Practice makes more than perfect.

There’s a simple beauty to a metronome.

I keep an old one in my studio. It has the resonance of wood, an insistent, vibrant tone that draws me into the beat.

I have digital metronomes as well, but those volume controlled pops give me a beat. My metronome gives The Beat.

It’s always the same. It’s hypnotic. As soon as The Beat begins, so does my practice.
