A complete book dedicated to the analysis and applications of flams. The first half of
the book describes in clear detail the grace note placement and the effects it has on the
flam regarding time, sound and pulse. Rudimental flam studies and applications are also
studied in great depth. The second half of the book discusses the flams' evolution to the
drum set in rock, funk, jazz, and afro-cuban styles, both in actual beats and fils. With the
clear explanations and chop building exercises provided, this text is an outstanding source for
in-depth study of the flam rudiment.
