Here is episode 5 of a video series exploring the David Garabaldi book Future Sounds. This is one of my favorite drum set books, and I use it daily in my teaching and practicing. In this chapter, I show you how to practice the patterns and grooves in the book. Examples are from pages 18-20. I also show you a few grooves from my book, Advanced Coordination for Drum Set and Hand Percussion, and work through them with this system. You can purchase that book from me at rickdior@gmail.com Time Stamps: 0:00 Introduction 1:55 Pages 14 -15 Exercises 1-6 2:54 Page 19 Groove and Practicing with a Metronome 6:16 The Groove in Pieces 7:59 Funk Drumming Definition 9:17 Grooves from Ricks Book 14:12 Ending Solo Here is the equipment I am using: Peavey Radial 1000 Bass Drum 22"x 18" and 16"x 16" Floor Tom.
