Drum Rudiments are specific patterns that the sticks play that make up the various beats and fills that the drummer uses in a song.

To master the Drum Rudiments you first have to play them slowly and carefully on a practice pad or snare drum, and then when you’ve got the sticking pattern down you can use the Rudiment in your drum patterns on the Drum Set.

I’ve talked a lot about Rudiments on one of my other Blogs, The Percussion Education Blog

The Single best product available for helping you learn the Rudiments is the Drum Rudiments System from Railroad Media. In this product Lionel Duperon methodically demonstrates the 40 Drum Rudiments, and then demonstrates applications on the Drum Set

The Rock Drumming system advanced book contains complex drum music sheets including Crossover Exercises, Open/Close Hi-hat patterns and Linear Beats.

If you really want to accelerate your Rock Drumming you’ll find hours and hours of inspiration and material to work through with the Advanced workbook from the Rock Drumming System.

I’ve spent many hundreds of dollars and many hours working through Drum Books, and I’ve found that a major indicator of how good a book is is how long it can get me working at it on the drums.

The Advanced Workbook from the Rock Drumming system will have you working for hours to master all of the complex patterns in it – and you’ll experience true growth as a musician if you work through it all.

Just today a package arrived from Railroad Media, including The Rock Drumming System by Jared Falk. I purchased this course so that I’d really be able to give you a good idea of the course and its content.

I’m really impressed by the detail that is included in this System, and I’ll review each of the books and DVDs one by one as I watch them and check out what the entire system has to offer beginners on the Drums.

In the beginner DVD Jared walks you through how to tune and set up your drum set to get great sounds. Even though I’ve been drumming for years this still showed me a few tips and tricks that I didn’t know about how to get great sounds from the toms.

In the Beginner DVD Jared’s also got a great way of explaining basic beats – he slows them down so that beginners aren’t confused about the notation.

The DVD screen is split into multiple parts, so that you can see the notation on the top, and mulitple camera angles underneath showing each beat being played.

The Workbook has also got all the beats and fills played on the Video written out in easy to read notation.

Even if you’ve never picked up a pair of sticks before you’ll find that you can quickly get playing drums using this system.

The best thing about a home learning course like this one is that you have the freedom to work with it at your own pace, and you can refer back to the DVD if you are unsure of what is offered with it.
