ELECTRONIC GROOVES AND RHYTHMS
Within the world of electronic music, the beat is everything. Particularly if your music is designed to be played in clubs or at raves or festivals, its impact is going to live or die on the strength of your drum groove.
That’s why we spend a lot of time focussing on getting the right drum sounds; from buying the best drum machines to gathering pristine sample packs. But having great drum sounds is only half the battle, what’s the use in having great sounding hits if you can’t arrange them into a killer drum groove? It’s that latter part of the equation we’re homing in on with this issue’s cover feature. Join us as we go in deep on constructing drum patterns, adding groove, switching things up for fills and turnarounds and exploring the depths of humanisation and creative polyrhthms.

Recording great drum sounds is one of the most challenging tasks facing any drummer, audio engineer, or music producer. Capturing the variety, nuance, and excitement of the drum kit and other percussion instruments is part art, part science, and part creative experimentation--and there's a lot more to it than simply setting up a mic and hitting the Record button.

A unique collection of interviews and profiles from the makers of Rhythm magazine!
The 100 drummers included in this bookazine has each brought something special to bear on the music for which they are best known. Take any of the great tracks on which our Drum Heroes played and remove their beats, replacing them perhaps with a programmed drum machine beat, and you’d lose so much of the music’s personality and enduring appeal. Drums are both the backbone and the soul of music. So it wasn’t easy to compile our list of 100 Drum Heroes for inclusion. Not because there aren’t a hundred, there are far more than that and the hardest part was deciding who to leave out. Drummers and fans of drumming all have their opinions, and you’re a discerning lot. But we hope we’ve covered a diverse array of styles and genres, as well as generations, of the greatest drummers who have ever graced a drum throne.
This is not a list of the best drummers, necessarily, it is 100 players – nearly all of whom have been interviewed in Rhythm magazine since its 1985 inception – who have inspired, and continue to inspire, players to pick up sticks and keep the art and tradition of the drumset alive and kicking. Enjoy!
