It’s easier than ever to make a beat these days - but can you make a beat that surprises listeners, turns heads, and serves the music in just the right way?
That’s Ian Chang’s specialty: creating highly distinct drum parts and beats that push and pull a song in interesting and emotive ways. He’s done it for his bands Son Lux and Landlady, for artists like Moses Sumney, CHVRCHES, and Matthew Dear, and in his own solo electronic music - and it’s one reason he’s one of the most sought-after drummers on the scene today.
In his course, "Ian Chang: Warped Rhythms & Abstract Beats", drummer, producer, and electronic composer Ian Chang explores the unique style of genre-defying playing and composing he’s adopted over years of experimentation behind a drum kit. He’ll guide you to improve your internal clock and explore polyrhythms, to write off-kilter drum parts and learn how to play them, and to expand your sonic palette. He’ll load you up with exercises that will challenge and push you, and break down a few of his most intriguing rhythmic treatments.
Whether you’re a drummer looking to improve your skills or a producer wanting to make more interesting beats, this course is all about upping your rhythmic game to unlock and harness the emotional power of rhythms and beats.
“In this course, I’m going to show you how to strengthen your relationship with time,” Ian proclaims, “and also mess with it.”
