Your approach to independence may be constricting your freedom of expression in your Jazz drumming and any other styles you may play. John Hvasta has a radically different approach to Independence, specifically for Jazz drummers, meant to help you develop your own unique sound rather than endlessly trying to learn independence exercises that may inadvertently hammer someone else's sound into your playing. He calls this approach The Four Spirits, and in this video he first demonstrates it in a solo and then offers a lesson on the technique as applied to independence between your hands. Then he shares his philosophy behind the development of The Four Spirits and why this approach is so key to being certain you sound like you rather than imitating others.
