Deltron 3030 - Mastermind (Drum Pattern No. 67) (Patreon)

This pattern was recommended by your fellow Patron Binuts. It's a perfect fit for the Humanizing Hi-Hats episode since this is an unquantized beat and it needs lots of humanizing - not only on the Hi-Hat. The beat also plays with the amount of swing on the even Kick Drum steps, which is why I thought it best not to transcribe any swing at all, but to indicate everything via microtiming. I've included quantized and humanized sound samples for you :)

In case you've never heard of Deltron 3030 - they're a rap supergroup consisting of Dan the Automator, Del the Funky Homosapien and Kid Koala. You might be familiar with one of their later collaborations - the first Gorillaz album.
