Cada portada que hace se supera
Can you do one comparing both covers he did. I think comparing his original cover 2 years ago is a testament to practice 😊
Agreed this one is the first one I would want to listen to for a 3 minute song. I respect his mechanics and technical prowess but at the end of the day, I want to hear good music with a few impressive fills.
Andrew, how would you compare him to the machine gun Chris Turner? I think He has more fun than Chris! But Chris is an absolute machine. Idk how I would rank them
El Estepario Siberiano released a new drum and bass cover - ua-cam.com/video/EiqvfSa8z6M/v-deo.htmlsi=7FthHVht_fRsOtGq
The craziest part about El Estepario Siberiano, is that he makes it look natural. Like everyone should be able to drum like this!
His efficiency of effort is amazing all by itself.
He weirdly makes it look like i can do this. Then he'll hit so many notes i dont the frames keep up
Hi is a drummer on speed. The problem wit him is, that he is to mutch, the speed is to mutch. You can also over paint a room. This is what happens. Sometime so mutch is actually to mutch. And to fast.
Yes..the calm nonchalance of a genius
The dude is truly a circus performer and not practical in any sense. A true freak like a machine gone wrong.
There's beginner level, intermediate level, advanced level, God level and then there's EL ESTEPARIO SIBERIANO LEVEL
His talent, skill and hard work are unmatched, but also unmatched is his total joy playing the drums. What an amazingly fun man to watch!.
He’s changed the game!
@@AndrewRooneyDrumscheck out the bongo song safari duo cover
@@neilberry1552it's ridiculous isn't it
@@timp1390 something else doing the work of two drummers at once
He doesn't have talent, just a mind set of absolute commitment to being the best (his words talent is bullshit). Admire his mindset and advise way more than his skills playing.
I love that he does songs from any genre not only metal.
Yup. Good musos appreciate many styles
Absolutely; his take on The Lights and the bongo song was insane!
Best Drummer I ever heard❤ GREAT Respekt 😊
You mean "kills"?
I've heard that drum machines are envious of this guys impeccable timing and precision.
He's like the Chuck Norris of drumming
A.I. used his videos to learn how to play.
@@davep7589perfect statement to describe him!
@@davep7589 Chuck Norris is the martial artist of this guy. :)
I can't even pat my head and rub my belly at the same time. This man's ability is next to nobody I have heard. Absolute machine. My face is always equal parts delighted and confused/disgusted while watching him....
El Estepario then goes on to pat his head and rub his belly while playing his version of Tom Sawyer while holding his own beer....
Is this real or AI?
Dude, check out Rosetta Stoned by Tool middle of the song. Drummer is Danny Carey. There’s one cover on UA-cam and a full analysis by Drumeo on breaking down Tool Tracks. That is one of the most difficult pieces to play by any drummer. Best of the best. Stefano wouldn’t be able to play a cover of it.
Its limb independence not syncopation.
@@xRuralJuroRx, rub your belly & pat your head, too complicated but I can pull it off. Swimming however is difficult for me doing the kicking while doing arm strokes. I can't fathom how that brain of his even keeps track of all four of his instruments, each one playing the same song but independent of the others.
How he hits that first snare beat timing after the mad fill is almost as impressive as the fill itself.
Omg that snare hit after the fill!
@@randymcdowell3150 it's how he just keeps on going in the groove no matter how difficult the stuff he's doing.
He reminds me of a improv jazz drummer that metals up everything he does while maintaining enough of the pocket to keep it original, but with his own stamp. Dudes a beast
His passion is fusion and jazz so it makes sense!
@@TouchoftheBrushModelWeathering So he would be perfect for a death-metal or power-metal band.
@@TheCyberMantis He was already in a metal band. He left the band to become a better drummer and focus just on drumming instead of creating music. And he is very much a virtuoso because of it.
@@jonathontan4169 If Chuck Schuldiner was still alive, Chuck would be signing this dude, and he would be on the next DEATH album.
Your student is really showing signs of improvement in this video. I think he's starting to get the hang of it.
He has potential.
Just don't get cocky kid!
Super funny!
Great comment lolol😂
😂😂😂
EL ESTEPARIO SIBERIANO, Inspired more drummers to quit than anyone ever!🤔
Digital music has that effect...
,😂😂😂
Thing I love about El Estepario is he puts all these extra hits in but stays perfectly on time with the song, he finds these little cracks and crevices all over to just add more musicality to the drums.
Also, his double bass technique is both flawless and amazing to watch, he's so amazingly consistent.
this dude is why the term "less is more" was invented
He’s literally putting a clinic on with every. Single. Video. Just showing all these different techniques and styles in his own way and it just works. To add to it all, he’s also a super cool and down to earth guy (at least from the videos he’s posted.
@@YourSweatyUncle He's not playing in a band right now, this is a drum "demo", he should be playing the hell out of it.
Muhammad Ali of drumming! He can find any opening and exploit it like no other.
@@YourSweatyUncleHe's drumming for the joy of it all, and interpreting songs however he wants - he can play more traditionally, there is plenty of evidence of this, but sometimes he just likes to show what is possible.
Nothing made me happier to be a guitarist for the last 20 yrs than seeing this dude on drums.... thankfully hes not someone id compare myself too skill-wise... a moment of silence for all the drummers out there that see this and recognize the skill gap 😅
He inspired me to pick up the sticks again and use them as fire wood.. I’m kidding, I’m 36 and been playing since I was 13 and stopped for a few years and after hearing this man play it ignited the flame.
I also started teaching drums to my kids and a few others. I forgot how much I enjoy this instrument.
There are no words to express what this guy is doing. He's beyond everything. Grande, Estepario!! ❤
6:57 that sigh is the perfect way to describe what we've been seeing and hearing.
Even if you're not a drummer, you become exhausted only by watching this.
That was impossibly fast and flawlessly executed. Damn!
This man plays for the sheer joy of playing! He plays for himself and that is why he is so extraordinary! Just love watching his beautiful talent. Great respect 🙏
Andrew, you nailed this video, your comments, your pauses, your silence, your opinions..... I feel you. El Estepario is to drumming what Einstein is to Science.
YES!!! Thanks for watching :)
I think the aspect that you were trying to express with the term "tasty" is what we in Trinidad and Tobago call "sweetness" when playing steel drums. It's about the way the music and/or performance makes us feel, rather than measurable things like technical proficiency or speed. And , frankly, I think it is what makes a piece of music or a performance great to listen to over and over again, or to sing along with, or dance to.
Hello, from Dominican Republic. As a fellow Caribbean, yes tasty and sweetness is what matters the most for us. That's what they miss in so many other places.
Before I even thinkif I can walk on water and realize it's humanly impossible, he's already walking on water. Respect for this man and how humble he is! WOW!
His rolls are dynamic but his feet are another world of tempo
So clean too! 🤯
He's got dual doubling pedals (never seen one IRL, don't know how the switching works). And I understand he built (?) a triple. 😄
I did just see a vid of him going for max speed (he's fighting the return spring) and lets just say... he goes all the way to plaid! 😯
I love how you can feel the respect he has for the original song even while he's being a maniac. Playing that disco hi hat pattern on the kick is just too good.
Yup great orchestration
That disco bit was filthy as fuuuuuu
When I first watched this on his channel my first thought was Andrew has to see this!! I then sent the link to all my friends saying "his best yet". The reason I thought it his best was because it worked so well with the song rather than playing all over it (as he can do). So cool to find you think exactly the same!
This is it, you nailed it.
I love his humility. Yes he’s off the charts talented and confident, but he’s no arsehole.
At first I was nodding my head and thinking "damn, this sounds great". Then I suddenly stopped, as an expression of utter disbelief and amazement developed on my face, and I thought "damn, this is impossible".
This actually brought tears to my eyes. I drummed from age 10 to around 17, makes me feel like a kid again when I was amazed and inspired by the likes of Neil Peart and Ginger Baker.
You should start playing again!
After El Estepario, Neil Who and Ginger Who?
Dude has flipped the drumming world. Devastatingly awesome.
Yes! He's changed the game
We can still kidnap him, delete all his videos and pretend nothing ever happened. 😅
Slipknot best come looking
HE GAVE RSPECT TO THIS SONG- held back when necessary. From his soul. Amazing!
💯👌
That's just incredible. It's really art and passion and fun on the instrument. I think he gets everything out of a drum kit, which is actually not possible. I don't think it's overdone either but he interprets this beautiful song in an incredibly great way. I wish him to always keep his fun in playing.
I follow Estepario since the begenning, and the incredible thing from his vídeos is his joy that causes instantly happiness for drumming community with all those drum feels. God bless you Andrew cause your speech drives to this too. See Ya!!!
He makes everything seem so smooth, no wasted movements everything just awesome
El Estepario Siberiano is a beast. His "norm" SPANKS everyone else's BEAST MODE. And then ... when HE goes Beast Mode ... o.h. m.y. f.u.c.k.i.n.g. G.O.D.!!!!!
The guy's just phenomenal. I cant imagine how anyone would try to put him down. He's just from another planet.
I can't imagine any band in the world that wouldn't want El Espesario as their drummer. Love this guy's groove.
Agree!
He's FORCED every major rock band drummer ALL OVER THE WORLD to "Step up their Game", because this dude is CRAZY GOOD! I don't know if he's on the market and looking for a band, but MAN! If he was, his price would be WHOA!!!
The problem is that he's too good and might not fit in well with other musicians that aren't quite at that level. This guy has to be in a band where everyone is on a similar level, he actually has quite the uphill battle in my opinion. It's kind of like the premise that the most attractive people never get hit on, if that makes sense.
Phenomenal drummer and all round percussion talent however………. You are kidding if you think for a second that the ‘band’ (as a whole) and the studio producer would give this version the thumbs up to be released as a single etc. nb this is not, repeat not, a criticism of El Espesario. It is what it is, a fun and great showcase of his drumming.
Hi , I play this song in an 80s band but El just makes it in a so special way, an unbelievable talent, nobody to touch this guy, bonham is my idol as El is, fantastic drumming
Both great players!
He's more than tasty, he is exquisite. He adds to songs what no other drummer can possibly do or has achieved just absolutely smashes it!
This dude is such an other worldly talent. I laugh and smile every time I see this fella play. Freaking awesome
El Estepario; a joy to watch & listening to . Gives me the goosebumps & eyes watering ; that only talent likes his got , can produced .
Not talent, skill.
It's the second time he's done this song, and some how its even better. The new tone with his latest kit is just *chef's smooch*. Pure excellence. I would put him as the GOAT in my mind!
Theres a fair bit of sampling going on with that drum tone, and its anything but natural. More than likely he has used the mics to capture the transients, which have then been sound replaced/augmented.
This guy can’t be human!!! He’s incredible!!!
Guitar players all feel the same when we watch Shawn Lane. In one of his instructional videos he says a few times “and you can also do it this way” or “you can also do that same pattern and pick every note.”
No. Shawn. No. No WE can’t.
These guys who are obviously coming from a completely different musical space that also make it look SO easy…That is the definition of virtuosity. I’m just happy that we get to witness it.
100%
I love it.
Not intimidated at all. Just enjoying this man's mastery.
100% agree for the musicality. And "so clean" also. He's a human metronome, in any configuration/speed/break/etc. Very, very impressive in slo mo for example.
I wonder how long it takes him to choreograph these covers he does...they are amazing.
The way he plays is so joyful!
What’s so amazing is that he is always RIGHT THERE. Always that solid back beat. Right on no matter what. That it’s his “what?” That’s so amazing. The best. Thanks Andrew.
Kudos to you for not stopping the blasted video every 30 seconds to comment. So many Reacts videos out there that do that and it always has me opening another tab, go out to the video and listen to it first, if I haven't seen it yet. I didn't have to in this video and really I commend you for doing this. Yeah he's the Yngwie on drums on steroids played back at 78 RPM (I showed my age here).
I’m like you. All I can do is laugh and just realize this dude is on his own level. Is he different? Of course. But I think he’s on to something special, and he’s not trying to be the same. Great review boss.
Well said!
Yup I'm just enjoying the ride
He kept the soul of the song, added his personality where he could without making it about him. We are witnesses to history.
Okay, I've been watching El Estepario for long time now and I think it's safe to say at this point. Yes, there are drummer icons, Peart, Portnoy, Bonham, Palmer, Buddy Rich, Moon, BUT...El Estepario is the Eddie Van Halen of drums. Eddie was not only amazing as we all know, he was so innovative that he changed guitar playing forever. I believe that El Estepario is doing and introducing drumming techniques that are so innovative and amazing that he will be seen in that vein of the great drummers of our time.
EES is the Goat! Love the reactions and analysis! cheers!
Appreciate that!
Yeah, that little breakdown he does is so just beyond all levels , insane BONKERS crazy 🤘
it's like he's unlocked the cheat codes for drumming, he's just light years ahead of everyone else. Perhaps Larnell or Grayson could give him some competition but not much...
i agree. its super clean and def works in a song. cool to see him go crazy but love to see how clean he can be also.
Yes it only works because he is so clean!
Didn't they use a drum machine on that track? He's truly a machine! have to add - his transitioning is devastating, it's magical...I am rarely blown away by a musician, I'm a staunch jazz-head, but he's in rare company. I can maybe name 20 or so that are masters of their domain, Jorge's one of them.
Such an original vision and nails it
I found El Estepario Siberiano watching your videos, the first reaction video you did on him actually. And I, like many including you, sat there with my jaw hanging somewhere around my knees. I played some in high school and beyond so I know how difficult what he does is. I really agree with you on this one. A lot of what he does seems a little over the top for his own pleasure, and wouldn't work with the band. I think this one could. The man's a monster (AI... hmm). I had thought I would pick it up again, it is great exercise for the body and coordination as I am over 60 now and I spend a great deal of my time at a desk typing. I think I'll stick to walking and waiting for more videos from the both of you. Thank you!
Definitely pick up some sticks again! My eighty year old great uncle came over from Canada and had a go on my kit, we couldn't get him off the thing for the whole 2 week visit.
Bro your drumming brings tears to my eyes...😅😮phenomenal
Mine too!
The Dali of drums!?! Surrealistic!❤️
It made me cry, he made me realize how much I need to learn. Definitely my respect hands down.
I think this is one of the best, if not the best, drum "cover" he's done so far. For one, he actually plays a decent amount of the song straight. Second, when he goes off and does his thing it's really tasteful and mostly fits the song well. I really liked this one.
Epic. That was great to watch, on my top 20 all times songs and the og video in my top 5 all time music videos. They really pushed the boundaries of what the industry was doing at the time with the video. I highly recommend it to any younger music lover who has never seen it.
Written by a-ha. The studio 🎙 version had programmed drums. As for concert, the most famous drummer for a-ha is Gina Shock. She is fromThe Go-Go's.
I like this live drum track more than the programmed drums: there is personality here. 😃
Oh good info! 👌
Love the shirt brother! Love El Estepario too, man he is a total beast on the drums! Beautiful concepts in that man's head and he has zero problems taking those ideas from his head and putting them into our heads. Such a gift to us all. What a great guy!
This is the fourth time ive watched this video of his. First time watching a react. I think maybe 5 or 7 more times till I'm satisfied lol. so good
🤣🤣👌
Once again, fantastic reaction!! Love it when you watch him. And your commentary is second to none!!! Oh AND you community post are hilarious! 🤣🤣🤣
I saw in another video where he switched his hats hand to scratch his nose with his right hand and didn’t miss. Even little things like that amaze me
I love watching him play. Just the passion and joy he gets not just from playing from the song.
It's like when you hear an awesome song when you are driving then you realize you are driving way too fast lol
That's one of my favorite qualities of his videos. Yes, he is supremely talented. But his obvious love for what he's doing is just as enjoyable to witness.
The thing to think when watching El is simply "Dude, entertain me!" and he will never disappoint, and you can just enjoy.
i saw the original vid when it came out, loved it-(it's one of my fav songs🥰) (and yes im a metalhead and yes i still love a-ha). Anyway, is it flashy and a bit of showmanship? yes. of course. But its also still musical and fun. You can tell he really appreciates the original song and he's having a blast. Love El Estepario ❤ (ps, if you havent checked out his previous band its great-its not english but the music comes thru)
dude sold his soul at the crossroads.
Like F wow.😭
Yup! haha
1:35 Bro. You’re edits with the adlibs are friggin awesome!!
HAHAHA! Thank you for watching
That's what she said!
Adlibs are silly, it makes this channel look and sound immature.
man alive if you released that version today im sure it would be a hit again and all that with such little kit awesome how he works that floor tom is phenomenal and his double bass am not into that usually but man he gets it right i would love to know how many versions he did before he finished with what we seen here i bet its quite a few lol
"Its not what you play but what you dont play" Estepario: "i'll hold my own beer"
I have played drums for 40 years and he is the first drummer to inspire me in decades. This is the first time I have thought a part was a little busy though.
He is unbelievable and amazing. I'd love to see him do a buddy rich style solo.
Yeah that'd be cool. Jazz solo
Isn’t he an absolutely insanely talented drummer. I’ve not seen better.
He's the guy!
Depends on how you define better, but I couldn't imagine any or my favourite songs sounding better with him at the drums...
Sure he's a skilled drummer, but it is always overplaying. Too much. Like a guitar player doing a solo for the entire song.
This guys performances gives me goosebumps!!!!
Pure awesomeness 👌, best drummer in the world bar none
Mind blowin'. Every video he makes makes me smile and every video by drum channels that feature him are much like this one. Disbelief, WTF, I give up > gonna work harder, respect but above all a joy to listen to and watch.
He's an animal. But I have always loved that, no matter how busy he gets, it's tasty to me. I think he's just engineered for drums. I adore his style.
He's the best!
When you dedicated your entire life to your most loved thing to do in this world and at some point in your life you were so convinced and believed that you and drumming are destined and meant to be, meanwhile you never knew El Estepario exists. 😅
LOL
He has spent lot of time practicing to hone his remarkable drumming skills but it is not as simple as this.
There is a video on his UA-cam channel where he explains all the ups and downs of his life and what lead him to where is today.
I love how all the drummers reacting to his videos can say his name perfectly now. So cool to see
That's true!
Down below someone said, "I've heard that drum machines are envious!" Good one! Hilarious!! 🤣
🤣👌
You'd think you'd get used to this level of skill and yet every song he drums up is mind-blowing. This is not at all a knock with such an enjoyable performance but was a pretty aggressive take for a relatively mellow tune. First-time visitor to Mr. Rooney's channel- he's a natural-born critiqueologist.
Yeah it’s very drumcentric but I dig! 🤘
I'm waiting for his drumsticks to catch on fire, This guy came out of nowhere and is dominating the drum world
Your silence as you gathered your emotions and thoughts back together said as much as your review of the experience afterwards.
You know those weightlifters that put an extra 60 Kilos on the bar after everyone else can't handle another Gramm? He's the drumming version of that. To do the near impossible, to raise the bar to unbelievable heights, to teach the professors something new. That is what pushes mankind to excell. That is what the 3,5 million followers come for. To see an Olympian at work.
He's exceptional! The best!
🖖🏻🇫🇷😎🇫🇷😎🇫🇷🖖🏻
👌
He has mastered the drums. There is no one nearly as close to the things he can do while smiling like a high ass donkey and rip your face off. Sure he doesn't have a gig right now but the things he does are otherwordly. He is an inspiration for all of us. Long live EES!
The Estepario Siberiano should make a collab with the Slo-Mo Guys.... I think we all would learn a lot
I love all the comments about how its "too busy" or "its too fast" or "it just a spectacle". Or my favorite..."his fills are out of the pocket". Lol thats the point!!! He pushes the limits of what can fit into the track! Unless youre a seasoned drummer you wont truly understand what makes it so good.
Awesome. Taking what should be a relatively simple tune and messing around like this, it really improves your playing approach, on any instrument, but this is just crazy good and fun.
Rock on!
El Estepario's drumming is a combination of athletics, mathematics, rudiments, and Zen. I weep tears of joy watching his drumming. Like it is just not humanly possible. I would compare it to a person being blind for 50 years and then being given sight in full color. And he just says "practice". Not quite my friend. There's some divine intervention going on in there. a spiritial gift has found it's fertile destination. horaaah! And he's young.
He out works us :)
Work is not mindless hours. He’s engaged.
That’s very draining
El Estepario is simply mesmerising - whats not to love.
Incredible drummer he is, no doubt! Estepario is the beast of drumming. I'd love to see what he could do with a band of like-skilled/minded/spirited musicians. Thanks for sharing your thoughts and Estepario's phenom playing.
He's a fantastic drummer. That said, during the breakdowns, silence is golden. Meaning, play, but allow the parts that are important to shine through. As good as he is, there's too much technical showoff. In these videos he doesn't give a shit and will go all out, but in a band setting, where there are other players involved, this would not fly.
Precisely.
I was wondering how he would perform in a band.
Skills are impressive but music is not about how fast you perform.
@@daiblaze1396 He did. He simply left it to grow his UA-cam channel and work solomío...ua-cam.com/video/ScwU6ALc1hY/v-deo.html
Yes, but that's kind of missing the point - you can find a hundred videos of drummers playing in the pocket or 'correctly' with a few thousand views, you get 2 million followers by being completely over the top
Very true and he works it extremely well. Solo is one thing, band is another. Nothing wrong with either approach, it was just an observation. It's all really a matter of taste, just like grandma's lasagna.@@Veaseify
He really does leave us speechless. Incredible his obsessive dedication to fine art.
I could watch him all day and not get bored. His talent is immense.
It’s just his speed that blows me away.
His secret? Practice 8h a day!! Respect ❤
I love how open he is.
The secret is there is no secret.
30 hours a day, 10 days a week ,
What’s the next level past the level three levels above virtuoso? Dude is truly superhuman and having a blast doing it. Friggin awesome!!
Superhuman alright
@8:15 well said! Those were feelings I picked up on, as in; He’s not creating something new like a metal fusion genre or anything, he’s PLAYING 80’S POP better than anyone could have dreamed or imagined.
I love him and and totally impressed by his drumming skills. At the time, if the drummer played all that while performing that song I’d want to throw something. 😂
You know Your drums and coffee mug, well how much coffee does he have before playing 😂
And you're right, it does absolutely work and not once was i distracted from the actual song even though being in awe of his playing
