Pete Lockett

This is probably the best site Ive found in a long while. I've been practicing for sometime now how to incorporate Indian rhythmic concepts into my playing, and having another browse on the net I found this stunning site by English percussionist Pete Lockett. There is a full page dedicated to various lessons, but the part that really stands out for me are the PDF's you can download on using Indian rhythmic concepts on the drum kit. This is surely a fantastic resource for any musician looking to expand their horizons. I will be coming back to this for some time.

Despite saying i wasn't going to post videos or clips of my music on this blog, I'm going to do so anyway. I'm feeling a little lazy to update my other page but hopefully I will do so soon. Here is a selection from gigs in the last year or so. The sound quality is not so great on some but i hope you enjoy them anyway. Comments are always most welcome:
