There are many different ways to develop effective drumming skills. This Student is diggin The N.A.R.D ( National Association of Rudimental Drummers ) book. 150 Rudimental Solos with goofy titles like… “Smittys Delight” 🥁🔥🥁❤️🙏🏻 Well DONE! Brought my hand engraved Ludwig Black Beauty for my Student to play. #LICDrumLessons #MONOLisaStudios #AlwaysBeGrowing #DrumLove #DrumFun #DrumLessonsLongIsla...

My Student and I have been working together to expand his awareness of different Time Feels. “Carry On Wayward Son” was a great choice as it shifts between Triplet feels - Straight 8ths and Off Beat feels. Well DONE!!

When a track is produced with a very rhythmically quantized - programmed sounding drum part, I encourage my Students to play with their own rhythmic feel. Unless you physically move like a robot, it’s very hard to sound like one. How you move is how you Groove!

If a musician desires to feel connected to the American Musical Tapestry, then you must learn to Shuffle! John Bonham studied the Great American Drummers and produced one of the most timeless Shuffle Grooves ever recorded. When my Student desired to study this Groove I was excited to be a part of this Rhythmic Rite of Passage. Well Done!!

So important for a drummer to be able to maintain the Rhythmic Feel of a song. My Student did a fabulous job keeping the Funky Swing Feel through all the Fills and Section Changes. Big takeaway studying this Track!

I always encourage my Students not to fear being a “work in progress.” That is essentially what we all are our entire life! Always growing and learning. Big step forward that we now have the arrangement, the performance will get tighter.

When it comes to recording drums in a Studio, all my Students get the lecture that you don’t need to Crush the drums and cymbals to get a great recorded sound. Play the Kit Sonically Balanced and pull the Tone out. Well Done!!

Don’t need a metronome when the Song has a Solid Programmed - Looped drum part! Great song to work on timing. Kept the fills sparse to allow space for the Programmed Drums. Well Done!
