“With Groove Systems, Tim Carman has done an amazing job of taking the process of working on independence and coupled it with an approach that expands your musical knowledge, versatility, and ability to play different styles. Working on your groove coordination while learning material from Tony Allen, Idris Muhammad, Bernard Purdie, Elvin Jones, and many others is a brilliant idea. This is a fresh, relevant, and above all useful drum book!”

Groove System's is a publication that challenges a drummer's capacity to develop control, independence, touch... while at the same time various music styles and genres. This concepts within this book is an evolution of all the great literature that has been written and explored in the past. Groove systems will be one of my go-to resources to work out of and teach out of moving forward."
