Randy Black: The Black Book - An Introduction To Creative Metal Drumming

Randy Black is synonymous with extreme metal drumming and with many years of performance and teaching experience behind him, the master is releasing this 2 DVD pack so that anyone can benefit from his wealth of knowledge. "What started out as a plan to record a few songs in pro quality for promotional purposes ended up being this double DVD, filmed and recorded at Monongo Studios in Berlin, Germany. When I approached ROAX films about it they suggested I do a full-fledged instructional DVD. It was not my original plan but after thinking it over and coming up with a concept I thought I'd give it a shot. It also had to do with the fact that I'd been teaching for quite a few years and knew I had something to offer to a wide variety of levels of players. I hope you can take something from these DVDs and apply it to your playing in your own personal way. With today's recording methods it's very common that certain programs/software are used to improve or fix someone's playing; it's standard procedure. I wanted this DVD to be "old school" in the sense that there was not one note I played that was moved or quantized. Nor were there any samples used. I wanted the listener/viewer to hear and see how I play naturally and how the drum kit sounds acoustically. Every single drum note you hear played on this DVD was played by yours truly, from start to finish" - Randy Black Disk 1 Includes: Basic rudiments on the practice pad Advice to young drummers Hand grip and technique Stretching and stick tricks Applying various rudiments on the kit Hi-hat foot technique Independence exercises/moving accents Various fills and rhythms from Randy's recordings Crossovers Applying different styles to metal music Tools of the trade 3 solos - pad/studio/live Disk 2 includes: Documentary/Interview Drum performance of 7 songs: Seven Seals/Primal Fear Hit You Harder/Skew Siskin Blood On Your Hands/Primal Fear Heart Of A Brave/Primal Fear Blackened Beauty/Marcus Frostbauer A Promise From Underneath/DuskMachine Cold Blooded/Annihilator (Cover Version)
