But I checked out lots of great new music released over the past 12 months. Here's 12 great drum performances from 2015. Tight syncopated grooves, linear electro tracks, jazzy improvisational pieces... Put on some headphones and play along with these tracks.

"Tell Them You Can't Leave"---The Amazing
Moussa Fadera, drums
Not your typical backbeat, but very groovy. It feels like a modern take on a James Brown groove. A quick 5 stroke roll leads off the fill to bring the band in.

"Sad Case"---El Vy
A straight ahead 7/8 groove, with a very cool open hi hat “bark” at the end of the phrase. Counting through the chorus and build can be a little tricky, but it appears to stay in 7/8.
