drumming with fun

The CD offers the perfect accompanying band for all drummers that like to practice with a 'bandfeeling'. In order to make it easy for beginners, a metronom, which can be heard on the left canal, has consciously been added, and if necessary can also be turned off with the pan-control of the stereo.

Suggested by different customers and as a special present, Tunesday Records has added 2 bonus tracks with vocals (by 'CALAITA' and TAMARA STIEß) to the CD which are available as a version just for listening and as a playback-version to play along to each. This accompanying band is 'irresistible' as it always stays on beat (metronom numbers are published in the booklet!) which allows you not only to practice the grooves, but also the precise Timing (timekeeper) .

The CD has an ingenious structure: apart from various Rock-Pop and Ballads-Grooves (Playalongs) there are Drum-Groove-Examples to each playback. The playbacks are counted two beats with the metronom so that you can already practice a couple of short Intro-Fills to get into the right feeling. In order to indicate the endings clearly the speed of the metronom has been doubled by the end of the tracks in the last round.

To make sure that the drummer can concentrate on the groove of the other instruments nearly all solo-voices have been left out. But there are a few short Solo-spots (guitar, saxophone, piano) and instrumental topics which give relief to the whole thing. The CD has been produced on the suggestion of engaged drummers, music traders as well as percussion teachers.

We distributed samples to traders before the publication of the CD and earned some very positive resonances. Tunesday Records wants to fullfill the demand for a special Pop/Rock-Playalong-CD for percussion-beginners with this CD.

 The total length of the CD is 78:56 minutes which is only 2 seconds less than what you could get with the glasmaster. This CD is a must go for all percussion-beginners wishing to improve their groove-skills and who simply want to give their enjoyment of playing a lift!

The CD was produced by Martin Häne and is the second CD of the series 'Playbacks for Drummers'. The first CD (Vol.1) of the series was produced by the Groove it-publisher Jörg Sieghart who earned some great press comments with the CD 'Playbacks for Drummers Vol.1' as well as with his CDs 'Playbacks for Improvisation' (for leadinstruments).
