  • genial D:

  • @sheabags1 Hey, I checked out several of their songs and they are quite good! I did notice the keyboard doing some live loops and he did it well. That is the kind of looping I really like. I guess thats how they make such a full sound! I really enjoyed them, thanks for the heads up!

  • @TheRjjrjjr Check out some Benevento/Russo Duo. Joe Russo does some amazing live looping, he just has a different style Futureman.. Gotta agree with your take on Bela's unconventional approach.

  • @sheabags1 Well, because of your reply I did listen more critically to a number of songs and I did find a couple in which he actually did a fair job. I will say that they were quite a bit older than the songs I have been listening to. I don't know why but Future Man seemed to get worse as the years went on. I will admit to being too harsh in my original post. I know that Bela Fleck doesn't like anything conventional so Future Man seems to fit that motif but I simply do not like looped drums.

  • @TheRjjrjjr Truthfully, I wouldn't call him a "third rate excuse for a percussionist". That being said, I'm not a huge fan, myself.. I think that he's incredibly talented, I just think that he over-does-it sometimes. Sometimes his staccato, offbeat style takes away from the flow of the song, for me.

  • This is incredible!

  • GOT DAYYUMMM!!

  • look at wooten showin off his bass skillz at 2:00

  • As someone who has built and played a similar instrument, there definitely a difference in how "canned" drums (recorded samples) and real drums sound. Not only that, but the difference in the feeling of how one plays is significant. Choosing the right canned sounds is important! Plus how the drums are mixed, both in the machine and mixed.

    Futureman is a vastly underated drummer- he plays "regular" too. Just listen to his talent - he didn't get to be in the Flecktones if he wasn't great!
