  • man, dave matthews band would suck ass if it wasn't for this guy

  • @tonificador you suck look up dave and tim videos

  • is it me or dont he look like dennis chambers when he had his curl back in the 80's his hi hats r second to none

  • uh uh uh my high hat approach....my hi hat approach uh nuh uh

  • I think he needs to rethink his top sizes :)

  • i can feel my brain burning

  • 3:17

    I'm

    Always shit like that

    I love this guy

  • I ain't no drummer but damn his playing is so calm and collected

  • CB is a totally overrated drummer IMHO!!!

  • @flamesky5020 u have to be totally fucked up...

  • Comment removed

  • @flamesky5020 Really?! I'd love to see you get behind your kit and play as fluently or with as much technique or aplomb as he does. You seem to forget that, though he plays with DMB, he is a high regarded drummer. His feel, time, groove & technique are on par with legends like Vinnie Colaiuta or Dave Weckl. Learn to actual listen or simply fall of the edge of the little world you live in. Instead, critique Travis Barker -a genuine crummy drummer... fool.

  • @ juanbarros88 yes neil is overrated but your out of your fucking mind if you say carter beauford is overrated lol Do you know why you never see bands cove Dave Matthews? Carter Beauford is the answer to the question and your about to find out why. Youtube search " dmb two step mile high" music is not a competition but damn say travis barker is overrated. but not the man that is the glue to the number 1 act in america.

  • not that all jazz drummers are better than rock drummers. Virgil donati is a rock drummer and to me he's the most skilled, knowledgeable drummer I've heard. I dont like him than much, but he's that good. but i admit Carter is very unique. I like Carter. Michael Brecker is more skilled than Kenny G, that's not sujective, it' a fact, but Kenny G has more fans and money. and to his fans he is better, and that's where taste decides who's better, that's where subjectivity comes in.

  • there are a lot more drummers at another level. Most Rock drummers are overrated. most known drummers are overrated including Carter. they are good but there are a bunch of unknown drummers more capable than Carter and Neil. music is subjective, so one might like a rock drummer more than a jazz drummer, even when the jazz drummer is more skilled(that aspect is not subjective, unless they are at the same level).

  • @juanbarros88 stop saying 'subjective' fag-boy, you're an unintelligent mexican and everyone reading your posts can agree. i can guarentee you couldn't list off one person who is more skilled than Carter Beauford on the drums.

  • can anyone tell me for sure what model hats he is using here? I'm assuming 13''...

  • I think he meant "-and likewise-", not "-and vice versa"...

  • Carter is so modest, he hated doing this dvd and almost didn't do it

  • @camair2112 Neil is very talented I will give you that but Carter is extremely versatile and if you have heard all of DMB music Carter has no problem playing any kind of metal, jazz, and funk. Carter knows what creativity is, Neil doesnt really create like Carter does, Neil sounds like alot of other rock.

  • @soundmind529 honestly carter shows how versatile he is in all of Dave Matthews songs he can play metal, funk, jazz, I really truely see that Neil Peart is more overrated his biggest thing is triplet fills . I believe Carter knows the true meaning of Creativity

  • you are so respectful to the spirit of song and yet never, ever, boring. this is how a drummer should show off. Dave's music is not my favorite, but i buy every album to see what you do next.

  • Comment removed

  • He's the most underrated drummer ever!!

  • I wish his talking was as smooth as his drumming...

  • @LaughingOutKraut why so he can whisper poems in your ear as he butt-seks' u?

  • @LaughingOutKraut Sometimes it's just hard for musicians to put their talent into words lol

  • i think he just completely changed how im gonna play my high hats lol

  • when he plays he looks so relaxed. but yet hes playing some crazy busy shit. hes a beast

  • I think he has two of the same splash cymbals . Awesome tho fav drummer for sure.

  • Allright, i know wich dvd to buy next :)

  • iQ.. is he a cyclist?

  • @DKproductions2  Hahaha lol hahah

  • I agree with arguing against people who bash Carter, but try not to get too worked up. Appreciating it takes noticing more subtle and sophisticated things about music in general, which someone essentially has to do for themselves. If someone doesn't want to listen closely, they won't.

  • What a monster.

  • Amazing drummer!

  • fantasic contribution.........could not have had a better influence........i wish more people knew who he is .....

  • The man's a genius. 

  • 200,00 views EVEN!!!

  • Carter Rides with his left hand......... hes open handed and tight reminds me a little of billy Cobham

  • amazing! Always so fun to watch! He's a whole band in himself, always a delight.

  • 10 people obviously thought the dislike button said awesome and stuff.. please just make me feel important and give this a thumbs up.

  • i wonder if he still counts measures or is so good at it that he can just do it by feel.

  • Probably the best zildjian cymbals i've heard before. Not to trashy, ringy, or over toned like a lot of zildjian cymbals

  • MASSA DEMAIS CARA!!! VC É O CARA MESMO!

  • I love listening to musicians try to talk about their music.. it always fails miserably. Love you Carter Beauford! We understand what you were talking about!

  • i own those hi hats and this video makes me ashamed to play them

  • he sounds like such a gentleman.

  • I said it before and I'll say it again: Delicious.

  • guy's a beast

  • really one of my favorite drummers. he's wearing a biking jersey haha

  • Just amazing. This dude is such a stud.

    It looks weird to set the kit up righty but play it lefty.

  • he has a style all his own so unique very articulate he is fantastic best funk drummer on the planet he sits right and leads left but I think he is doing that so he is in his wheelhouse so to speak he gets around the kit in his own way,,, he is orthadox but then again he isn't.... freaking brilliant!!!!!!

  • TOO GOOD. I don't think too many can hold a candle to him. Especially his style. Very masterfull and methodic. He's very almost the mathematician of drummers

  • @spookypunky Check out drummer of Karnivool Steve Judd, he's up to this game.

  • hes a lefty right?

  • @AAaudio710 not quite, Carter’s ambidextrous drumming came about as an accident: As a child he set his drums in front of a mirror to watch himself play, and reversed his setup so the mirror image appeared as the right-handed drummers he was used to watching....crazy guy

  • is it true that his hi hats are made of unobtainium?

  • @drum6banger ...no.. he uses a custom projection hats and the mastersound..

  • @thebadjay ...lol

  • @drum6banger nice "The Core" reference

  • @drum6banger no there made of howthefuckdidhedothatanium

  • @drum6banger what the heck is that?

  • @gshdrums pff ^^this guy

  • @drum6banger wtf?

  • @gshdrums CMON SON!

  • hats are so tight...like you moms pussy

  • What hats are those. Oh my God.

  • i like wat he said i never tryed it be 4

  • i wondered why i could never play satellite....

  • is this real?

  • I love this guy!!!

  • 5:44 u c him hit 2 different splash's but they both sound the same :S but on another note ive jus learnt a bundle! carter beauford is a beast

  • its funny because even the best drummers in the world find it hard to explain the methods to mastering the drums, just goes to show how complex it is an how this guy and other like him (pro drummers) must have a natural feel/talent for it

  • Not only is Carter a true artist in the drums, but it looks like 10 people don't own a drum set.

  • this guy is awesome... but that shirt is silly as shit. haha

  • @FalcorsPhallus hahahaha ya you right man lmfao!!!

  • anybody please the song at 5:09 ???

  • @larsyulia satellite from the album under the table and dreaming

  • Lebron, listen to the smart man, self analyze. There is NO SUCH THING as best or better. Have you not learnt that yet, if not through own experience how many times are other people going to have to say it to you before you consider it as a valid perception of music. There is no such thing as best or better.

  • Carter rocks! :)

  • i bought those promark sticks. loved them, played with them, then contemplated returning them claiming that they didnt make me carter

  • 2:30, a good way to to to

  • why is this the first time ive seen a drummer playing the hat with the left hand in a standard setup? maybe i would drop less sticks if i didnt cross my arms? but really more than anything this is like a description of how to play boring pop beats and not get too bored playing them. that said, reserved drummers are rare and thats why theyre the ones making the money. unless were talking metal....

  • @singingfeces billy cobham, john blackwell, thomas pridgen are a few other lefties that play right handed kits.

  • man that guy is slick on the drums!, can't wait for the day I can drum like that

  • Terrible talker, amazing drummer. 

  • those cymbals don't really match his style. i actually remember in the mid or late 90's he actually used zildjian edge series... i saw him use that god damn 14" max hat high hat on concert footage! yuck!!!

  • Hey guys... Jesus is back...

  • Fantastic drummer.

    Interesting: He holds the sticks so close to the bottom.

  • A GOOD EXAMPLE OF THIS HIHAT WORK ON 1979 FROM SMASHING PUMPKINS...

  • Niel Peart is good, but DUMBASSES on youtube overrate him ! Stop mentioning Niel on every freakin drum video, he is BY FAR the best.

  • @HSteadyDrummer

    .... is that what you meant to say?

  • @HSteadyDrummer atleast theyre not bringing up Travis Barker or Joey Jordinson

  • Carter is a Drum Stud! I can listen to that guy play allll day long.

    Most here will already know, but someone commented about other's... Dave Weckl. If you haven't seen him... he's another drum monster with that extra gene that set's him apart, like Carter.

  • Carter is a drum Stud period. I can listen to that guy play allll day long.

    Someone mentioned other drummers... Dave Weckl, whom I'm sure most of you viewing this know, but if not, check that dude out as well, he's breath taking in his abilities as well.

  • Man, he is a groovin player. Carter is awesome!

  • nice!

  • the only guy, in my opinion, who works a hi-hat like this guy is stewart copeland

  • I heard him mess up! HE IS HUMAN!!!

  • Carter plays so relaxed and makes everything look so effortless. Amazing player... and open handed too. You can tell he's always having a blast behind those drums.

    He's in a league of his own, imho. I'm not a DMB fan, but I listen just to hear Carter's impeccable drumming.

  • wheres the rashie?

  • that hi hat is OH SO CRISPY

  • @Glonito

    nah, the Mastersound A Customs are crispy!!!

  • his right and left hand snare hit doesn't sound the same. it happens - that's a relief... hooray for open handed drumming

  • Carter has a nice clean technique. 

  • CARTER YPU ARE DEFFINITALLY MY FAVORITE DRUMMER EVER!!!!!!

    ( t-t-t-t-t-t-todayyy junior!!!!)

  • Carter is a monster, yet his parts are so slick and seamless

  • play hard!

  • How clean dude, it just blew my mind

    One of best drum players on the world

  • @trynuxxx wrong. the BEST drummer in the world

  • @trynuxxx Yes,i'm more in metal drumming but carter beauford fuckin OWNS.

    He's so fuckin underrated.

  • i love thissss. i wish he played the whole song of satellite

  • That bass drum sounds like a baby in a washing machine.

  • I fully agree with vidsofawesomeness . They are totally different as far as styles go . They are both awesome for the genre of music that they play though. Carter is also left hand dominant as well .

  • @xavierspade666 if you listen to the musicianship, you will realize how close-minded that comment was on your part. I love Neil, but they are in different realms of drumming and you cant compare them.

  • Carter!!!!.....Monstruo de la sincopa!!!!!.....full inspiration!!!

  • Forgetting the fact that I am a man.....I would still bear his children.......I got the hips for it....

  • @MrPilotstyle Get to the back of the line.

  • @xavierspade666 carter is better than Neil... wayyy better. and if you dont like satellite ..then go listen to "freewill' THATS THE WORST SONG EVER

  • @lebronsmyboy6 thats bull shit man... these are completely different styles of music here, and no man... freewill is one of the best ever. carter and neil would both be like, "why the fuck do you care who's better?" This is about music. Carter wouldnt be here without Neil's influences, and if your too caught up in comparing drummers and continue to waste your time not learning from either... you dont know what drumming is about, and even worse, you dont understand music...

  • @camair2112 on youtube and mentioning Neil fucking pert in a you tube video. I respect the guy for what hes been through but Carter is so much better. Just for your info i know music and i understand it very well. and im pretty sure carter wasnt sitting at home listening to rush on his off nights buddie. He was to busy creating things for dmb, carter paints pictures inside of songs. thats why he meshes so well in that band.. all rush tunes sound alike gayboy.

  • @lebronsmyboy6 Im sorry you feel that way... Carter is my favorite drummer as of right now. A) It's Peart. B) They are different styles. C) Grow up. I mean its progression of influences, and if it weren't for drummers SUCH AS NEIL, drummers we have now would not have been like "wow, i want to do that, with my own personal take." But both neil and carter can do shit the other will never be able to do, and I will have to disagree with you... on the fact that one it better than the other. Sorry.

  • @camair2112 there is no such thing as better or best. some people like to say that and claim its and "opinion" even though the statement has to have factualy validity in order to be true. if both carter and neil played the same style of music, then the argument changes because there is a common focal point. there is nothing you can do about ignorance. if someone watches neil and carter and bases their debate on whos better by using only them as examples, their argument has no basis anyway.

  • Good one guys, you've successfully all made yourselves look like dumb Americans.

    

  • one of the greatest, least-known-about drummer of our age.... not a lot of people connect amazing drumming with DMB, but once they listen for it, they'll hear it and be delighted

  • @TheTrain2020 you're a dick for such a racist comment...asshole.

  • @TheTrain2020

    shut the fuck up

  • @TheTrain2020 lol it's funny how some people think racism can only apply to black people. u can be racist against white people too u know? even saying something like black people are better than white people at sports is racist comment. u could be even saying a good thing about a race but its still racism since ur putting a certain race at a level or condition that u have generalized over the whole race. its just people only care if ur saying something bad about a certain race

  • @brandonsmith666 well, to use the word 'niggers' is being racist. if you are black, you should know better to use such a word. if you are not...you are being racist.

  • @TheTrain2020 cracker is racist too. i don't think any of those types of words are appropriate. jmo

  • @brandonsmith666 nah man leave the dude alone. he could use something better like black people got soul, because they do. but niggas do got the groove man

  • @girltant dude can drum, but don't call him by a racial word. we are all humans and don't need to be called by anything but our names.

  • @TheTrain2020 Dude, you're a fucking ass hole... You are the kind of person that makes the world as fucked up as it is... You can't just watch a video without feeling a need to flame it? What kind of sick fuck are you? I wish I lived back in the 1700's where I could shoot motherfuckers like you and get away with it.

  • @TheTrain2020 Niggers is a racist word, so saying it in general is racist. The proper termanology is african americans. In fact, just say that you love when he plays the drums, because he's just talented for himself, race doesn't at all tie in.

  • @ericcarrtime actually Nigger is not a racist word... it turned into a word with negative connotations depending on the user and the context because of its use BY racists... the word negro pronounced with that 1800's southern accent becomes nigra - becomes nigger - becomes perjorative because of the people that would use it - southern whites... yankees apparently knew how to pronounce the word "negro"...

  • @ericcarrtime

    Well... He isn't african, but he is american. African american is correct for a former african who is now american. i actually have 3 african american friends, 2 are white. So... proper term... Doesn't really exist... but to be honest, I found the most generally accepted is (you guessed it) black.

  • one of the best drummers aling with neal peart

  • one of the best drummers aling with neal pert

  • Comment removed

  • is syncapaited a word? =p haha i love dmb lmk fuck u

  • @DyloNotNylon

    syncopated yeah, means accenting the beats that aren't normally accented basically

  • @DyloNotNylon haha not the way you spelled it hahaha

  • this guy hihat rolls r the best

    yea he do make u wanns stop drumming lol

  • my favorite drummer. magician of all symbols. i cant name many others that incorporate the symbols as fluidly and naturally as carter, creating harmonies that collaborate with the music. of course, it helps to have a dozen... haha

  • love that snare sound!

  • what is wrong with all you people?? you should take the time to read the comments thoroughly before you take the time to write comments...i love carter he's one of the best drummers ever. i draw alot of inspiration from him. all of you who sent me comments about my ignorance and my idiocy...all you had to do was read two more lines to see what i meant.....talk about ignorant

  • i wish he had spoken about playing the hi hat with , and leading with his left hand on a right handed kit ... i think it is a big part of why he sounds the way he does

  • Abraham Leborial Jr. told me personally to take his style and make it mine too apply his style and personalize it and take it to the next level. Keep Drumming Bro.

  • hell yeah i'm breaking out my set again today

  • the groove at the end is

    SO TASTY

  • syncopated is the way he talks!!!!

  • Comment removed

  • don't open your mouth and play the drums, you are way better doing that. super!

  • im grabbing my fucking practice pad and my sticks man!

  • @Huitzel Do it.

  • he makes do drums even more

  • this guys is amazing but DAnny Carey is still my favorite drummer of all time

  • at the end there in satellite he is ghosting his 16th notes to keep time on the high hat...

  • Carter is awesome- this vid is some great info on the hi hat techniques he uses, for sure-

    check out this solo by the author of

    "The Book of Funk Beats- grooves for snare, bass and hi hat"

    search:

    "Drum Solo in 3 Movements" on YouTube

  • i love how he's a righty but leads with his left. this dvd is awesome as fuck. I encourage any intermediate to buy this dvd. experts can definitely take something positive from this, but I just think it's cool to watch the man work his magic.

  • boner

  • I'm changed! I never thought of it like that before. I normally do my talkin with the bass and snare, but the way the hat work changed a simple 4/4 into a funky beat was incredible. I'm gonna have some fun with that. Thank you Carter!

  • I love the skill carter has he the fucking man

  • who ever the 9 people who didnt like that video. GET A LIFE.

  • the daddy of the drums

  • on one day, i can play drums like carter. i hope it :)

  • Good point Dudlikes223, Carter is amazing. IDK what jwt0bos was thinkin when he said this is Cater's best contribution to drumming in my opinion cuz every time he makes a great contribution every time he picks up his sticks. LOL.

  • hes a fuckin genius

  • @MikeSomethinK thanks :) you're right, i was just lazy for not looking into it.

  • your penis

  • is that a k custom or an A custom?

  • anyone know what type of pro mark sticks he's usin?

  • @keviwevi93 Those are his own signature hickory 5A sticks from promark. Theyre very similar to their classic 5A model but with a shorter taper
