Björk - National Theatre, Reykjavík (full concert - pro-shot) (1999) drums backing track
Built for players who want to hear the groove more clearly and get to practice without detours.
About this version
Some drum parts make sense on paper and still feel odd under your hands. This version is for closing that gap a bit faster.
Useful for
working on groove and feel
Useful for
cleaning up fills and transitions
Useful for
repeating the section before the section that usually goes wrong
A simple way in
A version for hearing the groove, fills, and transitions more clearly while keeping the shape of the original song intact.
Start with the tricky section, not the whole song. A few good repetitions usually tell you more than one rushed pass from top to bottom.
Once it feels settled, go back to the full arrangement and check whether it still holds together. That is usually where the real answer is.
Notes
Björk's full set from the National Theatre, Reykjavík, on 6 January 1999. If you like this, support Björk by seeing her live, buying her official live and studio recordings, and visiting bjork.com. This is for nonprofit, educational purposes only. I don't own the copyright. This was originally shown on Icelandic television. All tracks from this set are already on YouTube, but I thought it would be a treat to have the entire set as a single video. Thanks to BjörkFTP for the recording, which is also available on dimeadozen.org as 'No Place Like Home'.
