The Drum Lesson Project (TDLP)

I think I found one of the coolest channel that teaches me what I always wanted to learn. Famous licks by legendary drummers are broken down into bite size so we can digest better. Drum notations/ slower tempo are demonstrated, making it easy to learn.

One great disadvantage is that these lessons are taught in Japanese. There are a lot of talking in the video and if you're like me (who can't understand japanese) it would be senseless babbling. However, if you are able to read drum notations or figure out what is being played (the movements are slow enough for the naked eye), you will be able to get a great deal out of the drum lessons.


Here's an example:

Skip to 1:37 to how the Aaron Spear Lick sound like.
Forward to 2:05 to start learning how to play (With the drum notations at the top LH corner.)
