Are you really willing to do what it takes to be a top-notch studio and live drummer?Hey there, you are listening to Drummer Daily, the Podcast, new world's first and only, I think, daily podcast for drummers. My name is Daniel, I am your host and in case you've never listened to this podcast before, this is how every podcast is. No frills, no music, no intro, just me talking. Why is that? It's because I do it everyday and if I had to do all that other stuff, I would never get around to doing the podcast. I want to do it daily for you guys, so that's why you don't hear any crazy production on this. Speaking of crazy production, and I have heard it from a few of you guys, that you'd like to hear more practical tips for drumming. I hear you loud and clear, so tomorrow I promise you I will have a very practical tip for playing drums with a click track, playing in a studio, playing live. Something that will make everything you're doing stand a lot cleaner and have a little more groove to it.Today, because it's Monday when I'm recording this, you might get this on Tuesday morning, but because it's Monday when I'm recording this, I wanted to talk to you about something that maybe will motivate you for the week. That is this, I have been working on this thing called Boom Click Boot Camp for a while. Today it got to the point where I had to ... It's a 14 day boot camp and each day has 3 or 4 little exercises, that each are about, you know, 4 or 5 minutes long. Each of those exercises needs a click track. It's not just a regular click track, it's going to be one that's programmed. Beats drop in and out, accents change, the click goes away completely for a few bars to kind of make it more of a game, where you can kind of hear how well you're keeping up and how well you're holding the beat down.It kind of makes things a little more fun than just playing along and practicing with a click track, playing the same old thing over and over again. Anyway, I have to program all these click tracks, and I didn't really do the math on the front end, but I realized that fourteen days of exercises and each of those days has between three and five exercises. Which meant that I had to program unique click tracks for each of those three or five exercises each day. You do the math on that and the way it worked out for me is I had fifty-three original click tracks that I had to program, and so I was doing that today. There's not many things like what I'm doing for this boot camp thing, and I always was like, "Why has no one done this before?" And I think I realized today why no one has done this before. It's because it's a lot of work, and that's just making this thing, not all the work that goes into actually making sure people know about it and can participate and all the technical stuff.
