It's a brave soul that takes on any Rush track, there are no two songs in which the drumming is similar to any other, The Professor would not allow himself that luxury. Well done, Brooke, your drums are tuned perfectly, there are way too many "drummers" that overlook that important detail, and your expertise shines on this one. Neil would give you one of his rare smiles on hearing you play. RIP Neil Elwood Peart.
The notion that the drum tracks on Rush songs are not similar is not accurate. The grove Peart played during the Keyboard solos in Subdivisions is exactly the same grove he plays in the interludes in The Spirit of the Radio. He also begins many tom runs with a triplet before running down the toms. He also does some off beat accents on cymbals while playing a groove where he hits a different part of the kit on the beat. In subdivisions, both of the pieces he engages are cymbals. In The spirit of the radio he does this in the hook playing the cymbal on the off beat and a floor tom on the beat. Don't get me wrong, I think he was a master at crafting drum parts and I'm a big fan of his work. I am in the process of learning 3 Rush songs off the transcriptions. That's how I know there are similarities. @@zwastiunburzy3688
What sets you apart from most others is you hit all the ghost notes on the snare. I don't think people know how many extra notes that Neil is hitting in most songs.
Brilliant job Brooke. Subdivisions is a show of strength for many drummers, very intricate, played it myself many times- took me ages to pat down. Peart gone but never forgotten, the best for the discerning..........
The acoustics in that room, the drum tuning, the audio balance and EQ amongst all the percussion, and of course your playing, is absolute heaven to my ears.
Excellent point. Peart was absolutely ridiculous. I feel as though he often put way too much into his writings and I also feel they were always just amazing in just about every way!!
Definitely not there were many missed notes and many extra notes and the ride pattern wasn’t in a 6/4. Not even hating at all. I just know every corner of this song
So many copy Peart technically, you somehow managed to get his feel with the technical side. Very nice. I was going to listen for 10 sec max but I was immediately struck by the great pocket and feel you have. Bravo!
Brooke you are a very talented drummer! 🔥🥁🤘I've been following you for several years and it's always a great pleasure to see your precision in playing combined with fluency, complex pieces make them stand out in all their musical magic... you can see and hear every stroke you make in your skill. You Deserve a Great Group to Play! I wish you the best on the music scene, you deserve it! Thanks for the covers you always play for us! one of your European followers kindly🤘👍
Sometimes drummers miss how important the hi-hat is in pretty much everything Neil ever played. I've listened to this song hundreds of times since it first came out, and many of those times only tuned in on the hi-hat and snare. I must say, you really did the hi-hat justice! "Pratt" would be proud. As for me, this was an impressive cover. Well done.
@@mattdelany6799 are you serious? That baseless, unwarranted comment just told the internet that you're extremely insecure in your own playing, if you can even play at all, and that there is a very good chance that you are misogynistic. How about you go get a little fishing boat and find a lake to troll on?
Never can get enough of listening to you little sister! I say that because we’ve been watching you since you was a kid ! you are such a joy and such a sweet solid human being and very talented and you play drums beautifully, keep rocking little sister we got your back always💝
That was incredible! 😮 As a 60 year old who’s been a Rush fan from my mid teens, I’d given up hope of ever seeing a young person being able to play like this. I hope you’re in a band that allows you full use of your amazing talent.
Tight measure. Great feel. (Sensitivity). Great swing (groove). Buttery fills. Hi hat? Ride bell? Easy work. Your own spice here and there (intentionally). Yeah, bet this right up. If I were Mr. Peart, I'd literally be honored and smiling. Yup.
Wonderfull, you're great! Very good nice job... congratulations, you're top level of new generation drummers and drinking in the right source... Great work, Brook... love it... 👋👍🤏🤘✌🥁🎼🥁🎵🥁🎶🥁
'The Professor ' would give you top marks on this performance Brooke. I usually only get to say this to guitarists, but your instrument has incredible tone! Incredible performance!😊
Excellent. Loved the tuning of the drums and how the whole kit was mixed. Fantastic performance as well. I expected to be impressed and I was not disappointed.
Another song from rush that is timeless, you done very well with it Brook, Neil Peart would give you a big thumbs up for execution playing he’s not an easy drummer in his technique very complexed and amazingly creative talent truly one of the all time great legendary drummers great job Brook and Rock On 🤘✌️
@timothymartin2137 At 56 now I know how that goes all too well. But Signals was my intro when my friend introduced me to Rush on his Alpine stereo Oct 82. But ask me where I set my car keys a hour ago. Don't know lol
Many drummers who cover this look like they are struggling and you look so darn relaxed. I agree with many here who say your kit sounds great. Keep up the excellent work.
From one Drummer to another great job on nailing Subdivisions, definitely not one of the easier Rush songs to play, I wore out my vinyl copy of Subdivisions learning this track back in 1982 (yep I'm old), my cover band had an upcoming gig and this was one of the songs in our set list, challenging to say the least, and BTW love your take on utilizing Gravity Blasts on the snare, not professor approved LOL but he would be proud of you. Keep up the continued great drumming, and practice, practice, practice...
That was fantastic. Many people who cover The Professor may hit the all the notes but they don't have the sound. Brooke C hits the notes and with the power
I rarely ever comment on the internet. I have to say I have been watching your videos for a few years now and always wondered when you would top ‘The Pot’ by Tool…and this is by far your BEST! Neil Peart is the greatest percussionist that ever lived and I’m sure he’s smiling down at you. Perfection!
I'm with the other guy I've been listening to RUSH And watching Neil on the drums and I have a pretty good ear and you nailed it, Neil kept every limb moving and uses odd timing signatures, overhead views prove that it's very very challenging
wow! been watching you for a few years now and I can say--that was more relaxed and played out like a pro than most could do, and that is saying something considering we are talking about arguably one of Neil's best records. great job!
Awesome job. The hi-hat/snare fill after the 2nd “be cast out” lyric has got to be one of the coolest things ever in this song. Its done a few times throughout it and U nailed it every time. Great Job!

Drums are tuned to perfection. Peart would be proud!
Indeed!
Not really.
@jumpinjojo and there it is, folks. Time for another booster shot, buddy.
@@rarefiedhermetic792Oh I apologize for disagreeing with you you. Hope I didn’t hurt your feelings. 🙄
So incredibly talented
People will be studying this man forever. You’ve done a wonderful job.
I was thinking the same thing.
She's not a man and yes Neil Peart ................... HAHA
I love the tone of your drums. It makes me feel hopeful that your generation will keep Rush in our hearts.
Exactly what I was thinking but you said it first lol.
Sweet Woody Snare🥰
Rush is going to go down in history as the Beethoven of progressive rock.
Love the punchy base drum

Well said. Can you tell, what tuning are the drums in? Thx!
@@CatsInHats-S.CrouchingTiger Not exactly sure, but I do know that Brooke's kit is tuned to whatever tuning Neil used in this song.

They don’t, I know a couple guys that think they are rad but they only play half the song!
So damn true. Not sure if video is just better these days but I am not sure if NP was even hitting those as often.
She added things that were not there before
Absolutely 💯
4:28 holy crap
There's a glimpse of hope when the youth plays rush. Awesome work. Neil would appreciate your work. Rip Professor.
IN the pocket; LOVE your nuances and attention to detail, note for note. Neil is smilin'. We ALL are......tremendous talent Brooke.
To be able to play this so perfectly and with only half of Neil's kit is a testament to Brooke's overwhelming talent. Awesome work!
Great cover. It just shows us that you don't need a 20 piece drum kit to get the job done.
Picking a technical genius like Neil Peart is a bold choice, nailed it 👌
Love the overhead view. It lets the watcher see all of your foot and hand work. Very nice job.
Agree with that! So cool!! Cheers!
I closed my eyes and listened.
Neil is that you?
Amazing.
The best cover I have ever watched so far... well done... The professor Neil Peart. . Rest in peace...
Brilliant job Brooke. Subdivisions is a show of strength for many drummers, very intricate, played it myself many times- took me ages to pat down. Peart gone but never forgotten, the best for the discerning..........
Niel would approve! Well done.
Guitar player here. Subdivisions is my favorite Rush song, Neal would be so proud to see how well you can play.
The acoustics in that room, the drum tuning, the audio balance and EQ amongst all the percussion, and of course your playing, is absolute heaven to my ears.
Brooke, you have grown your skills as a drummer so much... What an awesome tribute to the Professor ... Neil Peart.... Love it!❤
I always consider a Rush song to be the best test of any drummer's talent. You NAILED that! Absolutely perfect. RIP Neil Peart.
Excellent point. Peart was absolutely ridiculous. I feel as though he often put way too much into his writings and I also feel they were always just amazing in just about every way!!
The best test? Really?!
Never stop. This one takes us on a spiritual journey. Cheers.
Absolute PERFECTION! Mr. Peart would be so proud, the best Rush Subdivisions drum cover ever!
Definitely not there were many missed notes and many extra notes and the ride pattern wasn’t in a 6/4. Not even hating at all. I just know every corner of this song
@@streetworkoutnation6851Many "opinions" are biased for ooobvious reasons sadly...
Not even close
@@antonioecheverria2727 there’s no opinions here. She played it wrong in many ways and that’s a fact. Not biased
@@streetworkoutnation6851 I think he was talking about the opinions of the simps applauding hot chicks online.

So many copy Peart technically, you somehow managed to get his feel with the technical side. Very nice. I was going to listen for 10 sec max but I was immediately struck by the great pocket and feel you have. Bravo!
Thank you Brooke. Always a pleasure.
I saw Neil play this song in person some 40 years ago at The Summit in Houston, Texas! You nailed it! KUDOS TO YOU!
Best Neil Peart cover by far. Simply flawless.
Brooke you are a very talented drummer! 🔥🥁🤘I've been following you for several years and it's always a great pleasure to see your precision in playing combined with fluency, complex pieces make them stand out in all their musical magic... you can see and hear every stroke you make in your skill.

This is one of my favourite Rush songs, and that was spot on, timing, tone, everything! Awesome 😃
Nice to see the younger generation keeping up with the classics.
Wow! The Professor would be proud. You nailed it kid🎉
You are a world class player, your drums sound awesome, & you’re beautiful to boot! You definitely did the professor justice!
World class? Have you seen Thomas Lang, or Vinnie? Come on, man. Not even close.
@@mattdelany6799 Lang is natural wonder.
I’m a 61 year old Rush fan. Just what you do with your right foot blows me away. So good. You make me happy

Most do not appreciate how difficult the technique on display is here. Nicely done young lady, thank you for sharing
Dużo się dzieje . Uwielbiam RUSH .Dobrze zagrane 👋👋👋
One of my favorite songs of ALL time, not just Rush songs. Good job, Brooke C. I like how you changed things up a bit.
Brilliant drumming when I started playing drums in 1978 very few men played drums so it's great to see talented women playing excellent drums in 2024.
I'm from Brazil, you play great, I loved your technique, for me it's the best there is here on UA-cam
Wonderfull, you're great! Very good nice job... congratulations, you're top level of new generation drummers and drinking in the right source... Great work, Brook... love it... 👋👍🤏🤘✌🥁🎼🥁🎵🥁🎶🥁

Keep rocking! Great song!! 😊
I've never seen anyone playing this song as faithfully to the original arrangement as you do, congratulations!
so happy to see kids / young adults playing music like this.
It's such and exceptional song. Most Neil Peart songs are a challenge, but this is one is a particular hill to climb. Well done.
Great job -- one of my favs from Rush.
One of my favorite songs by them! Right on. You've got a great sense of feel.
Another song from rush that is timeless, you done very well with it Brook, Neil Peart would give you a big thumbs up for execution playing he’s not an easy drummer in his technique very complexed and amazingly creative talent truly one of the all time great legendary drummers great job Brook and Rock On 🤘✌️
That was f'n awesome! This young lady has been practicing!
What do ya know? A modest, fully clothed woman playing great drums. Kudos!
Even the ghost notes. At 14 1982 this was my anthem. Great job on this drum clinic of a masterpiece!
@timothymartin2137 At 56 now I know how that goes all too well. But Signals was my intro when my friend introduced me to Rush on his Alpine stereo Oct 82. But ask me where I set my car keys a hour ago. Don't know lol
Sick. My favorite Rush song.
I have always loved Neil’s use of cymbal domes, and Subdivisions is one of his best examples.
Great chops, very natural and powerful feel, nice selection and super sound!
Huge RUSH fan here. Wow, great job young lady

Fantastic!!! Brooke that is as amazing. Neil is smiling. Love the hair too; true rocker.
That was fantastic. Many people who cover The Professor may hit the all the notes but they don't have the sound. Brooke C hits the notes and with the power
Love Rush, loved what I heard and saw .. perfection
Wow! Your fluidity and naturalness is mesmerizing. Great job young lady! Neil would definitely approve!
Brooke you are the best female drummer I have ever seen. Keep up the good work. Love your style.
Very well done. A beautiful tribute to Mr Peart’s work. Thank you!
RUSH fan since 1980. This is good.
What did I just watch?? That was nuts!! Perfection
Amazing job. Love that you're palying Rush. You obviously know and appreciate the greatest drummer of all time\ and his contribution to the art.
It's soooo awesome to watch someone grow up to be a drum God.
She's Female:
It's 'Goddess'.
Stunningly impressive and such a difficult song to play. Neil Peart is smiling down on you. 🙂
Big tune! You played it very well. RUSH is the greatest.
So pure, so precise. Exquisite attention to detail, and effortlessly presented. Absolutely Brilliant!
Thank you young lady. I was there live 11 times.
Another masterclass performance from this beautiful angel. Thanks for doing my favorite song Brooke.
Beautiful angel? Why not great musician?

LOVE THOSE LEFT HAND DOUBLES! Fantastic work, and super relaxed clean playing.
Every minute detail of what makes this song a percussive masterpiece beautifully captured. Outstanding. Subscribed!
Wow! Completely in control! Nice! Thank you.
Girl you are awesome I loved it. What a wonderful job you’ve done, Neil perk would be proud of you.
I knew after the first 5 seconds this was going to be spot on. Great job!

Great sound! Great job with those change ups!! 👍🏼👍🏼 Smooth
Sounds so clean. Lovely playing Brooke.
Brooke that was so awesome! PEART IS MY FAVORITE DRUMMER OF ALL TIME AND YOU DID THAT SONG RIGHT!!
amazing! I feel Neil would be proud.
Brooke, absolutely incredible! So grateful that you took the time to capture every single detail, Rush fans and the band themselves I’m sure are proud
You have self-elevated to a level not accessible to most of us. A Truly Outstanding Performance (ATOP). I thoroughly enjoyed this. Thank you!
