Here is a really cool pattern that helps you build 4-way independence around the drum set! Steve Gadd made this beat famous and I highly recommend watching his video too.

“Like Ice in Water” by the Rocketboys

November 30, 2009 in Drummer resources, General Updates with 1 Comment

Austin, Texas-based band The Rocketboys have released their first new track in over two years.
The track, 'Like Ice In Water', is from the groups upcoming full-length album “20,000 Ghosts,” to be released September 29.

“20,000 Ghosts,” was engineered and produced by Louie Lino (Nada Surf, Matt Pond PA), mastered by Alan Douches (Sufjan Stevens, Animal Collective) and features artwork from “Dark Was The Night” artist, Ryan Feerer.

Describing the new album, guitarist Daniel Wheeler said, “’20,000 Ghosts’ displays a new range of diversity and maturity in our music, while maintaining the pop-sensibility that fans have come to love. We try to find the balance between a light, drum-driven brand of indie rock and darker, more atmospheric sounds coupled with lyrics and melodies you can’t get out of your head.”

The release of “20,000 Ghosts” will be followed by a North American tour and several festival appearances, including CMJ in New York.

This past week I had a little bit of down time to make some drum videos. I've always been fascinated with Afro-Cuban and latin music, so I wanted to share a little bit of my passion with you. I'm no authentic Cuban drummer, but I try to fake it every now and then. I hope you like these drum videos! In these videos I use my custom drum set that I built!
