lmao he looked so retarded, but it was pretty fast. didn't really like it overall =/

Skipped to the last minute and a half after thirty seconds of **** that I could do better than, ended watching even more **** I could do better than.

Almost the entire thing was just flurries of double bass. Yawn.

MrRubix · 08-21-2008, 07:34 PM

Dude, Mike Mangini is a world recorder holder with a variety of technical and speed masteries. This drum solo is fantastic.

**Netjet!** · 08-21-2008, 07:40 PM

technical and speed maybe, but it just doesn't SOUND good. it needs a good beat etc.

Are you ****ing kidding? Did you notice the one handed roll fills he does? This guy has incredible independance of his limbs. And if he plays for Steve Vai, he's definitely a good musician, no questions asked.

It's a solo ffs. He can do whatever he damn well pleases.

MrRubix · 08-21-2008, 08:07 PM

I don't think people are quite understanding what they're seeing here lol.

**basicdrummerman** · 08-21-2008, 08:11 PM

holy damn he has fast hands, very technical but all together kinda boring, but very impressive none the less.

No, they're not, because they don't have any experience playing the drums.

The stuff he is doing is so technical and difficult, its just mindblowing. It is so hard for me just to do 180BPM+ double bass, and he was doing ****ing bass rolls.

And oh my god buzz rolls with one hand.

This is most definitely one of the best drum solos I've ever seen, GREAT find Rubix.

lmfao excuse this i was listening on trashy earbuds that muddled almost everything together

This guy is insanely fast. I'm surprised I haven't heard of him before now.

NeONKIDPrincess · 08-22-2008, 03:41 PM

Awhh. I was hoping for some Steve Vai. (N)
But yes, I formed an opinion, I admit I know nothing at all about drumming but is fxcking boring.
(:

**Redorigami** · 08-22-2008, 04:03 PM

Wow.
That whole thing was really ****ing amazing.
To have that kind of speed single handed WITH EITHER HAND.
Wow.

**devonin** · 08-22-2008, 04:32 PM

Nice technique, where's the musicianship?

Great thing to like, add on to a DVD for a concert show, but not really good for actually playing at a live show people paid for.

**Beethovens mask** · 08-22-2008, 04:36 PM

I don't understand if people actually enjoy this musically, but I do have to say he is skilled.

ShAiOnEi · 08-22-2008, 04:37 PM

He has some good fills going on here. Look up kai hahto or jade simonneto for more amazing drumming.

EDIT:This guy unnatural at executing polyrythms wow.

**-paexaea-** · 08-22-2008, 05:19 PM

Man, Flo Mournier is far more impressive than this guy.

Also, Buddy Rich shadows over them all. bye

spinal_compression · 08-22-2008, 05:29 PM

The whole notion of how relxaed he is is quite impressive.

I can listen to drum beats all day long.

I think Rubix only found this because of that other thread where he was proving something about humanly possible jacks.

ITT it's the same how guitarists can show off a new solo in between songs a drummer can do the same.

P.S. Vai kicks ass, which means anyone that plays with him kicks ass.

MrRubix · 08-22-2008, 05:34 PM

Actually I've always been a fan of Mangini -- I was just reminded of him during that thread and went to bring him up.

That piece isn't the best "musically," but that really isn't the point -- I linked it primarily because of the technical skills he shows. Personally I think it sounds fine.

**igotrhythm** · 08-22-2008, 05:38 PM

Agreed with Spinal. First related video is Mike pulling off 1203 drumbeats in 60 seconds, which is the same vid Rubix linked to when proving some random ODI guy was using double setup.

I guess it's only impressive if you actually know how to play drums and can appreciate that kind of technical ability. :/
