Rhythm is the key to much of what we aspire to be as players. Solid rhythm
chops get you mo re
gigs; expand your musical horizons and translate directly into better
soloing chops. And there’s’ nothing better
than a new “groove” to bust out of that proverbial “rut” we all sink into
from time to time. No doubt about it, rhythm is king.
Rhythmic Grooves thoroughly examines how rhythmic patterns are constructed,
executed and applied to various styles of music. This intensive study
program will turn your whole understanding of rhythm right-side up.
You’ll start at ground zero “playing drums” on the guitar and learning how
to get “in the pocket” and stay there. You’ll progress into the
“ring/dead” technique
with a variety of right-hand picking combinations. Slurs and ties are then
introduced with
techniques for deleting pick strokes. These approaches are then applied to
creating and executing
“bubble parts” for maximum groove. You’ll learn to master double and triple
subdivision patter ns,
advanced cross-rhythms and triplet rhythms. In
short, Rhythmic Grooves will overhaul every aspect
of your rhythm
skills.
