Product Information

Ed Thigpen’s wit and humor shine through on every page, making The Sound of Brushes a must-have for any drummer’s library. This book will teach you how to drum faster while wasting less energy and reducing the risk of injury.

Exploring and practicing these rudiments will ensure that you’ll develop your repertoire of drum fills as well. So do not stress if you cannot get too far in this book but study the prologue of it and you will be set.Hello everyone, I am the author of a drum method distributed by Hudson Music in eBook format, and independently in print format. As for the grip, try and ‘pinch’ it so your fingers go just beyond the sides of the stick – so when you’re cross sticking, you aren’t muting the rim. But as for conquering the “technical side”… Are there good method books out there that you should start with?

The book The Roots of Rock Drumming : Interviews with the Drummers Who Shaped Rock ‘n’ Roll will most certainly help you find motivation for your further practice. Honestly it is quite amazing how many different beats and grooves you will discover here, it is like Stick Control, but for grooves.

The book contains a series of Portraits, or exercises, gradually becoming more difficult as the reader advances. This is one of the main types of books I use in my teaching, for learning to read, count, and play rhythm, and understand basics of drumming and of musical structure. Images of the most helpful drum set arrangements used in all musical genres are also included in The Drummer’s Toolbox, assisting drummers in selecting the appropriate equipment. Readers can use more than 90 transcriptions of breaks and beats that serve as an in-depth insight into this drumming subgenre.
