The Time Space and Drums Odd-Time Drumming Foundation Course includes six odd-time meter drumming lessons, designed to take the beginner to intermediate drummer through a process that adds a variety of odd-time meters to the drummers existing abilities. Using the already developed jazz and rock drumming development skills covered through parts one to four of this series the beginner to intermediate student drummer enhances his/her skills through practicing these vital odd-time rhythms and techniques.

This course of odd-time drumming lessons covers 3/4 and 6/8 time using 1/4 note, 1/8th and 1/16th note rhythms as well as 5/4. 7/4, 9/4, 5/8, 7/8 and 9/8 rhythms designed to build a solid base of odd-time drumming skills. So, the student will emerge with a set of fully developed odd time drumming skills that can be integrated with the skills developed in parts three and four of the series. The beginner to intermediate drummer can then play more creatively within odd-time meters.

More advanced odd-time drumming techniques are built on these most vital fundamental odd-timing and coordination skills once the student gains better control over these important skills and they are integrated into the student drummers’ skill set.

About The 12 Part Series

The time space is a 12 part drumming course aimed at the beginner. However, we created the course specifically to enable drummers of any level to become a great drummer.

That is because every exercise integrates with the previous exercise, meaning you build from the very first step to the final steps, one step at a time...

This makes the course suitable for the complete beginner or the more advanced player, (advanced playing is simply the degree of mastery over basic techniques - of course having mastery over the basic concepts gives you more facility to perform more advanced rhythms and drumming in general) therefore the course is suitable for all levels of skill. That said, advanced players should view these contents as additional material only, to their current study regime. For those it is like going to the gym and building muscles harder than they currently are.
