@ImaFez tap your foot theres always a constant pulse, most of it is in 4/4, listening will get ur ear trained better to hear it and therefore play it, it will feel more akwarward trying to read sheet music, once u get basic pattern look at sheet to make sure its right, check out my page....
@dazeinband i think it depends on perosnal preference. i find reading sheet music a lot easier then learning by ear, and ur are mistakenly claiming this song is in 4/4 where in facts interchanges between 10/8, 11/8, 12/8, 16/8 and i think either 21 or 22/8
@ImaFez Dude I'm pretty sure up until the 2 minute mark, it's all in 4/4. Count the entire drum part in 4 and it will all make sense. Then after that count it all in 5/4 and it will all make sense.
Even though I'm gonna get bitched at for saying this, at the time of the video, Navene was either not the drummer, or had not been the drummer for very long - also, Misha programmed the drums that are heard on the album if I'm not mistaken, so its kinda like a cover and people playing programmed drums are liable to make mistakes; however, I think Navene is sick and I couldn't notice any mistakes =D No insults meant here, just putting it into perspective the time period for those who don't know
@j7j2mackey92 Youre right, he didnt drum on their first album, that was all programmed, he covered this and added his own style to it. He did drum on their second album though :)
@j7j2mackey92 Also, he sent this video in to Tosin as his audition. I read it in Modern Drummer. There's a whole article on Navene in the January 2012 edition.
@breakinknucklesruler Good question. It's probably cheaper, and to be honest I had no idea until I read an article about Navene in Modern Drummer. This video is pretty much how he landed the gig playing with AAL.
@mateo767 In his interview with Modern Drummer, Navene said that about 60% of the drums on Weightless were programmed, and about 40% were done with the same samples triggered with an e-kit.
This is so much better, so much more tasteful than how you play it now, Navene. Today you butcher the groove with death metal fills all over the place.
@amjan you mean he spices it up so he actually has fun when playing shows and not just being a computer who replays it exactly. come on man have you ever played drums at a live show?
So tired with the infatuation of Periphery and Misha. If he did in fact program the drums (which I seriously doubt), it's absolutely NOTHING in comparison to sitting here actually playing it. Go listen to Periphery/Messugah you fucking fags.
@IntoTheEternity Why the hate? Just letting people know. I think Navene is amazing though. And AAL is friends with Periphery and are influenced by many people. So relax o.o
For anyone to says this is lackluster, your an idiot. Ive seen him play this live and weather its executed perfectly or not, its fantastically creative drumming on a small set
@LeBronze7 By "timing" you mean time signature? It changes throughout the song. It starts off in 4/4 throughout the intro. But then somewhere before 2:00 it does a different patter: it's in groups of 3 measures of 4/4, 4/4, and 3/4. Starting at 2:00 in this video it changes to 5/4.
@markksamsonov No, there's a ton of improvisation. He's just doing whatever he wants with the song. It's not how the actual drums in the song go. Usually the bass drum parts are kept similar, and the type of cymbal he hits, but the snare hits and the fills are much different than the original drum part for this song. His playing in this video gives it a "live" feel.
Hey Navene. It's time for a real drumset kid.This shit you're playing in here is small and faggoty.. And ugly as fuck too. While we're at it. Let me show you how to sound good..
@TheCompulsionToKill yeah he's the drummer in that Navene band mess.. Will you tell him to get a real snare drum and bigger real drumset that isn't ugly? No one else will do it for me..
@jadrummer110 haha I'm sorry. At which part do you hear a fake snare drum? And no one else gives a fuck about what his drum-set looks like because he can play the shit out of it.
@Currylarson That toy snare sounds like Orville Redenbacher popping a small bag of popcorn. Fail. No thunder here. get bigger drums, bigger sticks bigger arms and more skilled player. Like me.
@jadrummer110 Sorry your view of playing drums is so extremely childish. Unfortunately you don't know that you don't need big sticks and big arms to use good technique and hit the drums hard. You don't know the physics of drum stick size either, an how bigger and longer sticks make you play slower--which means it would would be very inefficient for Navene to use big sticks for this fast-paced song. (Especially for those crazy ghost notes. Can you image doing that with sticks bigger than 5B's?)
@jadrummer110 The only thing that is clear to me is that you have a different preference for they way your drums sound. It is also clear to me that he needs not change anything about his drums due to the fact that he is in a successful band. Maybe you should consider smaller drums, smaller arms, and... less skill i guess, so that you may get discovered, and graduate from bragging about yourself on youtube. You seem like a fuckin douche bag though so that probably wont happen.....
@jadrummer110 Upload a video and we'll compare you and Navene to see who's better. I'm not saying I don't believe you but I want to see your drumming skills.
I just want to add that I like the way Navene plays this song a lot cooler than how it was done by the guy who mixed it on the drum track for the album. The album version is bad ass too, but Mr Koperweis here adds some really cool elements to it. Like the ride deal during the guitar bridge and from about 31 seconds in to the vid he changes up the little breakdown just a little but it adds a lot to it. I didn't even notice until after I watched this vid a billion times then listened to the album.
@pearldrums92 You fuckin put him in his place man! i cant stand it when people even mention someone like Travis Barker in the same conversation as Navene, Matt, and Orbin. Periphery and AAL have, in my opinion, the best technical drummers in music today they are leagues ahead in terms of skill and technique. Barker can go fuck himself
@pearldrums92 Now why would you wish that on Travis Barker? He's a good drummer. I have respect for all drummers of all genres because each and everyone of them practiced till they had gotten good enough to be where they are now. They live and breath drumming everyday!
i have some tips for those wanting to learn odd meters. get a white board and make a series of lines, like a row of 9 lines if you want to play 9 beat time. all in one color, all same length. that's your ride. get a second color and replace a few of the lines with that color for accents (crashes), and begin adding some shorter ones in between that might represent a snare, for example. try as many combinations in that time sig as you can find...
@thisguyisaninja travis barker is an average punk drummer with famous man capabilities because he is sold out and his mainstream punk music appeals to a mindless following who hears high bpm and they think the music is good. don't ever even think of comparing a navene koperweis, or travis orbin, or a matt hallpern to travis fucking barker, he should have died in that plane crash, gtfo off of this video. gg no re
@rollinfever15 best way to learn odd time; listen to lots of odd time music, it begins to sound natural after a while. Unfortunately this song is more than just odd time it's, odd time with tons of polyrhythms and random awkward (in the best way) changes. Songs like these are usually programmed first and then the drummer just learns the part by ear over time.
@rollinfever15 im no Navene but what i found helpful is just singing the groove and feeling it at first rather than counting it, when i counted it it sounded like a random mess but when i sing the grooves a feel them as i play it helps me relate it to 4/4 a lot easier and helps with figuring them out
@rollinfever15 Don't get me wrong Navene is an AWESOME and I mean AWESOME drummer :)
but Misha Mansoor actually programmed the drums for AAL on both self-titled and "Weightless"
The way that I come up with odd time signatures is really just from the heart. Listen to lots of music that will throw you off like AAL, VoM, ATB, Messhugah etc. that'll help :)
@adrianxinx210 misha didn't programmed the drums in weightless, only electronic drum parts. the other parts where recorded directly by Navene, watch the recording session video
I was always caught up in listening to Tosin, wasn't until I saw this video that I realized the insane amount of time put into the drums tracks for the album... Truly amazing.
you look like AngryTestie

This torpid, tepid, tintinnabulation takes triteness, triviality to towering, teetering terminals. 'Tis trash. Tico Torres triumphs, trouncing Tosin's tiresome tambourinist, transcending this tedious, trebly timbre.

You should try Gary Chester's New Breed and Rhythmic Horizons by Gavin Harrison. Very helpful exercises and great books to just switch up with.

@rollinfever15 best way to learn odd time; listen to lots of odd time music, it begins to sound natural after a while. Unfortunately this song is more than just odd time it's, odd time with tons of polyrhythms and random awkward (in the best way) changes. Songs like these are usually programmed first and then the drummer just learns the part by ear over time.

@rollinfever15 im no Navene but what i found helpful is just singing the groove and feeling it at first rather than counting it, when i counted it it sounded like a random mess but when i sing the grooves a feel them as i play it helps me relate it to 4/4 a lot easier and helps with figuring them out

@rollinfever15 Don't get me wrong Navene is an AWESOME and I mean AWESOME drummer :)
but Misha Mansoor actually programmed the drums for AAL on both self-titled and "Weightless"
The way that I come up with odd time signatures is really just from the heart. Listen to lots of music that will throw you off like AAL, VoM, ATB, Messhugah etc. that'll help :)

@adrianxinx210 misha didn't programmed the drums in weightless, only electronic drum parts. the other parts where recorded directly by Navene, watch the recording session video

@adrianxinx210 Ok, I don't know where you got your info, but Misha did not program the drum parts on Weightless.

@inimicalODDITY But my grandma told me that Misha did :p
Yeah, I know he didn't do Weightless. Weightless is, essentially: Their First album as a band.

Just looking at the snare, I think it's a 14x4 10 ply dw collectors series. It looks identical to mine minus the black hardware.

I was always caught up in listening to Tosin, wasn't until I saw this video that I realized the insane amount of time put into the drums tracks for the album... Truly amazing.
