What the course does

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 -- A -- 2 exercises, about 20 minutes.
  2. Through the Chorus and Part S2 -- 3 exercises, about 24 minutes.
  3. Through the Outro and the Outro 2 -- 6 exercises, about 30 minutes.
