Groove Systems: Functional Four-Way Coordination Exercises

Tim Carman's newest drum book "Groove Systems" uses ten different musical styles in a unique approach to four way coordination.Each groove is introduced with text explaining it's history and origin.This is followed by transcribed examples and then the systems which provide seemingly endless variations that are both musical and challenging.I know of no other method book that provides this kind of in depth study combining historical context,transcriptions and systems to explore countless variations.Bravo Tim Carman! this book is an absolute bargain at $19.99!!

Our son is excited to explore this book and start expanding on his knowledge and technique, as it is opening his mind to areas of drumming previously unknown to him. Tim Carman is always striving to create and build upon his solid base and to teach and share it with other drummers who never want to stop learning.

Just got this book this week and highly recommend it. It’s a really challenging and unique method and I love how it helps develop styles of music like Reggae, Afrobeat, and Go-go. There’s not a lot out there on Afrobeat or Go-go as well. Looking forward to digging into this further

Fantastic book for intermediate to advanced drummers. It provides a great history of 10 completely different styles of drumming. The exercises are unique and challenging. Highly recommended!
