Stick Control (Play-Along): A Real Game Changer

Описание: Stick Control is arguably the most important academic book in drummers' history. Despite being published almost 100 years ago, it is still a best seller! This book has been highly recommended by some of the most recognized drummers in the past century, and for a good reason!

Practicing Stick Control offers way more benefits than you would expect from just a bunch of simple patterns. Don't be fooled by its simplicity. If you look under the surface, you will realize the infinite source of knowledge behind each one of these patterns.

Practicing Stick Control effectively and consistently will immediately upgrade every single major skill required to flow with ease between your ideas:

Coordination: Memorizing these patterns will improve your reaction time.

Time: Playing the same figure with different sticking patterns will improve your "Inner Quantizing System", meaning that you will understand the placement of each note on a deeper (way deeper) level.

Flow: Playing the same figure with different sticking patterns will develop incredible muscle memory to the point where playing drums will become as easy as speaking your native language.

Speed: You've probably heard something like "If you want to play fast, you need to practice slow." Well, it is true. The good news is that anyone can do this. There are no innate skills required!
Speed is nothing but the consequence of the consistent and focused practice. Don't even worry about this ;)

I am not being paid to promote this book. It really changed the way I play, and I hope it does the same for anyone who feels "stuck". I promise this works!
