Music


Music is a powerful tool composed of melody, harmony, and rhythm. I believe rhythm is the “heartbeat” of not just music, but of life, and has great power. I recommend listening to music every day, especially music with a beat that will make you get up and dance.

You can learn more about rhythm by drumming. Everyone knows how to clap along to a song. That’s drumming. Therefore… since you are already a drummer, why not practice that more, and more? Drumming is dancing with your hands, then your entire body, and eventually your heart.

The randomized list below is useful if you put Google Music on auto-play. Each song will be followed by a totally different automatically generated list of songs based on the starting song. The possibility for the funky funky get down on the get down is endless.
