You the best so far boss JP love the way you take your time to express things

[@Drummerwolf]

Watching JP after years as i lost track for the last year or two. Its absolutely awesome how this guy is still at it on polishing his own element and plus guiding other to it. Appreciate it!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@JPBouvet]

I appreciate that man. I’ve been M.I.A. the past three years because I was in shook getting a psychology degree. But now I’m BACK!

[@joeybaggadoughnutts9075]

I love the fact JP makes me smile and gives him the musician's giggle of recognition! Keep it up to me you are the Weckl of today's drummer! I also enjoy Patrick Keeler as well.

[@Em-ws2tr]

As a drummer predominantly playing jazz, I must say this is one of the most valuable lessons for soloing ever!!! Thank you so much JP!

[@JPBouvet]

That’s extremely encouraging to hear! Thank you! If you feel like diving way deeper, check out the Triplet Fills & Chops course on my website for free this month with the TRIPLETNINJA code

[@Hardcorepunk87]

I've unknowingly been doing this at a fairly simple level already. The way you explained it and wrote it out makes a lot of sense! I'm also jealous that Benny popped in to say hi!

[@JPBouvet]

That’s great to hear! Sometimes you just need to add some structure to the ideas you’re already playing in order to get more juice out of them. That is half the work I do with my students: help leverage the potential of the patterns they already know.

[@volpe_sol]

Been following you since forever :D .. So glad to witness your evolution through the years, and am super grateful for all the teachings! Keep up the awesome work.

[@steverussell3207]

Came to you via 80/20 Drummer. The scales have fallen from my eyes ! Transcendent!

[@hanbo123]

Great teacher

[@ralphkolarik4115]

You can easily read melody's this way and get as you say infinite ideas, and sound like the tune too. The original way to solo from a zillion years ago was to play the melody one time through then the second time through extrapolate from that. you can do this with any rhythm not just triplets. The nice thing about doing this for awhile is you learn a zillion tunes, you get in the slot of the style and your working on all of those other things you suggested, you can put constraints as you call them on your playing while reading them, bass drum on X right hand on Y etc. its endless. get your reading and a lot of things together, but also get into the style of whatever melodies your working out... its also fun and pretty soon your scatting all kinds of stuff on your own, drawing from all this stuff you have been reading and goofing off with in your own way.

[@fabriceesnault5812]

Never seen such a valuable lesson since a long time ! I take notes, I sing in the train to go to work... Thank you!

[@ganzrawr5334]

Just subbed a day ago. 23 years playing with little formal music education. Your lesson gave me immediate results. Thank you!

[@JPBouvet]

Great! Sometimes we need a little structure, but it doesn’t have to be overly “theory based.” Bravo.
