⚠️ ATTENTION PLAYERS: FUNKY UNSTABLE CONDITIONS AHEAD! ⚠️ Your guitar solos are balanced on a razor's edge, sloshing with tasty New Orleans funk gravy that's perpetually on the verge of disaster yet never quite spills. That's the precarious deliciousness this drum beat delivers.

Unicycle Gravy is what happens when a drummer misunderstands what it means to "cook" on stage and instead creates a rhythm that makes guitarists salivate and lose their balance simultaneously. I've intentionally avoided the tyranny of click tracks, allowing this beat to breathe with authentic human feel.

This groove is like balancing a pot of delicious funk on a unicycle while playing your instrument, featuring:
• Fluctuating tempo that ebbs and flows like a tipsy chef in a kitchen that won't stop spinning
• Natural, loose rhythm that thumbs its nose at sterile, quantized modern beats that taste like hand sanitizer
• Expressive New Orleans funk drumming that thrives in oppressive humidity and sweaty anticipation
• Second line and street groove influences for maximum flavor

We've all had that dream where we're naked at school but somehow also covered in delicious sauce while riding a tiny bike, right? No? Just me? This funky drum track captures that perfect blend of embarrassing exposure and tasty adventure - ideal for guitarists, bassists, and keyboardists who want to practice teetering on the edge of musical disaster while somehow landing their tastiest licks.

Remember, this free YouTube version is for jamming and practice only! Should you wish to serve your musical creations in a recorded project, you'll need to visit the website link above and become a premium member. Try to ride off with this beat on one wheel, and you'll topple straight into a puddle of embarrassment with nothing but a unicycle horn to explain yourself!

So go ahead - grab your instrument and enjoy the ride! Your brain's equilibrium center is about to start cooking up terrible ideas that somehow sound amazing.

Hope you're having a good time jamming with my beats. You're welcome to use them here for personal playing and practice. If you're recording or releasing something, you'll need a download, which is what jimdooley.net is for. It's also a great way to support my channel.

*Downloads and licensing at jimdooley.net*

I have a few free beats on the site so you can get a feel for things before committing to anything. For the full catalog there are two membership tiers. Here's what's available for most beats - check the beat's page to confirm what's there for a specific one before signing up:

- *Full-length beat* - the complete original recording as a WAV file. A real performance with an arrangement, not a loop.
- *Drum loops* - short excerpts from the full performance, usually one to four measures, cut to repeat seamlessly in a DAW. The building blocks for arranging your own song structure.
- *Multitrack stems* - the raw individual tracks, one file per microphone. For anyone who wants to mix the kit from scratch. 24-bit WAV only.
- *16-bit WAV* - CD quality. Standard for most recording and release work.
- *24-bit WAV* - studio quality. Higher resolution, larger files.
- *MP3* - smaller file size. Same performance, easier to move around.

*About my videos*

There are two types on my channel: original beats, which are full recordings with arrangements, and 20-minute versions made from loops for longer practice sessions. The 20-minute beats aren't available as a single download, but grab the loops from the site and you can arrange them yourself - loop them as long as you want.

If you've been getting use out of these beats, joining the site is the best way to make sure there are always more on the way - and it's genuinely appreciated.
