Trying to master limb independence with J. Chapin's "New Techniques"

dimanche 22 mars 2015

I'm working through Jim Chapin's New Techniques, and find myself having trouble with the section that makes the bass drum a part of the voicing. I can play the snare & bass drum parts with the HH on 2 & 4. But adding in the ride pattern (and really playing the pattern as opposed to just playing quarter notes) results in things falling apart. Even playing the pattern slowly can be a bear.



Unlike some, it takes me a while to develop the coordination and muscle memory when all four limbs are playing discrete patterns. Have any of you with similar challenges found a good routine or exercise for working through them?
