  • @wyolabs The tracks are for those of us that enjoy harmony and melody. Neither of which you can get from a snare drum. If you have my book, you can fade to the left speaker and get only the snare drum sound, but for those of us that enjoy jammin' with a steel band, you have the right channel. Each lesson has a different style of music from around the world.

  • PLEASE remove the background music!!!

  • @YouBetterSmile12 Traditional grip was created to use on a tilted drum. It was created to take the tension out of the arm. Playing on a flat drum puts all the tension in the right arm. Ironic, the grip was created to relieve tension and we put the tension right back in there by flattening the drum. Hmmmm.

  • Badass but just one question. Why is the drum tilted?

  • @marlonchik You're welcome!

  • Thanks!
