Introduction to "Trick Or Cheat?"
I started drumming when I was 13, back in the 80's. First on an acoustic drumkit, but as soon as I saw electronic drums, I knew I wanted to switch to electronic drums. Beause I could not afford a new kit, I built my own in the late 80's. Since then, I have been playing electronic drums, both at home and on stage.
I have developed a playing style that is different compared to 'acoustic drummers'. To explain how I play drums and percussion on my electronic kit, I have made a video series of 10 parts. In each video I will show you info on how I play certain grooves. I will leave it up to you, to decide whether these are 'tricks' of 'cheats'!
