As some of you will know if you visit the main Drum Connexions site every few days, the Drum Connexions Shop is now up and running!
Check it out if you haven't already

This is the exclusive new miniature Pearl Forum model (as you can see it's shorter than a normal stick ), which comes with miniature hardware and cymbals, as well as miniature copies of the first four issues of Drum Connexions Magazine. The miniature room and sticks are not included

One thing that just came to mind concerning bass drum stickers. For those of us who don't like the idea of stickers, but still wanna put Drum Connexions on our bass drum (and we all should...the magazine deserves our public support) are we allowed to get the logo reproduced by a printer onto our bass skins. Will Drum Connexions give us permission to do that. Just thought I'd bring it up here...it seems to fit in with the stickers thing...yeah...

Heh, it's quite amusing if you really do look at the photos and imagine the kit is miniature, etc.

If the DC sticks are available, I'll prob'ly buy a pair at some stage. And I'll get the two back issues soon, I think.

I finally found it. Man, that took a while Maybe the internet is slightly more confusing than I anticipated... Anyway, some nice books you got on there...may have to dig into my pockets and see what I can get.

I bought "The Art of Modern [url=http://www.drumandbass.org]jazz[/url] Drumming" by Jack De Johnette and Charlie Perry - arrived yesterday, in fact

It looks like quite a big detailed book so that should occupy me for a while

That's the one that took my fancy. Tell me what you think of it. I might go for it myself.

I'll have to work through a bit more to give a decent "appraisal"

Just as an overview though, here's the stuff the book covers:

Book I

Improvisation
Cymbal rhythms
Interaction of parts
Meter within meter
Song form
Rhythm section
Clave: a universal rhythm
Phrasing: think like a horn
Muscular tension
Body motion

Book II

Ways of practice
Performance patterns

Book III

Ways of practice
Performance patterns


In total, about 120 pages of stuff

But we're not derailing the thread really
Cos the book we're discussing is available from the Drum Connexions Shop

Along with a few others

There now we're back on track

Sounds very good, I'm getting tempted more and more. Keep me informed.

Question,

Does our forum account work as an account for the online shop?
