Odd Meters for Drum Set breaks new ground in drum set instruction by taking the fear and intimidation away from learning these foreign meters. Colin O’Donohoe worked diligently to ensure that these patterns are first broken into the most basic ingredients and then slowly added to until you are grooving in the odd meters and playing tasteful articulate phrases.

Through his experience performing in Turkish ensembles, Colin O’Donohoe was able to learn a new approach to how these meters are played. Colin was taught by masterful Turkish musicians who showed him how they approach the odd meters. They were able to play flowing virtuosic patterns with ease while staying on the beat. They showed him how to do it too, and now through this book he shares these tips with you.

Odd Meters for Drum Set will give you the skills, independence, and solid abilities to groove in many odd meters. Patterns can be added to each other to create endless possibilities of meter patterns. This is a true “must have” in any serious drummer’s library of lesson books. It is the only book out to date that is so extensive in the teaching of these patterns.
