Mike’s a pretty humble guy – so you know he will explain what he really means with this hyperbolic title.
Mike cover an interesting basic rock-groove emphasizing the appeal of the cymbal crash on "ah" of beat "1" preceding the back-beat on "2".
He also reveals that he will be associated with a prominent drummer as a drum teacher for his on-line lessons. Keeping checking back on his website, www.mikeslessons.com
Black River Music Word is very proud to offer the on-line drum lessons from Mike Johnston.
Mike is a long time international clinician as well as the operator of a full-time a drum school, The Drum Lab, in Sacramento California.
Mike has offered free on-line drum lessons as a subscription for some time now. As a subscriber since late 2007, I thought it would be great to offer a convenient way to access these great educational videos.
The first of the series of lessons by Mike Johnston offered by Black River Music Word initially shows Mike’s superior chops; then proceeds to present a unique method of developing a specific type of independence – verbal! Developing this skill leads logically to the important 4-limb independence required for an accomplished set-drummer.
Initially, BRMW will publish a different lesson every week. After then, whenever Mike creates a new one.
