JB Bouvet - Solo Deconstruction

Amazing amazing young drummer. Any aspiring drummers should take a listen. Part 1 addresses the mentality of drummers and part 2, the solo deconstruction.

Check out what JB has got to say. I find it really useful.


 

32th odd note

This is a pretty cool concept. We all learned 32th note but most of the time it is in even groupings. Odd grouping add a little twist to it.



This video is from the teacher's camp that Mike's lesson held recently. Do check out Komposteradgalning He improved so much since I saw his videos many years back.

This dude solid drumming and cool fills impressed me very much. Check it out!

Sick solo

 Here is a video of a cool drum off video by JB Bouvet, Guitar Center Drum-Off 2011 Champion. The composition is rhythmic and melodious.

You can make any time signature musical

Here is a clip of Chris Coleman at NAMM, sharing drum tips. Chris Coleman is one of the drummers that I highly respect. It is really heartwarming to see lots of drummers giving back to the drum community!

This is really inspiring and I highly suggest drummers who haven't seen this to check it out. His lesson - "You can make anything musical" is in the 25/15 time signature (Part 3). Crazy cool sick stuff going on. Let's do more mathematical drums.

Do check out part 1 and 2 as well.



 

The Korean Drummer That Steals The Show

This is pretty interesting.


Adapted from the description box:

" Kwon Soon Keun became a worldwide YouTube sensation when someone posted 'Korean Drummer Steals The Show' on YouTube several years ago. I was so fascinated by his drumming and went on to make a documentary film called 'A DRUMMER'S PASSION'. 


 The film was well received by public and it was selected for screenings at 2011 Vancouver Asian Film Festival and 2011 Toronto Reel Asian Film Festival. Mr. Kwon and I were on CP24 and Rogers TV Daytime for interviews and the popularity of the film was so high that we got so much attention despite it is only a short film. Now, we are planning to make a feature film on Mr. Kwon and he seems happy to get his spotlight back at 71. (He is turning 72 in 2012.) 

 He has been playing with young musicians in 20's and 30's and he seems to fit well with them. Recently, he performed in front of more than 600 people and I recorded the performance to share with the rest of the world. This may not become another 'Korean Drummer Steals The Show' but I hope more and more people watch his video and feel the joy as much as I do."

This is how you should spice up a pop song. Sick.
