Getting back to our Rhythm Roots

Mapex are reaching out to drummers with their new RHYTHM ROOTS programme.

RHYTHM ROOTS is our quest to bring into the spotlight the next generation of great, individual drumming talent via the internet. It’s SO simple! Every month, we will select and post the top five favourite videos that are submitted to mapex.co.uk. Simply email your video link to info@mapex.co.uk and each month we will upload our favourites.

This is your chance to showcase your style and flair to the world, whatever and however you play, Mapex wants to see and hear the style diversity of the drumming public while at the same time giving the opportunity to all drummers to be heard by the world’s music community.

Send us your video link with a description of yourself, your influences and your interests and we will contact you if we plan to post your video. The footage can be a live performance with your band or short solo on the drum set. On the site this month we get the ball rolling with Joe Clancy on his impressive Orion set up, click HERE to check it out





The world’s greatest drummers all shine with individuality. Their personality breaks through the boundaries of the drum set. That’s why today, drummers from yesteryear are emulated and imitated but never replicated.

 We are here to find the drummers of tomorrow.
