ISBN 9781610659703. Double Basics is a book intended for beginner to intermediate drummers that want to master the art of double bass drumming. At the beginning of the book, there are daily double bass strengthening workouts, as well as double bass fill ideas. There are photos for technique and posture as well. Two additional pages of hand patterns are included so that students who have completed the book can go back through playing the new hand patterns to the written bass drum patterns. The exercises in this book are measure-long exercises, presented in two-bar repeating phrases. This presentation allows the student to see how the end of the pattern relates back to the beginning.

ISBN 9781609743628. This book is the perfect aid to help beginning to advanced drummers learn four-way coordination, or limb independence. Chapter One teaches students many eighth note drum set patterns, each one building on the one before. Chapter Two adds sixteenth note bass drum patterns to the eighth note hand patterns learned in Chapter One. The patterns are further reinforced by having the student play them in four-bar phrases. The student should not simply play the pattern written on the page, but should make it groove and come alive with emotion!
