Monday Drumday: Swinging it

Yesterday I had an informal recording sessions with some friends including @daniellemurray and @purplesinger. We got together to record some jazz tunes and other songs. I did some singing and guitar, but also took along my little Yamaha drums. Some of the tunes really need a swing rhythm, so I need to practice that.

Earlier this evening I was working on some heavy rock for a Drumeo collaboration, so this is a bit different. Drumeo had an appropriate backing track I could use. It sounds a bit like early Miles Davis.

I just played the basic rhythm with some variations of how I played the drum and cymbals. Jazz soloing is another level.

I hope to see more drummers on Hive soon, but I will keep doing these #drumday videos to motivate myself.

I am trying to upload this again as 3speak reporting a rendering issue. Unfortunately it does not give you the original text you typed in, so I had to do that again.

Rock on, man!
