    The dude put out an amazing short video as a response to people accusing him of speeding up his videos. It was him playing one handed whilst holding a tablet with a stopwatch counting up to prove the video wasn't sped up and at the end he looks into the lens and says "if you people spent as much time practicing as you do hating, you'd be able to that, but you don't so you can't" or words to that effect. Just supreme talent.

      I recently became aware of him. Love the guys skill, his attitude. But to directly comment on this talent is a lie video.
      It’s a bit of a stretch. The beginning of the video where he says he is embarrassingly bad, he’s freaking Better than 90 percent of people right there. Haha.
      So yes while he had to put in the time to get where he is, he has a natural born talent which gave him a much higher starting point.
      Also being born with a talent isn’t a bad thing and doesn’t diminish any hard work. I’m sure I can learn to write clearly with my left hand if I were to lose my right. However, using my right just comes naturally.
      Not an apples for apple comparison, but hopefully my point makes sense

      @@DamageJackyl I’m not saying it’s impossible. You can absolutely excel at anything you put your mind to. For me. I can learn most anything and learn it quick and be definitely above average, if not high level at stuff. But I wasn’t born with maybe a specific skill but some do have a better ability to learn things. And some are with out a doubt born with talent. So I think both ends of the spectrum are true. But to deny that some people are just born more talented than others, to me is a little silly.

I never seen anyone use weed daily and be able to be that sharp. Most have trouble with basic tasks while stoned.

    He has a video explaining how he manages to get that phenomenal sound out of an EAD10. The technique includes epic quantities of damping, removing most of the toms because they either block the sound or overwhelm it, and using crash cymbals as hi-hats. He does also do plenty of double pedal stuff but not for this song. Check out his "shorts" they are as outrageous as you'd expect given this video.

      @ach You beat me to the comment. This was originally recorded by Mike Mangini. Portnoy left the band 3 years earlier. This tune came from their 2nd album with Mangini on drums.
      From what I read, the problem with the sound on the original recording was that they tried to recreate the drum sound on Images and Words and used drum triggers.

    • @OutOfOrderBerlin
      @OutOfOrderBerlin 3 роки тому +2

      @@dtfreak they definitely didn't use triggers on that record (they did on Images and Words). If so it would be the worst apply of drum triggers/samples in history. It's just a extremely compressed snare sound with a high amount of the bottom signal. They clearly wanted to get an 80s vibe of snare sound though. At that time his snare sounded live pretty much the same, too.

    he also has a whole series of 1 handed drumming, usually playing heavy metal, and he is doing things like drinking a coffee, reading a book, or doing finger guns (for the double bass drum/machine gun type sounds).

    Thanks for sharing your view and impressions on this mad guy, Andrew. I'm a drummer, I've been following El Estepario Siberiano ("The Siberian from the Steppe" or "The Siberian Stepperian" in English) for a while and he was my 2020 drumming finding. I've never heard something this good with such a limited number of drum pieces. Incredible. It's too bad you can't follow his videos and streams on you tube since they're mostly in Spanish with the exception of some subtittles. In his videos he speaks about his different techniques, methods, his routines (this guy has been practicing 10 hours a day for the past ten years or so, every single day from 7pm in the morning, crazy routines). Another thing that amazes me is his sound signature and style. It's unique.

    He is so much fun to watch, also his tutorials are full of humor and good advise. Its great to see that he is getting the recognition he deserves. He just got hired by a long running and excellent Spanish metal band Saratoga. Thanks for showcasing great talent that keeps our art moving forward.

    This dude is the lockdown king! Up until recently, when he got a gig in a band, he was putting out covers every day. He also used to have a clock behind him where you could see he was doing a one take cover. You should check some of the covers where he also uses that weight as a coaster for his coffee.
    You need to check his Gangnam Style cover. His chops in that are absolutely ridiculous and he has so much fun playing it.

    I use the split finger grip all the time. I broke both of my hands and wrists some time ago and have a tendency to drop my sticks. The split finger grip on my right hand is something I switch to predominately on cymbal work so I don't throw my stick accidentally and primarily because of the great speed I can achieve for quick responsiveness on cymbals. By having the fulcrum between my fingers, I can use the other three digits to manipulate the back end of the stick faster than with the standard grip. Hope that helps!

  • @EmberGyaru

    OMG. I was just, completely captivated. From his level of calm, coolness, to his into-it screaming, to his never-before-seen techniques... I am SO happy you featured this dude, and whoever suggested him, huge hats off to you! I rewound 10:50 multiple times before seeing your reaction, and sure enough, you had about the same reaction I did and rewound it yourself! Then, near the end, watching him play just kinda broke my brain into crossing a threshold and accepting this guy actually exists. Wow.

  • @Powerhauze
    @Powerhauze Рік тому +2

    That grip he does on the ride cymbal is something I saw a little 5 year old do that I was teaching drums. After he left I tried it and it felt so natural I kept doing it for the last 26 years.... Since drumming is fysical "there are no rules", it's the result of what you are doing that matters. This guy is proof of that drumming "outside the box" and definitely "in the pocket"👍🏻👍🏻

    • @ST13B3N

    In answer to your question about double kick, he recently (couple of months ago maybe) did a video about having to get a double pedal for an audition, first time he'd used one in many years apparently. Because his thing is those absolutely outrageous linear singles between hands and foot.

One of my favorite videos he posted was the one where he plays with one hand while holding a clock to show he is playing in real time.
