Product Overview
Published by ADG. Outta Sight Funk and R&B Patterns for Drums by Andrew D. Gordon is designed to help drummers and drum programmers learn or improve their funk drum playing technique with a wide range of different Funk riffs and grooves. The book starts off with easier examples and gradually increases in difficulty as the examples become more syncopated. This book is a companion to Outts Sight Funk & R&B Riffs for Bass. Each of the 55 examples in the book has been recorded twice on the accompanying audio CD. The first time through, you will hear the drum pattern along with a full rhythm section of keyboards, bass and guitar, the second time through you will hear the drum pattern slowed down to 60 beats per minute with a click track playing through the left speaker and the drum pattern playing through the right speaker allowing you to turn the balance control of your stereo system to the left or right so that you can play with either the click track or the drum pattern. Available from the publisher, A.D.G. Productions are play a-long rhythm tracks of all the 55 examples as mp3 files. These mp3 files are around 2 minutes long and contain the rhythm section of keyboards, guitar and bass as well as a click track so that you, the drummer, can practice in a band like situation.
