2 Gospel Floor Tom Licks - The 80/20 Drummer

Nate Smith August 10, 2016

You know that floor tom stuff the cats do? When I was at NAMM, I watched Sean Wright mess around at an exhibitor booth. And I can tell you: 2016 is the year of the floor tom.

Like most stuff that looks impressive sped-up, or in a surprising rhythmico or orchestration context, a lot of the floor tom alchemy boils down to a few simple, intuitive stickings.

A great many are in the later modules of my coaching course.

But I'm continuing to discover/rediscover/mess around with new ones, and in this lesson I share two basic variations, and some variations on those.

Ready for the lesson?

GIMME!

Quick reminder: I'll be in Japan Sep 30-Oct 10, Bangkok the 10-17, and probably Hong Kong for a few days after that. Want to hang? Lesson? Meetup-followed-by-drinks? (Pay for lesson in drinks? I'm flexible). Get at me!

Peace,

Nate
