Keep at it man! Good luck!

[Madnessofmusic]

[BOOM8883]

I subscribed for this, i wonder how gast your gonna get

[kindbeats]

@BOOM8883 Me too! lol

[SevenStringShredHead]

i'm sure this has been said already but it's pronounced hah-kay

[kindbeats]

@SevenStringShredHead lol damn, this guy's name has more pronunciations than Osama's did!

[bindoy]

Jojo Mayer should give it a try too =)

[rldjsegura]

good luck on trying to get it up to speed. can't wait to see how you get over the 120bpm hump. (just a guess as to when i think this technique might begin to fall apart). love to see people pushing forward

[kindbeats]

@rldjsegura I think the first part is only 115bpm. Not that it's going to be any easier!  :p

My God, Andy......just visited your website.....you've played with Bozzio? I'm sure this is the sort of challenge he'd be up for...probably while playing a double paradiddle with his left foot and a single paradiddle on the floor tom while soloing over the lot it 7/16 !

[kindbeats]

@drsteve0487 lmao! Yessir, playing with Bozzio was truly an honor.  Very cool and humble cat, not to mention a beast of a drummer!

[Madnessofmusic]

@kindbeats Good luck dude you're a brave man for trying. (tips hat)

[drsteve0487]

This is some crazy idea. I think you're going to cramp up something rotten with one foot. It's hard enough for most to keep going the full song with two. Re pronunciation - I thought it was pronounced Hawk (with maybe a very short 'i' sound on the end) - That's how fellow Swede Mattias Eklund from Toontrack pronounced it anyway!! He's certainly no hack anyway ! I see you've got an endorsement from Troy Wright in the comments. Praise indeed. Everyone should check out his Messhugah instrumedlies

[kindbeats]

@drsteve0487 Who knows if it can actually be done or not, but I'm going to pace myself and take it bit by bit. Each installment, I'll post how many hours I got to spend on it as well. Eventually, I'll be posting ideas that I come up with due to having taken this challenge on. :)

[ElectricTN]

Thats some dedication man, good luck on that one. Should be a hellofa challenge. Sofar so good man!

[TheDRUMaticGuy]

Props cuz I cant do heel toe and I have the tama speed cobra long boards.. I feel like I fail because of that.

[kindbeats]

@TheDRUMaticGuy I actually just started using the heel toe method a few months ago and I only use if for triples, so I'm still working on it as well. Just keep working at it and you'll get it. The only time someone fails is when they quit!

Very good start!

[TheModCon]

Finally someone sending me a video that is worth watching! Looking forward to seeing your progress in this!

[kindbeats]

@TheModCon Glad you dug the video and I'm happy you've decided to come along for the ride!

[danvanism]

nice

[generation1672]

Dude you messaged me about this and Im not disappointed one bit. Im excited to see your progress.

[shellsuitstrangler]

Mega good luck. If you nail this you could make some serious mula

[gulnare69]

Good luck man! D'ya reckon zach hill could do it? Right foot like an ox...

[kindbeats]

@gulnare69 Honestly, I'm not familiar at all with Zach Hill. I'll be sure to look him up though!

[Corpzmaker91]

I believe in you! :D

Any day now Haake will hear about this and dislike the vid

[kindbeats]

@Corpzmaker91 I think today was the day! 1 dislike. lmao

[hadninetails]

kudos on the try ! its insane ... much respect from a fellow drummer !

[thenameiwantedwasnta]

Haha, Most awesome thing I've ever come up with?

[kindbeats]

@thenameiwantedwasnta lmao! Thanks again for the inspiration my friend!

[thenameiwantedwasnta]

@kindbeats Haha shure, I'll gladly watch you progression :)

[dakoide]

Hammerax cymbals?

[kindbeats]

@dakoide Yessir!

[rayrayzz1]

what up....not a matel fan at all either but im with you for the challenge... not into double bass but i believe dennis chambers also has a sort of a mollar technique for the foot that can get great bpm's ive also been trying to master aswell. I like your ideas and im going to try and get some vids up on here aswell ..hopefully i can get some of those cool hammerax cymbals that i found out about from you ....cheers mate

[kindbeats]

@rayrayzz1 Hammerax is indeed awesome and I'm glad you're also up for the challenge!

[DrMorbid]

Ha! That's crazy. :)

Theoretically, by playing it one footed (haha) you could open and close hi-hat (or ideally a stack made of small chinas) together with the bendings that guitars are playing. That would be cool. ;)

[wrightdrums]

Good luck bro. The hardest part for me when playing this was the endurance of the opening pattern which at tempo - 115bpm lasts for about 50 seconds. The second phrase might be a little easier as the 32nd note additions occur slighter further apart. Let me know if you want the drum chart man and ill email it to you personally. Keep it up man. Troy

[kindbeats]

@wrightdrums Thanks so much man. The challenge is only for the first part so I don't need a chart but I really appreciate the offer and thanks for the support!

KINDBEATSDRUMS COM

[Lastshadow94]

@wrightdrums Isn't the whole song 16th notes at 115 with 32nd note bursts?

[kindbeats]

I'm psyched that so many of you guys are amped for this and it's great to have you all along for the ride!

[deathfacedrummerL]

Gonna give this a go. May take a while. What pedal are you using by the way?

[kindbeats]

@deathfacedrummerL I'm currently using an Axis short board single pedal.

KINDBEATSDRUMS COM

[deathfacedrummerL]

@kindbeats cool, how does it play? and cost wise?

[kindbeats]

@deathfacedrummerL I bought it off of a friend of mine so I'm not really sure of how much they go for in stores. As for the play of the pedal, I absolutely love it.

KINDBEATSDRUMS COM

[mrcanavan]

Definitely going to take this on. I've spent the last few years focussing heavily on fast single bass pedal work, so this would be a great challenge!

[777Arky777]

Props!!! Go for it - I'll try it myself.

[streetfast234]

Cool!

[xJMAN07x]

If you ever get this down you will be LEGENDARY.

[mattlikesdrumming]

once you finish with your right foot you should start over completely using your left foot. may take months, even a year but think about how much stronger your feet will be after.

[Oli4drums]

But wow dude, that's some freakin' good work!

[Oli4drums]

Tomas Haake. 'Har-key'

[kindbeats]

@Oli4drums Ah, I was wondering how he pronounced it. Thanks!

[BreanMate]

If you can do it before I see them live in April, I'll give you every single kind of love.

[slayerareawesome]

This is fucking insane!

[Pandanobear]

Haha. Yeah right. You're on your own for this one man.

[gregcdrums]

Good luck man, sounds like a really cool idea!

[joelchuy]

THATS AWSOME
