Interesting about your bass drum sound Gavin. I too love your playing and your sound. I also enjoy working out of your Rhythmic Illusions book. In fact, I had never heard the term "rhythmic scale" before that particular section of your book. I have incorporated the scales, mainly the first...

I sit so that the angle of my upper leg is parallel with ground when I raise my heels up as far as I can. I don't know much about Colin's technique but I must admit that I don't personally think that having too much "leg" on my throne will prevent me from reaching any particular speed. Goo...

Very interesting. I can totally relate to that feeling of the stick slipping out of my hand until I'm left holding near the butt. Then I have to choke back up to get to my ideal position. I started to really notice this when I began playing much harder and moved to a extreme 5b. I should have never ...
