Rhythm Magazine 100 Drum Heroes PDF download. Rhythm, the UK's biggest-selling drum magazine, presents 100 Drum Heroes, a unique bookazine celebrating 100 of the world's most incredible drummers. Based on interviews and profiles published in Rhythm over its 27-year history, alongside beautiful new and classic photos of the drumming stars, 100 Drum Heroes brings together many of the most influential drum kit players of all time across a broad range of musical genres.
A unique collection of interviews and profiles from the makers of Rhythm magazine!
The 100 drummers included in this bookazine has each brought something special to bear on the music for which they are best known. Take any of the great tracks on which our Drum Heroes played and remove their beats, replacing them perhaps with a programmed drum machine beat, and you’d lose so much of the music’s personality and enduring appeal. Drums are both the backbone and the soul of music. So it wasn’t easy to compile our list of 100 Drum Heroes for inclusion. Not because there aren’t a hundred, there are far more than that and the hardest part was deciding who to leave out. Drummers and fans of drumming all have their opinions, and you’re a discerning lot. But we hope we’ve covered a diverse array of styles and genres, as well as generations, of the greatest drummers who have ever graced a drum throne.
This is not a list of the best drummers, necessarily, it is 100 players – nearly all of whom have been interviewed in Rhythm magazine since its 1985 inception – who have inspired, and continue to inspire, players to pick up sticks and keep the art and tradition of the drumset alive and kicking. Enjoy!
