton, Ross (2001). Funk Guitar: The Essential Guide, p.5. ISBN0-634-01168-5.) drum pattern followed by discodrum pattern.
Schroedl, Scott (2001). Play Drums Today!, p.15. Hal Leonard. ISBN0-634-02185-0. notates the "basic [rock] beat" using half notes on the bass drum and a quarter note ride cymbal pattern while "four to the floor" (p.15) features steady quarter notes on the bass drum.
Morton, James (1990). You Can Teach Yourself Drums, p.32. Mel Bay. ISBN1-56222-033-0. gives as the first, "commmonly used rock beats," featuring, "an eighth-note ride pattern," as the above pattern but riding the hi-hat, not the ride cymbal. Rock groups such as U2 and INXS have used the second beat, notated with one hand for the hi-hat/snare pattern and one for the bass (p.55).
"Basic" beats in Mattingly, Rick (2006). All About Drums, p.42. Hal Leonard. ISBN1-4234-0818-7. include four to the floor with quarter note hi-hat ride, described as appropriate for "hard rock", with eighth-note ride pattern appropriate for a "pop song", with swung eighths on the backbeat of the ride pattern for a "jazz feel", and second notated pattern above, descried as "basic 4/4 'beat'...[with] a sixteenth-note feel" with hi-hat ride.
Marshall, Wayne (2006). "Giving Up Hip-hop's Firstborn
A Quest for the Real after the Death of Sampling", Callaloo 29.3: 868-892. ISSN 0161-2492. "The funk-derived breaks that have long served as hip-hop's rhythmic bedrock" are also characterized by, "their common features [which] tend to include a kick drum on the downbeats...snares on the off beats...and a hi-hat dividing each measure at the level of the eighth or sixteenth note. Finally, a tempo of anywhere between 80 and 110 beats per minute will evoke the recognizable feel of a hip-hop beat."

This media depicts a rhythm outside of a specific musical context. Rhythms without melody or harmony (no "distinctiveness"), may be used in compositions by multiple composers ("common material"), and may not be readily apparent in compositions. As such, a rhythm is a musical concept or technique, which is considered too simple to be eligible for copyright protection, or which consists only of technique, with no original creative input.
