While playing drums I hit the snare on every second Beat& the cymbal every fourth beat which one of the following shows the ratio of the number of times I hit a snare to the number of times i hit the cymbal

When you play every beat (1, 2, 3, 4) on the snare it’s often called “four on the floor”. True four on the floor would seem to be a bass hit on every beat, like in disco, but don’t let that confuse you. It’s the same musical concept.

“Pretty Woman” is a good example of a four on the floor. I don’t know if four on the floor is exactly a style, because I hear it in classic soul, punk and whatever, but it’s definitely an approach. It’s a way to mix it up, maybe adding a little tension or forward motion without turning up the metronome. The Stooges’ “I Wanna Be Your Dog” is a good example of a song that half-way commits to the four on the floor, and the resulting feel is kind of like falling or stumbling
