For drummers coming back

Your hands remember more than you think

Back behind the kit after years away? Find out where your time is today, get the grooves you used to love back under your hands at your own tempo, and practise in the fifteen minutes you actually have.

How rusty is your time? 30 seconds, sound on
A gentle dare

How rusty is your time?

Tap along, then the click goes quiet. Keep going. When it comes back, were you early, late or dead on? You may be closer than you fear.

Rock, pop, disco, a shuffle, a swing

Real recorded drums, every hit shown. Slow a groove down to whatever tempo your hands agree to today, switch the ghost notes off to hear what they were doing, then play it back on your kit. Turn it up a little next week.

Fifteen minutes that fit a full life

Work, kids, a commute: fifteen focused minutes beat an hour you never find. A routine lays them out, and you press Run.

Fifteen minutes that beat hours of noodling

Focused, structured practice takes you further than hours of playing what you already know.

Who made it

Built by a drummer, for practice that fits a life

Twenty years with a click in my ears, and this app is in almost every drum lesson I teach. What I want for every drummer who sits back down at the kit is the same: the freedom that arrives when time stops being something you count and starts being something you feel.

Mikas Emil Søndergaard, drummer and teacher

  • 20 yearswith a click in my ears
  • 30+private students I teach: drums, singing, production
  • 1,400+versions of the app since March 2026
Testimonials

In their own words

“For me, Timekeeper simply makes practice easier, more fun and more effective.”

I don't know of any other solution that brings these features together in the same way.
