Bro Chun Leng and DXS members

Farid is really an amazing Lead-Guitarists and he sings well (Blues/Rock) - I'm am truly amazed. So is his Drummer (I guess many of you knows him - great guy Sings & Drum Well too)......great team.


The 2 video (The Jazz Band) - the Drummer is none other than Blofeld - a very experience Jazz Drummer as can be seen in the Video. Nice Jazz Drumming by Blofeld too.

The lessons that Audrey and Boon Gee taught in the meet up was so much to absorb in one day, but it definitely helped me in creating awareness to some key pointers about jazz drumming.

One section covered was explaining the clave as a underlying groove in jazz drumming.
2 forms of clave:

1) new orleans 2nd line (which is somewhat similar to the 3 2 clave)
2) Afro-Cuban 6 8

I believe watching the video which mel80 has posted will give you a better idea of this form of clave.

I also came across this solo played by Peter Erskine which has a clave feel of a new orleans 2nd line I believe. He plays a really tastey solo btw. :mrgreen:

Thanks for the Peter Erskine vid spinninsticks. Tasty solo indeed

 

[spinninsticks]

It's my pleasure

I've always dig Peter Erskine's solos and his approach to drumming (Even with the minimal knowledge about jazz music and drumming). Right now that I've understand the fundamentals of jazz and what Peter is doing with the solid vide of a clave in his solo, it appeals so much more to me right now.

 

[melvin]

wah spinninsticks haha your drum terminology damn chim sial haha. and yes e solo's so tastefully done.

 

[spinninsticks]

Hey Melvin, haha no la, if you came earlier for the xchange you would've understand with ease what i'm talking about. You gotta get more alarm clocks to make 100% sure that you can get out of bed early to make it for the xchange man, if not you will miss out on a lot of good stuffs :mrgreen:
