Samplerbanks has released Urban Drumming Techniques, a video tutorial on Urban style drumming by J. LaToya.

This is a drum video tutorial from top drummer J. LaToiya focuses on the beginner but may be useful if you already have been playing drums for a few years. She teaches you the basic concepts of various drumming techniques like licks, tricks, fills, gospel, slow R&B, Soul, Hip-Hop, some Jazz and how to apply them properly.

Rather than just playing along with tracks, you get the benefit of a full band (teamed up with Gospelmusicians’s Jamal), where they slow down the movements and really take their time to teach, while not being restricted to a set click track.

All-in-all “Urban Drumming Techniques” is a full fledged Urban instructional video that does not just focus on chops, but feel and placement!

Urban Drumming Techniques is available as a download for $60 USD/£37.95 GBP/€42.45 EUR.
