VIDEO LESSSON - Jazz Drummers Workshop: Shifting Sands (From the May 2014 Issue) buff.ly/Re22g5 Transitioning from one time signature, tempo, or musical style to another is a very common technique in modern jazz. These shifts are often referred to as metric modulations, where a specific note value from the current tempo becomes the quarter-note pulse in a new tempo. Tony Williams, Jeff Tain Watts, Vinnie Colaiuta, and Ari Hoenig are masters of this concept. In order for a transition to work out smoothly, its important for you to be as articulate and clear as possible with your rhythms. As you approach the shift, you need to provide a foundation that makes the band comfortable, without disrupting the flow of the time. #drums #drummer #drummers #jazz #learn #video #howto #drumming #ModernDrummer
