“‘Message In A Bottle’ is one of the most famous tracks in The Police catalog, and Stewart Copeland’s drumming really brings it to life. He blends tight hi-hat work, ghost notes, and overdubs to create a drum part that’s instantly recognizable. What sets him apart is his mix of precision, creativity, and spontaneity – making him a huge inspiration for drummers around the world. His unique approach encourages you to break free from the usual patterns and explore new ideas.”
