Cool, I would love to do a cover with such a party of drums, but no one can record this for me (((
Link ?🥰
Per me è il n 1 al mondo👍
Il n1 al mondo 👍
Выбери Московский адик , не прогодаешь .
2:00 , he hit those drums more times in that fill than I've done in 20 years drumming
Ok dude
I had the same impression!
Each bar speeding up! INSANE! Love this guy.
maybe you should speed it up some then only thing you can do is try most try to stay in one style. why there so much out there give it a shot push your self like you did when you first picked up the drumbs
@@Archie854 now thats advice. Well said
Impulse and Skizz weren’t wrong: this guy is on another freaking PLANET of a level
Totally agree!!!
And the sound quality in his new video is amazing!
Agreed
Ikr
Yep totally agree
Imp & Skizz told me to watch this video. That was awesome! You are an amazing drummer!
Same❤
Same here. Amazing job! They weren't kidding!
We must group together
Same 🥁
no way
when it went "do do do do do do do do do do" and he went "brrrr kakapa" i felt that
lol
The fact that I know exactly what you're talking about😂
Fuckin comment thread is almost better than the video 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Dude aliens are still hearing that drum fill come thru as a sonic radio wave from 267 million light years away on the star system Vega
Did you leave a similar comment on a Polyphia video?
I'm here from the Imp and Skizz Podcast (Ep 54: Comparison; The thief of Joy) to tell you that you're the best drummer in the world👀
Imp and Skizz sent me too and I'm so glad they recommended you! You're amazing!!!
Same here! Also, that's one of my favorite songs, and you absolutely crushed it!
I would like to welcome everyone to the Imp and Skizz positivity raid here in the comments
@@duvalfamily4605 One of my favorites as well.....and wow, he destroyed it!
Same here. Amazing podcast suggesting an amazing drummer
I love how raw his recording is and not like other drummers out there which make overly produced recordings
Absolutely. That is always the same thought/instruction I have, when recording a cover and forwarding for a mix
Couldn't agree more 👍
For example Matt McGuire is a very interesting drummer but his drum sound is so overly edited that it's ruining the whole experience 😐
He uses triggers, while the señor here uses the smart yamaha thingy, which makes magics :)
Cough cough samus
@@TomTenDrums what’s the smart Yamaha thingy?
Imp and Skizz sent me, and I'm glad they did. WOW!
Me Too!
ME TO
I'm here because of the imp n swizz podcast, best drummer in the world allegedly lol
ME TO
For me?? For my ears?? Your drum tones are by far the best live sound/mix I've ever heard on UA-cam. I wont even discuss how ridiculously good your technique and skills are. Just another level. What stands out to me the most,.....is your power, control and presence in "the pocket". Its so organic and seamless that no matter what you play,.....it sounds as if it was written by the original artist. Your simply an anomaly of this age. I'm humbled,....and completely in awe of your excellence. JUST WOW!!!!!
SUBBING IMMEDIATELY!!!!
Yeah, this dude is the outta this world. It blows my mind, even being a drummer :) Dude has some insanely serious skills.
I subbed after the second or third video I watched. So glad he showed up on my feed.
Really??? That snare drum sounds like a bucket
@@SpaceJockey805 You ever listen to the original? This is live. Add it up.
At this moment, this man is the most enjoyable drummer going. Hands down. A true pleasure to watch. Phenomenal.
facts
Check out Louis Cole.
Agree mate
Wait until you watch GALIH JUST DRUM
For some reason, I can't stop watching either.
IMP AND SKIZZ SENT ME!!! but I knew you already from Tiktok :D you are the GOAT of drumming
Me too imp and skizz sent 😄😄
Been drumming for more than 25 years and this man takes it an entirely different level. Seem him cover "Sultans of Swing" to SlipKnot and he defies human ability. Truly inspirational of what can be done with hard work and dedication.
And a few freak fast twitch muscles. 😄
I love how we all flooded the comments with Imp and Skizz Podcast, and I can only confirm - it's just as awesome as they said it will be! What a wonderful drum play!
Imp and Skizz Podcast brought me here. I watched this one and your new cover. You are amazing at what you do. Bravo 👏🏻
Imp and skizz!!!
Agreed
How long do you want the drum fill?
El Estepario: .. Yes
lmaooo!!
2:00 😳
that guy is pretty amazing so is Aric and Agren but Jarzombek is fascinating to watch as is Lang
Imp and skizzle man weren’t wrong! This is amazing.
I'm here cause Imp&Skizz send me!
Imp and Skizz sent me so here I am
This
Me too
ME too!
Same
Same
This has to be one of the most enjoyable drum covers I've ever witnessed, just extraordinary playing.
I just thought that myself
You clearly haven't seen Justin Bieber play.
@@ryancox5097 Umm and Travis Barker...
I'm here because Imp& Skizz sent me!
Here because of impulsesv & Skizzleman…
Me too
Me too ❤
Me too. I commented on the newer cover first. This original is amazing too.
Me too!
Dude, I've been playing on stage for almost 50 years and you are the best fucking drummer I have ever heard. THANK YOU
Check out Benny Greb.
Yeah that was awesome
You must not have heard of/heard Neil Peart or Danny Carey
@@FusionSimulations Neil!
@carbonc6065 umm...think about what?
Whoa, the drum break at 2:00 gave me chills! And isnt just about every song way more depressing slowed down? 😂 Glad the imp and skizz podcast sent me here!
Yes gave me chills too
Same!
Jesus Christ - It made me want to put my sticks down, admit I'm a complete and utter failure on drums, and sell all my gear. Joking apart, fantastic. Just absolutely phenomenal.
@@martinmayers5099 never put those sticks down for good! Whether it's talent or passion, it's always worth pursuing!
This video makes me tear up. It feels like it’s what my trapped ADHD brain wants my body to do to sooth it, but my body can’t do it. The rush this gave me was incredible. Therapy. Finally. Thank you.
I also have ADHD
@@MikatemukiRen I have diarrhea. It sounds similar.
Love your comment, I think you're hitting on the catharsis that some music can provide.
I'm dying over here!
I got both.
Mind blowing pattern on the intro! The entire thing is like watching the hands in 1.75x speed.
Holy shit have you watched it at 1.75x speed?
@@alxbrycar95 😂 I bet that must be 3.5 speed then
bro watch it at 2x
To me, and I could be wrong, is that it looks like he slowed the song down, played along to it doing some really tasteful and incredibly inventive stuff, then sped the clip back up to its normal speed.
@@sammcnaughton5961 I was thinking the same exact thing but where he throws his stick in the air it looks fairly close to real time. Hard to tell to me.
I am here because of Imp and Skizz
Same
Same😭
Haha me too
Sames
me too
I've been playing drums for a living for the past 45 years and El Estepario Siberiano is a PHENOM. Keep it up bro. You are amazing!!!
I’m here because of the Imp and Skizz podcast 😏😏
Here from the Imp And Skizz Podcast
Me too. And I was not disappointed!
Same here!
Me too!
may I know from which episode? I want to hear it too.
Here because of imp and skizz
Amazing imp and skizz was nit kidding just amazing
I’m here b/c of Imp and Skizz. I found 2 videos like this but this MUST be the one Skizz was talking about. I’m not a drummer and I can this is AMAZING. I can also see a difference between the two videos and this one blows the other one away.
I'm a seasoned drummer, and rarely have I ever seen such fluency of thought and execution
So u go up on stage with paprika and stuff?
@@matrug0078I use Jamaican Rub.. yahh maann
Il suo corpo si amalgama con la percussione ❤
Evviva i seasoned!!!😂
There's a clip where Dennis Chambers says he's a monster. If Dennis says you're great, you're great.
The fact that every person on the planet hasn't heard of this guy YET is a crime against humanity.
How do you make it look SO EASY AND ABSOLUTELY EFFORTLESS???? The drum fill at 2:00 made my jaw drop. Absolutely one of the most incredible things I've seen, and as a non-drummer, there must be SO many more incredible things I'm missing. I can fully understand why Impulse and Skizz consider you the best drummer in the world! 🤩
This was the last video I sent my mom dying in hospice in her final days at 74 because the original was her favorite video when I was growing up as a kid and you totally crushed it...
Just awesome but puts me in tears now to watch... Just so bad ass what you do man. Absolutely rocked it
I would never have found this if i hadn't heard about this from the imp and skizz podacst on UA-cam! Amazing drumming!
Talent does exist, it is that spark that allows you to understand what has never been told. But Talent gets you no where.
Hard Work will beat Talent everyday of the week.
Hard Work vs Talent with some work becomes a stalemate.
Hard Work vs Talent and Hard Work is the difference between an Amateur and a Professional.
Devoted Talented Industrialist - This is what makes Gods in the space, those that are the G.O.A.T. Hands down.
You sir are very Talented. You did not waste it away practicing here and there just to see if you still had it. You dived in, set your sights on what you wanted to achieve and let nothing get between you and the goal. That is Industrious at it’s best. Well done. Check out Imp and Skizz to see what other drummers think of your skills.
I blame Imp an Skizz for this!!!! Dude you are frickin' awesome!!!!
I was a teenager when this song was a hit, and you just blew my mind. Just wow.
Same in Wisc. 17/18 years old graduated
Me too, but I don't remember the drums being so fing hard :)
A-ha & Duran Duran - I thought those Guys were the Coolest.
It was a hit in Singapore too.
Coming from the Imp and Skizz Podcast here. This is incredible!
Imp and Skizz were not kidding! Really impressive!
I've played the drums for roughly 12/13 years until I got burned out on it. 10 years later, this man is sparking my joy again.
That 02:00 fill was absolutely insane
Good for you ... I'm tired of people saying, "That's it, I quit!" Keep on DRUMMING, man!
We all need to be worshiping this man as the deity that he is.
Found your video from Imp and Skizz podcast. They love your videos! Rock on man.
Me too!
Me too!
Imp and skizz have sent me here twice
Wow the robots have gotten good!
I'm pretty sure this is a faustrian bargain situation here 😂😂😂
This is such insane, next level, talent I find it inspiring and demotivating just how good he is.
I can’t help but smile, when I watch him play. Like a true musician, he’s lost in his art. Bravo, sir!
2:00... for the phenomenal drum fill you never knew you needed.
Yasssss!!! 🥁
completely unnecessary
@@renzogaido8584
What’s wrong with a little flavor & flare? Originality is a gift.
@@renzogaido8584 well yeah. That’s the point.
My jaw literally left a hole in my floor
Imp and Skizz were right, this dude is _amazing!_
Good God! This guy insanely good. He’s the Eddie Van Halen of drummers
I couldn't of said it better
That’s a bit of an insult, he’s a way better drummer than Eddie is a guitar player.
@@MasterChief37 debatable
@@MasterChief37love him to death, but he’s got a lot of catch up work to do if he’s going to be remembered forever like Mr. Van Halen
@@defandy471 I only ever liked 1 VH song, the rest was just pure shit.
He did a better job than the original drums... He put phrases where none existed...Phenomenon👏👏👏👏
Better is a subjective per se an individual thought. But is very cool his INTERPRETATION
I slowed the video down to 50% and played the fill at 2:00... It's incredibly accurate! Unbelievable... 👍
Finally, someone who understands how to do a drum cover. Make the song your own, do not just play over the top of the song.
Обажаю этого упрямого, безумно трудолюбивого испанца. Любой нафталиновый хит оживляет так, как будто впервые услышан. Раньше больше любил звучание гитары, а этот парень своими ударными меняет восприятие музыки. Спасибо тебе огромное за твой труд и пот. Ты лучший! Heavy Metal рулит!
Этот, бесспорно, талантливейший и ваще красава парень - испанец. Просто для уточнения.
@@anatoly_md Спасибо, погуглил. Парень- огонь! И всегда на позитиве, что сейчас редкость.
Un. Baterista fenomenal.
I was learning the drums, but decided to change my efforts. Im gonna be a brain surgeon instead. Easier i think after this guy
Those chokes at 0:27 and 0:33. Chef’s kiss.
This is one of the coolest drum covers I've seen in a long time. Great playing,great control,great energy and attack.Well done."Ahhh Ahhh!!"
Unreal
imp and skizz sent me 🫡 you're cracked
At 2:00 I audible giggled and also thought, “this might be the most impressive drum roll I’ve ever witnessed”
This man is an underrated Legend! Seriously, he is one of the all time greats and not enough people know it!
Not a drummer, but I’ve done enough marching band to understand the bare minimum. My whole life I’ve seen drummers carry themselves a certain way when at their craft, but I have NEVER seen anything even remotely close to this. It’s so fluid I had to step back and tell myself I was watching a human, not a bearded noodle.
I just don’t possess the vocabulary and terminology to better describe what I’ve just witnessed…
Standing ovation!!! From 1: 57-2:11, amazing and worth the price of admission! UA-cam needs to figure out a way to have a virtual tip jar for you. If this was on the street I'd throw a couple bucks into your hat.
It is so utterly enjoyable and entertaining to watch someone who truly loves their craft so much that all the blood sweat and tears that have gone into getting them to their level of perfection seems so effortless. I never played the drums. But I can’t skip over a single video that he has turned out. His art is what I imagine it would be to fly with out the need of plane or wings...to just soar through the heavens without a care in the world.
Thank you for sharing your talents. Bless you
Gotta be a robot right😂 this drumming is so far beyond and ever before seen. The speed, complexity of rhythms, limb independence, fluidity and his obvious joy of playing is unlike anything I have seen before. Cymbal choking while cross stroking with smokin quads what more can we say. This is sheer mastery of an instrument . God bless him and may his career continue to motivate and encourage new drummers the world over.
The unplugged Take On Me is gorgeous
I believe it's from the Deadpool soundtrack.
Is it just me? Watching this gentleman play drums relaxes me.🥁
No it doesn't relax. He is so fast I think if I watch too long I might have a seizure. Lololol
THE 2ND VERSION OF THIS SONG WITH WORDS ONLY, SEEMS TO EPLIN THINGS MUCH BETTER??? MICHAEL...
I cannot play the drums, but I appreciate perfection and mastery of one's craft. This guy is an absolute grandmaster. I actually was laughing out loud with wonderment during some of those fills and rolls. Thank you, sir.
Trust me when I say that it's even worse for drummers, we(I can play but not like this lol) are just going, "wow, look at this shit" every time we watch El Estepario Siberiano videos. He's a god.
@philipcatuogno2968
You CAN play the drums. It just takes practice and dedication. There was a point in the life of Estepario when he couldn’t play the drums either…..but look at him now!
If you’re desire is strong enough to play the drums, eventually you will. Hopefully, sooner than later.
……coming from a guy that got his first drum set in 7th grade (1964). Best of luck, Phil.👍
Every now and then, I have to come back to this video to have my mind blown all over again
As a norwegian where a-ha comes from.. this was sick
No jodas, esto era algo que no sabía que necesitaba en mi vida.
Are we just gonna ignore the fill at 2.00 where he wins drumming?
possibly one of the best drummers alive today
holy hell, this dude with his sound.....amazing
Tastefully done. Other drummers would overplay on this song and even blast beat on it all day. Your version preserved it's original vibe while having your signature chops. Keep drumming bro. It's an honor to see you and your channel grow.
he literally overplayed it though???
@@WaldoCampos1 thank you for this comment.
Could not have been more overplayed if he tried.
holy shit 1:59 is so mindblowing, whole thing is so tasty and the herta triplet in the chorus leading up to the head voice part...mmmmm delicious
Which bit in the chorus? Don't think that's a triplet
0:59 , 1:37 or 2:53 sounds like a herta on triplets, but not sure, or what do you think?🤔
@@oli6719 yeah, it's definitely hertas
It sounds like a Tabla fill on a kit. Dude's a demon.
It just blows my mind he can make a fill sound so complex when he only works with one tom and essentially only one special fx cymbal
What a legend, Skizz was totally correct
You have a new sub thanks to Imp & Skizz. You sir are a machine on the sticks!! ❤
Fuck this is maybe the best drum cover I've seen, I have to come back here every once in a while. That fill in 1:59 is phenomenal.
And the 2 min... 😮
I love the polarisation on here compared to FB, everyone talks shit about you on FB, but here everyone loves you. Including me. Keep it up king!
Imp and Skizz talked about you in their latest episode, I know they'd love it if you watched and commented for them. They're awesome folks :)
Aha: this song needs a bridge.
Estepario: No. DRUM FILL
Those crossovers were sick.
It always amazes me that he works so hard to work with the song, no matter what it is. It would be easy to meme this song by going super super hard, but he just subtely improves things instead, with a huge dose of skill and musicality. Frankly, he’d be the perfect drummer to work with on just about any song, imo. He just wants the song to be better.
That fill at 2:00 in is absolutely insane. Damn.
Holy sh*t!! I could watch this forever.
Fellow drummer here. I love the fact that your not above playing a tune such as this considering your metal background!! Every musician should dwell into other genres to keep the brain musically healthy. Great job on the jam brother! Keep up the fantastic overkill. WOOHOO.
As a fellow metal love maker, I approve of this message...
The snare is right out of a college drumline. Excellent control.
INSANE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Love from India
Every one of your videos makes me want to quit playing the drums. Your speed and control is mind blowing 🤯
Listening to all the greats is why I never took guitar too seriously. I would much rather be a fan with my ability; or lack there of. ;-)
This is the shit that UA-cam is meant for
AH AH will always be part of the song for me now
That little snare fill at 1:37 was TASTY
Yes, I also noticed that odd time flama-half-time-triplets or whatever it was.
That bridge fill melted my brain, sooo many notes! 🤯🤯🤯
I WANNA SEE THIS GUY REDO A DUBSTEP SONG!!! MICHAEL...
And that ladies and gents, is how its done 👌
Ok, so…
Iwe heard all of them (known living drummers) …
And…
you are now officially the best drummer I’ve ever heard….
Without a doubt…
Thank you for the inspiration u give me and making me want to be better at playing drums.
He sounds like fireworks!
Let's boost that algorithm!
