Here’s what Jacob has to say about learning how to gain great rhythmic abilities, "For me, experiential learning is way, way more important than intellectual learning". -- Taken from YouTube below. “Poly-rhythms is about being exact but life is not about being exact”. “In life, you learn most - when you take a step forward,… Continue reading Experiential Learning by Jacob Collier
“It’s easy to play any musical instrument: all you have to do is touch the right key at the right time and the instrument will play itself.”

By always playing with great, inspiration rhythm tracks like Song Rhythm Tracks. You will internalise the timing on so many levels from the swing within the bar to musical structure of the song. Without trying you will listen and learn from great rhythm artists. You can do much the same playing along with artists recordings except you'll have to make sure you don't get in their way!

If we don't already include a particular rhythm, we would like to work with a drummer to include it. This involves making high-quality audio recordings of the drumming at multiple tempos including multiple shots and fills used in turnarounds. The audio recording will be analyzed to identify where the various aspects occur and the preference level of each occurrence. This is the basis for Alive Drumming to incorporate additional rhythms into their Song Rhythm Tracks. If you are a drummer and have a rhythm you'd like to be represented please email <a href="mailto:feedback@alive-drumm
