This guy's brain is awesome! I believe that all of this has been improvised, hasn't it? the tempo is so fast and this man can creat amazing fills and rhythns so fast. That's what I Love about Gospel drummers, so much feeling, technique and style combined.
STILL ONE THE GREATEST DRUM VIDEOS EVER IN HISTORY!! 5 YEARS LATER IM STILL AMAZED ON HOW WELL HE BLAZES ON DRUMS .... NICK SMITH ONE OF THE MANY REASONS WHY I LOVE DRUMS!
Thank you Soultone Cymbals for uploading this video, and sharing your Cymbals with us. Thank you to DC California Drums also, for a beautiful kit. And a final Thank you to Nick Smith for expressing yourself through these great products, allowing us to further understand why sound truly matters. LD.
Damn, Nick! You are a monster among men! I've been following you since the Berklee shed sessions (and I'm still going to marry Amber Baker), but DUDE, you are a force of nature! Keep on keeping on.
@123drummaboy ME TOO!! Im 15 and my favorite drummer in the WORLD is nick smith!! I like study all his paradiddle stuff and am trying to apply that to my playing:D
I live in Brazil and would like to know how do I get the dishes soultone cimbals here. I enjoyed these dishes, perfect tone, opening too perfect, summarizing are great.
Great job Nick. Your main snare has a nice crack to it. If you don't mind me asking, what are your snare tensions top and bottom on your main snare? Either Tune Bot(note/frequency-HZ) or Drum Dial measurements. Thanks

2:27 is so beautiful. It just mellows out. I feel like I'm out of space some where. Sounds amazing.
This was such a crazy beat and he killed it! I especially love the DnB style in the beginning
2:27-3:34 is my favorite part...All the chopping and stuff is great, but letting the track breathe at that certain point...is priceless...

This guy doesnt run outta ideas..Favorite drummer right now
this is FREAKING BEASTLY. it couldn't played and synced more perfectly.
best implementation of gospel chops I've ever heard ... those were the most intense and innovative sounding grooves
Simple CAD mics for the rack toms, shure for the floor and bass drum. SM58 for snare, and PG81 condensers.
Nick- I really like your style- great tech and control!! Thanks for posting these vids, man. Truly inspirational! God bless!
one of Nick's best video's ever to me.
