Felix Pastorius PDFs, experience?

Hi there!

I recently stumbled over Mr Pastorius' site where he offers a number of PDF documents that focus on specific routines he uses during his his practice rsessions (triads, planing inside and outside the box, etc.).

These are NOT the books he published, the ones with the esoteric names (Hotdogs, Sclaes From Rhythm, etc.).

What I would like to ask: Has anyone any experience with these PDFs? I am interested in purchasing the first one, but there are no "teaser" pages, and I would be grateful for a little preview or your personal opinion.

Cheers, and thanks for your input in advance.

Bootrice
 
Have you tried it? I got the books at home and, even though they have great exercises, most of them aren't usable in many musical contexts. They seem more like music exploration, rather than instructional books. Let me know if you've tried one. If not, I'll probably purchase one and give you some feedback
