You might best know Rob 'Beatdown' Brown from his popular YouTube channel, but after you watch this hour-long lesson you'll also know him for his incredible sense of pocket and groove.

Rob emphasizes that "no one will yell at you for sitting in the pocket," and that overplaying isn't necessary. Most drummers get hired to play pocket, and for their sharp decision-making skills: knowing what to play and where to play it.

In this lesson, you'll learn that drum parts don't need to be flashy to work, and how to get into the right headspace before practicing your pocket. That's why Rob is confident that this is something you can improve 'overnight': it's a conceptual exercise that'll help you immediately change the way you think about drumming.

Once you find your rhythmic foundation, you'll learn how to practice playing in the pocket, how to use the click in a few different ways, and why you should play 'from the ground up' by focusing on your feet first.

After this lesson, you'll know why the hi-hat is such a powerful tool for creating grooves and why internalizing subdivision is so important.
