What you get
Every scale, every exercise, every great recording is one search away. What's harder to find is someone who hears how you play.
Listening works both ways. You and Jacob stay in conversation. Your recordings, your questions, their insights, your practice shaped around where you actually are.
Not a course with Jacob's face on it. Jacob.
In Jacob's words
Jacob teaches drums by helping you understand why something feels good, why a groove works, and what great drummers are actually listening for. His feedback goes beyond “play this beat” or “fix this fill.” He helps students hear time differently, notice tension they didn’t realize they had, and make more musical decisions behind the kit. A Montreal-based drummer, author, and creator with a large online following, Jacob brings a wide musical perspective shaped by jazz, rock, and pop, but his real strength is translating those ideas into clear, personal insight. On Metempo, you’re not just getting assignments or exercises. You’re getting an ongoing back-and-forth with a drummer who listens closely and gives you the kind of observations that can completely change the way you play.
See it in practice
Real moments with real students Jacob works with on metempo. Not polished tutorials. Not generic advice. A look at the back-and-forth that makes practice move forward.
Shared with student permission.
How it works
metempo keeps the musical conversation going, even when you're practicing alone. Share what you're working on, ask what you're wondering, and let Jacob shape the next step around you.
A question. A rough take. A passage that keeps falling apart. A goal you don't know how to reach yet. metempo gives all of that somewhere to go.
You get focused practice, feedback, ideas, and next steps shaped around what you sent. Not a fixed syllabus everyone else receives too.
You can return with questions, updates, recordings, or stuck moments whenever they come up. No need to save everything for a weekly lesson.
Every exchange becomes part of the record: what you tried, what changed, what clicked, and where Jacob guided you next. Over time, you stop losing track of where you've been and what's finally starting to click.
Practice feels different when there's someone on the other side.
Your practice, with someone in it. Recordings, questions, feedback, and focused work, on your own time.
