This is another tune from the Tommy Igoe Groove Essentials Play Along book demonstrating a Samba groove. This one is a tough one to keep chuggin along consistently!! you'll notice some wavering at various points.

  • Do you think that if a drummer played an audition with this level of drumming would be accepted to berklee?

  • @onatdrums87 I really don't know. It has been a while since my Berklee audition. I am sure their standards have gone up quite a bit since then. There are so many fantastic young players out there that this level of playing may be quite common. I will say this. I am sure that there would be a decent chance of acceptance with playing of this level.

  • what kit's this?

  • Yamaha beech custom.

  • @justinrinearson I'm nowhere near as good as this guy, but I can do the double kicks at this tempo. Practice it constantly, and if you have a double bass pedal, sell it! I think I learned the coordination by emulating the Bonham kick (Good Times, Bad Times, etc.). The hardest part for me is still working that coordination into the groove. This video's a great example of that...

  • You nailed it!!!! awesome job! im working on this groove myself, it's a toughy though. haha

  • @LOLE1991KOVIN Thanks so much for the kind words! Would love to have you as a student!

  • whats amazing is how you can rip those bass drum doubles so effortlessly. for me its the most physically difficult movement on the drum set. you've obviously been playing a long time. nice work !

  • Cool, great job mate!

  • i like your fill at 2:12, just getting into this book.

  • yess! i agree

    by the way it's cool that you can speak your language and also english so well. i'm from Puerto Rico and speak spanish and english and i like you language! haha

  • Excellent!

    Very nice!
