Metric Modulation for the Drum Set

Here is a long requested video on Metric Modulation which is a rhythmic device that is used to make a smooth transition from one tempo to another.
Metric modulation takes a note value from a primary tempo and transitions that note value into a new tempo . This could be poly-rhythmic note values like 1/4 note triplets or even dotted notes from the original tempo. You can do cycles of many modulations in a row and eventually come back to the original tempo. I cover several types of basic modulations in this video and show you how to apply them on the drum set.
