FAO: Drummers & Enthusiasts (Youtube heavy)

Recommended Posts

We've had similar threads in the past for bits and pieces but I can't find a nice fit for this in the old ones so I'm going new.

 

One of the songs that keeps popping up on my 5* playlist has a nice little snare drum part in it, was wondering if this is a difficult part to play - sounds like it to me but I don't play the drums. Also keen to hear any similar snare stuff that might appeal so post up please.

 

Static-X - Brainfog (Drummer Nick Oshiro)

(I also like the video and am a fan of the band in general so might be slightly biased)

 

And just a bit of the snare part live:

I found this one that we've all seen before - would I be able to get to this level with no enthusiasm, no practice and without buying any equipment? I just want to be cool basically.

Lots on Youtube but any famous stuff I might have overlooked?

Actually to heck with it, I just want to hear some good drums, double kick stuff, that mental machine gun pounding stuff that I can't think of the name of or more melodic bits, feed me!

 

More songs need to start like this...

Here's Thomas Lang - a friend of mine plays with him (on bass) quite a bit.

 

This one's a bit prog rock, but I guess you can look at his other stuff etc...

I think to answer your earlier question, yep, no equipment, no practice, you should be fine and perhaps rather cool.

 

Perhaps you could video your rehearsal sessions for us, or maybe just pencil a quick sketch or something?

 

I shall try and find something else...:)

I really love the drumming on this song. It's not show-off stuff, just nice and under-stated in keeping with the song. In the recorded version (Fugazi song are forever changing, the records being merely snapshots of the song at that time) there is like a little tiny drum fill that occurs only once in the song. It stands out a mile and gives me goosebumps.

Another bit I like is in the song 'Plug-In Baby' by the otherwise awful Muse. There is a drum bit, again just once, that sounds like a skipped heartbeat. Sound weird but cool.

Big +1 to that.

 

 

Mike Mangini:

 

...and a +1 for Mike Mangini, does he still hold the speed drumming record? (over 1200 snare hits in 1 minute!)

 

I like his drumming in Vai's Firegarden suite...

Which also gives me an excuse to post a vid of For the love of God by Steve Vai, still my favourite piece of music ever. From 4:30 onwards is when I realised I'd never be able to play guitar...

Bobby Jarzombek is pretty good too:

 

 

You're not wrong, I'd never heard of him :thumbs:

Drummer thread and no Neil Peart? Not his finest hour, perhaps, but see 1:10 for cowbell glory.

Peart's good for a human. But Buddy Rich was some other species entirely. Worth watching all the way through if your ears will take it, it takes him a minute or so to get going:
