Arctic Monkeys - Dangerous Animals (drum cover)

All music by Arctic Monkeys. I do not own this song, no copyright infringement is intended.

Hey guys!! Over the past few days I've been working on some Humbug covers, as some of you might have guessed. My plan is to start uploading at least one song each day. I'll try my best to stick to that plan so you guys can have some early insight on Humbug's main drum parts. I don't think I'm gonna cover every song on the album but hopefully I'm gonna be close to that.

So, Dangerous Animals.

@diegomont406 It's-a-me!

[lukee100]

starting at 0:47, someone please tell me

what is going on?

i cant figure it out

[leperm]

If you get really confused then just break it down. Watch the bass drum, it's doing 8ths. Then watch my right hand, it's also doing 8ths on the floor tom and the crash cymbal (most of the time). Last but not least, take a look at the snare only. Then put it all together.

Tell me if that helped.

this might sound a bit stupid but ive only just hit that point where ive started to properly understand timing and notes because i have just been practising on my own without lessons and now im trying to understand drums in more detail.

just explain briefly what you mean by 8ths i think i know what you mean but i want to be sure

thanks for all the help

A note that lasts for one eighth of a whole note is an 8th note. And a whole note is basically equal to four beats in 4/4 time.

That means that if you're counting in 8ths, you will count 8 times per measure (a measure of four beats, 4/4), or 2 times per beat.

If you're still confused then try this: Listen to this song and try to nod your head (or clap your hands or whatever) to the beat. Those are probably quarter notes. Well, if you were to divide each quarter into two, you'd get 8th notes.

[leperm]

Oh and one more thing, right at the beginning of the video, I'm hitting my sticks with each other before I start playing. Those are quarter notes. 8ths are twice as fast as those.

[WispyTimothy]

Hey dude whats the beat like from 2:25? I've been tryna figure that out but haven't been able to catch it.

Matt Helders is sucha great drummer, maybe the besta around right now, and you do a great job covering him, the thing I like the most was you work with the bass drum, is Great, congratulations!

Audacity?

Oh my God, I think I'm in love... with your talent, your hair, and you o_O

[ChasePinguin]

@brockstudent181 you sound nice, but still remain a dickhead. Fuck off

[brockstudent181]

I just want to say that you're a great drummer and I've 'liked' this video. Just want to say that before I critique one thing.

I specifically watched this video for that tom bridge right before the solo. You did not disappoint. However, I'm a little let down with the post solo drum bit. Listen to the record or watch it live, it sounds like Helders is going to pound through his kit. The same applies to your other videos. Timing is perfect, but I want some showmanship. HIT THE DRUMS HARDER! lol

pause at 3:23 ;)
