    "Remember...the rhythm is"
    From the free initial fills to the disparity of the groove... shivers with your mouth open!
    another great one who will be missed!
    R.I.P. Aaron

      Carter Beauford does that all the damn time, too, when he's drumming! He makes it look so easy you don't really realize how good he is sometimes. Aaron is on another planet, though. I just don't understand this guy. He's an alien and I want to be abducted!

  • @waiakalulu3501
    @waiakalulu3501 6 років тому +3

    The power hits on the snare fills are awesome and drop into the pocket of the rhythm like nothing else. The anticipation of the "Mambo" vocals and the accompanying symbol smash really lends to the musicality of the piece and marks it as a sharp departure from your typical noisy drum solo.

  • @andyp90210

    Man! Aaron is one of those few drummers who make something technically challenging look as easy as smoking a cigarette! His chops and fluidity is just ridiculous! 👍🏻

    • @TheRadrussian1
      @TheRadrussian1 8 років тому

      i think those are the best kind of drummers. it just kills it when someone looks like they are struggling, even if what they are playing is very impressive. making it look easy kinda takes it from a skill to being art.

      IDK I see some use for it. But what it does for that crash is done much better by the Trashformer.
      Only drummer who I know uses the spirals is Ray Luzier and if I'm right he had Sabian make them for him (since he is a Sabian endorser)
