If I were Greyson I'd sneak into a local jazz club and act like a naive kid who just wants to try the drums out for one song and then leave all their jaws on the floor.
Nah man they use it in labs as a scientific metric for the (only theoritically for mere mortals) complete and full lack of anything at all besides the drumming itself
I'm not a fan of jazz at all. But a good jazz drummer is probably one of the most entertaining things you could ever watch & this kid is absolutely phenomenal.
I’m a metal drummer, I’ve been playing since the mid 90s. I feel like a would have to start completely over with learning in order to have technique to play like this guy. This kid is F🤬ing awesome 👏🙌
@@Adrian-wd4rn Pull your head outta yer ass. Greyson couldn't play something like this if he devoted 3 full years to it. ua-cam.com/video/i5Wku8b4LVo/v-deo.html&ab_channel=AlexTerrible
Craziest part is that he's only 18. You'd expect to see something like this from someone older with more experience but I can only assume he was in jazz since middle school. Absolute legend in the making.
My Dad grew up in the 40s, started playing Trombone as a kid in the late 1930s played all through high school got in to the Naval Academy Band, ended up playing with some hellacious studio musicians through the 40s and 50s. He told me about some amazing drummers he played Jazz and Big band with. Several years outside of the navy after the Korean war he stopped for law school. However he did continue arranging music on the side as a hobby and he did play Trombone from time to time to keep his chops up. He passed away in 2013, but I still have his Trombone that at one point belonged to Tommy Dorsey. ( I know this story does not deal with drums much but just wanted to tell it since Listening to this kind of music always reminds me of him)
Best drumming I've seen in a long time... hard-pressed to find anything better from a technical standpoint. Really cool that metal drummer is watching jazz. Music is music, no need to gatekeep.
@@morbidmanmusic first, learn how to spell. Second, if you cannot respect another musician, specially a legend such as Stewart, your place is not here.
@@magrildz you were cool until you brought up subs and content lmao. You act like everyone has to have their own channel and accolades to have an opinion. I do agree though, Stewart is great
Greyson and El Estepario Siberiano are the two drummers that just worked their asses off perfecting their craft and they exploded into the drumming scene and for good reason. Like these guys are just unmatched. Like we dont get to see the hours of practice they put in and their progress to get here.
I am a metal drummer through and through, but I will never deny the talent and skill it takes to play Jazz/Big Band music!! That was inspiring and humbling!!
The dude is a prodigy, it looks like the souls of Buddy Rich, Louie Bellson, Max Roach and a bunch of other great jazz drummers all just decided to reincarnate in one person.
I met Bellson on accident in high school. He used to have a practice studio in the back of my local music shop in San Jose. Old man came out while I was doing whatever and he just came up and introduced himself. Told me to just keep practicing. Signed an old tom head for me. Zero clue I’d just met a legend lol 😂
People say drums are only good for rhythm, adding punchyness to a song, etc, etc. Because it's not a tonal instrument like a piano or guitar, it can't evoke the same emotions. Well, I'mma have to call bullshit on that. This was beautiful. So much heart and soul went into this, and you could see and hear it. Bravo. Simply wonderful.
I'm pretty sure he's miles teller drum body double.....I know that's not miles playing all that stuff.....his motions kinda look similar to the over head drum shots at the end with him playing caravan just to piss Simmons character off
He does a lot of wrist turning to roll across the set. The drum angle helps carry him to the next drum I would guess. His traditional grip techniques are crazy.
So many great comments from other drummers on here. For me, I was expecting greatness and wasn't disappointed but from a drumming perspective one of his many outstanding skills was his transitions between hard and soft, fast and slow. Remarkable!
Thank you so much 66Samus for sharing and reacting to a magnificent drummer. I laughed out loud at your reactions because you are one funny dude and got choked up at how great Greyson is. Good job to both of you.
Doesn't matter what genre of music you like, when you see something like this you just gotta respect the shit out of that quality of playing. That was some next level talent. Massive respect. Also. SEX....
I'm neither a drummer, nor a Jazz aficionado but even I can tell this kid is already a master. I can only I aging where he could be in a decade! Thanks for bringing this to us.
I just love the emotion he plays with, and how you can see how he is feeling each hit, and he has full awareness of everything going on with his set. Absolutely stunning stuff!
What I love about those videos where you react to other drummers is that even a really good drummer like you, can be absolutely flashed by someone playing the drums. Yep and I really get heavy Buddy Rich vibes too
Different styles require different skills. I played in many punk bands and occasional metal bands but I studied jazz for 4 years with a teacher just for fun and it really opens up your playing. He introduced me to drummers like Elvin Jones, John Coltrane, Steve Smith, Steps Ahead, Phil Collins, Brand X, Tony Williams, Miles Davis etc It was an education. I learned crossovers from Bonham who got them from the jazz greats like Papa Jo etc.
@66Samus - I just have to thank you for opening my eyes to metal drumming. I used to brush it off, but after watching your videos I have gained a real appreciation for it... THANKS!!!
Remember everyone going this far…consider the source- it’s only a bass players critique and opinion. But he did score an extra 5 points for informing us where that foul smell just came from.
I’m speechless..just incredible dude my mind is blown how in tf a being can possibly do this. So many highlights of the video and that freestyle was absolutely NUTTY!
wow! I mean we all need a samus version ;) but seriously this dude shreds! jazz drums they say is the hardest to get right and he just blew it out the water!! legend!
As someone who loves the guitar, I react to this the way I react to Shawn Lane videos. My sons a drummer and we watched this on drumeo so many times. On the drumeo vid, they said that he improvised this because the recorded track stopped working so he played until it came back in.
Neil used to say how dismayed he was at these types of ideas. Seeing someone great should never discourage. It should encourage to practice and work and get better, which he did until the end.
what I've noticed about the virtuosoes who have come one the scene in the five-ish years on any instrument is their articulation is impeccable. it really is remarkable to watch as someone who's played music since I was 13 and played professionally for years.
Okay I’m a metal drummer to my core but now I wanna learn Jazz. That was unbelievably sick! Thanks for the variety Samus. The playing is incredible Grayson.
JESUS F*** I can't decide if he makes me want to get back into full-time drumming or just switch instruments? Brilliant stuff. He actually pulls off a few things I tried to do in my more active jazz drumming days but wasn't consistent enough (ie I f'd up a lot). Thanks for sharing.
I saw this when it came out on drumeo & watched it a few times. It's always just as incredible. I think one reason his snare is angled that way is to accommodate rim shots. He does more room shots in this song than I can count, I lost count at 22. Ohhh yuurrrrr
Greyson. Incredible job there! I really enjoy watching you play. For those players that were not introduced to the 3 R's or any other classical training, This man has it all. I am in envy of your single stroke roll speed and accuracy, moving seamlessly around your kit. I remember when learning, that holding those sticks tightly is your enemy. Holding them too loosely is the enemy of everyone around you! Thanks for the vid 66Samus.
I always enjoy your videos. While not a metal drummer, I do appreciate the time and dedication you have shown time and time again through your playing. I also find your sense of humor to be first-rate. You are funny as hell but not demeaning. What a rare talent/skill. Please continue what you do better than 99% of all the other drum commentators - providing a brilliant comments and humor. I fart in your general direction. ;-)
The really cool thing about that upside-down ride ping is that he’s not just doing it for flair - he’s getting different tones from the underside. Nothing’s just to look cool, everything’s there for a musical reason. I daren’t imagine how many hours of rudiments he puts in. As for how he memorises it… are we sure he does?
I'm 90% sure most of it's improvised, he might have memorized the stabs with the horns or something like that but beyond that I think it's all improvised :)
Thank you 66Samus for showing what can only be described as one of the most epic displays of drumming I have ever had the pleasure of hearing. Greyson is on another level, actually another fucking planet!! Those hand skills, the speed....you know, you saw. Pure genius.
I started playing music (piano) at 6 yo. By 9 I'd branched out to Sax and My all time favorite drums. My first 5 or so years were all Jazz/Swing rudiments and stick control. I am always amazed on how such a young artist has gained decades of technique and skill. As for how do you remember the songs, it's like any other. You don't think, you allow it to come out of you. Just get out of your own damn way. That's a quality not many are lucky enough to acquire. For years I had my old Slingerland Jazz set set up with the drums angled, tuned and layed out for when I'd play that style and my other set was Armed and set for the metal that was more common to get other people to come jam to. Great to see someone like Greyson bring this out to a whole new generation, that unlike you and I, never got to watch the greats like Buddy Rich play a chair on the tonight show and wonder how he got so many sounds out of the thing. Thanks to both Greyson and you for sharing this and all your content.
Two things come to mind here.... 1 is, it's great to see a young drummer respecting the old jazz standards and killing the F&(%))(*&*^ out of it. And second, it's great to see you, 66Samus, reviewing a different genre of music as I know you are a very capable drummer with the skills to kill the F&(%)*__^^$$ out of any genre of music as well! Keep building the content bud! Your humour knows no bounds............................ Jeff in Ottawa
Dude it took me a while to realize how you are. Never looked at your face before and only knew you from your old old old drum videos. Glad to see you're still playing and doing UA-cam.
Good ChrXst it's a good thing Greyson had the "band" as a prerecorded track. I think live musicians would have simply forgotten to come in even if given a cue. This was awesome to behold, and I really appreciate your bringing it to your channel even though it's not your primary genre.
Yo Samus my guy! Speaking about Greyson playing blasts… I haven’t seen that, but not long ago I saw a video of him playing Bleed by Meshuggah with double bass and all… and he fucking KILLED it too 😂
Greyson is quickly becoming one of my favorite drummers. The intensity of this blows my mind! Thanks 66Samus for your reaction, I couldnt have said it better... "holy fucking shiii...." "Oh yeeeaaahhhh"
Pros reacting to pros are the only reaction videos that work for me. I learn so much from this just on a musical theory level. I am not a drummer but I am starting on bass and this type of content is really nice to put things into context from a technical perspective and a feel perspective to understand the nuance of their groove and their timing and improvisation. Thanks Samus!
holy shit i've never been so early for a samus video. oohhhh yuurrrrrr!! edit: greyson is a fucking superstar in the making. his enthusiasm and passion during that solo...holy shit. let us all bow to our new lord and savior. 🙏
Jazz drumming to me is a completely differnet beast. It is one style I never studied and to watch it is insane. Such a great drum piece and recation video!
He channels the classic big band energy and foundation but you can clearly hear he has more dynamic range and modern sensibilities. I think that's why it's so exciting to listen to him play in 2022 despite big band drumming not being pop kusic anymore ♡
Watch him play Bleed, he nails it in a full suit. Not sure if its on the tube, may have to scroll down on his Instagram to find it. So jealous of this 19 year old.
I would have been able to do that if I didn’t get a wrist injury. That’s what I tell myself every time I see amazing drumming. Also, I’ve never had a wrist injury. Also also, I was a bass player 😂 that’s true. What amazing drumming. That was fantastic.
If I were Greyson I'd sneak into a local jazz club and act like a naive kid who just wants to try the drums out for one song and then leave all their jaws on the floor.
Just walking in all casual, looking like a normal kid... and then just going for "Moment's Notice".
He does that here on UA-cam and he doesn't even have to leave the house....
@@AnimalEdventures1 but sometimes leaving the house is ok…
That's cruel!
It’s normal skill for a modern jazz drummer.
His drumming is so clean, to the point that doctors use it to sterilize wounds.
Nah man they use it in labs as a scientific metric for the (only theoritically for mere mortals) complete and full lack of anything at all besides the drumming itself

I am not a drummer but I am starting on bass and this type of content is really nice to put things into context from a technical perspective and a feel perspective to understand the nuance of their groove and their timing and improvisation. Thanks Samus!
He has chops like Buddy, but I feel like Greyson also has Krupa's groove and swagger. He really is amazing.
This young man was born to play the drums!! OMG
The paintings are lovely btw 🔥🔥
No doubt about it, Greyson is a fuckin mad man on the drums .... Love your reaction and commentary, top tier UA-cam entertainment man !!
holy shit i've never been so early for a samus video. oohhhh yuurrrrrr!!
edit: greyson is a fucking superstar in the making. his enthusiasm and passion during that solo...holy shit. let us all bow to our new lord and savior. 🙏
Jazz drummers are amazing.
And now we get to see that man play in Sepultura . Good for him 😀
Jazz drumming to me is a completely differnet beast. It is one style I never studied and to watch it is insane. Such a great drum piece and recation video!
41 years old, have seen many styles of music, bit never the move at 2:18 where he hit the symbol from the bottom. Always good to see something new.
Have you seen bobby jzarbeck

He reminds me of Vinnie at his absolute best. Joe Morello too, of course. I love it so much, holy shit.
Greyson is one of the best out there. He can play all types of music and do it flawlessly
He channels the classic big band energy and foundation but you can clearly hear he has more dynamic range and modern sensibilities. I think that's why it's so exciting to listen to him play in 2022 despite big band drumming not being pop kusic anymore ♡
This drummer is insane. To me, he is the modern Buddy Rich.
yes
I've been drumming and producing techno for 20+ years. This was ungodly. Highly technical and creative.
Props for throwing Props . Shows your integrity
This guy will be remembered for all time as one of the greats. Awesome job!
Watch him play Bleed, he nails it in a full suit. Not sure if its on the tube, may have to scroll down on his Instagram to find it. So jealous of this 19 year old.
I would have been able to do that if I didn’t get a wrist injury. That’s what I tell myself every time I see amazing drumming. Also, I’ve never had a wrist injury. Also also, I was a bass player 😂 that’s true.
What amazing drumming. That was fantastic.
Holy cow that was amazing!!
Loved watching this with you Samus
Never heard of this guy. Thank you for bringing him into my life!
