hi I'm japanese man.
so if my English was broken, I'm sorry.

I'm looking for some good book for 4way coordination.
about ostinato, good too.
I want to do exercises 4way.

what's your favorite or recommend?


excuse telling my personal story,
I want to do excercises what about..
like those Feel.
Right Hand: RrRr RRrR rRRr rRrr
like octopus's groove
Left Hand: .... L..l .l.l. L...
Right Foot: RR.. .R.. R.R. .R..
Left Foot: .l.l. l..L l.L . .l.l
l=close, L=splash
like these.

OR

Hands: RLRR LRRL RRLR LLRL
Foots: LRLL RRLR LRLR
repeat

4way exercises are so practical, useful I think. and I feel those are also good brain training.

then, it's your turn, talk!

You may find my Time Manipulation drum book interesting. It focuses on coordination within a groove context, offering various ostinato suggestions alongside sections on polyrhythmic grooves, displaced beats, rhythmic manipulation, and more. I think it’s a good introduction to some of the concepts from The New Breed, with its own developments.

@Mojojojo Hi, I transcribed what you wrote, so maybe in the meantime you find the book(s) you are searching, you want to practice your example and record it and send it to the forum to listen!

Best regards and have fun!Ritmo Japon japones.jpg

Learning how to figure out what to practice, on your own without needing guidance, is probably the most powerful skill you can develop, and I don't think you need a book for what you want. If there's something you want to play but don't have the coordination for it, practice and build that specific coordination. If you just want coordination for it's own sake, lead with weak hand, learn random polyrhythms, practice on a left handed kit (assuming you usually play on a right handed one), etc.
