Good news for apprentice drummers: the drum method "Reggae Vibrations" has been available since 15 October. As its name suggests, this method is devoted exclusively to reggae patterns (one drop, rockers, boof baf).

To put the method together, Patrick Buchmann, himself a drummer, teacher and author of several books on drumming, met a number of the instrument's leading lights: Sly Dunbar, of course, but also Leroy Horsemouth Wallace and Santa Davis.
With analysis of their playing and of the musical context, and interviews with several artists (Lee Perry, Max Romeo, Israel Vibration), the book is also sold with a CD of 150 tracks for practising the rhythms.
