Revolutionizing Rhythm, by Seth Davis, is an avant-garde study guide to the art of advanced drumming, philosophy, personal development, and life achievement and success through the exploration of fundamental studies of awareness, consciousness, human nature, and the universal relationship of rhythm and time. This book also includes over 130 videos to accompany the book text and exercises.

Revolutionizing Rhythm is developed for, inspired by, and dedicated to fellow drummers, musicians, and sophophilics and offers players of any instrument the opportunity to study creative rhythmical examples based on innovative philosophies and theories applicable and practical to arranging and composing percussion.

Seth’s book is specifically designed to assist musicians seeking to develop a deep and intuitive understanding of universal rhythm, time, and timing, resulting in an expanded musical vocabulary and a higher level of rhythmic sophistication.

Davis’ drum lessons use the ABCs of advanced drumming disciplines to teach vertical and horizontal time, create compositions with futuristic rhythms, and focus on time and groove with an emphasis on the backbeat, rather than exercises or patterns that can lead to overplaying and rhythmic rambling.

The lesson layout in this book is arranged and organized by meter. From 4/4 to 25/16, each example gradually increases in complexity due to advancing signatures, complex compounding, and dynamic value.

This rhythm resource highlights Seth Davis’ artistic alphabet and musical vocabulary and is based on his personal and professional life experience.

    Beautifully written and very eye-opening. I have gained an immense amount of knowledge with regards to rhythmical literacy and have more confidence in drumming than ever before. It's opened me up to new ways of thinking when applying my own creative abilities to the drums and percussion in general. I highly recommend this book!

    I have been playing, recording and touring for decades. I have had the fortune of studying with some of the greatest drummers in history so I speak from experience. Seth's book and methods are as revolutionary as they are fundamental. His concepts helped me to make incredible improvements in both my technique and vocabulary. If you want the key to how the top level drummers do those impossible things as well as how the groove masters lay it down, it's here. A Must Read

    Revolutionizing Rhythm isn’t your run-of-the-mill drum book. I consider this to be two books in one. Seth has combined philosophies of drumming with complex rhythmic compositions, taking the reader on an intriguing tour of how his mind works. His insights on approaching training and practice are inspiring and helpful. Mastering just one of his examples will instantly improve your playing, and open your mind to new rhythmic possibilities. I highly recommend this book to any intermediate-advanced drummer looking to get out of a rut!

    Literally within the first hour of taking a lesson with Seth and working through the opening pages of his awesome book, I was already achieving a bigger sound, starting to be aware of space, playing from a place of no ego. Seth Davis has written a book that is not only technically challenging, but also dares your mind and soul to be fully aware while totally working on grooves that are entrenched in Davis’ birthplace of Louisiana! I recommend this book wholeheartedly… it’s an absolute must for any musician!
