The minus drums play-along tracks of these incredible drum battles are now available from iTunes and Hudson Digital. You can opt for individual downloads as well as a complete package that includes a full set of the audio files and printable transcriptions required to master all eighteen challenging drum parts that make up the nine duets.

In addition to the \'Rhythmic Conversations\' cd, the full package features Arrival, an 80-minute audio cd with new music and complete performances of the drum duets by the original artists, plus a 3-hour and 20-minute dvd in which Miller teaches the musical and technical principles used in the double drumset and full band compositions.
