RUSH - HEMISPHERES "PRELUDE" A DRUMMING TRIBUTE BY RAY HARBER HD

I will do the rest of Hemispheres (eventually) but "Prelude" was practiced enough to record. While I was listening to playback, I realized that one of my toms was horribly out of tune! Hopefully it's not to distracting. Anyway, I'm trying to do these videos as often as I can, I've got a lot going on right now, so please be patient with me! Thanks again, everyone.

Holy jesus, absolutely perfect, i've listened to that song no less than 10,000 times, and know every drum beat, and you hit em all! amazing.

@dmorin74 Wow...Thanks a lot!

[Japadian]

Unbelievable!

I don't need to say anything about the drum work, as it speaks for itself.

However, a point of interest for me: how did you record this? I don't see any mics? Did you just have a couple of really good condensers sitting over the set?

Cheers!

[rays2112]

Just the camcorder mic, believe it or not!

Quite possibly THE best drum cover of this song on YouTube. I am quite the avid Rush fan, and this is simply amazing...in my opinion, absolutely flawless. As I watched, I kept thinking "what's he gonna do next?", and sure enough you kept me in suspense all throughout. To sum it up in one word: perfect.

[rays2112]

Wow, thanks a lot! I didnt see this comment until now or I would have replied earlier...Thank you!

[DamagedF0X]

YES! I WAS SOOO HOPING YOU WOULD DO THIS ONE!

The riffs on this song are just face melting.

Really good sounding drums! All too often I see people trying to make up for poor tones by miking and EQing the crap out of everything. Having it sound really good with one or two mikes is the sign of a good drum sound.

Great playing also!!

[rushfanbytor]

Really great work, finally get to see someone cover this song.

[newmannow]

Flawless. Truly an amazing brain you have sir. How long did it take you to learn this piece? I am throughly impressed.

[92pearlexport]

what kinda cymbals do you have especially the ride man sounds awsome

[Prostheta]

2:05 Godlike lil' flick there....and with practical use!

[JBossInAction]

@dmorin74 I too have listened to this song no less than 10,000 times. Maybe 100,000. 

[vtx1300dave]

such a treat to hear you play.  Hope all is well.

[n2112bytor2112p]

two questions.......

where do i get that thing that makes the DING sound at about 3:06 and how much does it cost?

How do you get the song perfectly over the drum track, and what editing program do you use?

[drums2play1]

nice kit!!
