It's amazing how this suddenly stops sounding like a drum solo, and starts being a complete song with full structure in benny's style, basically an example of what to think when playing a drum solo, so cool!
I've always thought Benny's solos were incredibly musical, it's why I love his drumming so much! What you've done here fits so well, it really sounds like it all was composed to be a song together! Top job you've done here!!
dude who the fuck are you? what i love about these compositions is how much you reveal about the drummer's intent in a musical context. keep it up and never stop
There were several points in this video where I forgot the music was added later. That's a testament to both Benny's drumming and your compositions. Well done!
Probably not the fastest hands or 64th note triplets on the bass drum but Benny greb is one of the most creative drummers on planet Earth listen to how many different sounds he makes with hoops and drum shells and his elbow I mean it's crazy just crazy
Goddamn outstanding as always. A big fan of your work. I would like to share an idea I had: to take a short solo and to do 2 or 3 different "takes" of arrangement on it. 3 different songs on the same solo. Cheers!
Thank you! Yeah I've been thinking about doing that as well. I think it's a great idea, and should hopefully turn out well once I find the perfect solo for it :)
Great stuff, I find drum solo more appealing when there's a little bit of music to accompany/ pair with it. It becomes like a "drum centric" part. You did a great job of complementing that drum solo.
Just found ur channel by accident with my drum teacher, both fell in love with your compositions :) keep up da good work man, can't wait for ur next upload

that more metal section near the end is AMAZING
Thanks man :)

Thank You :)
To those who wasted their time hitting the thumbs down... Where's your killer solo? THAT WAS AWESOME!!!!
your are a genius alastair , i cant stop watch these videos
Thanks man :)
I watched it sooooo many times and finally subscribed...!!! VERY-VERY-VERYYYYYYYYY...
he actually grabs it. dude that was awesome
I like how benny greb is a jazz drummer and you just put him playing to some hard rock, fucking awesome!
Haha, thank you man. :)
I wouldn't say he is a jazz drummer. It's more a culmination of funk, rock, metal, fusion, jazz and even folk.
I want to give this a lot more thumbs up than one.
Oh man, the B3 at 0:46....this was awesome. Also, THAT FLOOR TOM.
B3?
@@dinospumoni5611 Think he's reffering to the organ sound. Hammond B3...
4:39 saved it
if you make a mistake, repeat it and act like it was calculated eheh
That made it more imressive tbh.
@@Wickerdrummer nah he was just flipping It because he was holding It upside down after catching it from the near drop
That was bad ass
I STRONGLY RECOMMEND YOU WATCH THE ACAPELLA FIRST, AND THEN COME BACK TO THIS.
IT IS 200 TIMES MORE REWARDING!!!
ALASTAIR YOU ARE A FREAK OF NATURE!!
Thanks a lot Simon! :)
@@AlastairTaylor77 NO, THANK YOU!!!
It's like we have the same favorite drummers. Cool!
Dude whaaaattt this is unreal!!!! I’m stunned, truly
That roll at the end was just wonderful.
Holy shit man. This and the Garstka video are absolutely insane.
Thanks dude :)
Literally two of my favorite videos ever
I‘m loving it 👍
Thanks man :)
So much talent, quite unbelievable really.
INSTANT SUB! holy shit is this amazing.
Thanks dude, much appreciated :)
Nothing to say except amazing
Thank you :)
Do more of Benny greb pls and keep up the good work
Great!
And the Dennis Chambers tribute at the end...
you're a fucking genius!!!!! wow
Glad you liked the video :)
*speechless*
Cheers :)
Well Done. I really don't know what else to type. Bro straight Killin set. You have to excuse me I've been sleeping under a rock for a few years
He’s able to put always something new in his drum solo and songs.. he makes everything simple and effective. God bless Benny
Possibly my favorite. Nice job!
The music you add is almost always better than what the artists use themselves in other videos... congrats
Thank you man. :)
DUDE !
This is insane
Thanks :)
Fantastic, puts the solo into context.
This is pure awesomeness. Just WOW. Benny should be exposed to this work art!!!!!!
I just want to tell you, even before having watched this video, thanks
I love Benny. And I know this is gonna be incredible.

Thank you :)
breathtaking!
Thank you :)
Wow that was unreal thank you!
Thanks man :)
What!? Jeez that performance!
It seems like a great way to start a composition with the drummer. It changes the dynamic i think.
You have a serious talent and a keen eye for detail. Subscribed.
This is a very cool piece! From now on all i wanna do is solos and make band mates write to it when Im done.
Haha thank you! It's a really fun and interesting way to make music. Definitely worth trying out. :)
Probably not the fastest hands or 64th note triplets on the bass drum but Benny greb is one of the most creative drummers on planet Earth listen to how many different sounds he makes with hoops and drum shells and his elbow I mean it's crazy just crazy
That was very nice. Great job man. I hope Benny sees this. I can't imagine him not loving it.
Goddamn outstanding as always. A big fan of your work.
I would like to share an idea I had: to take a short solo and to do 2 or 3 different "takes" of arrangement on it. 3 different songs on the same solo.
