Beat 2 Beat: Origins, Evolution and Rhythms for the Contemporary World

After "BEAT TO BEAT" and "PULSO a PULSO" - (the first step for the drummer), it's time to delve into more intricate 16ths and fills, a vast stock of contemporary rhythms, and an exploration of the great masters who gave place to drum solo development.An idea that I have considered very useful is to provide you with a portfolio of contemporary rhythms that you can use as a dictionary of styles and concepts that serve you in your musical needs for these times, and as a rhythmic library for the future.This way you will find this wide range of rhythms that apply the technical resources you learn as you progress with the book: Funk, Reggaee, Rap, Fusion, Rhythmic Ballad, Blues, Rock & Funk, Jazz-Rock, Reggaet?n, Disco, Samba, Rhumba Flamenca, Rhythm & Soul, Hip-Hop, Drum & Bass, Trance Chill-Out, House, Tribal, Punk, Happy Punk, Grunge, Metal, Cha-cha-cha and Alternative.I also present to you a compendium of the evolution of the drum solo during the first half of the 20th century through the study of the styles and techniques of the masters who, with intelligence and inspiration, made it possible for techniques and skills to work together to achieve that the drums made its way with prominence andpersonality. The names of these pioneers will become familiar in your musical culture: Tony Spargo, Warren "Baby" Dodds, Chick Webb, Zutty Singleton, Gene Krupa, Buddy Rich, Cozy Cole, Sid Catlett, Papa Jo Jones, Kenny Clarke, Max Roach, Louie Bellson, Shelly Manne, Frank Isola and Art Blakey.I apologize in advance if I omitted names of important drummers and great performers (which surely must be), which would never be my intention. The list of names is the one that in my information and consideration is the most influential in the dawn of the battery and the 20th century.It is my wish that this book will help you broaden your vision and criteria about the drums and encourage you to achieve your musical goals.
