Gavin Harrison: Rhythmic Designs

Check out some clips from Gavin Harrison's new DVD and Book - Rhythmic Designs - with a few clips selected by Gavin Himself!

This video includes playing excerpts from the songs "Circles" and "Okay", both by Gavin and 05Ric.

The advanced book/DVD package has been created to provide contemporary drummers with a method for studying and developing the technical and musical skills required to perform todays challenging, progressive drumming styles.

Rhythmic Designs expands on the groundbreaking polyrhythmic, polymetric concepts covered in Harrisons previously published Rhythmic Illusions, Rhythmic Visions and Rhythmic Horizons books and videos by offering detailed analysis and transcriptions of twenty drum tracks from the recent Gavin Harrison & 05Ric albums Drop and Circles (featuring guitarist Robert Fripp and keyboardists Dave Stewart and Gary Sanctuary).

Along with the 204-page book of note-for-note transcriptions and practice exercises, the double-sided companion DVD features more than two-and-a-half hours of video packed with descriptions and discussions of the drum parts, set-ups, tuning and recording process—plus six minus-drums, play-along tracks.

"I just slow it down a bit for you." and it has still the "WTF" in it.

[Lexcoaster]

Do the beaters on his bass drum pedals light up?!

[ccase2k]

Employ Gavin more, he does a phenomenal job explaining things and he really knows what he is doing.

Chuck Norris died trying it.

@brianmusson And that's just called independence. :)

[brianmusson]

@thraXn your goal should be to set each of your limbs on a sort of auto-drive feature. Watch his eyes, you can see him set up each limb accordingly.

[tjdrummer13]

@themindfuck Yeah and his probably more concerned about how he looks with his shirt off then his drumming...

[jumpy27]

@thraXn right!!

@thraXn I went from very low-tech drumming to high (very advanced "Gavin Level") drumming in 2 years time. He's quite the inspiration. So much, that I've been practicing that sticking for 15 minutes every day. The last part in Cheating the Polygraph: I just learned the sticking about 3 weeks ago. From then up to now, it's been a major improvement in playing it. Just practice. I owe it to my dad for showing me to Porcupine Tree in the first place. Gavin makes 2 years of intense practice worth it.
