One of the best if not the best sounding kit ever. Snare is perfect. Recording mix awesomeness. Thanks Mr. Crawford. Did I mention the floor toms? They...................🥁🔥🥁
Josh; I keep posting on all of her videos that the late Karen Carpenter must be smiling from sunrise to sunset in eternity when Anika plays. What a great drummer and composer. She fears no rhythmic possibility and makes it look effortless! The ghost notes though! Thanks again for your channel. Joshua 1:8
I checked the thumbs-up button the moment she started playing it's nice to see female artists getting the recognition that they've been denied for so long
I don't know who the imbeciles were that gave this a thumbs down but apparently they don't know about great drumming and this is one example of great drumming! She's a beast on the drums!
You are jumping to conclusions. I didn't like this video that much but it has nothing to do with Anika's playing. It's a reaction video and I am wondering what the big takeaway is. Frankly, now I know who the sponsor of the channel is and that the guy liked Anikas playing. A few platitudes, nothing more and that's a little thin, so if I were in the business of giving thumbs down, I could do so here with good reasons.
Josh has been reacting to drum videos for a few years now. He also posts videos of him playing drums and he can play real good, too! You have every right to give whatever reaction video or ANY video a thumbs down and I have that same right to express my opinion about it. Think about it. Josh must be doing something right if he has over 100,000 subscribers so if you give it a thumbs down, that's on you. I'm glad you cleared it up but if I see someone giving a thumbs down on any video, that will make me as well as anybody else think that they didn't like the video altogether. You may not see it that way but that's what it is to ME!
@@bigralph1978 I absolutely agree with you on this: He must be doing something right, but I don't get it. That is actually my default attitude when I don't like something. That's why I did NOT give a thumbs down. I was just trying to explain the rationale behind doing so. A possible rationale, I should add, because I can only speculate about the motivations of those folks. I am not trying to be a sourpuss here.
I gotcha! I'm glad you didn't give it a thumbs down. The video was nice and she's a beast on the drums! She can actually do some things I can't do. I respect your output. No harm done! Let's have an awesome day! Shall we?!
She is by far the best female drummer in the world. No other female plays on this crazy level. Most male drummers can't play this stuff. Keep up the good work Anika.👍👍👍
Nah bro. This is automatically in my personal top 5 of your videos and this was only a week ago you put this out. This whole song was dope and she ripped this shit down🤘🏾💪🏾 If not top 5 then top 10. But top 5 for me just cause she also wrote that joint. I also love Paramore, and that sounded like something they could have done😁
Hi Joshua, yeah, she is a damn beast. An I love her chops and those nasty switches in feeling. Do you know her song "queenz". Awesome! Greetings from germany!
I feel hints of Luke Holland in there .. excellent all around.. ps I continue to just love this channel.. watching it grow makes me so happy!! Love from ATL -
Yea Josh I've been a fan of hers for a few months now. I could be wrong but I think her last name might be pronounced (nil' is) with a short i sound and the es pronounced like the word "is". You can check with her to be sure. She is a master of mixed meters and has a very unique style as well as her choice of unique cymbals. she's a Meinl endorsee. She is indeed a beast.
She plays Tama Star Bubinga at the moment. Every drummer should watch her video's. She is the BOM. She is by far the best female drummer out there. And she's good looking also. Very impressive. Keep up the good work ANIKA.
Your a beast as well my friend!!! Wish I had your skills! I need to get back to practicing, I watch these videos and get sick from the mad skills which I dont possess but hope to be half the drummer u are one day, at 46 doubtful but I still love it and still love to play which I guess is the most important part no matter what level your on. Practice practice practice right!? Lol!
Post touring with Jeff Beck. For me these earlier youtube compositions on the Mapex kits will hold up well she was very forward in most every aspect. Ya there are and have been more savage drummers, but not many ever more analytical present.
Reminds me of this musician I met years back that was very technical and precise, but everything had to be planned or prepared. Every performance is it's own composition. I love her articulation tho! Clean clean!!!!!✊🏾
![Anika Nilles - DARK CHOCOLATE [official video]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/0Ho2NXY46O0/mqdefault.jpg)
She wrote, produced, played the drums, keys, piano, probably recorded and edited the video as well. 😄 Amazing skills!
Kinda like Donyea Goodman
Это просто👍🤗
She really does flow around the kit, wonderful execution of rhythms, syncopation and fills...👌
This was the track that made me an Anika Nilles fan. Just so clean with it!
One of the best if not the best sounding kit ever. Snare is perfect. Recording mix awesomeness. Thanks Mr. Crawford. Did I mention the floor toms? They...................🥁🔥🥁
She's very clean playing. Her notes are timed perfectly
She’s a straight up beast!!! One of my favorite drummers.
I've been in love with Anika since discovering her a few years ago. She is one hell of a drummer.
Been following Anika for a while. She's so amazing. Would love to see her live!
That bass guitar raised my eyebrows at 2:22 too! She is EVERYTHING 🥁 ❤️👏🏾
I don't want to hear anyone say she is a female drummer. Just Anika Nilles... awesome drummer, period!
She is a female drummer
🤣
The mark of a great song, in part, is when you never get sick of it no matter how many times you hear it. That’s how I feel about this amazing song.
Been a fan of Anika Nilles I love her off beats,grooves and definitely the bass is killing
Mhhhhh tjoooo wooow 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 the chop 🔥🔥 and skills 🔥🔥🔥💓❤🙆🙆🙆🙅
Wow!!! She’s so clean with everything! Cute & talented!
Joshua's expressions when hears some slick and funky bass are terrific.
LOVE THE SETUP, THE CYMBAL ANGLES AND THAT PHENOMENAL FILL @ 3:11!!!!!🔥🔥🔥😎👍 KILLED IT!!!!!

@@bigralph1978 My day is nearly over, different time zone apparently, but being the procrastinator that I am, I'll follow your suggestion tomorrow....
I wanna know who is giving this vid a thumbs down. Really? This young lady killed it!
More importantly... WHY?!
She has great technique and very musical
She's actually a very technical musician. Everything well calculated before played...little less from the soul but very impressive fo sure!!
Man it's about time you put Anika in your reactions lol. She has alot of great songs her and there band made. Can't wait to see more bro.
Huge Fan of Anika Niles, one of my favorite drummers. Love her drumming style and techniques. Much Love for Anika!!!
She is by far the best female drummer in the world. No other female plays on this crazy level. Most male drummers can't play this stuff. Keep up the good work Anika.👍👍👍
She's a phenomenal drummer for sure.
I been listening to her for a while she's definitely in my top five and top 3 ladies
I'm not being snarky, I'm genuinely curious lmao but which female drummers top her?
every musician man's dream girl!
I get more enjoyment by watching you enjoy your featured drummers! Keep doing what you do: it is blessing us viewers!
My God what a woman! 😍😍😍That was extreme Josh! Always fire content. Love this channel💯💯💯
She cold. That’s it. Nothing else. Just..cold
her timing is just so accurate

Hi Joshua,
yeah, she is a damn beast. An I love her chops and those nasty switches in feeling. Do you know her song "queenz". Awesome! Greetings from germany!
Some say those ghost notes are still haunting that studio to this day.
4:37 - What is she doing? That short sequence between ride, snare, and hi-hat was just amazing!
Sensational, she plays a lot!
Wow, she's amazing!!
Super amazing balance and technique! Reminds me of Terry Bozio big time, I mean just as good.
Смотрю и слушаю каждый день. Не устану🥰
Eu amo ANIKA NILLES 🥁🥁🥁
I feel hints of Luke Holland in there .. excellent all around.. ps I continue to just love this channel.. watching it grow makes me so happy!! Love from ATL -
Saw her with Jeff Beck just before he passed she's a stunning musician
Outstanding!
Anika is the best drummer out there atm.
Brabo!
Até vc aqui! Kkkkkkkk vc toca demais

It's like she always does her best to play off time 😂
And nails it every time! Love her
hahaha it's her strong suit I can't even try
The syncopation is SICK!
She has her own natural metronome
One word: BEAST!!
Taking lessons from her a few years ago was dope, too! 👌🏽
My favorite top female drummer.
Switch ups are next level stuff!
Wooooow!
You go girl👍👍💛
Yo! you finally got to my girl! I’ve been following her since hit like a girl
