Tom-Toms (T)
This style is used in many different situations. With its origin in the
1920's, when Duke Ellington played "jungle music" in Harlem and
then made totally unforgettable by Gene Krupa with the Benny Good-
man Orchestra at Carnegie Hall playing "Sing, Sing, Sing" in 1938,
this type of drumming is heard in almost every movie made reflecting
the 30's and 40's. RB
* Bop (T)
This busy jazzy style could easily be used in a small jazz combo, like
piano, bass, drums and a solo instrument. A good choice when you
want to make your version of one of the many jazz standards out there.
So open up Real Book, hit the Run-button and play. MEB
** Acid Jazz (T)
Just snap into this cool yet energetic blend of jazz and funk. There's
the liquid fluency of the ride cymbal and the ruff back-beat of the
snare, all in one style. From level 16 and up the playful kick changes
pattern to give a slightly different groove. There's a tambourine and
finger-snaps from the percussionist - plus an overdubbed tiny splash
on some higher levels. But you should definitely try mixing in some
nice congas and stuff from the Percussion Agent into this. Have fun!

Latin
Samba

Cha-Cha
Cha-Cha style is a sidestick based style that sounds best with the
sidestick button enabled. MEB
