    Two things:

    2) they are both incredible, but the most insane thing here is that they are both just doing Buddy Rich licks from what, 60 years ago? Dude remains the GOAT.

    @stickybuds05 2 роки тому +1

    This was incredibly awesome, thanks Drumeo! I grew up listening to Buddy Rich, Gene Krupa, Art Blakey, Bellson, etc. and I think Greyson has the real traditional big band sound down pat, with the accents and timing. Brandon gave it a more of a modern swing feel, a little 'straighter' and easier to digest, but also very musical. Just my opinion tho, very hard to pick a winner as in all things drumming you can't just compare two different styles

    I give it to Brandon, both killed it, chops, expressions, creativity, visual, so when you get two people as equal as they are it becomes hard to decide who won. You need to dig deeper now and judge small things like Greyson hesitated twice coming back after Brandon's rip. To me that means Greyson was intimidate by Brandson's last rip and needed to come up with something better, but it took a second and didn't flow. Other than that mad respect to my fellow NY'er Greyson, mad respect to Brandon, add this to the classic drum battle. peace

    OMFG.... you two are phenomenal, it was like watching a conversation, and you can see the respect and admiration for each other’s skill from both of you! Just the hand speed, stamina and improvisational technique is mind boggling! I can’t even fathom being able to pick a winner, I watched this a few times and still can’t say who won it, the only observational point I can make is that Grayson at his age is a bit of an enigma... maybe gives him a slight edge, but Brandon your musicality is truly epic, and btw dressed in suits while shredding kicked it up a notch! Keep up these battles!

Just amazing skill. I am glad that I know just enough about drums to understand what they are doing technically and how hard they must have studied to get to that level. These two guys are professors. I am in 3rd grade. I am humbled. Thank you for making this great video.
