    Great job and incredible competence at such a young age. As an older drummer with some experience and having gone through a kind of adolescence of music learning I'd like to give some advice but not based on any critique from this performance but a caveat for future uploads. I can see the aquired technique, I can hear the confidence in the sounding of the drum voices and timing in the execution. At some stage in your journey make sure to team up with non drummers. Ensemble work with educate your musical sensibilities as far as your role within a composition and it's performance. Here you nailed the energy and intensity of this piece as done in the movie. In non fiction, real life music conservatories that drum performance from the movie would be too bombastic for an orchestra. The movie part was inconsiderate of the overall orchestral or band cohesion as the drum part played rather loud for nearly all of the piece while cluttering up the piece with angular and very jutting tom accents that plainly steam roll over the other players parts and sounds. The result is a piece that is now a drum exhibition showcase rather than a moving or audience involving production. The song reduced to being a novel vehicle for one drummers want to show case ability or skill. You are so right to want to recreate this as you had here , and so well done btw, but my caveat mentioned above is for your general and future development on the instrument as you mature musically with each passing year. Show what you can do now, I implore you really, but do have some regular contact and practice with an ensemble of your other non drumming musical peers behind the scenes, if you aren't already doing that. About this upload, well done! Very impressive! I enjoyed it! As for my wanting to give some kind of advice? Take with a pinch of salt if you are already nerding out with non drummers in practice room, not shown in the movie but a real life feature of music school life, but if not then take my advice with consideration by looking to include ensemble work around your personal drum practice routine. Keep it up overlap and a 10 out of 10 from me for your work shown here

    Hi guy ! It will soon be 10 years since I've been playing drums (I'm 16) and I can tell you that this piece is far from being one of the easiest pieces, in any case a big congratulations to you ! But I had a question, did you learn the pieces by heart and did you redo them all at the time of the show or did you work on these pieces for a long time to know how to play it to perfection without replaying everything that happens in the movie literally ? Here is my question and congratulations again ! 👍👍

      I watched the movie and watched multiple drum covers on it and slowly figured it out. It was all muscle memory after practicing for about a month straight. As you can see, I still made plenty of mistakes! Thanks for the comment and good luck!

      I also can’t read music so the rest of the song was learned by ear, and that is the most complex part
