  • I proudly endorse Tama Drums, Meinl Cymbals, Remo Drumheads, Vic Firth Drumsticks, Gator Cases, 1964 In-Ears, & 2Box Electronics. Please note that this video was recorded quite awhile ago. As of July 2014, I am now playing and endorsing Tama drums.
    I made this video (along with an interview) for Remo Drumheads. To watch that video interview please see the link below. I am simply posting the 'play-through' portion of that video on my own RUclips channel so my usual subscriber base will get a chance to view it. This song is called 'The Eidolon Reality' from the latest record Autotheism.

    And for you drum nerds out there - if you hadn't already noticed I'm not using my usual Pearl Masters Premium kit. In this video I'm using one of the new Session Studio Classics (Piano Black finish). Sizes are as followed -
    10x7
    12x8
    14x14
    16x14
    20x16
    Reference Brass Snare 14x6.5
    This kit is now my 'gigging' set but I wanted to record with it once before leaving it in LA for The Faceless. The Sessions are great drums, both live and in the studio.
    We'll be going back out in September with Between the Buried and Me, The Contortionist, & The Safety Fire. Should be a fun time! I hope to see some of you out there.
    Thanks for watching!

    "Almost definitely".... Sorry friend, but you're pretty off here. The only thing triggered in this video is the kick drum, and the trigger is mixed substantially lower than the natural kick mic. So even that is almost very natural.
    Triggering everything whack.

  • @Mp5Drummer
    @Mp5Drummer 10 лет назад +70

    0:51 is just the most ridiculous display of technique, a right-handed one-footed blast with the left foot, hitting accents with the right hand and opening the hats with the right foot to match. Those kind of dynamics are hard enough with your dominant limbs, FFS Alex

    • @ralpholivervinas9491
      @ralpholivervinas9491 10 лет назад +1

      Yeah. That was sick. You got it right. I tried that 0:51 in a very and slowest motion I could but I found it very hard to do. It was like playing with an endless twist..

  • @sinborn41214
    @sinborn41214 11 лет назад +1

    I think his approach has much to do with endurance for blasting. By having it ambidextrously, he can switch up and spread out the load, so to speak. I also really like how it spreads the sound from the left to right in the mix.

  • @mrdee734
    @mrdee734 10 лет назад +2

    I've seen the both versions: Lyle's and his. I love both. Lyle has some custom parts, seems, since the videos I've seen were before they released the album. Lovely song.

    • @strappinggermanlad
      @strappinggermanlad 5 лет назад +1

      Mike Post just checked it out after reading your comment... I think it actually looks more badass at 25 fps, but at 50 it’s less intimidating for me as a fellow drummer... his movement actually looks human then haha :D

  • @hailtothe148

    @TehJaytius 11 лет назад

    Not quite: there are lots of different blast beat variations. The traditional blast is a single stroke roll with the hands and your bass drum plays at the same time as whatever cymbal you're hitting. Playing the kick, snare and cymbal in unison is a hammer blast.
