Aric Improta is one of the most creative drummers in the world, and he also happens to be a world-class artist. So, we’re going to dive into how our emotional response to artwork can influence music.

    As an artist and drummer this is one of my favorite Drum Department episodes! Very educational and inspirational to both my art and music. I have a Digitech Vocal Processor that I am definitely going to hook up to my electronic drums to experiment with that after watching this. I never would have thought of doing this until now. Thank you!

    Aric Improta is the most creative drummer on the planet, period. I am inspired every time I watch him play drums or even just listen to him talk about drumming. I love how 2001: A Space Odyssey motivated him to make a cymbal "sing" in his Meinl solo. (By the way, if you'r ereading this comment and you haven't seen "Blur-Lights in the Videodrome," you need to watch it, like, now. It's jaw-dropping.)

    Well, I did not know that the synthy parts in Night Verses was all him with octapads and effects. He is an even more mind-blowing drummer than I initially thought.

  • @DizzyJerk

    I think Aric is the BEST drummer in the world. He's heavy yet very light, his fills and polyrhythms are VERY original and snazzy. His style is unlike any other I've seen and his solos are extremely next level. Watch "Copper Wasp" or "Blur-Lights in the Videodrome" He's the best...period.

    At 11:40 the painting in question is by Chinese artist Li Gongnian done in 1120-ish. I believe it is a detail as most Chinese paintings would depict the entire landscape and there would be a number of chop-seal stamps throughout one area of the work.

  • @jacksonbraman1280

    I've been screaming that he's the best drummer currently out there. I loved watching Neil Peart and Danny Carey growing up through high school, but when I discovered Night Verses, it was like discovering Tool all over again (as far as finding something brand new to you with song structure that made you think outside of what you thought music could be) and since then Aric has been my favorite drummer.

    I'm a visual artist (among other disciplines) and I create my paintings, installations, 3D works to music. I'm unable to create without music. Often a song is on repeat to sustain the mood, emotion, or train of thought to achieve the essence of the work.
    Finally, they did just show art by white male [European] artists that everyone has seen? The Mona Lisa is boring!
    I have a form of synesthesia where I see dance-choreography when I hear music.
