Here is what great musicians and educators have been saying about Advanced Rhythmic Concepts for the Modern Drummer (video included) Antonio Sanchez- “I’ve been a fan of Steve’s playing since the 90’s when I used to live in Boston. He has always been an inventive and original drummer with great feel and command of the instrument. I think this book is a great example on how he might have gotten there. Advanced Rhythmic Concepts for the Modern Drummer draws from great methods such as Syncopation and Stick Control and adds a modern twist to it. The addition of the Konnakol syllables is a very fresh way to approach and command independence and overall control on the drum set. A great book for anybody that is looking to improve, no matter what level you’re at.” - Antonio Sanchez Master Drummer / Musician (performed with Pat Metheny, Michael Brecker, Danilo Perez, Gary Burton, Chick Corea, etc) John Ramsay- Longtime Boston first-call drummer, Steve Langones book Advanced Rhythmic Concepts for the Modern Drummer is a welcome addition to the drummers library. This is one of only few books available on the topic of meter within meter or, as Steve describes it, primary pulse and secondary pulse. Although the concept of polyrhythm is not new, Steve presents it in a way that is both practical and easily applied to the drum set. Borrowing from perhaps the most sophisticated rhythm theory in the world, Langone uses South Indian Konnakol syllables to help one to hear and internalize the cross rhythms. Presented in a series of grids (over 60!) and helpful suggestions on how to apply them or orchestrate them on the drums, this material will provide drummers and musicians with a challenge for a long time to come! “ - John Ramsay Chair, Percussion Department Berklee College of Music Bob Gullotti- One of the most forward concepts in drum set playing these days is the approach of multiple times being played at the same time. Steves book is the STATE OF THE ART in this concept. Very well explained and written, and a great challenge for all of us.” - Bob Gullotti Master Drummer / Educator Member of The Fringe International Recording Artist Available at AMAZON.COM and..In Massachusettes Boston Drum Center in Acton, 24/7 DRUMS in Winchester, North Shore Drum Shop in Beverly, The Symphony Shop in N.Dartmouth, Berklee Bookstore in Boston. youtu.be/7izOh2_6VVk
