Nathaniel Townsley parte 1

[FeverTony]

Surely the best drum performance I've ever seen. He's a real musician. I first thought he was just using pattern,etc. but now,years later, I realy understand and rather feel the music in it...and all I can say is wooouuuuuaaouh...All my respect to this guy.

[palangikai]

He has the cheat codes. bastard!

[TrevWILL79]

@MrFootball102, very much agree, But Nat is the type that doesn't crave that kind of attention. He's a low key guy.

[mozartbelemita]

GROOVE fantastic!!!!!

[cfcefa09]

the part after this video when the whole band joins in, the drumming gets absolutely insane

[FrizzyDiouleBiGbonus]

great very very great

[Zapulzen]

How much does it cost to replace all those heads?...

[choredavey]

Mike Johnston brought me here...

Fuck :O

he's tight!

[DrummerZful]

omg.. i really love the way he play... he inspire me

[kellynkarr]

I absolutely love his style. He is so relaxed and talented.

[pajarin438]

Musica!!! Wuaw!!

[EnyLovesDrums]

Pocket pocket pocket.

[richardmcdonaldmma]

Groove.

[Paukister]

jajajajajajajajajajaja thats right, he is like the japanesse musicians, they does not aply for music discussions

[brycewastney]

This is where percussion and music intersect. Brilliant.

[hotarrow4]

Looks like ray allen

[prettythuggi]

@hotarrow4 More like Dewaye Wade

[8line8]

Where the hell are my Sticks?!

[vigilhammer]

Now this is a solo.... for once, i dont feel i`m a kitchen when i hear 99% of the drum solos out there.

[mattvarela]

THATS HOW YOU MAKE DRUMS SING

[javierdrummer07]

@mattvarela aja! thats waht we call "musicality"

[TrevWILL79]

He has all the tools, grove, pocket, timing, dymanics, and stuff that make you say DAMN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[DeathRoll18]

@TrevWILL79 Or SHIT. That was my word.

[aids69dude]

this proves that playing relatively quietly opens up so many doors and u hear so much more

and when it gets louder he still keeps the cool subtle bits while giving the track bounce

u cant teach that shit...

[neelshiv]

This dude has complete and utter control over his drums.

[skinsandsticks]

I watched this video (at least the longer upload) back when I first started playing, and now I know why I was so marveled at his playing, and I still am. He is in a league of his own.

[JSKdrumming]

wow man thats awesome!

[Drummer72708]

True master of the accent.

[tomclick]

Melodic and rhythmical mastery of an almost god-like proportion. I am guessing half of today's drummers could not sit, wait, and listen.

[polocarreraultracast]

tremendo su groove enloquece!!!!!!

[nevada10312007]

thats my pastor son

[jasontheseechin]

you know there's something special here when you can't detect any signs of human errors in his playing.. nothing at all.. wow

[JDomineyPercussion]

so under-rated. purely amazing control, power and precision :) love his groove

[claudiodrums1]

great drummer!



[iggiguggi]

wow

[keit3h21]

another portion is under nathaniel townsley drum

[trulyfeproject]

AMAZING!!!!! This is a guy i need to study, cuz he's clean!!!

[djalexmac]

Yes, it's strange how he bathes daily, yet he still appears dirty...?

[sentient07]

he's such a talented pussy

[ytsephill]

Damn! Should have downloaded the long version when I had the chance!

[ChemiInquiro]

Is a machine! Awesome!!

[lote19manzanaw]

mother fucker!!! iwould like to suckk urr dickkk all day long!!!!

[webstercat]

At 2:11 where he is sweeping the toms. I believe he is just playing two sixteenth note triplets with two notes per tom, but so fast it is hard to see. All in all seven notes, six on the toms and last note on bass drum. Not consider what is played on snare.

That is what I hear. If I'm wrong correct me.

[ChemiInquiro]

Three words:

Oh

My

God!

[bastianqueen7]

maestro!!!!!!!!!!!!

[crunchingcolors]

2:40-2:50 tight as hell!!!

[onesogreat77]

his not human

[dm6testa777]

@onesogreat77 he is not human indeed

[BCvonRayfus]

Dear sweet lordy...He's a machine. He's gotta have gas-powered wrists or something, rather fingers, actually. Drummers that fast would ruin their wrists building speed and endurance, one might think. Speed like that comes form the fingers, but dang, he's gotta have good control over his fingers.

[edwardmdee]

Ну прям как я!

[rumun73]

жирно!

[Tungil06]

where is the long/full verion gone??

please re-upload it! ;)

[MuikuliWander]

@Tungil06 It was apparently removed due to copy right thing... Too bad... The whole solo is phenomenal.

[Tungil06]

damn shit -.-

is there no possibility to upload it somewhere else?

maybe you someone wants to share links with me? ;)

[MuikuliWander]

@Tungil06 Possibly yeah but I don't have the DVD it's ripped from so I can't help you...

[Tungil06]

thanks for the info ;)

[oOAnUb1sOo]

@Tungil06 Found it on my old mobile, look at my uploads!

[inimicalODDITY]

Wow. He's got such incredible dynamic control.
