Mike has unlocked a level of independence and phrasing combined with physical endurance and touch I’m not sure we’ve seen before. I can only draw comparisons with tony williams or dennis chambers, and that is very good company to be in. But I dont even know if I’ve seen anyone sustain the kind of speed and power mike does for long periods of time while continuing to use intentional phrasing, which is what makes any of his chops actually meaningful.
In rehearsal Mike told the bassist, “Ok when you see my 25th dreadlock from the front start throwing up the peace sign, that’s when you come back in. Cool? Cool.”
Not a fan of Istanbul cymbals but they really achieved and nailed that electronic clap sound with that clap stack they were going for. That clap stack sounds sick
Yeah I think I've seen the video, it was on Instagram live, couldn't watch the live stream cause I wasn't with headphones and the sound was all shshshshshj
Nowhere near, I'm afraid. 1,000,000 notes in a 7 minute video would be 2381 notes per second. I would guess he's going around 10 notes a second on average so that's somewhere in the region of 4000 notes.
@@HugoStiglitz88 this is a harsh reality for many of us to sit with. but so true... lol! I feel like people aren't ready to accept that Mike's chops have clearly surpassed all those who have paved the way for him.
This is the single greatest Zildjian ad I have ever seen.
Damn good Istanbul Clap Stack ad too!
You know you've reached expert mode in drumming when you're going that fast, keeping a straight face and not clenching your teeth or tensing up.
And while keeping your glasses on your nose!
I think he would still be alright if he made funny face and clenched his jaw, but what do I know
There is literally no other drummer on earth who sounds like Mike Mitchell. Pure creativity at the highest level
Alex Silvergold literally super human
check out the man Chris daddy dave
He did adopt a lot from Chris Dave
Google Sucks haha same here
I hear a lot of Ronald Bruner influence in his playing. those spaz chop moments right back to a soft laid back groove then build back up lol
The focus of the rest of the band is also INSANE, so so tight.
3:27 that switch up was other worldly. THE LEVEL YOU HAVE TO BE AT TO PLAY THIS WAY IS VERY HIGH 🔥
This guy has discovered that new dimension in drums that only he is able to communicate in.

It’s the new generation of drummers that I highly doubt are from this planet. Dude is a new breed of cosmic drumming genius.
Probably best performance i have ever heard/seen, i it's the first time i see him..
Man, this is so crazy. Incredibly good, this guy came from other planet to play drums.
If he did speed, his arms would fly off, or he'd blow up lol

I swear I watch this almost daily, I learn something new every Single time
This guy is the next living legend!!!!
This is like being able to speak 3742 languages at once... crammed into one paragraph.
The cross-section of incredible ability and phenomenal ideas.
The GOAT Mike is a phenom and super natural drummer!!! Nothing on earth compares to his gift talent and skill!
Crazy phrasing and licks 🔥🔥
Wow man... no words... totally nailed it..!!!
Amazing. Absolutely amazing
Thank you for posting this up. Locking down.
Makes me feel alive! Thank you!
JUST SIMPLY WONDERFUL BEAUTIFUL MIND BLOWING DRUMMING!!!! 🙏🏿🙏🏿 Thank You Mike Mitchell. 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿

I was looking for the 808, then I said, “Nah, that’s all Mike.”
Agreed. Insanity. I know drum kit is all combinations but he has really cool combinations and swift spontaneity.
A dream: see Mike Mitchaell, Maison Guirdy and Shariq doing it...
Mike and Maison 😪😪😪
@@favourfavier1735 there's a little video with mike and Maison, but it don't last more than 30 seconds
Yeah I think I've seen the video, it was on Instagram live, couldn't watch the live stream cause I wasn't with headphones and the sound was all shshshshshj
There's also a vid of shariq and mike

props to the other musicians for keeping time. I would've fallen to pieces
If he walked up to the gates at area 51, they'd probably just invite him right in.

What’s the difference between this and Billy Cobham in his prime? I can’t tell the difference. High praise for Mike Mitchell.
I haven't heard Billy do shit like this

Completely mind blowing. Is this a concert from the MCU? Asgard's house band?
Did ya brought that triple-stack cymbal from chris dave
😳 thats ridiculously ridiculous lol
A L I E N S
I got confused and read "Mitch Mitchell" instead lol
Imagine this guy as Jimi's drummer...
At first I wasn't sure if he was using a double pedal lol
Yo what's the name of dis spirit fingers track
Skylar Allingham it’s called “You”
michennom

Spirit Fingers
Again I say... his language is soooooo vast

Not a single stick-click on a rim. Not one. Blistering incredible speed.
My printer doesn't have enough ink to print the TAB on this...
