Summary of This Method
The Total Drummer is aimed at all drummers who want to reach the next level, regardless of their goals: gaining control, power, fluidity, or musicality. Designed as a progressive journey, this program guides you through exercises and routines intended to strengthen fundamentals while opening the door to more advanced concepts. Dimitri Fantini, professional drummer, producer, and educator, details a concrete working method that emphasizes efficiency, consistency, and musical application.
Throughout the lessons, you will find in-depth work on rudiments, development of advanced techniques for hands and feet, as well as modules dedicated to coordination and independence. The method also addresses layering meters (to better navigate between rhythmic overlays and pulse sensations), vocabulary optimization (to enrich your grooves and fills without losing the musical thread), and valuable concepts related to studio work. Complementing the book, video content shows you how to implement the concepts, with over an hour of performances and instructions. Highlight: a special solo performance by the author, fully transcribed, clearly illustrating the explained techniques and helping to connect exercises, interpretation, and sound.
