  What does it actually take to become a great drummer? 
  Not just faster hands. Not better coordination. Not another technical breakthrough. 
  But a stronger mind behind the kit. 
  Locked In: The Drummer’s Mental Game is a deep, honest exploration of what really shapes great drumming when no one is talking about technique. Written and read by Dave Golder, this audiobook takes you inside the quieter side of musicianship—the part that happens in your attention, your decision-making, and your relationship with time itself. 
  Across twenty immersive chapters, you’ll discover why drummers rush under pressure, how ego creeps into fills you didn’t mean to play, why “doing less” can make you sound better, and how true groove is built far more in the mind than in the hands. From locking in with a bass player to understanding space, flow state, repetition, and performance mindset, this is a guide to the internal game that every drummer plays—whether they realise it or not. 
  This is not a book about showing off behind the kit. 
  It’s about what happens when you stop trying to prove anything… and start actually listening. 
  Calm, practical, and deeply reflective, Locked In will change the way you think about time, feel, and control—one beat at a time.

  Frankie's Flyer

  An aspiration of self-fulfilment and defiance takes flight when Peter Reed, a newly qualified teacher with top honours from the renowned University of Stellenbosch, arrives in the rural town of Somerset East, South Africa.
  
  At the celebrated Gill College High School, Peter brings a vision inspired by the enduring wisdom of Confucius and Aristotle and the modern insights of Howard Gardner's theory of multiple intelligences.
  
  Determined to challenge the narrow labels assigned to his special class students, Peter teaches by an irrefutable principle: "I hear, I forget. I see; I remember. I do; I understand." Through hands-on learning and a belief in every student's unique potential, he breathes new life into children labelled as "mentally retarded".
  
  But in a school steeped in enduring tradition, Peter's radical innovative teaching methods spark fierce resistance from Dr Hawkins, a principal with secrets of his own.
  
  As Peter battles prejudice, narrow-mindedness, and a failing system, his students begin to defy every expectation, led by Frankie, an orphan Indian boy with a dream of building and flying his own glider.
  
  Years later, fate delivers a cruel irony: Peter, now broken by time and circumstance, is reduced to menial labour in a multi-million-rand business owned by his former students.
  
  As he toils in the shadows of their success, a familiar voice calls his name. Rochelle, a former student, now an accomplished medical doctor, echoes his own words back to him: "A good teacher is like a candle — it consumes itself to light the way for others."
