Music-Courses - Drumming for Dance Music with Paul Kodish (2013)

This new course from Producertech is the first of its kind, bringing you expert tuition from professional musician Paul Kodish, the drummer from legendary bands such as Pendulum, Apollo 440 and DJ Fresh. In this comprehensive series of tutorials, Paul advises on everything from setting up and basic techniques, through to the different strokes and rhythms that create various beats. Then, there are groups of lessons that deal with individual grooves for specific types of dance music, namely HIP HOP, DRUM AND BASS, DUBSTEP and HOUSE & BREAKS. All of the grooves and variations, as well as the different basslines and leads they are played along to, are provided in audio and MIDI format, within Ableton Live, Logic and Reason sessions and also as individual files for those without a DAW. So, whether you own music software or not, you'll easily be able to precisely recreate the beats Paul plays. In addition to the module movies, DAW sessions and accompanying audio and MIDI files, there are a bunch of additional Loopmasters samples in each of the musical genres, so students have even more material to drum along to. For anyone wanting to learn to play professional standard classic dance music beats with an acoustic, electronic or hybrid drum kit, this course is for you!
