First things first: grab your transcription below! 👇👇👇
So, I'll confess the next few weeks' lessons are going to be more...rote drum lessons and less "infotainment", for the simple reason that I'm working harder than I've ever worked to produce the Solo Course that 35+ brave souls pre-ordered.
More on that below.
But ransacking the annals of my muscle memory (something that sounds dirtier than it actually is) has left precious few resources to brainstorm how to appeal to vast swaths of the internet, and required me to fall back on habit: teaching stuff I'm actually working on, and not worrying about whether it'll be niche or popular.
Apropos of which, this week's topic arose because I was trying to save myself some time and effort by going off-the-cuff - "we'll do it live!!!".
Which backfired hilariously. (Some of which is documented in this week's lesson.)
What it did leave me with, however, were the source materials to make a far more accessible video, about a concept I've been flogging since 2014, but into which I've never really "deep dived": The Humble Hemiola.
It's of-a-feather with the quarter note triplet, and sometimes it's exactly the same, but it's broader. It's also an attitude. A style. A "how", not just a "what".
So if you're ready to live that #hemilife, you'll dig this week's lesson.
