    I agree with you that players need to have something they keep coming back to in a loop or else your audience won't follow the groove, but I think you need to hear what you want to play in your head and getting it from your brain to, and through the drums is the musical expression.
    I didn't hear you mention having ideas for drums that you felt the necessity to vocalize on your drums which I feel is vitally important.

    He’s a drum genius. Him and Louis Cole are the outstanding modern drummers for me

    There is no melody there...It is so odd timed that no normal music lover would get into it.....

      he is literally a jazz musician playing a solo and you’re saying it’s bad that he’s using syncopated phrasing 🤡🤡

      For future readers, the first solo is in 4/4 and the figure on the floor tom is "1 2 3" at the top of the 4-bar phrase, in the exact same rhythm as "Hot Cross Buns".

      It doesn't sound horrible. You don't like it. There's a big difference there.

      I think the sound is incredible. That super clean, studio, church music style drumming sounds bad to my ears
