You're drumming is truly amazing and you are a huge inspiration to me. Congrats on making oh sleeper, you deserve it and they couldn't have picked a more perfect drummer.
master what the singles across the tome and nothing complicated whatsoever...respect he said..come on dudes its not thaaat bad...itlll take hime a shitload of practice on even simple rudements to get even 10years away away from mastering anything....jeeeze!!
Just wondering, but were you ever in drumline or were a percussionist in a school band? You have good stick control and I'm just guessing you might have built it up over time by being in drumline or something.
The way you do the diddles and the ghosts notes makes me think that you've taken some kind of band/percussion class in school! From one drummer to another bro, you're a force to be reckoned with, and you'll go far. Good luck!
@thegrimm54321 Go one further and check out Periphery's own drummer Matt Halpern, he plays on a 3-piece live! Just kick, snare, floor tom, and he makes it work brilliantly. Total middle finger to guys who are lost without their 8-piece double bass drum kit with 6 octobans and 20 cymbals.
@Mp5Drummer Dude yeah. It's almost incomprehensible. There are so many "metal" bands that are just like "SPEED MAN IT'S ALL ABOUT SPEED" and speed takes little to no talent. Matt makes me wanna just give up drums sometimes hahah
@Themeinldrummer I'm guessing he preferred the sounds they have to offer? Strange, since I've always thought Meinl suited the style best with their washy rides and huge crashes, but each to their own.
do you got iron cobra's? if so, which ones should I take, the flexi glides the roller glides or the powerglides? You seem like an experienced drummer.
FUCKING AWESOME job at covering Orbin's original playing, which I prefer over Halpern's... the crazy moeller ghost notes and double bass flams were doooopppe.
I Just gotta say, 2:07 is my favorite part of the song, and I was so happy when you made it look just as badass as it sounds hahaha well done man keep playing
Orbin? i thought it was Matt Halpern who recorded the drums on that album. i could be wrong. Awesome job by the way. you should video Commissioned by Kings.
@inimicalODDITY You probably have the mute button clicked. At 0:40 you can clearly hear the audio difference when the angles switch. This is due to the fact that all the audio was recorded with a video camera. I don't have access to a nice studio. Also, at 2:14 you can hear me playing on a crash cymbal but in the actual song hi hats are being played. Does the audio and video get out of sync? Yes.Do I nail every part of this song? Not even close. This is the best I could do with what I had.
@ZacMayfield There really isn't and audio difference at :40, just seems like the track you're playing over seems a bit muted. I am wearing headphones and I can hear the original drum track fine. But for instance, at 3:56 you make an slight mistake and when you correct, there is no difference audible, I can't hear you come in. It sounds the same. I mean it looks like you did a pretty good job, it's just hard to tell how good of a job.
@ZacMayfield dude! this is Great! dont let anybody tell you different. No its not perfect but like you siad it was the best you could do with wat you had! I couldnt do that good. Plus your playing style reminds me of travis orbin.... ENOUGH SAID!haha
@ZacMayfield What did you use to record your audio and video? And what kind of programing or software did you use to switch back and fourth between cameras like that?
@inimicalODDITY You can clearly see every hit of every drum. Dude, even if you can't hear him, you still know he's playing it right! Well.. that's if you play drums.
