Joost Visser

Joost Visser is a Dutch drummer, author, and music educator born in 1980 in the eastern part of the Netherlands.2 He began his musical journey as a snare drummer in a local drum band at the age of 7.2 Visser studied drums at ArtEZ Conservatory in Zwolle, Netherlands.3

In June 2017, Visser released his main two drum books: the "book of beats" and the "book of fills".1 These books form the core of his comprehensive drum method called "360DRUMSbook," which is designed to help drummers master their craft from beginner to advanced levels.1 The method focuses on three main skills: playing along with musicians, playing beats, and playing fills.1

Key features of the 360DRUMSbook include:

1. Two separate books (beats and fills) designed to be used in combination1
2. Accompanying play-along audio tracks at various tempos1
3. Instructions in both English and Dutch1
4. QR codes on each page linking to supportive video material (added in December 2020)1

Visser continues to promote and develop his drum method through various channels:

• He maintains a YouTube channel with instructional videos related to the 360DRUMSbook6
• He hosts a podcast called "360DRUMSbook" where he demonstrates how to use the books for students or self-study4
• His books are available for purchase through his website, joost-visser.nl producties5

In addition to his work as a drum educator, Visser is also known as a singer/songwriter in the European lo-fi scene.7
