Learning drum rudiments is essential for every drummer but just practicing with a pad or a snare drum speeding up then slowing down in the traditional method can become a bit tedious. This book has been designed to help intermediate and advanced drummers develop rudiment speed with play-along tracks that start slowly accelerate then slow back down. But what sets it apart from other rudiment books is musical grooves in a number of different styles which help the drummer to hear the sticking patterns. The melodies in the tracks mirror and/or compliment the left and right hands of the rudiment. This book and the accompanying play-alongs will motivate any drummer to work longer and become better at rudiments because they make practice fun!
