Summary of This Method
This drum method in play-along format puts you in the real conditions of a drummer in training: listening, locking in, carrying the groove, and respecting dynamics. Thanks to the 10 leadsheets, you have a clear guide to understand the architecture of each song and anticipate important transitions (section changes, stops, restarts). The CD allows you to switch from active listening of the full versions to focused practice with the play-along versions, some of which include a clicktrack ideal for solidifying your time and gaining confidence.
The repertoire spans soul, funk, and pop with songs associated with major artists such as Aretha Franklin, Ray Charles, Lauryn Hill, and James Brown. It is an excellent resource for working on fundamentals (snare placement, bass drum/hi-hat balance, ghost note management, fill construction) while developing listening skills: you learn to serve the song, control your dynamics, and maintain energy until the last measure.
