How to play качели on drums

92 bars of 4/4 at a walking 100 BPM, 3:41 of playing, on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, mid tom, floor tom and kick.

What the course does

It cuts the song into 22 exercises -- the grooves, the fills, and the joins between sections, which is where players actually come off -- and puts them in the order a teacher would. Each one opens on a reduction you can already play and adds the notes back a rung at a time, with a tempo to reach and a gate to pass before the next.

  1. The grooves the song is built on -- N -- 4 exercises, about 25 minutes.
