Ultimate View of Fire and Flames on Drums

- Since getting my new camera angle and capture setup working on my latest videos, this has been the #1 request by far: to redo TTFAF. (FAQ Below! under "SHOW MORE". Thanks for watching)
I kinda wanted to do it anyway, because looking back at my old TTFAF vids, they're such poor video quality. I never get to see what my hands are doing either, so I wanted to see this video too! ;-)
I think the reason people wanted to see this is to see more closely how I play it with drum sticks. So for some of the trickier sticking parts, I've slowed it down for a few bars and used a Kameo-esque "warrior focus" mode for added effect. I kinda like it. I only did it in parts that are repetitive so that you could also see it played at normal speed in other parts of the song.
This will be my last TTFAF video. I love the song, but it's just too big a mountain to climb. It takes me a 1/2 hour of warm up just to be able to pass it. I practiced it for a couple hours earlier in the day just to try and get back to how good I was at it when I 5-star'd it ( • Through the Fire and F... ) and even so I couldn't quite reach 5 stars (missed it by a measly 5,000 points! If I'd 'a just hit some of those easy SP phrases in the solos, or just not botched the intro... ugh, I'm full of regret... ah well, I have to move on.)
This was my 3rd take of the night and by the 4th one I could barely get through the intro. It's just so tiring! Sweat dripping off my face while I'm playing this. Seriously. But hey, it's a great workout!
Thanks for watching yet another TTFAF video. I really appreciate my subscribers. You guys make it easy to ignore the haters. So I'm glad you like these videos. I enjoy making them.
FAQ:
----
Q: How does it work?
A: Everything is explained in detail here: egyokeo.com/mid...
Q: How do you do 3-note chords?
A: All "two adjacent note" power chords are mapped to the top 4 pads, so with two sticks I can play any 3-note chord except GYO. But I can get that with one stick in left hand and two fingers on right hand.
Q: How do you do whammy and star power?
A: I use a bass drum pedal on my right foot to activate star power, and a hi-hat pedal on my left foot to control whammy depth.
Q: How do you hold notes?
A: My MIDI Hero software has an auto-hold feature for every note hit because it's more natural for a drummer to play that way. It's not a good feeling to mash sticks into drum pads to hold notes.
Q: Which video editor do you use?
A: My earlier videos were made with Windows Movie Maker. My latest videos are made Ulead MediaStudio Pro 8.
Q: How much does this cost?
A: The drumKat is a pro-quality MIDI drum pad set. These days, they run about $1k but I bought my set years ago. I also use a PC to run my custom home-brew MIDI Hero software to interpret the drum events. Then the "XIM" and "XFPS" add another $100+. This is not made for the masses. This is a one-of-a-kind setup.
Q: Do you play real drums? Are you in a band?
A: Yes, I've been playing drums since 1986. I have been in various bands from Jazz to Ska over the years. Right now I'm in the Detroit-based ska band The Exceptions.
Q: Is "MIDI Hero" available to the public?
A: Yes, the details are on my website.

if I was in an apartment and this dude was above me I'd be like "that's one smooth tapdancer"
lol
this comment made my day xD
Evan Burdick your welcome
Wait are you saying tap dancer because you would think he's tap dancing
No he's saying tap dancer because this guy can launch cucumbers out of his ears 100 feet
i like the sound of the sticks hitting the pad.
me too its weird lol
i know right?
Redbull=fap fap fap=that...
Benjam Koponen can not unhear
I'm paying more attention to that than the actual song!
My fucking god, the immaculate rhythm of you hitting those pads pleases my ears to no end.
thats strange
same
FUCK YA!
yeah it's sounds epic! :D
it
but can he play slow ride on easy?
no dude what no one can legend has it someone once did it but they died right after
David Monroy shiiiiiiii
Lol
Easy
Easy easy easy easy easy
Watched this video when I was 9 years old. I'm 23 now and this video is still amazing. Some things never change :D
Saaame lmaoo.
Why are you hitting a panda in the face? :v
Where's PETA when you need them?
+HumdrumCheetah7Busy fighting for PokeMon rights
+metalg33ksolid oh yeah LOL
+metalg33ksolid I can't unsee that
GOD DAMN IT
+metalg33ksolid What has been seen cannot be unseen
this is ridiculous. crazy shit man. like yeah sure he missed a couple notes but dude hes playing the guitar part for Through The Fire and Flames on fucking game drums. that shouldnt be possible.
Was anyone else wondering how he hit a Green, Yellow and Orange chord until he actually did it?
Yes lol
you see the multicore pads?^^
+Kilian Boroske he didn't use them for green, yellow and orange
He has three spare fingers he can use you know
top left and top right, those are a few combinations
Legend says that this guy only needs to sleep for 1 hour a night.

I remember watching this a very long time ago, back when a ttfaf expert fc meant you were part of the current gods of gh3
It's good that yt decided I should watch this again, sure does bring back some memories
I'm calling it. You marched tenors in drum corp
+Francis Cooper What if he learned percussion just to play his favorite game?
+Dillon Skye someone didn't read the description
+Francis Cooper No. He has total drum set grip
+Francis Cooper corps*
Rimenuir Lumfatnur Someone can't take a joke. lol and yes he has a proper grip I can tell.
I still find myself coming back here to watch this now and again
Alright, now play two of them
Blindfolded
Yeah OK that would be literally 0.010% chance of not failing + you can't do it. don't tell him to do something nearly impossible.
+AllTheNintendo 'twas but a joke
+AllTheNintendo Nice math?
AllTheNintendo 0.010 -_- its 0.01
+AllTheNintendo You added that 0 at the end just to make yourself sound smarter, didn't you?
You must be a special kind of special.
No one asked for UA-cam to recommend this almost 11 years later. But I’m very glad it did. Absolute LEGEND.
This would be SUCH a fun way to warm up for a gig
tapping sound is super satisfying
2:49 that breakdown is so satisfying.
All these years later this is still so satisfying
damn over 6 million views and less then 20 thousand subs!?!??! wow u deserve alot more subs for this video
It depends on what he does
well this was a big video in 2008-2011
VAC
+ixinieksLV VAC
+RalphOn - Highlights, Fails & more Overwatch ban
I saw the video back in the day when GH was up in the sky and I was a little boy. I’m still impressed by how clean your doubles are! Nice technique, hope you’re doing great
I love the part 5:43 when he does "Tap tap tap tarrataptaptap"
holy FUCK
massive respect!
Replacing the guitar strum clicks in your ears with soothing drum pad tapping. Godspeed
2019 recommendation squad where u at?
Remember watching this 10 years ago.
Right here
RIGHT HERE MAH DUUUUUDE
Heyo
I'm from the future of 2020 please just skip January there's nothing you want to see February got Shakira and Jlo
*downs 6 cans of redbull, 4 cans of monster and 15 lines of cocaine**
*Im ready...*
As amazing as I remember!
"Why wait until guitar hero has a full band? I can just do this!"
8 years later and I still find this shit amazing 👏🏼👏🏼
I remember watching this in 2014 when i was 7 wow that was a long time ago
look at the flick of the wrist
look at the flick of the wrist
I can do this with my mouth.
U wish
Miguel Mella sure
teeth drumming?
That Awk Guy If you're into teeth... ;)
Miguel Mella
lel fuck that XD
This guy is amazing
I remember watching this years ago, the nostalgia, impressive shit.
he would be a sweet tenor player
yeah his diddles are really good
nah, too much right hand.
You're right, but needless to say he's better than most people.
I hate to be ignorant, but as far as I know being a tenor player would be hitting a tenor with sticks. So I ask, what tenor are you referring to?
Holofech tenor as in quads, drums used in marching band
This just fills me with so much joy and energy
I have no idea why, but it just sounds so..victorious
So he is doing the guitar part of the song on a drum kit basically ?
Yup, He clearly is a professional, he has great control of his is movements
its pretty amazing
Idk why this is in my recommended 10 years later but this is fucking wicked
i hear more tapping then him moving his hand or its the video
There called double-taps each hand stroke can equal 2 taps if you practice balance and bounce you can master it... Look at some of the slow motion parts to see what i mean :)
Actually he's having to use open rolls on the pads. Basically he's making the sticks bounce so that he doesn't have to move his hands insanely fast.
+Sleeping Vortex Yup this guy is a real drummer and plays in a band, so he must've found tricks to make it easier.
The sticks are bouncing off the pads quickly
+Ryblox22 those aren't open rolls lol
YOU ROCK ! :D
I see what you did there
redder876DoesGaming
hehehe :D
What's great is how a mere black line separates each drum. The precision is insane.
FUCKING PROPS MY DUDE
That was the guitar riff, he never actually played the song. You can tell because of when the keys are held, you can't do that on drums, only on guitar. This entire video was a lie.
Kayden Lindsey look at his one foot you see that pedal that is how he did it
I can't believe I haven't seen this until now. And Jesus Christ you're a beast! Now I don't feel so bad about 600k near-fail runs lol... or maybe I feel worse..
instant respect as a fellow drummer u the best iv ever seen
I remember watching dis vid when I was younger after watching a "gh3 im in the band" video after watching the theme song of da Disney xd show " im in the band ". Great memoriez!
Are you playing the drums as a guitarist?
gh3 didnt have drum i think i dont really know
yeah, he is
or is he playing guitar as a drummer?
Oh my fucking god
Drumroll, please!
6:51
I remember watching this in 5th grade. Thought it was the coolest thing ever. I'm a college freshman now😂😂
Hard to believe this was almost 10 years ago
What.The.Actual.Fuck
10 years after this is still impressive.
Why was I only just suggested this today? This is epic.
That's it. I quit Guitar Hero.
I like how now, TTFATF is now commonly FC'd by any popular guitar hero player.
Right?
Remember when TTFATF was a rite of passage?
Insane in the membrane. I guess this is the guy who couldn't wait for GHWT.
truly a masterpiece even in 2021
This was very interesting definitely a new take on how to play the song at least for me never seen this setup I know this video is old but hey you got a new subscriber I really enjoyed seeing this new way of playing
this is the pinnacle of human evolution
this is more impressive than those 100% expert using fake guitar =)
If you can hook up a real guitar so that 5 of the strings correspond with the buttons on screen then be my guest.
The sound that controller makes gave me a soundgasm
Who's watching this at 2019
Bruce Alesin me 😂
Honestly surprised that anyone even watches\ plays GH anymore.
unlike to like again
Do it again!
Mans reached speed of light a few times so the recording had to slow him down
What do your neighbors think when they hear all this beating? xD
Only legends can complete such a task without fail.
Should be titled "Most satisfying video in the universe x2"
stop hitting mickey mouse
Wait a second... this video is ten years old. Thanks UA-cam recommended 👍
Thank youtube for recommending me this video again
Watch this in 2019 :) really cool stuff man, the way you strum is really unique compared to standard guitar controller. Though you say this is your last TTFAF video, i wish to watch FC'd version of this. Anyway great gameplay
Josh Dun is pleased with your work.
We need to send this video out to space to prove we are a worthy species.
*insert inevitable "now FC it" comment here* (seriously though, you did a really good job with this setup)
He may not have fcd but I still have a lot of respect that he made out through the song

2019: UA-cam - ok let's start recommending this video
Now do that with "Through the Table and Memes".
Thanks for the tutorial,im gonna do that to my table now.
I would love to see a remake of this
I remember watching this when I was a teenager when it GH3 first came out.
I thought this was so cool, and I showed my dad.
He said it was dumb because it made even less sense because he's using a plastic drum thing for a game that's supposed to use a plastic guitar.
Lol
hey link is down, re-up?
just kidding it's been 9 years, midi has come a long way.
I realized my expectations are too high when I went "wtf this isn't an FC"
that is honestly one of the most bad ass things every. you would probably play the real thing. it was also done on a electric drum
dude's double strokes are on point, also why am I here in 2023
Yes.
Holy shit that's crazy, how did you learn that LLRRLLRR drumming pattern and that wild whatever was going on for the green/yellow green/orange green/blue green/yellow tremolo sections?
This man is ascended
This is so much easier than regular guitar hero, you don't even have to hold down the long notes!
The absolute madman
This is beautiful
That's good practice for training your hands to be independant and for speed
impressive dude. slowmos were a nice touch
i can just imagine 2000+ tennis balls shooting out of a machine
classic video
Dude plays ttfaf better on drums then i can on guitar, rip.
Oh.My.Fucking.God. First off,how many Red Bulls did he chug first? Second, how did he breathe? Third, I'm sharing this all over Facebook!! More people need to see this. Just so they can drool. Like I did.
at first I thought the "RRLLLRLLRLRLLR LRLRLRLR " in the annotations was just him making fun of the sound the slowmo made....
This IS insane.
I would laugh so hard seeing someone try doing this doing singles instead of doubles
*Goes into slow motion*
*Misses notes afterwards*
😂 damn this is still cool years later.
brutal ARM TRAINING!!!!
Daaaaamn.
You use wrist strokes or finger strokes for the intro?
Anybody else notice the fact he’s playing the guitar notes on drums?
Parkour Person x10 harder than play with guitar
suchakree laokom true
