Jason Bittner, award-winning drummer for Shadow Fall, presents a complete educational look at modern metal drumming in What Drives The Beat.
Topics covered include double-bass technique, rudimental applications, blast beats, fills, two-surface riding, soloing, and more. Jason also presents his complete 'Double Bass Crash Course', a complete method for gaining technical facility with the feet. All of the exercises are clearly explained and demonstrated, and included in a complete PDF eBook, which can be printed out and used to practice along with the DVD. Foot cameras and split screen shots allow you to see everything that is played.
Also included are several musical performances, a free-form solo, and bonus features including additional live solo footage, Jason's complete warm-up/stretching routine, a photo gallery, and unreleased in-concert performances.
