man after seven years of watching you and eventually landing on jazz as my primary drum passion, i never expected you to also go a jazz direction with drums so this is mega sick
Hey Dex you have the skill,the rhythm and the Looks!!One day these other Band members will be sitting in the audience watching you, and YOUR Band Play in Bigtime Venue!!
Hi Dex ........I am a big fan .........saw you grow playing the drums ....I am glad you are back .......thanks for all of your years watching you grow.......
Omg i literally could never stop watching your covers. Even though , I’m not a good drummer, I still managed to follow along and play. You are so talented and I think you keep doing some covers. ❤️there amazing!!!
I don't know whether or not you've heard of a swing jazz drummer named Shelly Manne. Your style resembles the West Coast swing sub-genre which Shelly made his own. He died about 40 yrs ago, but I heard him play quite a few times during the 70s, and I hear echoes of his cool, understated form of drumming across your set featured on this video. In the 70s he played in a jazz quartet, the LA Four. You might enjoy the band's eponymous first studio album which came out in 1976, or the recording of their live concert of 74 and entitled The LA Four Score. Both recordings are on the Concord Jazz label. I'd like to know whether you recognise your sound in Shelly's playing. Btw, he always played on Leedy drum kits and had a bit of a phobia about playing on any other brand of drum!
Awesome performance as usual! By the way, it would be amazing if you could cover any song from the Silk Sonic album! I would love to see you covering Anderson .Paak's drumming and I think the result would be great!
@@LuchoPiastri lmao i’m not begging him to play anything, i simply asked. of course he should play what he likes, i’m just saying that he would possibly get more views and people usually enjoy rock covers more than jazz. chill😭
@@luluthedrummer “he would possibly get more views” that’s what makes my blood boil. Been there, done that. It takes away the passion for music when you start thinking about statistics more than enjoying what you are playing. It becomes like a job. A boring job.
@@LuchoPiastri i understand what ur saying but it would be good if he varies the type of music he plays; i've been following dex for about 4 years now and i know he has so much potential. it would be nice to see him play heavier stuff because it's usually more complex than pop music and has more interesting drum parts. music nowadays is so repetitive and made electronically so it doesn't have that same vibe. now he can carry on playing pop songs, i won't be mad cuz i'm just giving a suggestion, it's not as if he's even gonna take my advice anyway. all i said was that rock songs like some metallica or acdc usually approach a wider audience. maybe he's not really concerned about the amount of views he gets due to how successful he already is, that's fine. anyways now that he's 16 i'm sure he chooses the songs he likes to play. in my opinion it's just more fascinating to see someone play heavy metal cuz that's where "real" drumming comes in, especially for a teenager it's unique
@@LuchoPiastri also he's got over 1M views, are fans not allowed to request songs? u should expect it and it's always nice when creators give their viewers what they would like to hear. not saying he should always listen to the fans, especially if he doesn't like the idea or something. and i wasn't demanding, i asked politely and said that i would like to hear something different, it would be very rude for me to demand. there are some youtubers that don't acknowledge that they have a huge following and i like it when they have some sort of interaction with their community cuz that shows how important it is to them. i've seen dexter replying to people's requests before so it's not even a big deal
This is so good! Just wanted to ask could you do a cover of a song called sunkissing by Hailee Steinfeld? It came out earlier today and I love the drums in it

So true 😂😂
This is kinda awesome 👍
Do all these people know that there is a legend on the drums? Awesome as always Dex!
Hopefully they know him for who he is not for his presence on UA-cam and hopefully they appreciate his drumming skills.
@@DlutheranI go to to school with him and hes an amazing guy!
The rest of the band: so serious
Dex: jamming in the back of the room
Awsome job Dex! its sounds great and I love the style of your hair!
its crazy to see how much older you are now. You havent posted in a while, i hope all is well

Hey Dex, nice video!
I have a question about your drum covers. How do you know what music you can use? So because of licenses, copyrights and so on.

He’s a kid, he should play what he likes, not what people demand
