The best anthology to date of Caribbean rhythms for today’s drummers. While the beats are authentic, there is a freshness with which Jean-Philippe plays and teaches these rhythms. His method takes the mystery out of playing many of these beats for non-Caribbean drummers. The modernity and universality of sound that he brings to this music will ensure its enduring legacy. Bravo!”
— Peter Erskine
I am fascinated by his modern and unique way of swingin’ all the Afro-Caribbean rhythms on the kit. This book is a modern treasure for lovers of Caribbean music.”
— Horacio “El Negro” Hernandez
This is the book we’ve been waiting for. Written by an absolute first-class musician, these grooves are organized, explained and played with passion, knowledge and swing! I look forward to using this book in my labs at Berklee.”
