It's a shame the great jazz drummers from way back who are not with us anymore are not around today to enjoy this guy.. I'm sure they all are smiling and applauding him on!
I never get tired of watching anything Dylan Elise does on the drums. He's so ridiculously talented. I admit however that I don't watch his "career" on a regular basis so I don't know how things are going for him in recent days, but I truly hope he's gained the success that he deserves. Anyone who has dedicated that much time and work into their craft deserves that success, if that is what they desire, at any rate.
I think this guy is a blast to watch and listen to. I also have a hunch he has performed this routine without any "mistakes" which further blows my mind
New Zealand should be so proud to have a musician of this calibre in their midst. What a talent. I hope his career takes him to the world because he deserves it. To compare him with others is pointless. His skills are his own and his style will develop into a unique player. He is still quite young after all..... Pay no attention to the ever-present knockers. This guy has the goods and we should all be wishing him well. End of my rant....
Amazing. Even thought Steve Smith, Buddy Rich and Art Blakey all did these same tricks, as many of you have stated, it does not make this performance any less remarkable. All musicians are a product of their influences, as Frank Zappa once said, "The last guys to make truly original music wore wigs and stockings." This kid is TUFF!!!
i can t imagine how much practise he invested in his skills. on top a unbelieveble talent, i guess lot of disciplin and the result is ? a world class drummer. and when its look easy and relaxed than we have a fact more that he is out of this world. my biggest respect.
Yeah, some of the tricks have been done, but Dylan takes it to the next level. If you have anything negative to say, you obviously don't know what you are taking about :)
Alot of the backlash comes from jealousy....very sad.👎 Personally I'd rather take the time to listen and learn what he does than give him the backlash. Dylan is an amazing drummer and many of us could learn from what he and other pro drummers do. Drum on people.😀
The best and finest drummer I ever saw play drums with his band was without doubt the greatest drummer in the history of drumming,I am talking about the great American jazz drummer Mr Buddy Rich and his big band that used to tour the world.I first saw Buddy Rich in the 1970's nobody could compete with Buddy he was the best. This young man Mr Dylan Elise reminds me of Buddy Rich,I shall be watching Dylan work with great interest.
Jo Jones did this at some drum forum years ago. Max Roach and Ed Thigpen followed suit. Steve Smith and now this guy are carrying the torch for all of us Jazz inspired Diaspora.
Dylan is a groove monster, this is what it’s all about, if you can’t get people to move to your playing, what’s the point. It all started in Africa and let’s keep that way. Love this dude, and he’s just having fun with the highhat, all youngsters should try to emulate Dylan, a true badass.🖖
Just awesome. These types of drummers let other drummers know there are so many ways to progress and ideas to form. And come up with some amazing original ways to play. Thinking outside the kit
He was also at The WORLD YOUTH JAZZ FESTIVAL (WYJF) 2013 in Kuala Lumpur, MALAYSIA from 3 to 5 May 2013. SORAK!!! Brought both times to Malaysia by WORLD YOUTH FESTIVALS MANAGEMENT SDN BHD. SORAK!!!
Man anybody who said Steve Smith and buddy rich did anything close to this is just jealous, I am a drummer myself and have watched both those guys my whole life. They paved the way but dylan elise is another level I'm proud to be an American but he is the best hands down nobody is quicker not Thomas lang, Chris Coleman both great but not on his level. Nobody can keep a beat and juggle sticks the way he does Steve smith, buddy rich, Thomas lang, Chris Coleman not quite.
Jonathan Miller absolutely I’m sure if he was marketing himself like lang, I would think those that have a brain would instantly give him the accolades he deserves 🖖
It's a shame the great jazz drummers from way back who are not with us anymore are not around today to enjoy this guy.. I'm sure they all are smiling and applauding him on!
I was there watching him play. It blew my mind

Thank you Dylan your fantastic one of a kind brother..God Bless...
he is my favorite drummer..
there are a million incredible drummers out there but this guy has a way of rising to the top...
I saw this guy recently (March 2014) he was the drummer for Blood Sweat & Tears and he did this solo....Crowd went nuts.
This guy is on a whole other level.. Amazing
as a drummer, this is just a ton of fun to watch and enjoy with him. Thank you!
his hand eye coordination is alien
Super craziness. Dylan’s skill level is exceptional.
I think this guy is a blast to watch and listen to. I also have a hunch he has performed this routine without any "mistakes" which further blows my mind
He's better than me on just a hi hat than I am on my whole kit.
I 6uiuh
wiggity08 HAHA😂😂😂😂😂😂 fuk my life dat was funny as 😂😂😂😂

Agree. All musicians are a product of their influences. This kid is remarkable and it will be exiting to see how far he takes it.
I'm sure he's a national hero.
oldludwig good rant Joe, he is very sharp
Agreed!
oldludwig. I think he's Samoan...but a New Zealand citizen living most of his life in New Zealand.

why isnt this young man famous?? he should be...he has some serious skills...
He came to my school four years ago, he was so fun to watch! I got to hang out with him afterwards as well which was pretty cool
Great Job on the Hi Hat Solo !
I just love watching Dylan
An amazing gifted talented musician
great job my man! love the chrome tamas beautiful!

I am starting to believe that this guy might be the most skilled drummer of all time
Buddy rich reborn
Pareillement
One of the best!
Ahhh!! My drug of choice!! I loveeeee watching this man!!!!! So mesmerizing 😍
I like the videos where he drops a stick and keeps on smiling almost as much as I like the videos of when he plays it perfectly.
i can t imagine how much practise he invested in his skills. on top a unbelieveble talent, i guess lot of disciplin and the result is ? a world class drummer. and when its look easy and relaxed than we have a fact more that he is out of this world. my biggest respect.
Greatest drummer and magician! There has not been anyone greater than him. I'm one of your biggest fans! Bravo! You are the master!
Look up Steve Smith and his hi hat solos. This is exactly where this is from
I've never seen an all hi-hat solo before. This kid is just beyond amazing.
lol his not a kid
Steve Smith does it since this guy wasn't even born
Steve Williams so?buddy rich,jimmy chamberlain etc etc,but this guy is great anyway.
@@stevewilliams2240Hell yes. Steve Smith is awesome
Yeah, some of the tricks have been done, but Dylan takes it to the next level.
If you have anything negative to say, you obviously don't know what you are taking about :)
+Matt yeah I agree, if your so much better than this post your video and let us bash you! this guy's great!
You are incredible!
God bless your amazing talent.
Amazing
Everybody hates on this kid, he's one of the best out there right now
Alot of the backlash comes from jealousy....very sad.👎
Personally I'd rather take the time to listen and learn what he does than give him the backlash. Dylan is an amazing drummer and many of us could learn from what he and other pro drummers do.
Drum on people.😀
Wait. Who hates this guy??
How could they ever hate on him other than jealousy?

Who the hell would thumbs down this?
it's always the jealous ones that give thumbs down and make shitty comments.
Those 5 minutes seemed like 1 minute...dat is how fukin great this guy is

Great stick Control and Dynamics
Just awesome. These types of drummers let other drummers know there are so many ways to progress and ideas to form. And come up with some amazing original ways to play. Thinking outside the kit
Wow! So good!
Oh my god. I think the drum core just found their next competitive instrument.

From outerspace.....great!
Wow, this is simply incredible. I just wish his hi hats didn't sound so brash.
They sound like un-miked hi-hats in an auditorium.
Skills amazing🤙
Superman!
guess he watched Steve Smith carefully. awesome job anyway.
This guy is a freak 👏
love it!!
Holy shit!!!!!where did this guy come from? I checked out a few vids of him.......he is a monster.
Some of that stuff are from Steve Smith, from the drummers collective 2002 concert ... anyway Dylan is a great drummer
😳 Wow you are awesome Dylan
Awesome
This guy is a true performer
c'est certainement l'un des meilleurs batteurs de l'histoire, il faut qu'il fasse attention avec ,qui?il vas jouer ! ! !
There is no "Best drummer in the world ", but there is "The best drummer I've ever seen "!!
Even with his mistakes he makes up for it cause you just gotta know that's some hard shit to do he's definitely a one of a kind drummer
Impresionante!
WOW!
Madness!!!!!!!
Impressionante 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Dylan is from Wellington, New Zealand. I'm proud to be a kiwi.
Brandon O'Sullivan I don't think he's kiwi blood....don't think he's Maori blood. I heard he is actually of Samoan ancestry but lives in NZ.
Jonathan Miller absolutely I’m sure if he was marketing himself like lang, I would think those that have a brain would instantly give him the accolades he deserves 🖖
uuaaaahhh.. aamaziinng
Creativity = hands down
Para mi es el mejor baterista del mundo (he's the best drummer of the word)
Everything he did was exactly what Steve Smith did on his hi hat solos. Look it up
wooow.....
Max Roach; Papa Joe Jones … Mr. High Hat
All the rest is eye-candy acrobatics.
Steve Smith also did "Mr. Hi-Hat"
Holy Moly 🔥😳👍
I SAW THE SAME TECH FROM STEVE SMITH ON THIS HI HAT ON YOU TUBE BOTH ARE GREAT DRUMMERS
Great
Salute!! 👍
Nice !
MUITO TÉCNICA, NUNCA VI ALGO PARECIDO.
Master
Красавец! В полном и переносном смысле. Мастер!
What cymbals does he use.
que buenas manos tiene cuantas horas de rudimentos
A lot like Steve Smith's hi-hat routine.
best in the world
wow wow wow
stage helper DUCKS down so we don't see him ... priceless! lol
Very fun to watch I lost my sticks in the first 30 seconds, I think, cool! No practice needed!
this is the stuff Steve Smith did when Elise was unborn :D
Seriously? And Max did this when Steve was a child. And Jo Jones did this before all of them. But Dylan Is doing it NOW!
You have to put Spoon Lady with this guy one day
NICE ,NICE 👤👥👤 👏👏
From Wich Planet is he?
\m/
This is better than Steve Smith's version of Mr. High Hat.
