      El Kickmyassio must be an alien from the future. He's not human, he's got to be from Kryton.
      I drummed for decades but hung it up about 12 years ago. I was pretty fast playing in punk bands but this guy's like 10 times faster than I could ever imagine being back then, or even now.
      Wow!!! Just wow!!!

He literally threw down his drumsticks and wrote I QUIT on the video and walked away. 😂😂 Edit EcQPuP-dMZE into the video ID if you want to watch that, or search for "PLAYING A MARIO DUPLANTIER DRUM SOLO AT FIRST SIGHT | REACTION VIDEO".

      I can't play a lick of music, but as a former large concert producer and promoter I can listen. This guy "Jorge" is perhaps the first drummer I could book for solo shows in large venues... At 26 his talent is insane and audiences would dig him playing in the round. OSN, TY for a great overview... And like you, I shook my head in disbelief at his precision.

      He's actually just doing what we used to call ruffs back in the day, which aren't very loud but can be played extremely fast. It's basically just a controlled stick bounce on the drum head. You can see that he isn't hitting his drums or cymbals very hard at all.
      Then he uses modern recording technology to enhance the sound to make it sound loud and heavy. It's like playing a drum beat on a coffee table top with your fingers.
      For sure he changes the playback speed without altering the sound (I've watched many of his videos and seen him do this first hand, usually for comic effect).
      Having said all that, he is extremely talented and I really enjoy watching him play.

    Here's the thing. I've said this about EES from the beginning. If you are alive and breathing in 2023, fortunate enough to be witnessing what you're witnessing, count your blessings. The talent he has only comes to an infinitesimal percentage of actual musicians, and the fact that you're seeing it with your own eyes is nothing short of a miracle. What we see in EES is a musician that has transcended his instrument and his craft. Calling him simply a drummer does no justice to what he really is. I have no qualms claiming that he is the best on planet earth. He has no competition. He is the best. Period.

    Estepario is that ‘one in a century’ type of musician who got all signs on green and unlocked the limits of creativity, playbility and skill. I swear, I’ve always thought that drummers like Simon Philips and Mike Portnoy couldn’t be beaten in terms of technique and musicality, until I stumbled up on Esteparo. I’m not joking.

    I have been a hobbyist musician for over 40 years and have played with drummers of all calibers and even jammed with Max Weinberg of the E-Street Band when he did a seminar at my high school in the mid 80s (what an honor and a rush by the way). That said, I have a friend Jeff that back in his prime was like this gentleman on the drums. He had one of the fastest right feet I had ever heard and played with so much passion and energy that he would walk his entire kit across the floor of our rehearsal area by 12 feet in the span of 2 hours. He played a very scaled down single bass kit with a single pedal and could match some of the fastest dual bass drummers of the day with ease. His stick work was unlike anything I had ever seen and yet he was the most modest and humble drummer ever.
    I think every so often a prodigy is born. Someone with a innate yet unnatural or seemingly unhuman talent for an art, whether it is musical instrumentation, drawing, fabrication etc. This young man is on another level and what I truly love about his work is that he uses the bare minimum of a kit keeping it beyond basic and then uses his hand and foot control to elevate the use of such a minimalistic kit to make it sound huge and complex. His body and mind are the instrument and that seemingly rudimentary kit is merely their vocal chord. His improvisation for lack of upper toms, and additional floor drums is mind boggling at the very least. Now,if you can try to imagine what would happen if you put him inside of a 360 degree kit. His combinations would be more unfathomable than what he does with a 3 drum kit.
    I have to add one more thing that I find even more admirable about this young man and that is, while he does record and share his artistry with all of us on UA-cam if you watch his video on his back story, he does not do any of this for any reason beyond personal growth. I can relate to that because even though I did gig small local venues for a while, I have always played guitar because it was an outlet of expression and spiritually aligning for me and it is where I was free to be me without having to conform to any standard or have to make any apologies. Music is a vocalization of spiritual energies. If you examine all the different genres of music they all have a certain energy to them that connects to a human emotional state and some sort of social activity or ritual that correlates with that emotional state.

Her name is Anastasia Sereda, and she played a lot of songs from "Slipknot" (also I find her shorts about "Darko US" very interesting), and not only that, but a lot of others, as well.

    Bro, check out his Blinding Lights cover. He goes to THREE sticks by flipping one up into the air, handing his left stick over to the now empty right hand, grabbing a third stick from his waist belt with his left and catching the airborne stick with his already-sticked right hand and playing with ALL THREE. And in case you missed it the first time, he does it TWICE!

That ain't just talent - it's talent honed by some incredibly hard work! Mad respect for ESS' hard-earned skill!

    Being a guitar player, I could never really tell if a drummer was really good, or totally

    I would imagine Greg Bissonette could do all of this, and more-while moving the one all over the place.
    This here kinda looks like what I see that guy Travis Barker doing occasionally.

    I've been following Siberiano for some time. He has the fastest hands I've ever seen and it looks effortless.
    I can't figure out why some big band hasn't approached him to join but maybe it's because he does his one take on things. I could easily see him joining Rush if they were to tour again but he'd have to be restrained in respect to the Dr.

    • @bryanjackson8917
      @bryanjackson8917 9 місяців тому +1

      He's actually just doing what we used to call ruffs back in the day, which aren't very loud but can be played extremely fast. It's basically just a controlled stick bounce on the drum head. You can see that he isn't hitting his drums or cymbals very hard at all.
      Then he uses modern recording technology to enhance the sound to make it sound loud and heavy. It's like playing a drum beat on a coffee table top with your fingers.
      For sure he changes the playback speed without altering the sound (I've watched many of his videos and seen him do this first hand, usually for comic effect).
      Having said all that, he is extremely talented and I really enjoy watching him play.

I'm no drummer, can't hold a beat if I had to, and love when I see videos of the ones that can and react to things like this. It's nice to get and insider's view on things. The wife and I noticed the Fleur on the wall and in your logo. We're from Lake Charles and got even more excited in your channel. I just subbed and will start watching more of your stuff. I haven't checked your channel close enough yet, but, if you've never seen Adam Rupp do his "drum solo" you really need to. He's amazing. Drum solo was in quotations because he is a beatboxer plus. Even if you don't want to do a reaction to him, at least check him out. You won't regret it.

    One of the main reasons for his excellence is the fact that he has mastered the ‘push-pull’ method of drumstick playing. Once mastered, this allows the player to play 2 beats with one stick in the same time as one would normally play just one beat. The ‘push-pull’ method also makes it possible to play a drum roll using just one stick with one hand.
