My Movie Project

Product Info:

We are offering two hours of mind blowing performances, detailed instruction, and inspiring lectures from someone who cares very deeply about the future of the percussion industry.

That someone is John Donovan.

Drumline Vs. Drumset is a tool any drummer can use. Drumset players will want to explore drumline playing to hone their mechanical skills and learn new academic theories and techniques. Drumline players will want to explore drumset playing to expand their emotional range and create new career paths and opportunities. This DVD showcases a conflict that has been raging in John’s drumming soul since he was first introduced to drum corps. The DVD explores various musical and performance elements, everything from extreme rudimental drumming to heavy metal to classical musicianship.

Lecture topics on this video include: Drum Stroke Science, Flam Patterns versus Independence, More versus Less, Benefits of Drumline, and Benefits of Drum Set.

Included on this enhanced DVD are 109 mp3 files and 35 pdf’s. The pdf’s are sheet music for the sequenced and live drumline music, broken down from full drumline score to individual parts. The mp3’s are virtually everything you need to play along on drumset, snare, tenors and bass drum including: Full Drumline with and without click, Snare Drum with and without click, Tenors with and without click, bass drums with and without click, Drumline minus Snare with and without click, Drumline minus Tenors with and without click, Drumline minus Bass Drums with and without click and Full Production minus drumset with and without click.

On this DVD, John Donovan exposes his well rounded Drumline training and professional drumset expierence on not just one of the most eccentric drumset battle stations ever designed “Modern Drummer Magazine, March 2008 – Kit Of The Month,” shredding on radical progressive original music, but he also executes stunning performances on rudimental snare, multi-tenor and bass drum. While some of the rudimental footage, from both the performance and compositional standpoint showcases John demonstrating discliplined modern day musical applications of the snare, multi-tenor and bass drum, some of it, without a doubt, displays Johns quintessential dedication to extreme corps style drumming.
