It’s just too much to see how far you’ve come since starting this channel. Every video impresses us more than the last and it’s like there’s literally nowhere but up from here. Haha. I’m flipping glad you got the call for this record cause Intronaut needed something to top that last album and dude, you did not disappoint.
@@behindthen0thing525 Something like that. "Fire" is apparently one of the newer types of retarded "slang" buzzing on the internet these days. Bleedin' stupid, right?
While Danny’s style of groove made him the perfect fit for this band, I couldn’t imagine anyone else I’d rather see behind the kit for future efforts than yourself.
Shouldn't have hit his ex, and I love Danny's style too sucks he has to be such a pos. Danny was legitimately someone I "looked up" too. Such a bummer.
@@BurnTheNuance That wasn't confirmed to be true, though. I love Alex and Danny rather equally, so I don't care either way, but you shouldn't just impose cancel culture on Danny for that something hasn't been confirmed yet.
It was quite the opposite, he was several times proven innocent as far as I'm concerned. I have the same feelings towards Alex going in the band tho, good for him, and he fits perfectly in there. I do think Danny got an unfair treatment too.
Your ability to play off of the kick drum head when playing this style of music is impressive as hell. I find it so difficult to maintain consistent rebound strokes when doing more fast/complex stuff, I always tend to bury some of them. I am learning that a lot of it has to do with grounding yourself and maintaining your center of gravity via your torso and not becoming wobbly when you use your kick, if that makes sense. So that you are able to "run" on the pedals and maintain rebound strokes while not jeopardizing balance. Something I am continuing to work on. You are inspirational as hell, man. Always have been. Keep up the great work.
Absolutely, something I've always struggled with, definitely lack of core strength and stability for me. Leaning over and digging too much to maintain balance...
@@limp144 Agreed! Ergonomics play such an underrated role in it all. You've gotta position yourself for ease and comfort as well as (like you said) be able to maintain your core and not rely too heavily on gravity and leaning into anything. A daily practice haha. Keep groovin, brother! 🤙🏼🤘🏻
Holy Hell... never listened to Intronaut before, but I think it's time I started! What an interesting and awesome song. The drums on this sound terribly challenging and FUN!
Filling Walker's shoes had to be one of the most challenging thing a drummer can do but you nailed it and added your signature style. Classic Intronaut sound and I am so excited to hear the full thing! Superb job dude!
Super excited to hear that you're playing with Intronaut. I can hardly wait for the album to come out. I think I've listened to this track about 50 times already.
Man...here we go again raising the bar even much more higher( as u usually do!!) and blending your pallette on this incredible,groovy and heavy track to elevate it's depth into the realm of the superb. My metalhead heart is at ease...Thank u again brother!
This is utterly incredible!! I honestly just yelled out loud in my work office to my bands drummer 'DUDE - CLOUDKICKER WITH INTRONAUT AND ALEX - THIS HAS TO HAPPEN!!!"
I've wanted to see this video since hearing the single. Just... How, man? I can't even make sense of half the time signatures here 😂 Hype for the rest of the album dude, it's gonna be fuckin sick 🤘
The composition of that entire song was superlative. I just bought the album but I haven't had a chance to listen to it yet. Alex, that was an amazing set. Kudos.
I was thinking it was boring compared to most of your videos. You hit the Tom part at the end and blast out after and made it epic! Cheers from Ann Arbor Michigan
Dude I’ve been watching your stuff for a long time and it never gets old. Literally every time I watch one of your videos I want to go and practice and better myself. Your videos really friggin motivate me you’re #sic #dude
Psilocybe Cubensis? Must be cause this song has me tripping out. So good. Wait...intro--naut...I just realized how psychadelic this band is. There are mushrooms on the single artwork. Now I love em even more.
As always........ Amazingly fantastic job. Hope that this album is beyond what i hope its going to be.. Thank you for being an inspiration to all the musicians that follow you. You definitely are a great dummer my friend!!!!
Dude!...fukin phenomenal... Your playing, technique!, Energy, timing! So precise and clean!..and the sound....man i love how you mix your drums! Fukin phenomenal...You deserve so much more cred man...keep em comin
I love this so much, Rudi you’re a monster as always! Can’t wait for the full release, getting close now! Anyone else catch that waterfall mouth at 0:36 ? Epic play through as always! Looking forward to the rest :)
Just have to say that you can tell when Nollie tracks your vid's man, they sound incredible! This was amazing and congrats on some well deserved credit for your talent... Can't wait to here the album.
Your drums ALWAYS sound so GOOD!. I can’t wait to get my new kit. Saturn v MH, DW black metal snare, meinl cymbals, axis long boards and a 2 box. Just another month and It’s mine!!
Unfuckingbelievable Alex. I thought your drumming was sick on the single release, but seeing you play it combined with this drum-centric mix is just unreal.
Bro I can't wait for this new album. I doubt you'll upload the other play-throughs until the album releases but if you do that'd be rad and also sick and very cool
My Mushrooms just told me the story about the first time they tripped taking Alex Rudinger. Said it changed them forever.
Lol....
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Long time Intronaut fan. Can’t be happier. This is fantastic.
That tribal beat consistency with ghost notes.. flawless man. Outstanding timing
I don't know if I've ever seen a better metal drummer in my entire life. Damn.
Hearing Cubensis while Tasting Cubensis is killer the colors coming outta the drums are amazing . tracers whoa
You know it's a Rudi video when you go to click like and realize you've already liked it 💛
This album has an absolutely perfect mix. Especially the drums. Really satisfies my ears so much.
Man, totally agree. FEI should be the standard for all rock mixes. All punch and no mud!
It’s crazy being both a fan of Intronaut and you and now you’re both working together.
I felt the same way with him working with Jeff Loomis

1: Intronaut is amazing!
2: You playing with Intronaut is even better!
3: your drums sound great!
4: that song is FIRE!
It's on fire?
@@behindthen0thing525 Something like that. "Fire" is apparently one of the newer types of retarded "slang" buzzing on the internet these days. Bleedin' stupid, right?
@@Khazandar I think it's dumb as fuck along with saying something is LIT

You'll find if you raise your throne higher it will be easier to keep your balance. It is very uncomfortable at first but you'll get used to it.
6:10 TFW you finally nail the cue you've been missing on every other take.
Holy Hell... never listened to Intronaut before, but I think it's time I started! What an interesting and awesome song. The drums on this sound terribly challenging and FUN!
Check our their last album the direction of last things. It’s everything they do well summed up in one album
Love the technical Aspects Played On Every Song....Alex Rudinger You Have A Gift Of The Sickness On The Drums..! Just WOW Dude..!!
3:38 groove gives me the chills! this is awesome
Filling Walker's shoes had to be one of the most challenging thing a drummer can do but you nailed it and added your signature style. Classic Intronaut sound and I am so excited to hear the full thing! Superb job dude!
Master.
a tip: watch movies on kaldroStream. I've been using it for watching all kinds of movies these days.
@Karsyn Yusuf yup, I have been using KaldroStream for months myself :D
Wow! Normally I am not too much into this kind of style, but this is brilliant! The way the drumming fits the music is just perfect!
Masterful technician, complex drumming at it's finest, Alex always raises the bar!
I'm speechless..... your drumming is truly unbelievable, you and matt garstka are my biggest metal drumming inspiration forever, thank you so much!!!!
Super excited to hear that you're playing with Intronaut. I can hardly wait for the album to come out. I think I've listened to this track about 50 times already.
however you find your inspiration.. you amaze us all, keep going!
I really can't wrap my brain around the articulation and precision in your playing.
those guys better keep you as the full time drummer, this is awesome
I see alex, i click.
We're simple people like that.
Please post more Intronaut playthroughs, it's a brilliant album
So good, cant wait to hear the album!
Man...here we go again raising the bar even much more higher( as u usually do!!) and blending your pallette on this incredible,groovy and heavy track to elevate it's depth into the realm of the superb. My metalhead heart is at ease...Thank u again brother!
This is absolutely amazing...
This is utterly incredible!! I honestly just yelled out loud in my work office to my bands drummer 'DUDE - CLOUDKICKER WITH INTRONAUT AND ALEX - THIS HAS TO HAPPEN!!!"
I would love the audio to this video. I'd have it on repeat!
My god, the groove on this track is absolutely insane! You fit Intronaut’s style so damn well.
4.36 Best part
Intronaut creates some great rhythm sections rather than just having a solo
Rudinger in Intronauts is a dream I didn't know I wished. Music is alive!
Solid playing, great song!
Damn that's good.
Cubensis: "A Lesson in Stamina" haha
Excellent work as always! Love the variations of parts in this song.
Incredible technique and imagionation! I love Intronaut! Your creativity is beyond perfection!!! 👌 Big love and support to you all!
Well THAT was fuckin' cool, and that kit sounds wonderful.
Incredible
This is way too awesome! Love your drumming, sound and video quality! Mad respect for you man
Man this is awesome and certainly all over the place....which makes it even better!!!
I've wanted to see this video since hearing the single. Just... How, man? I can't even make sense of half the time signatures here 😂
Hype for the rest of the album dude, it's gonna be fuckin sick 🤘
Jon Appul the halftime 9/8 towards the end is my favorite part. This is the first I’ve heard this band. Pretty damn cool.
Damn man! You are so talented. Loved this tune.
So sick Rudy!!!!! Just elevated one of my favorite bands! 🍄
You're just phenomenal!!!
The composition of that entire song was superlative. I just bought the album but I haven't had a chance to listen to it yet. Alex, that was an amazing set. Kudos.
Reminds me of Levin Minneman Rudess. Such a great balance of other-worldly rhythms and melodies
What a masterpiece, by both you and Intronaut. And that pure alloy China is another one!
Great drumming!...Great sounding drums and cymbals!...Great music! ❤
Jesus christ dude, fuggin SICK as usual. And that mix is spot-on...as usual. Those drums sound amazing. Always an inspiration, my man.
I was thinking it was boring compared to most of your videos. You hit the Tom part at the end and blast out after and made it epic! Cheers from Ann Arbor Michigan
Love it. Anyone else hear Bobby Jarzombek kind of vibe in this?
Alex's hand and foot movements have now been officially clocked at the speed of light
Section at 4:43 is simply spectacular! Omg, I'm so stoked about this album!!!
I've never been more entertained for 7 minutes, in my entire life... Yes. Whatever you're thinking, the answer is yes, even during those times.
Dude I’ve been watching your stuff for a long time and it never gets old. Literally every time I watch one of your videos I want to go and practice and better myself. Your videos really friggin motivate me you’re #sic #dude
5:04 through 6:08 is just magical
Danny will be missed, but you’re beyond amazing! super pumped for the new album :)
Holy damn! I knew the minute this song came out that those drums sounded familiar. Outstanding work, Alex!
I loved your performance on the Intronaut new album. It's killer! I hope you will play on the next record too!
Perfection!
Excellent performance as usual. Great mix too.
Hugeness! Alex is an amazing and so talented beast.
Psilocybe Cubensis? Must be cause this song has me tripping out. So good.
Wait...intro--naut...I just realized how psychadelic this band is. There are mushrooms on the single artwork. Now I love em even more.
Psilocybe* cubensis
@@SemberUno You right. Correction made. Thanks.
The return of the king.
I'm simply amazed!
100% A+ tom work. So fun to watch!
Such a nice resonance comes out of his drums. This dude is the fucking man!
As always........ Amazingly fantastic job. Hope that this album is beyond what i hope its going to be..
Thank you for being an inspiration to all the musicians that follow you. You definitely are a great dummer my friend!!!!
That Tom tuning is soooo good!
I watch a lot of Alex's videos. This is definitely different and threw me for a loop.
Holly shit! Alex is my daily motivation to remember why I felt in love with drums.
This absolutely unbelievable
Wow, that's really insane!!! Great ghost notes and beats!
Amazing performance and outstanding sound!
Jesus Christ you are a machine dude. LIVIN IN THE POCKET
Dude!...fukin phenomenal...
Your playing, technique!, Energy, timing! So precise and clean!..and the sound....man i love how you mix your drums!
Fukin phenomenal...You deserve so much more cred man...keep em comin
Wow 1 minute in and I would be extremely proud of this as well Alex! Been watching since the long hair! The progression is outstanding!
The look on your face at 6.10 after you finish that massive fill section, is priceless! haha. Amazing work, brother!!
Maryland is on the leg, It took a minute but figured it out. Well Done Rudy.
So fucking good!
very impressive - pure art!
Love the fill from 0:07 - 3:19 and the other one from 3:36 - 6:58
how is it possible to be so good !
That snare sounds amazing.
Amaizing🔥🔥🔥
Amazing every time Alex, you effing kill it!
I love this so much, Rudi you’re a monster as always! Can’t wait for the full release, getting close now!
Anyone else catch that waterfall mouth at 0:36 ?
Epic play through as always! Looking forward to the rest :)
That is amazingly brilliant. As a drummer I could never right something this complicated
Just have to say that you can tell when Nollie tracks your vid's man, they sound incredible! This was amazing and congrats on some well deserved credit for your talent... Can't wait to here the album.
Your drums ALWAYS sound so GOOD!. I can’t wait to get my new kit. Saturn v MH, DW black metal snare, meinl cymbals, axis long boards and a 2 box. Just another month and It’s mine!!
Dude I love your drum playthroughs. Started with the old faceless ones and binge watched the rest haha
Unfuckingbelievable Alex. I thought your drumming was sick on the single release, but seeing you play it combined with this drum-centric mix is just unreal.
Enormous ! love it !
Bro I can't wait for this new album. I doubt you'll upload the other play-throughs until the album releases but if you do that'd be rad and also sick and very cool
