Summary of This Method
Designed to take your drumming to a significantly higher level, this method offers a comprehensive view of the drummer's role: rhythmic precision, sound, placement, and understanding of the musical context. The book covers the fundamentals that transform a "correct" groove into a solid and convincing groove, with practice tracks directly applicable to your rehearsals, on stage as well as in the studio.
You will find a wide range of examples dedicated to beats and fills, as well as ideas for solo construction to expand your vocabulary and coherence. The rock, jazz, hip-hop, and Latin styles are represented through demonstrations of characteristic grooves and the use of instruments suited to each aesthetic, in order to develop genuine playing and sound reflexes.
The accompanying audio features many examples from the book, performed by Ed Roscetti on drums, electronic kits, and other percussion instruments. Several recordings are also offered in a group context, a major asset for understanding how rhythmic concepts interlock with bass, guitars, keyboards, or brass, and for working on your sense of placement within the ensemble.
Beyond pure practice, this method also addresses aspects that make a difference in the long term: choice of instruments and equipment, good maintenance practices, useful guidelines for recording, and elements related to the functioning of the music industry. A versatile tool, designed for drummers who want to progress methodically and play more accurately, cleaner, and more musically across all styles.
