Hi, I'm new to bboying and is trying to get started on learning and practicing some toprock. I was wondering where I could find some music with some nice easy beats to practice with. ThX
Dance to the Drummer's Beat by Herman Kelly and Life...very easy to hear the beat. Cowbell keeps the tempo and the snare is good and loud.
The Mexican - Babe Ruth...simple beat that stays relatively consistent but still has some small elements you can learn to rock like lyrics and the organ.
I Believe in Miracles by Jackson Sisters...a little more than beginner, helps you learn how to rock horns and breaks in a song.
