Sorry for that graphic. I promise, no more AI slop. Not much more. Here is more video— I’m recording lots of my practicing right now, as I get my video act together.
Here I’m playing along with the loop of the montuno from Bamboleate, sampled from the Eddie Palmieri / Cal Tjader record of the same name. The groove is a Mozambique, about which I’ve written pretty copiously. And there’s a goodly amount of soloing.
It’s really not practicing, it’s just playing, which I’m told I should not do, but I don’t know how people convert their practice stuff into a playing texture without doing some of this. Maybe it’s all supposed to happen on the gig. I really don’t worry about it, this is what I have to do to live.
I am happy to help you with any of the materials on the site, and with anything else drumming related— contact me for private lessons, online world wide, or in person in Portland, Oregon. All levels of players, and all people, are welcome.
