-Erick Moore
Niesser C. Base on ur list ur not a rock guy
Max Kellerman that’s right
These drummers really inspire me; Travis Barker, Josh Dun, Aaron Gillespie, and Chad Smith
I started learning drums when I was around 8 or 9. I am now 12, almost 13 and I love drumming so much, when I come home from a stressful day its soo good to take your anger out through drumming - its an amazing outlet, transforming built up negative emotion into cool sounds. I gotta hand it to my first drumming teacher: Gareth Hughes. He was so damn cool. I learned so much from him and in quarantine there’s so much spare time so I can play the drums a lot more now! I just wanna say that your channel is really neat. Keep up the cool vids man!
Mark Portnoy and Travis Barker are two of my most favourite drummers at the moment. I love their way of drumming and listening to them instantly gives me energy to get behind the kit.
So glad to see Darren King getting recognition. Soooooo underrated. Inventive, Innovation, Disciplined playing. He doesn't get enough praise. Also nice to see another drummer that shares the same first name as me :) cheers dude. Great vid.
I've seen many legend drummers but you are the drummer that influenced me the most
That is very kind 🙏🏽
You encouraged me to look for best skills of my favourite drummers that I’d like to have. Thank u so much Gabe😀 You’re my hero🥲 🇵🇱🥁
These are my drum heroes
Ben Thatcher
Art Blakey
Joe Morello
Benny Greb
Steve Gadd
Great choice. Never heard of Ben Thatcher though. Who has he played with? Love Blakey
@@robertnettleship5467 he's a rock drummer for Royal Blood. He's pretty creative on his drum parts
Thatcher is the man!
Amazing to see who influenced you! Influence and legacy is all about getting others to get into drumming, and it's so satisfying and important! Awesome and informative!
I totally agree! It's crazy that these drummers most likely won't know how great of an impact they have had on me!
@@DrumBeatsOnline That's insane! For one to influence another is such a wonderful thing!
Marcus Gilmore....new entry on my list...his performance on Zildjian LIVE! blew me away and made me realize I needed to completely rethink how I used my cymbals and how I approached drumming in general
I love all of these drummers!!
Heck yes!
My two drummers who keep me playing push me and inspire me are travis barker and joshua dun they both are amazing and the energy they have is amazing
Gabe you are the best all these drummers awesome Especially you you are great man love from kerala
I remember listening to Benny for the first time, he hit a tom noticeably off-grid and it instantly gave the groove color and a depth I've never imagined drums could have, my eyes were opened. Benny is a monster.
Yeah he’s awesome, one of my favs for sure how could you not like him
OMG NO WAY!... in the video at 7:15 when you began to talk about Darren King, i saw that drum setup and knew exactly what it was for. kept listening and knew exactly what he was playing. because i was in the commercial with him! i was the person who was dancing in the commercial Seth Dunlap made! i couldnt believe it when i saw it in your video! good stuff and keep up the good work!
So cool to see Darren mentioned. He's so brilliant in subtle ways. Aaron's style is super fun lol
I also love Jonathan moffet the original drummer of micheal Jackson 💥✨🥁
Ol' shugarfoot!!!
its jonathan "sugahfoot" moffet
@@somerandomguy8725 okay sugah
Gabe opened the insight into how I can improve and broaden my drumming skills!! I'm 200% serious!!!
That means the world, thank you for sharing!
Some of mine are (there are many more):
Matt Cameron from Soundgarden/PJ
Yuri Ruley from MxPX
Ian Paice from Deep Purple
Morgan Rose from Sevendust
Vinnie Appice from Dio/Black Sabbath
Many more influences from outside the rock genre but these were the first ones to come to mind immediately
My list is actually very similar to yours. Your first 3 were BIG influencers for me. However, after Matt Greiner(August Burns Red), I started listening to Between the Buried and Me. I discovered Blake Richardson from them, and he is absolutely amazing! Also when I was younger I listened to a lot of Atreyu(drummer Brandon Saller), The Devil Wears Prada(drummer Daniel Williams), and All that Remains(drummer Jason Costa). All very awesome drummers that helped me along my journey with drums.
I love your videos!
Thanks so much David!
I think you narrowed all my drummers too. Another great inspiration for me was Lester Estellw Jr. From Pillar. And Carter Beauford from Dave Mathews
Frontline.
WoW that was Awesome👌🔥
You’ve been one of my biggest influences! Great video👍
Thanks George!
Drum Beats Online saw you reply to this on ur ig story - so cool😂👌
Benny Greb is an absolute beast, and wow, I totally forgot about Mute Math!
One of my influences growing up was Ted Kirkpatrick of Tourniquet. He basically wrote songs based off of the drums.
I had the pleasure of being darrens kit with 2 gloves. He is the King!
My 5
- John Otto (groove composition)
- Mike Portnoy (creativity)
- Jojo Mayer (everything drumming and philosophically 😉 )
- Darren King (power, looseness, minimalism)
- Youssef Dajes ( Stylewise, groove, time)
Honorable mentions
- Chris Coleman
- José Pasillas (incubus)
- Dave Grohl
- John Bonham
- Vinnie Colaiuta
- Dave Weckl
- Steve Gadd
- Rick Latham
I was fixated on metal and metal drumming for quite a while but when I discovered Larnell Lewis my learning curve spiked. His ability to quickly learn and interpret music from a simple sheet guide and deliver a masterpiece is mind blowing. Check him out on the album We Like it Here. He learned that entire album under 24 hours.
For the moment I would say my 2 drum teachers I had this far. Playing for a bit more than a year in total now. And I basically only practice technique and rudiments. I know a lot of people start by playing songs, but I don´t really like to do that yet. Feel happy with my singels, doubles, paradiddles and so on.
I don’t play enough yet to say who influences my style (lol I don’t have one yet)....but early on I became aware of Buddy Rich....and I always love to hear and watch Tris Imboden’s drum solos. I am now beginning to pay attention to Tommy Igoe, Stuart Copeland.... I love anything Drum Corps and I am inspired by the creativity and talent of Eric Carr from EMC Productions. I love Casey Cooper’s energy and pure joy. I love Senri Kawaguchi and many of the girls out there...Oh yeah! Dorothea Taylor is another great inspiration! I am inspired by the wonderful drumming community on you tube and I am now a lifetime member of Drumeo. The internet has really had a great impact!
thanks to talk about Darren King, he and Mutemath are totally incredible. What an influence for me as a drummer
The man who inspired me to get back into it was Adam gilbert from starset. He may not be the greatest but, I caught his drumstick at a concert, and just listening and watching him play with the energy and clear love for it is just so fun
I love Matt Greiner, it is just fun listening to him and he always pulls out antoher beat you didnt hear before
So happy to see Darren King on this vid. Easily my all time favorite
For me it was Shawn Crowder, Larry Mollen Jr, the jazz band drummer my freshman year, and you. In all of those people you are the one who drives me to practice the most which has been the most amazing thing in my drumming
I love it when you say "hello my beautiful friends."
I'm just speaking the truth!
Dude absolutely loved this one! Btw I hear you with that Tigerblood Jewel in the background.
So glad you liked it!! Haha guilty!
I was kinda surprised when u started talking bout Benny Greb. I already knew his song couscous. It's literally the first song in the seventh grade of trinity college London. And I am currently a 7th grader (in drums & school). He is one of my personal favorites
buena viejo! que entrete video!
Dude Matt Greiner is definitely one of my all time faves
Ok. I can say these are my favorite drummers at all times.
Steve Gadd
Dave Weckl
Thomas Lang
Tony Royster Jr.
Sarah Thawer
Anika Niles
Sonny Emory
Ian Paige
Chad Smith
Robert Spur Searight
Great video man. For me, Danny Carey changed my life, I love his style and creativity he brings to the drums
I hear that!
👏👏👏👏 Nice 🔥🔥
They are my inspirations To.
Matt McGuire made a drum cover on ludens by bmth and in the bridge part of the song, he's just so crazy good and what he played was what I wish I could play. When I watch that part, it inspires me and I want to get better and learn and grow farther into the drums so I can be able to play that good!!
Benny Greb brought me to the drums. Hes german (for those who dosent know).
So when i was a kid, he came to our small music school. He was not that famous at the time, so he was performing for free. It was very quiet when he played. All kids where just listening. After that, he answered every question and was so kind at all.
A few weeks later i started drumming.
My favorites drummers are:
Chris Coleman, Larnell Lewis, Benny Greb, JP Bouvet and Jojo Mayer. There some others like Anika Nilles, Illan Rubin, Sput Searight, Tony Royster Jr, Matt Garstka, Mike Johnston, Juan Carlito Mendoza and Jost Nickel.
Hi Gabe, I had not heard of some of the drummers you mentioned. I knew of Travis Barker - I saw him playing on a platform up in the air during which a fight broke out. And I knew of Benny Grebb & even bought his DVD re a drumming language. I was in awe of his technique, skill and the respect other drummers showed him. But I was not good enough to really make use of his comments/playing. I felt I was 6 years old and talking to Plato. All the best. Owen Brown - Australia
In chronological order:
- Travis Barker
- Dave Grohl
- Danny Carey
- Matt Halpern
- Matt Garstka
Could not agree more!
Hi Gabe your videos are awesome . I want to ask a suggestion from you . I am looking forward to buy double bass pedal . So which would you recommend me chain drive or belt drive . Look forward to hear from you . Regards
Love Darren King bro. Very underapreciated!
1: Jen Ledger (got me playing drums)
2: Gabe Helguera (has influenced the way I play drums mostly)
3: Steve Carey (he’s a sick drummer and super energetic)
4: Vinny Mauro (I love his playing)
My favorite drummer is definitely Benny Greb since my dad showed me the language of drumming!
great videos, and great influences! can i ask which mic do you use for your voice? sory it has nothing to do, but the sound is great and i need to buy one, also i am from Argentina. Perhaps if you could give me some choices :) thanks a lot!
I worked at Memphis Drum Shop for a 3 and a half year period and had the pleasure of meeting some great drummers. Got to meet Aaron Gillespie when he was touring with paramore. He sat down in the cymbal vault to try some Istanbul cymbals and the power that came out was wild to see from a 10 foot distance. He was super kind and even took a photo with me. I also got the chance to meet Benny Greb at a clinic he did at the drum shop and he was so kind and he put on a show that has stuck with me and how I approach my playing. Gabe if you ever have a chance after the pandemic to see Memphis Drum Shop, do it. They’ll bring you in and show you around and have you do some My Cymbal videos which are super fun to do and also you may get to play some Pearl kits for the site as well. Cheers!
That is so cool! What an awesome experience that must have been!
I've never been there but you are certainly making me want to stop by now!!
Some of my favorite drummers of all time!
* Scott Raynor
* Ringo Starr
* Tré Cool
* Chad Smith
* Dennis Chambers
There's a lot of drummers that inspired me from band drummers, session drummers, and youtubers..... youtube drummers has a special place in my heart! Casey cooper was the first drummer that inspired me when i was 9 yrs old i'm 14 now and throughout the years of watching youtube videos,free lessons, drum covers, other famous band drummers and many more i think i really love drumming soo much and will still work hard for that big dream

3. A random guy called gabe?
4. Tones more as I love so many genres and styles
Ringo Starr, Travis Barker, Luke Holland, Ilan Rubin, Chad Smith. Notable mentions are Carter Beauford and Jack Bevan
I think I got inspired by who I thought would make me a more well rounded drummer starting with rock then figuring out different sub genres. As a 90s kid with no youtube, exploration was difficult, listening more than watching new material.
1)Mitch Mitchell- rock/jazz
2)Dave Grohl- hard rock
3) Tre Cool - punk
4) Neil Peart- Mandatory learning
5) Carter Beauford - fusion
6) Tony Williams - jazz
7) David Garbaldi - Funk
8) Chad Smith - funk rock
9) Matt Cameron - time signatures
10) Chris Adler - dbl bass/metal
11) Matt Halpern - polyrhythms
12) Tony Allen - Afrobeat
Holy crap, Gabe. Such sick playing man! My biggest influence was Cobus Potgieter when I was a teenager. It blew my mind at how good I thought he was at the time. Huge influences now would be Larnell Lewis, Benny Greb, Lenny 'The Ox" Reece and all the UA-cam guys! So you, Adam Tuminaro, Juan Carlito Mendoza etc
Love that! It's so interesting how influences can change over time!
Ive been drumming for about 2 and a 1/2 years and i have to say my fav drummers in order are.
3. Sam Loeffler
2. Mike portnoy
1. Lars Ulrich
Well, 99.9% it's about you, your dedication, will power and your determination. Even if you don't have any influence it's fine. But, your dedication to your craft is the material which will take you to next level of drumming. I love you Gabe, you're ridiculously awesome 🤘long live I prevail
Great list, man!
My list is ...
Travis Barker (Blink 182/BCR/+44 and others)
Adrian Young (No Doubt/Dreamcar)
Jose Parsillas (Incubus)
Ilan Rubin (NIN/AVA/FenixTX and others)
Atom Willard (Offspring/AVA and others)
This has got me thinking! I'm gonna go with:
1. Josh Eppard: Coheed and Cambria
2. Derek Grant: Alkaline Trio
3. Aquiles Priester: Angra
4. Moe Carlson: Protest The Hero
5. Shannon Lucas: The Black Dahlia Murder
I might have to make a video for this!
Love it!

I like a lot of drummers: Benny Greb, Dave Weckl, Carter McLean, Virgil Donatti, Steve Smith, Gavin Harrizon, Dave DiCenso, Bonzo, Yoni Madar, Horacio Hernandez, Steven Adler ( He is the reason why I play Drums); Billy Cobham, Terry Bozzio, Bill Brufford, Buddy Rich, Jimmy Chamberlain, Pancho Molina, Thomas Lang, Marco Ianetta, Carlos Mendoza, Charly Alberty , Simon Phillips; Carter Beauford, Jared Falked has advance a lot this couple of years, Marco Minneman, Dennis Chambers, Jo Jo Mayer, I actually love RdavidR groovie playing man , etc.....Greetings from Chile 🇨🇱
Love it dude!
I'm up there with you how Aaron Gillespie and Matt Greiner shaped my playing.
But other drummers are Matt Garstka, Luke Holland, Jimmy The Rev Sullivan and you lol
Continue to release vids on cool fills and grooves bro!
I hear you! Those are some great drummers!
Good List! Idk how I feel about Benny. I mean much support to any drummer but haven't seen him do anything that set him apart yet.
Peter Erskine, Joe Morello, Papa Jo Jones, Steve Gadd, Mark Guiliana, Benny Greb, Topper Headon, Stephen Morris.... The list goes on.
My influences are
Lars Ulrich, stamina and he is why I am a drummer today.
The rev, besides skill and speed, he is why I got back I to it after a break. He reinvigorated me.
Neal peart. For overall skill and composition.
Stewart Copeland for technical and creativity.
Travis Barker for the obvious speed and precision.
Finally, myself. For longevity:)
Matt is a beast!
Keith Moon (The Who)
- Play with the band, his playing just fit the music so well.
- Listening to him made the drums seem fun to play.
Dave Lombardo (Slayer)
- Groove, every song has a groove and feel. Got to keep even the longest songs interesting, engaging and dynamic.
Travis Barker (Blink-182)
- Energy, audibly and visually
- Creativity
Sunny Jung (local drum legend)
- Taught me to play as simple as possible, it’s better to nail something easy than to fail in over complicating and disrupt the song. Most people won’t know the difference if you play a part slightly different than the original
- Taught me to play with power, confidence and to be a professional.
Gabe Helguera
- I’m currently waiting for DBO Academy to open. Watched a lot of his videos, so helpful in my progression and growth as a drummer.
U are my influencer I love your drumming style love from India🙂
🙏🏽 Thanks for the kind words!
5:42 ,OMG I thought how comes Alex from "All time low"
Awesome upload.....great list of drummers (some of my influences as well). Growing up with Christian rock....Petra's Louie Weaver was one of my earlier influences and Ted Kirkpatrick of the band Tourniquet was another one. Your drumming and editing skills are top notch!
It's always awesome to share influences with other drummers!
Louie Weaver was a huge influence of mine early on and still is today. I bought my first drum set on Jan. 21, 1984 and saw Petra live for the first time 2 weeks later on Feb. 4, 1984 on the Not of this World tour in Tulsa, OK. I lived in Oklahoma City and they played 2 concerts the same night in March of 1984, which I attended both. My all time favorite song by Petra to this day, is still Blinded Eyes. I love that guitar riff. They played it in Tulsa but not in OKC. Oh well, at least I heard it live once. I got to meet Louie and talk to him on 3 separate occasions. He was always a cool dude.
When Petra reunited back in 2013 or 14, I drove down to to Dallas, Tx. and saw them play at a church. It was Greg Volz, Bob Hartman, Mark Kelly, John Lawry, and Louie Weaver..
They sounded every bit as good as they did in the early Eighties. Greg Volz's voice was as good as it ever was. They were just as good in that Church as they were in an 18,000 seat arena. There were about 400 people there, most over the age of 40. After the show, all 5 guys were at the autograph table signing autographs. They all seemed grateful that after all these years, fans would still come out and here them play. They were all a class act, on stage and off. And Yes, Louie was wearing a Mickey Mouse tank top. I wore a Mickey Mouse T-Shirt so he would know I was a drummer and a fan. After all these years, I'm still a drummer and a BIG fan of Mr. Louie Weaver.
@@ldcsam1 very cool!
My favorite drummer is Gabe
, He's speed
Groove
Accuracy
and the creativity it so awesome👌
You are very kind! ❤️❤️
I'm curious I thought me a lot of things ,n I am a drummer like u❤️👌
You should listen too Yussef Dayes. Mind blowing technicality with a locked in feel that grooves and thumps.
A few of my main drumming influences have been:
Larnell Lewis
Benny Greb
Simon Phillips
Jeff Porcaro
Cobus Potgieter
Chris Coleman
David Garibaldi
Eric Moore
Of course when it comes to drum fills I love Gabe
❤️❤️
I have always been a huge Arron Gillespie fan. Influenced my playing more than any. I saw you play Halloween last year and dude, you are right up there with my favorite drummers. I was super impressed by your energy and skill. Also, I started watching your videos not knowing you were the I prevail drummer!😂 I was pleasantly surprised
Oh man that's awesome! So glad you got to catch a live show!!
Drum Beats Online I took my wife to go see a day to remember and came away with a new favorite band! 👍🏻
Gabe, you are one of my five !
🙏🏽🙏🏽
One of my all time faves is Paramore's Zac Farro. In songs like Careful, Decode and Feeling Sorry he absolutely slays it in his own quirky and creative ways
Absolutely! His such a good rock drummer
i realy like chad szeliga (former breaking benjamin). so creativ and great. had a huge influence on my drumming.
Dude that guys playing is so flowing but still hits hard. Amazing. He plays with black label society now i believe
Patrick Brandsma
so true, he knows how to play to a song. he‘s not anymore with black lable but with black star riders. unfortunally this is not my style of music.
Can you review the REV from A7X. RIP but I would like to hear what you think of some of his crazy Hip hop to metal
for me benny is the absolute best, he's very unique and musical, not only just a display of technical abilities but combining them all to be one of the most musical drummers, dojo mayer is another one that comes to my mind
Look the Timothy Molloy of Our Last Night. 'Dark Storms , I've never felt this way' This man is so underrated
Back again bro 👍
Oh yes!
You should check out Dan Mayo. He’s been touring with Mike Shinoda since 2018, which is why I “discovered” him. He creates very experimental, atmospheric beats and plays ‘em with such passion, it’s mind blowing.
I've been following him on instagram for years and spent some time with him at NAMM. I agree, his drumming is incredible!
Darren King is incredible. I'm not a big mutemath fan but he's incredible
Crazy that I haven't seen much love for Jojo Mayer in the comments, he's phenomenal. Both him and Benny Greb always inspire me when I see/hear them play.
-Andy Harrison
-Casey Cooper
-Luke Anderson
-Vincent Baynard
-El Estepario Siberano
-Jonathan Muffet (Sugarfoot)
hey Vincent Baynard!! I thought I was the only one lol
He is my favourite worship Drummer hhaha
My top 5, in no particular order :
- Elvin Jones
- Stewart Copeland
- Tony Williams
- Vinnie Coliuta
- John Bonham
