iDrum magazine: Never miss a beat 123 December 2013 Retour à l'édition précédente

In our jam-packed December issue of Drummer, we bring you interviews with a host of the biggest names in drumming. Godfather of gospel and R&B Gerald Heyward, the incendiary Chris Coleman, session supremo Russ Miller, and ex-Mars Volta sticksman Dave Elitch join us to represent our stateside cousins, while the British connection is ever-present as we speak to the always flamboyant Robin Guy, high-flying Jeremy Stacey, studio ace Ash Soan, and ex-Level 42 legend Phil Gould. Alongside our interviews, we also bring you our in-depth look at the hottest festive gifts available this season, with something to suit all tastes (and budgets) in our mega Christmas Gift Guide. On the subject of gear, in our review section we cast our eyes over a stunning, natural-looking teak kit from Odery’s Custom series range, a brace of new wood-shell snare drums from Sakae, a selection of crashes, splashes and effects cymbals from Paiste’s Signature Precision range and a superb, value-for-money rock kit from Sonix’s 922 series. All of this plus our regular top-notch tuition, fresh and funky features and all the latest news from the world of drumming.
***EXCLUSIVE DIGITAL CONTENT***
Exclusive to our digital version, we have a range of videos to accompany our interviews, including Chris Coleman, Robin Guy, Russ Miller, Jeremy Stacey, Ash Soan and Phil Gould, with each featuring explosive excerpts of their performances filmed at this year’s London Drum Show. We also have a full video explanation and demonstration from our resident drumming guru Martin Ranscombe in his ‘Problem Shared’ feature. All of this plus handy links to your favourite drum companies make for a packed digital experience.
