Berklee Instant Drum Set: Play Right Now! Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Good basic material for a non-drummer such as myself who wanted a taste of hands/feet coordination in the hope it would tighten up my own sense of time. I also wanted to understand
how drum beats are put together in various styles to help "compose" rhythm tracks with a drum machine.

The book is in the form of lessons and begins with the most basic time keeping and quickly demonstrates authentic-sounding drum parts in a variety of styles including rock, funk, swing
and blues. You're not going to learn how to play solos here, but you will learn the essence of feel and groove.

This might sound nuts, but just playing "air drums" with the exercises in this book taught me a lot of about time and the body's relationship to it. I'm sure drummers
know this stuff instinctively but for this string player it's been an enjoyable eye-opener.

The recording contains tracks with and without drums to demonstrate the lessons and function as a play along.
