The beauty of this concept is that you don’t have to think about where and how rudiments should be installed in grooves, but the concept itself provides the drummer with a fascinating and elegant method to integrate different rudiments into grooves.

Once you have internalized this concept, you receive the key to new rhythm dimensions right in your hand. The intention of this book is to build up an adequate groove and fill vocabulary from which you can draw in different situations as a drummer.
