[MyFatherIsAKing1]

Words can't describe how awesome that was

[WayofLiving1]

Thank you all of you! And I mean it.

Coming back here to remind me my old drums solo was good, especially because of comments from almost all of you.

That's another reason why I want to make a new channel with nice sound... not some... microphone inside the camera lol.

[WayofLiving1]

I will, soon, make another channel, sorry for the delay. But I will come back here to inform all the people who want to see some new free style solo and some Tommy Igoe funky tracks too.

For some reason, I just can't get into my channel anymore. So it is the time for a brand new channel with my real name and I will try to get professional sound with microphones, that's the next move.

[Biggeddy23]

@Iamnotafurry... good point I agree 100%...and hell of some drumming skills u have

[crooky3000]

This is amazzinnggg! Im jealous :(

[Iamnotafurry]

Finally someone who isn't a douche bag dummer who does something besides that stupid jazzy hip hop beat with an occasional roll. This was FUCKING EPIC MAN!

[WayofLiving1]

[jellitunes]

You're fantastic

[stijnhelsen]

This sounds super! You've really got your double strokes down.

[kaemon111]

Great, what kind of cymbals are these (I suppose Sabian, but which type).

[jaymoney1996]

nice set

[TheOrangeJuice69]

How do you do your fills? like the ones at 0:45, and from 0:56? RLRLKK rolls?

[WayofLiving1]

@TheOrangeJuice69 Hi, sorry 9 month before the answer came. For some reasons, I can't get on my account anymore so I must do a total new channel very soon. The first fill you are talking about start with single stroke roll 16th note triplets with the transition to 2 hands 2 foot, it goes like this RLRLRL / RLRLRL / RLFFRL / FFRLFF / Snare + O-zone at the end. In the video.

I also do something before the fills itself, starting on the (R)Crash + (F)Bass drum.

R+F LLRLL / Fills

[WayofLiving1]

@TheOrangeJuice69 The fills at 0:56 is a huge Mike Portnoy influence and also from one of my friend, Anthony Trujillo. It is always fun to practice and to play in a live situation, it's easy to do.

RLRLFF RLRLRLFF RLFF (4-4-2 this is what I'm thinking when I'm playing it)

some more

RLFF RLFF RLRLFF (2-2-4)

even more...

RLRLRLFF RLFF RLRLRLFF RLFF (6-2-6-2)

[Mechanamer16]

Hey This is good I cant really do songs but free styling well help u get your rhythm

[Chrls5]

I do accept it sounds cool, but there's no doubt black people knows the real deal with drums!!

[Timberfaces]

Wow this is amazing. I'm not really so good, but i'm trying. typing this on youtube: Freestyle Drumming by Tim Meijerink

[oopsforgotmyusername]

Can you give me some specs on your kit? You snare is....perfect

[WayofLiving1]

@oopsforgotmyusername This drums is my Yamaha Maple Custom 10-12-14-16, bass drum 22x16, I like Dave Weckl so now you know where the influence came from. This snare is the Joey Jordison signature with Pearl 13x6.5, ambassador drum head.

This kit is at least 12 years old actually but I still use it on each gig, I like it a lot, so much that I don't feel I have to buy another drums. But I will soon or later. Something like... White Tama with silver stripes, very tempting...

[slipknot938337338]

fuck that kit sounds perfect

[kkeillor2]

First video I ever cared to rate on YouTube. Five stars man! I just started about six months ago and You give me lots of inspiration! Btw, don't worry about the jealous little haters talkin about you edited it. I think it was sick!

[DruMmMeuR]

@IceHot423 @thebeastly247 I didn't add any effects or edited anything, its only me the camera and the microphone inside... thats it thats all

[davehayes2204]

[drumlover2410]

[Hasteinme914]

D00d, your kit sounds so good!

[drumsisc00l]

im sorry but i really have no respect for double bass players. i think it honestly takes no skill to use one.

[Hasteinme914]

You sir, are a moron.

[gregdewald]

@drumsisc00l wow you must not no shit about druming then. double bass just opens up a new level and variety to drumming

[RDubya146]

then don't look at his left foot. this guy fucking rocks.

[ballinbrandon2008]

aww how cute someone is jealous he cant play doubles lol :(

[iwazused]

@drumsisc00l

ok if all you do is 4/4 breakdowns with double bass then its stupid

check out tomas pridgen or tony royster to see double bass in full use.

[mein666teil]

How do you do those sick fills in 1:00?

[mrsmithicus]

im a grade 6 drummer and i think dat is absolutely amazing!!!

gd double bass.

ive got one of them

[316believer316]

u deserve more views

[pimpjuice8921573]

okay super noob question! im very new at drums and everything but ive practiced on a practice pad for a long time. to do that type of roll you did on the snare. do you have to move your wrist for everysingle hit or let the stick bounce every hit? let me know please!

[CastingStonez]

Some people throw TRAVIS BARKER on BEST or OF ALL TIME drummer lists...

I dont agree with ANY of them...

But, i will say this...

This guy is better than TRAVIS BARKER...

[balinStud]

@CastingStonez best drummers IN MY OPINION are Aaron Gillespie from Underoath and the guy from The Who

[luvetohate]

im not sure but it sounds like uv been influenced by joey jordison from slipknot. plus i saw u got a cover of duality so im guessing im right. NICE!

[dramabeats411]

DDDAAAAAAAAMMMMMMMMNNN!!!!! Dude that was beast as shit!!!

[Da3RdStReEtOwNsSvR09]

[ojmar1]

My jaw hurts it hit the floor so hard.

[hondavid99]

[EvilJared88]

[luckygoof]

[MRSAKIC19]

The NEXT Travis Barker ;)

[ajcrocksguitarhero]

no I am

[staples1040]

no! he's 3000 times better than travis barker, travis doesnt even know how to drum, he is only stylish.

[rockastone24]

wow man u got amazing skills u could even make a good band

[YaGiMaStaZ69]

Great 5

[poopypooface6969]

your seriously amazing!

[polopolopolopolo947]

fucking shit ur good!!

[heroofdrums13]

seriously i played today and my improv was like this exept for 1:00 to 1:09 because im not that good XD but you have the same style than me but your a god

[skullsoldier59]

awesome dude brilliant!

[ilovewombles]

brilliant

[devildriver676]

Very creative and very smooth. I absolutely LOVE the sound of your snare because its tight and it gives your buzz rolls voice and duration. My snare is way too fast. I like it tight, but yours has a combination of both. Your hands are very fast and your single strokes are the same volume and on beat all the time. The only thing I really want to see you do is a staccato 16th note bass drum roll. I just like to see other drummers do it because its fun to watch.

btw, What kind of pedals do you use?

[crazyawesome68]

where did you learn to play?

[eatsleepskate606]

you make me want to quit.... you are so good..... drum on!

[tommytmt]

yep...that's exactly what was going through my mind as well...

[ausydownhilling]

dude that was soo good at one bit u were soo fast your hands started to blur

[NJM896]

dude holy fuck that is the shit great job bro!!

[Yev300]

You're a god!!

[DarkCrusader7]

[SlipKnotmaggot013]

[baller699696]

[Allonby1993]

Sabian Ozone Crash i think

[superstitio]

thanks

[Crystalization93]

nice set up dude!!

love the nice clean tight sound

[oopsforgotmyusername]

what heads do you use?

[pedrerva]

Fuck you! Very good video dude!

[DeadlyPoison999]

what snare do you have? it sounds awesome btw great cover man!

[FullySickDrummer]

it looks like a joey jordison snare and sounds like one too??

[BiNKYBOOBAYBEE]

WOW..THiS iS REALLY GOOD..!

[bestdrmr]

That... was awesome!! dude you are insane

[GGCDproductions]

lol you like bouncing on that stool dont you. anyways you rock dude and that looked insanely hard

[lIlIIlIllIllIl]

Ok... I've never played drums before and I barely watch but on 0:07 - 0:15 is it always sounding faster than it looks?

[drhbettathanu]

he is bouncing the stick a lot, it is called a roll

[drumfreakzattack]

guys, look after " gabor tokar " , i think, you're gonna' enjoy his style :)

[thanislankan]

he sucks.

[FullySickDrummer]

ya mum sucks me

[DupBror]

That was both creative, great and fast at the same time. A thing many drummers (especially "famous" band drummers) cant combine. At lest in my opinion. Great work!

[drummberboy928]

more double base :)

[jmooredrums]

dude that was totally sick! you fucking rock

[takeshijames23]

[fr4nkenstien]

Jeezus that SUCKED! Such garbage...

Nah haha im just fuckin kiddin, ya jammed out wit yo clam out. That was tight, very tight. Nice symbol work. Nice quality in the kit as well, sound is surprisingly well being the fact its on youtube.

[mykie4eva]
