Learn about the wonderfully rich music which is derived from the fusion of the cultures of West-Africa, Europe, and the indigenous Indian cultures of the Caribbean region with this book/online audio pack. Most of the rhythms presented here have evolved from their original multiple percussion origins, and have been applied to the drumset. For each style sample or exercise, the online accompanying track contains a performance demo and then a version without the drums for you to play-along. If you want to be a well-rounded, well trained musician, this publication provides the information and exercises that will give you a strong musical foundation in these important genres.
