I like what you did here but just a quick tip: Try and variate it a little bit since it is a pop song, i always see this happen when people do alot of covers pre to this where your copying the song 100%, dont get me wrong but playing the song 'perfect' is a bit boring dont you think? just a suggestion...
@mkbelvez Maybe he feels most comfortable like that, I think Mike Portnoy is an okay drummer, but when i try to play in the position he plays in, it hurts my back, moral of this story, it doesnt matter how someone sits when they play drums, its however they feel comfortable.
hey dude love your drum covers! I am a drummer to and i am having difficulty learning songs on my own because i have no teacher any suggestions? How can i learn by myself because right now i just make my own stuff! ahha peace bro
i like this cover but it is not so that i can say woow or something. try to bring something special in this song and don't copy the song perfectly. (sorry for my english:D)
hahahah so funny we he looks at the camera at 0:47...and also he stares at whatever hes hitting...snare fill, stares at the snare drum...then stares at the hi hat...funnnyyyy shit
I agree with YouPrunes...that was a great cover...I'm so sick of people tearing apart other people's drumming. Last I checked drumming is supposed to be fun and enjoyable...it's only music. Any way do it is okay as long as you do it!! some of the best drummers I've heard have never had any formal training and just play their own way...even if their technique isn't spot on (and I wouldn't know)..it sounds great. Thats the bottom line.
i will not say he is bad, as he isnt. he keeps time great, is clean, and the drums sound ok - but this song is just a bad one to cover,unless you completely remix it, because it completely prevents your full abilities from showing, know what im sayin?
Sorry to tel everybody who is knockin the guy, but he is in the groove and pocket. Something that a drummer must be. Simplicity is not bad drumming, doing it simple and well is different than thinking you have balz and showing off chops!
No, seriously I could play this after 3 months of playing drums, *easy*. If you really want a better version, sure, give me a few weeks and I'll do it :)
He's actually quite embarrasingly out of time in a few places considering it's a Katy Perry song and he's playing on a drumkit that's worth more than my car :) Still, a few years have passed and I'm sure he's improved leaps and bounds!
@alballref you will be amazed by how easily this really is. its great drumming but with enough practice i should be able to play this in like a month or so. the rolls are the ones that will get me though but i'll learn the timing. this is a great vid though. :)
aheroonfrie lets see you 24, hes 19 owns a studio has a label, you 273 hits him 16,000,he has a movie out dec 25.you have a fuck N camera what a Fuck N joke
is that how you film,dont look N to the camera.what a LMAO.
Hey Devin , start doin' your own songs or play
with a band .
You're too good for such simple drumcovers .
And ... if you feel good drumming with your shoulders
higher , keep drumming like this .
I make sounds when I play the drums ( Lionel Hampton ) .
It's not a problem untill I push the RECORD button .
