Holy hell her drumming is so effortlessly precise
Jessica is such a badass drummer. She just nails everything they try. 🙌
Those toms sound fantastic! Great performance and great explanation of phase relationships.
This was the song that got me into them and is still one of my absolute favourites from them, it's definitely one of Dolmayan's best and this mix sounds just as killer. Great job, guys
Please do Sexy Sadie or Long, Long Long by the Beatles or Coffee & TV by Blur!!!
Definatly neded my headphones to hear lowend/details. Thanks for showing the in-phase vs out-of-phase to hear the difference.
Black Sabbath - War Pigs has got some epic drums if you fancy a look at that
loved hearing the toms in and out of phase.
The meters drums, Cissy Strut for example !
Absolutely rocking!
Thanks for the excellent tips on phase relation!
great work! would love to something by modest mouse please. either their debut, good news, or we were dead. the drums on their debut have really grown on me for whatever reason. they’re my favorite 90s post-hardcore/emo/indie drums .
Retrospective version of Chop Suey while riding on the "metro" 😂
WoW!!!I didn't know Jessica is the drummer for "Covet" now.Very cool.Ill hafta check out "City Mouth" her drumming Rips.👍
How about some punk drums? “Heavy Metal Winner” by Consumed, or something from the first Ramones album?
suggestion for future recreation - Beach Boys "Do It Again". Oddly similar to G.Clinton's "Atomic Dog". One hella processed, other reverse (perhaps?)
Please talk about how you tune the drums in this series. I love these videos, but feel that's a crucially omitted factor.
Please do Siempre fuiste Mi Amor by GIT! They were an argentinian band from the 80s. The snare sound on that record is insane.
Would love to see you guys do Flim by Aphex Twin. Seeing your guys take on a DNB drum sound would be sick
Y'all should do Sublime’s “What I Got” or “Santeria”
Guitars sounds like China bootleg
The overall performance is incredible, truly impressive! However, I must admit that I'm not a fan of the isolated sound of the kick drum. Does anyone else feel the same?
How about the drums on Big Thief’s “U.F.O.F.”? Most of my engineer friends have been trying to figure out that sound since it dropped.
Muse or Thrice
For the love of god it's a polarity switch, not a phase switch 🙈
How does everyone get these drum parts wrong??? The parts at the beginning of each verse are alternating hi hat and snare not both hands on the hi hat.
And before anyone thinks they know better, watch and listen to the SOAD video. Particularly the beginning of the second verse. It shows the drummer playing as I described. You also hear the lighter snare notes throughout whereas she only hits the hi hats
if you’re gonna be a loudmouth about it, you should look up the isolated drum track on youtube 😆 he for sure plays the beat you’re talking about live but it’s 100% not on the record. theres also a clear punch-in during the verses, which leads me to believe someone had him change the drum beat to hi-hats only.
Curious why Zildjian Ks are used for just about every video in this series even though John Dolmayan exclusively plays Paiste
Maybe it’s what they have in the studio, like that old Gretsch kit, or the Ludwig Vistalites?
@@joermnyc true, that would be the case for most studios, but you'd think that since this one has connections to an instrument dealer website, they could use that as means to get something else to use, even if just for one video.
why ?
why is it the wrong key

Ummm.. you go to MGK when you want to cover this band. Not just anybody.... 👍🏻👈🏻
this seems to be some quick mixing experiment, with the phasing, the significant timing issues and the thin sound… still okay to watch.
