Does anyone know how Pharrell created the percussion line for Come get it bae?
I'm starting back to produce and this go around I want to perfect the craft. Thanks!
 
It seems to be just clapping hands recorded several times, following the same rythm pattern, to create a certain thickness in the beat.
 
Not just clapping also other tapping recorded.

Probably start off by clapping then record other layers of tapping and percussive noises that sound good.

The key to getting it right is finding a funky rhythm for each layer that compliments the other layers
