Dream Theater - 6:00 Drum-Intro

[xristosdimitris]

great player great drums everything is amazing great job!!!!!!!!!

[TheIronDrummer317]

actually, if you subdivide the rhythm and everything, they're 32nd notes, not 16th's. just sayin... not dissin on yer video or anything, just stating a fact so that all the "geniuses" that ARE dissing your video have nothing to say, because they're wrong.

[wannabedrummerlol]

more reverb

[sonick808]

nice chops!

[Roestikrokette]

amazing octo sound!

[evildwarf100]

what mics do you use?

[FriKKuzzo]

Very good playing , plus your drumset is very nice !

[cHARLESSOET]

What kind of Sabian crash is that main crash you use in this vid?

[OneTakeJesus]

@cHARLESSOET 18 inch aax xplosion crash

[MrRichardNoggin]

ur drums sound like portnoys too from the awake days!

[manseaua]

sounds great but you need to mic your hi hat better turn up or over heads or get a mic for the hi hat sm 57s are good for high hats they get good highs and are crispy would never use them for toms though

[JWPMAN1]

I can't decide what's better your drums or your drumming XD

[sydneylovesyouXD]

nice what kind of drums do you have they sound really nice?

[underscoreisnotvalid]

the micing and reverb sound amazing. what program/interface do you use?

[cottingerjr]

[cottingerjr]

@cottingerjr DISREGARD SELF; FOUND IT

[RodrigoFonsecaCosta]

[SilenceTheProphetGtr]

@kayotixlords those would be paradiddles yes?

[Spence233]

Cleaaaaaaaaaan

[kayotixlords]

dude you gotta learn how to do diddles or rolls for this cause at the very end of that part there are diddles on the hi hat

[xXbrick84Xx]

For everyone wanting to make octobans:

Go to google, search for "how to build tube toms", there will be a link to a website called arrickrobotics, there you'll find everything you need to know. Sorry I can't post a link cause youtube sucks monkey cock, but just google that and you'll find it, should be the first link. Very informative and helped me a lot, I'm in the process of building my own.

Hope it helps,

Brick

[leonciodavid]

@xXbrick84Xx

Waw!! man, thx for this!!

I'm making my octobans too!

[F0uLy]

@xXbrick84Xx It's funny how you can't post it on youtube, yet you use google (The owner of youtube) to find it haha

[RebelliousToast]

Where did you get those octobans?

[RabidGerbilBoy]

[bloodsoking]

[yourface260]

[mattdrum4u]

Your drums sound really good. What are you using to record with?

[Dufflad08]

what is the time signature for this part of 6:00?

[PortnoyxDT]

@Dufflad08 4/4... suprisingly

[Dufflad08]

@PortnoyxDT ......seriously?... I'm amazed somehow lol Ihalf expected it to be 6/16 or some weird shit lol

[MrPrimetime4004]

[LJLiveLV]

where did you find hardware for your octobans?



[KingandQueens12]

[Paragon5761]

@KingandQueens12 Those clear toms on the left are octobans. He made them himself. You can get them made by Tama though

[XDrUmErBoY512X]

[pinkfloydfan417]

Great groove!

[reandor]

Nice one

[epilp2]

Toms sound great.

[Hawk7581]

Those are obviously cheapER!! Octobons but they sound great!!

[steptoesaunt]

Love the sound of those dinky little Octobans,and the kit, I wanted you to play longer man, let youself go a bit,freeflowing,I was digging the impact of your sound then you stopped.

[FaaGood]

[briandrumsandbikes]

Nice job.

[FOMFAH2]

[1123pinkfloyd]

[A7xdrumr]

[Zildjianownsabianaha]

[MindstormRecs]

Wow your snare is both crispy as fuck and sounds exactly like the recording, nice work

[drummerkid904]

What kind of splashes are those? They sound nice.

[drummerkid904]

Very nice

[Bradston07]

I just wanted to point out that if you YouTube "Dream Theater New Drummer" this video is the fouth video and and fist dream theater cover! Hahaha lucky! I bet your the new drummer! Lol that'd rock!

[chrisfactoryboi]

[Imrez]

Love the reverb that you use, almost as cool than the one we hear on Awake!

[silentboy85]

wut mic u used for tom tom?

[Stanthekiller123]

i think its played a little fast, but its always easier to slow down then pick up the pace.

[MrLalodrums]

you are awesome!! cheers from monterrey, mexico!

[ProDrumReviews]

you really nailed this one!! nice work

[tommasotemporin]

i love the sound of the crash :) is that a sabian AAX studio crash 18'?

[adrumlegend]

how expensive are those acrylic tubes?

[chrisfactoryboi]

@adrumlegend Acrylic tubes ROFL (also known as Octobans) :)

[zomgrandomtext]

The first one sounds a little bit fast compared to the recorded version but I'm not complaining.

It's perfect.

[drummerkid904]

@zomgrandomtext

It is faster than the recording, but that makes it more incredible that he can still play it perfectly :D

[InsaneDrumer18]

nice playin dude but here is how you can play hi hat with both hands.... 4/4 RLRL RLLR LRLR LDLL RLRL RLLR LLRL LRLL that is the main groove.....

[Proghead88]

@InsaneDrumer18 There's no need to play it with both hands. Sounds/looks perfect like this. I'm pretty sure MP also plays it like this.

[InsaneDrumer18]

@Proghead88 i know but it s easier this way.....not everyone can play with one hand that fast...

[MRLauTa]

Actually, it's pretty Good.. But, in the intro, apart from the 2/16th notes in the bass drum you didn't do, there are 2/16th notes in the end of the fill (octovans part) that you didn't do.. Listen to Dream's Version carefuly and you'll see.. Anyways, it's a dificult intro, and you made it very well ;)

[phoenix7289]

Love your kit man and love the home-made octobans! I hate to do it but I'm going to ask for a video on how to make them too! XD GREAT job covering this intro though man! Most people (including myself) fuck it over badly. haha

[hitqw]

i lke your snare sound

[preoccupante]

Bellissimo!!

[fulegutten]

love your octabons. how big are they?

[agentsteell]

why do u play it so fast? someone with a gun behind u ? :P

nice playing though ;)

[marcusfedgus]

@agentsteell It goes that fast when portnoy plays it live :)

[guggsdugrass]

spielst du in ner band? wenn ja wie heisst sie? musikstil?

[dreamtheaterfan39]

[Alefeneves1]

Bom!!!

[fenrysfenry]

Great man! your drum sounds perfect! I hope you show us the rest of the music soon.

[gsxracer1977]

eey man, you forgot the doublebass at the intro ;) over all it's good. (mike portnoyfan)

[Roestikrokette]

Sehr sauber klingendes Set, und 1 A Präzision!!

[PortalRealm]

[Nincida]

[ironman197268]

[VanishingDigital]

a bit too fast, and starts with a double snare hit. also you need to make the.... idon't know what its called im no drummer... tom fill? longer.

[plap111]

usually you try and get faster to impress people.

[aft3rgl0w]

[rihirdo1]

[233kid]

Nice job playing it at tempo and then breaking it down for everyone.

[Alukart117]

Okay thats weird. Your drums sound like EXACTLY like the one from the song :b.

[nielswil]

What kind of materials did you use to build the octobans?

I've tried to build them but didnot succeed.

[penguinkitty19]

Sounds great, long live Dream Theater

[96thMalice]

Great Sound !!

[ragzy02]

Awesome job, but why not just go ahead and add those 16th note kicks at the beginning? Do you not have a double pedal? Just wondering cause it sounds way cooler with it in there.

[zakkwyldeverehrer]

best 6:00 cover on youtube.

[limesasquatch]

kit sounds wicked

[XxbMcxX23]

what country do you live in

[AAXplosion]

Germany

[MRTHATSFAKEANDGAY]

AWESOME!!!!!

[kL30n]

perfect sound man and good staff

[DanFdoCC]

Where did you get those octovans?

[AAXplosion]

I built it by myself

[DrummerOfVendetta]

@AAXplosion Did you make the stand too or what did you use for the stand?

[DrummerOfVendetta]

@AAXplosion For the octobans also where did you get the 6" hoops. I can't find them anywhere

[tpp8]

@AAXplosion dude how did you build them, i was looking for them and i didn't find anyone

[MrTeslasRevenge]

@AAXplosion Can you do a video on how to make octoban's like those?

[NeekTheNook]

@AAXplosion i know you built them yourself but what parts did you use? did you just find some industrial tubing some drum brackets? and just put them together?

[InsaneDrumer18]

@AAXplosion how dude?

[SuperXpress2]

@AAXplosion You made those octobans your self?

[drummerkid904]

@AAXplosion

That's absolutely insane. How'd you do it?

[Joskethefarmer]

@AAXplosion how do you built octobans? :)

[racestarter88]

@AAXplosion can you tell me what materials you made them out of???

[MCAmaZ]

@AAXplosion What material you used to making those octobans? :) They sound great! And what heads you have in them?

[DogMoshPit]

@AAXplosion

Please make a how to video :)

[SuperDieformetal]

@AAXplosion HOW? PLEASE TELL ME! :)

[DanFdoCC]

@AAXplosion could you give us a little explanation of how to do it, do they have bearing edges?

[metaldrummer12345]

well done dude

keep on drumming.

und du hast recht, der anfangsfill is völlig jacke wie hose. und den groove spielst du (fast) wie herr portnoy

[rskateboy]

Awesome! Now I wanna learn it.

[hazzathebest]

hay did you put your mics through a computer program to get that sound out of them.

[AAXplosion]

mics -> mixer -> computer ;-)

[hazzathebest]

Hay with ya micing did ya use a computer program tio change the sound of the drums themselves

[drummerboy11695]

dude i love this...........but i gotta know how much them octobans cost

[AAXplosion]

thx! they are selfmade. so they cost about 250 euros + a lot of work ;-)

[Benjaminvv93]

@AAXplosion Cool drumming man! Where get you the stuff for the octobans from? I like them!

[Manic205]

@drummerboy11695 He built them himself, but i do think they cost quite a lot.

[dabycle]

like

[tigerbesaire]

Amazing drum mic sound, can't even tell its youtube

[HotShotR92J]

damn..how loaded do u hav 2 be 2 afford a kit lyk tht..

u deserve it tho! :)

[Mikkuification]

perfect sound

[Coiler82]

Sound awesome,which filter do you use for cubase?

[ElGolpeatambores]

i like your kit and its sound and of course the help for the song

[manifestgtr]

I love it when people criticize a guy for altering a couple 16th notes here and there...calm down there nerdy nerderson....clearly he can play it very well

[Solar2]

Really nice kit. Nice work on the beat. Good vid

[872andy872]

what time signature is this song in?

P.S. thanks for the help

[EternityLastsForever]

Actually its not in only one simple time signature. It´s in multiple oddtimed signatures.

[EternityLastsForever]

@872andy872

[XxbMcxX23]

ur toms sound good

[Manic205]

Thanks for this dude, I can play it now thanks to this video ftw.

[bojadrummer]

Hey man,nice. :)

i wanna learn it to. how did you study it?

do u have a good site with the sheet music?

[scaxxomaxx]

this is supposed to be a tutorial,you should learn by watching this video ;)

[shortperson1026]

I think that when people record it, it sounds so much better than it actually does, but I'm sure it sounds really good!

[FireForFreezing]

ooo man that kit sounds real nice :)

[marklung]

@FireForFreezing hell yea....I was going to say the same thing...damn. Everything sounds perfect.

[TheWho852]

Are you using portnoy custom sticks?

[ratchet2424]

hay what kind of mic are you useing

i like the sonde

[Zynpar09]

Wow that crash cymbal sounds amazing.

[helenaki8]

well done! i think you have the most importand thing to be a proffesional drummer. you play relax

[sendoh182]

I hope you speak english. Good technic and control: you look very relaxed while playing. This is a good thing.

But I have to tell you that you play it wrong: I mean, the opening fill is longer than how you play it. Moreover, a couple of kickdrums notes are missing at the very beginning of the fill.

[AAXplosion]

why do all people talk about that intro roll?????

do you read the comment at the beginning of the video? It doesn't matter. The beat is the main thing ;-)
