Yes, good luck. LOL. Watched them all to get a feel and now going back to beginning to practice.
Excellent.
Are versions coming for other rhythms?
Good approach, Doug. If we get Niall back in the studio (not on the radar for 2018) we’ll look at building out the series with additional rhythms…
So how and where can we use this technique? It’s super cool!, Is it just backup or can it be incorporated into a tune? I’ve tried frinding videos on youtube with little success-just alot of tutorials but not much practical use. Thanks
