Reggaeton Drum arranging

[bigdogsdontbarkloud]

Does anyone know how to program some reggaeton drum beats? I just can't seem to get them right by myself. Does anyone know what the sheet music would look like?

Okay im not an expert but this is how i make my reggaeton . (for a real expert view ask a cuban musician or somethin)

Basically reggaeton is more in the beat. Its known as the arrangement of 3 3 2.


so with a 4/4 tiem signature :



1 - - - 2 - - - 3 - - - 4 - - - 5|
beat
(imagine this as being only 4 beats ie 1 bar. The numbers are teh actual beats

Then experiment with this pattern:
X - - X 2 - X - X - - X 4 - X - X

Thats the backbone of reggaeton if you dont understand it let me know and ill draw it on sheet music for ya
