I canât take Whiplash seriously because the premise is flawed; you donât get good as a jazz drummer by becoming a human metronome. The whole thing has a cartoon model of musical excellence. Maybe it shouldâve been a movie about sports instead https://t.co/u8AGnmmJuW

if youâre actually serious about becoming successful, study actual success stories. Miles Davis was someone who reliably developed musical genius in the players who played with him. He donât have to treat them like shit to do it https://t.co/d4MiHAbbjG

@__drewface (audio is weird bc Iâve sped it up 1.4x) Miles Davis was great at challenging and supporting young creative talents to perform at the edge of their abilities, and beyond Miles Davis: Birth of the Cool, ~1:15:00 https://t.co/25kxwa1M4d

the vibes of an excellent music teacher who makes everyone who plays with him better https://t.co/yShIMhnyUi


cracking up at this drum lesson by Nate Smith (the 80/20 drummer) where he's trying to demonstrate to you how beginners are sloppy and make mistakes â but because he's so good at what he does, his deliberate mistakes are actually delicious and musical đ https://t.co/r7UhM1973J
