The Eagles - Hotel California (Drum Cover)

[christianverardidawg]

can you put up a lesson for this song

[natthegrait]

Did you teach yourself how to play it?

[zaderq1]

im lloking to get an e kit cuz a real drum kit would be too loud for my apartment. what model is that youre playing? thanx

[flexpint]

@zaderq1

Hey there buddy. In this video I'm playing the Roland HD-1 drumkit. It's perfect if you can't make a lot of noise or if you have limited space.

[williamwilbur]

I got the same drum kit :D

[deanborg0062]

There is no 'proper way'. Even a right-handed drummer can play without crossing over his hands. This is called the open method, and has many advantages.

[zombieroboy]

I request that you play D'yer Mak'er by Led Zeppelin.

[purfectw0lf]

yo man ur good any tips? 

[celtics1104]

hey man great job , how big are the drums? i have limited space. And where did you get the audio cable to connect your ipod. did you buy their accessory pack or did you get the clable somewhere else

[savenay11]

easy !

[Jcbproducoes]

same drums as i have!! HELL YEAHH!

[giants311]

I don't get why you want a electronic drum set over a real one they sound like shit

[AlainBradette]

I like the fact that you are left handed playing a right handed Electric drum kit. and nice job, i loved every minuit of it!Try a day in the life beatles cover, i love the drums in there and i knoiw you have it in u!=]

[infurisation]

I fell a sleep.. :(

You can have more fun playing this song.....use ur creativity!

[therailwizard1994]

what set is that

[theGregorioAlfieri1]

crosses his arms to play, the right goes over the left and goes on charlison and the left is taking the right under the snare

[brickmaster24]

Hey im gonna buy a drum set and is this set any good?

[thekingnounours]

@brickmaster24 depend of your budget ! :)

[TheZantark]

man you re very good!! you played a nice song to easy and that is not easy to do...bravo you re perfect!

[justo1900]

tocas con la mano zurda porque no pones la bateria para zurdos?

[flexpintdrummer]

@justo1900

Hope you understand english, and I hope I understood your questions.

I'm playing this way simply becasue I wasn't taught the "proper way" I'm also left handed, but you can play the Roland HD-1 in any way you prefer.

[JohnTheodo]

@flexpintdrummer Left handed people have their proper way too. I think your kit might make you confuse. What I mean is that the lefty kits have their stuff in another locations.

[babes1495]

@flexpintdrummer i have a good idea 2 understand his question :) use google translate!! :D hope this helped!! :)

[babes1495]

@flexpintdrummer i have a good idea 2 understand his question :) use" google translate"!! :D hope this helped!! :)

[Jcbproducoes]

@flexpintdrummer i´m left handed too and I play both ways, with that same drumkit XD

[Guerrillablackdog]

@flexpintdrummer justo1900 asked, "You play with your left hand, so why don't you set up the kit left handed?"

[BigLittleJan]

@justo1900 Yo digo lo mismo, es el primero que veo que se pone a hacer eso en vez de poner la bateria para zurdos.

[aassyr1111]

good cover and the drums sounds TOO digital

[jaredpaolo25]

question, if you hit it harder, would the sound also be harder? xD

[flexpintdrummer]

@jaredpaolo25

Good question!

A: Yes, depending on how hard you hit, the sound will be "harder". That's the thing with E-drums. A cheaper budget kit might not give a lot of difference in feel depending on how hard you hit, but the better kits from especially Roland and also Yamaha has developed a great sensitivity in their kits if you know what I mean.

[Jcbproducoes]

@jaredpaolo25 yes

[marcadet62]

Good cover.

[kaide1000]

you sure about playing the hi-at whit your left hand 0.0

[flexpintdrummer]

@kaide1000

I actually shift between playing hi-hat with left and right hand just for fun! When I first started playing I did it with the left hand on hi.hat so yeah.. that's the way it's always been :)

[stasbraguta]

Bravo !!!dude

[flexpintdrummer]

@stasbraguta

thanks a lot! :)

[J4NLU7H3B35T]

How do you recorder the sound of the drum?

[flexpintdrummer]

@J4NLU7H3B35T

hi!

A regular 2.1mm. cable from the Module into the computer and then "mic in".

I record everything with a program called "Audacity". Windows movie maker works as well though.

[frosch090808]

never see a drumstyle like this before. You're playing the HiHat with your left hand and the snare with the right. I think you are an left-hander. It's anomalous, that you playing on a right-hander drumset.

[flexpintdrummer]

@frosch090808

yeah I don't know if im to say thanks or what. this is the way i've always been drumming. Since I never took any lesson no one ever told me how to old or whatever :)

[nushanusha1]

it would be great in a high quality but anyway I like it very much!! :))

[flexpintdrummer]

@nushanusha1

agreed. this was recorded with a pretty old cell, my newer videos will be better :)

[nushanusha1]

it would be great in hd quality :)))

[dasswar]

wow, great man, thanks for the video

[flexpintdrummer]

@dasswar

thanks so much.

[chadlovesdrums]

they have to be the most awkward drum kit i have ever sat ont

[flexpintdrummer]

@chadlovesdrums

yeah, by the looks of things you could say that. but if you know anything about e-drums you wouldn't say that. It's small, yeah, but honestly I can say that it's a solid e-drum kit. Works perfectly fine for practicing at home and for beginners.

[KelseyKemnitz]

1. ur off. and 2 u got ur snare set as a tom not a snare. FIX IT!!!!

[flexpintdrummer]

@KelseyKemnitz

1= Oh ok, sorry.

2= I don't follow?

[alexis1798]

Genial man :D

[flexpintdrummer]

@alexis1798

cheers thank you very much

[PhildeCritic]

one of the best covers ive heard out there. keep on drumming :D and what is the name of that drum set? planning to get an electric drum set, wondering if is any good.

[KelseyKemnitz]

@PhildeCritic its a roland. they are probably the best brand of electric drum sets that there are out there. otherwise go for a yamaha. those are good as well.

[flexpintdrummer]

@PhildeCritic

yeah this is the roland hd-1 kit. works perfectly fine for beginners and for practicing at home. If you're rather new to drumming I promise that you will be happy with this kit.

[sjlarcadia]

awesome man. :)

[vamsi1132]

awesome man

[vamsi1132]

great work man:) how much is ur set.........huh?

[flexpintdrummer]

@vamsi1132

I bought it new like a year ago and I believe it was around $600-700 then.

[Migaluch3]

I know how to play the hi hat beat, but how is it notated? What rhythm would you call that?

[hellenic300]

In the air tonight by Phil Collins

[cheetaclone64]

you should make lessons



[mrn95]

[eytychios]

[mymd11]

[guitarfiend2231]

very awesome bro good job i love this song

[flexpintdrummer]

@guitarfiend2231 cool :D

[anton31337]

awesome!

[flexpintdrummer]

@anton31337 glad you liked it!

[TheGamerLord1]

bra anton, do something about the lag lol

[flexpintdrummer]

i have no idea what may have caused it, I'm pretty sure it won't happen more. (hopefully)

[HeavensCrystal]

Lmaoo awesome :] I wish it didnt lag so I can see the proness D:

[musicmaniac1965]

i love this song. glad i finaly could see it, as at first, i got a message someone blocked it's contents. i like the fills in this song. i practiced it with guitar hero world tour, but i can't seem to remember all the fills. good cover, keep on rocking.

[flexpintdrummer]

Hehe yeah remembering when all those fills are to be played and how is somewhat a challenge :P I didn't manage to get it all the way it should be, but oh well, improvision is the key to everything :D

[musicmaniac1965]

@flexpintdrummer : indeed, there's nothing wrong to make a song "your own" by adding or changing some notes. i just like the flow in this song. it's really hard to keep at it all the time, i hear this in this cover, but i have even more trouble to keep attention not to miss the beat :-D still, it's really fun to listen to, and i am amazed how you can do the snarre with your right hand, as almost all drummers use the left for the snarre exept to start a fill :-)

rock on !
