Their creative compositions are documented as “RB”’s in the subsequent Drum Extreme Modules created by the students. Principles of design and pattern creation are applied to electronic drum kits, cups, (glow) basketballs and buckets, with other various forms of creative timbre. Artistic expression inspired by imagination and experimentation is carefully choreographed into the these drum compositions and uploaded to our DrumX platform.

As a class, we arrange well known compositions into funky bass grooves and explore the concepts of rhythm, chording, scales and solos. The Bass Extreme class is popular with young people as we delve into artistic expression using neon strings and black lights, and any number of creative props designed to take this educational platform to the “Extreme”.
*More advanced students of bass continue on to study walking bass lines, jazz standards, and composition.
