Best feel..anyone who hasn't heard the lettuce live in Tokyo album needs to ASAP..some of the nastiest grooving I've ever heard..best snare sound ever too
yep elfprincess pretty much got it. It's kind of like this lick my drum teacher taught me between the hi- hat and snare that goes like (HKK HKK HKK HKK HKK) all those being eighth note triplets, with the snare lining up with the hi-hat. adam deitch is just adding a hi-hat hit before the first one and lining the snare up with the second kick instead, all still 8th note triplets.
2:51: I think the lick is 16th-note triplets grouped in 4's (KRRK) between the kick and hat. It starts on the pickup to beat 4, so that the second kick (which is accented) lands on 4. So you get ([k] KRRk KRRk KRRk) with the snare on 2 and 4 (which lands on the first 'K' in the third grouping). Happy drumming, y'all.
this guy it's definitely more groovy and musically interesting than most of the most drummers out today. it's a shame that many good drummer aren't as good in making music as they are in hitting drums...
A good way to practice the lick is to use a metronome and start at a comfortable tempo (80bpm usually works for me) and increasing the tempo gradually by 4.
*correction: 2:51 is eigth-note triplets, starting on the pickup to beat four: (K) KHH KKH HKK HHK (with the snare on the first H of the 4rd grouping). There, now I can sleep tonight.
I love Adam Deitch, one of the best modern drummers. He usually endorses top brands (Tama Starclassic Bubinga, Zildjian, Evans) at the top of the line - so why did he go with Vater, and not with Vic Firth?
I love it. His drumming just feels good.

Vaters quality and consistency is much better than vic firth
he said he worked with DJ Quik. that is effin' badass
Man he looks EXHAUSTED but when you're busy like he is you deserve to have those bags under your eyes heh.
ADAM DEITCH is the best dunking drummer
They locked
evans tama vater are all the same level of popularity if you wanna look at it that way
lick at 2:51 is ridiculous
