"This is a social media gig and he's better at it than everybody. The End." I absolutely fkin love that. I can't understand how he can get any hate whatsoever. He's unbelievably talented, works hard and seems like a completely great dude on top of it
When he is absolutely blasting out one of the best fills for a song everyone knows, he's not even looking at his kit. This man is in another dimension where vision doesn't matter anymore, it is just reflex, memory, art, style, groove, and talent.
There are so many things I love about this guy. He is unapologetically himself, great sense of humor, excellent showmanship, his ability to make the most of the sounds of his drums with countless techniques. Nothing wrong with having huge drumkits, but I appreciate how he makes the most out of his small kits. I'm not a drummer, but I studied percussion and played percussion as a secondary instrument for about a year at University, and I appreciate knowledgeable drummers reviewing this guy singling some sections that caught my attention and explaining what he is doing and how it works. Ultimately, his drum covers are there to show the mastery of his skills, to show off a little. If you asked him to cover this without making any changes, that would just not be entertaining to watch. He also mentioned this in a video, he admits to overplaying parts in covers, and he asked his fans to be respectful of the music from his band because and not to expect that type of overplaying in his own band. He understands when to tone it down to let others shine through. Cheers~
So true man. I get so annoyed by people who keep complaining about him "overplaying" and talking about how he should just keep pocket and that's it. Like no shit, he isn't recording for an album. The whole point is to showcase his inhuman ability to play the drums.
I'm sure you've watched a lot of estapario's videos, but you gotta watch his video of him doing DnB style on the kit, double cowbell on a foot pedal.. man it's so good
El Estepario is a great showcase to young musicians of why rudiments and fundamentals are important. He consistently uses the same patterns/fills but employs them in such a musical way.
El Estapario just released a couple songs from his actual band on his channel. You will see he agrees with your dad. Plays his part in the band solidly, with the occasional amazing g short fill. Nothing like his RUclips covers.
In Archspire, Vitrified Entity or First Fragment everybody is doing it all the time and it still sounds amazing. Not always easy to wrap my head around what I am hearing but very cool.
Yeeessssss!!! Your reactions are on par with him. Watching a real pro get the shivers over another pro, and then explaining what's going on is fantastic.
Kind of new here. Love the breakdowns and explanations Tony. Don't change anything. Jorge said in one of his older videos something along the lines of... If people spent as much time practicing as they do hating, it would be a better place. No shit, why can't people just appreciate what he's doing? Or don't but stay quiet about it. Just because you can comment, doesn't mean you should. Thanks again for the time you spend making these videos, we appreciate it.
Man I'm so glad you covered this one. Hated this song when it was out but Estapario made me love it for 1 reason. That sick 1 second fill before the main chorus. Genius.
I see alot of people get annoyed by the pausing. This always puzzles me, i guess some just want to see funny faces. For me, personally, i click on your videos to hear your analyses. I find them educational, insightful, authentic and therefore refreshing. Granted, at best, i am a frustrated beginning level "musician", so take my $.02 for what its worth. None the less, a subscription to your channel is long overdue..sub'd!
Hey man. Just found you thanks to El EStepario; so, first of all his reach/influence carries further than just his channel. The dude is killing it. Anyway, I wanted to say that out of all of the “react” videos I have seen, your vocabulary and analysis reminds me of a few of the DCI/WGI judges. I really appreciate your attention to both big picture and little picture nuances from technique to composition, and not just “yeah bro this dude is fast!” I am hopeful that other players and performers are attentive and picking up on what you are laying down. Appreciate you.
4:46 well put people are crazy for saying stuff like that about his videos. The amount of time he spends on the drums; it's clear he enjoys what he's doing. LET HIM COOK! haha
Well f@%k indeed! That's sure impressive ! Great analysis and take. Also can i recommend you to react to "RAISE A SUILEN - STRAY CERBERUS", could be a good intro to this BanGer group. 😉
All of a sudden, I just.. want to hear a band where EVERYONE plays over the top. Where drumming like this is not only acceptable, it's encouraged. Where the bassist's chops equal in talent and complement the intensity. Where everyone just synergizes and vibes and jams. Where the ultra-shredding, flaming fast guitar isn't the star, but just a piece to a whole. I can't imagine what kind of music could come from that. I feel like the more talented a musician is, the less ego they have, and everyone supports each other, and everyone plays off each other and melds with each other and, in the end, everyone wins. Including the listener.
My fav part of his covers, is when they stare in camera before a badass fill, and their eyes are just saying "Yo, check this shit out, you're gonna love this!" 😂
Bro I hate this song after hearing it so much but I just had so much fun watching this. You literally busted up laughing at the same part I did, and then said “get the fuck outta here” the same time I did. DRT: gracias.
I love the analysis from someone who knows drums.. that being said, i do not know drums. Can someone quickly explain to me why you can't do this in a band or at a gig without getting fired? would it be considered showboating?
Yesterday I went to the Hungarian X Factor and seeing/hearing you now somehow reminded me of one mentor. The biggest difference is that I can imagine a fun conversation with you. :D Edit: And the video was funny.
"If you play like that in a band you'll get fired" Gawd, i'd take all them fired ppl and make the most epic band of all time XD To me, there is no such thing as overplaying... Bring me all that virtuosity, haters are just jealous of the skills...
@DrumRollTonyReacts I did play a few instruments, but never anywhere near that skillfully. However I'm a huge fan of very virtuosic music, such as Dream Theater, to name only my favorite band. Tasty drum fills or guitar solos are a real treat to my ears!
Why do you call it a "toss" when he is technically bouncing the stick off the snare then catching it. Maybe it's a drummer word or something but it doesn't seem to be a "toss".
@@DrumRollTonyReacts I love watching your reactions / reviews. You seem to be a cool dude. I like it when you laugh simply cuz you think something is super cool. Keep up the good work.
I kind of used to be a bit of a hater, but seeing the original songs that he's put out with his band made me realize the chops aren't his entire Identity. With that said, I don't really care about the smoking from an influence perspective -- it's just a bit cringe in an "edgelord" kind of way.
Just curious if the choice to let fly with the language is because of the subject being a guy who likes to drop f bombs and smoke on camera? I mean. I'm into it. Just wondering if that's the reason for being a little looser with this video.
😮 This was fun! What is next?

Combine jealousy with the aversion of other people being different than you and you get those kind of people.
I mean, the tunes he plays along to are his backing track, he's not the backing track. He does absolutely seem like a great dude.
At this point, the only legitimate criticism of him is that he's nowhere near as good as he will be next week.
Good for memes

Thank you for highlighting the loser mentality a lot of hate watchers/commenters have. 🤟🏽
I can't stand those people!
they hate, because they can't do it
I'm sure you've watched a lot of estapario's videos, but you gotta watch his video of him doing DnB style on the kit, double cowbell on a foot pedal.. man it's so good
It’s not a cowbell, it’s a Turbo Crasher. That said, agree it’s very impressive
Every video I am fascinated how relaxed his shoulders and elbows are. So efficient in the arms.
El Estepario is a great showcase to young musicians of why rudiments and fundamentals are important. He consistently uses the same patterns/fills but employs them in such a musical way.
Amen to your thoughts on the haters. So tired of people who can’t do shit criticizing people who can.
“But you can’t do that in a band.” - my 70 year old dad every time I show him any musician on RUclips.

I love how you critique like it’s drum corps or marching band. It just makes me smile.
your content is pure gold

I know lots of people argue that he over plays everything, but that's what he's here for isn't he?
Geeez this guy is a walking drum machine… unbelievable.
Wow, your explanations are amazing ❤❤❤❤!!!!!! Ty for educating us.
That was really good!

I'm a career music educator with a lot of adjudication experience so that makes sense
You break down his videos far better than anyone else. More of him and Charles Berthoud would be amazing
I will not drop it until you've reacted to the best Halo OSTs and articulate with your usual accuracy, why they're so iconic.
Alpha Drummer! I agree and he doesn't apologize for his lifestyle or amazing drumming!
I am SO HAPPY he started his own band finally!
This is my favorite drum cover of his.
Agree, that was a lot of fun!
That is pretty funny and awesome
This is one of his re-do videos of his old pandemic “one a day” videos. First time I saw him play that one fill, I dropped my phone.
Pretty impressive body taps 🙏
Sometimes you can’t help but laugh bro he’s so good it’s absurd😂 3:57 that fill is 🔥🔥🔥
your dugga dahs are as crisp as his drumming
That was great! The Bongo song is my favorite though.
4:46 well put
people are crazy for saying stuff like that about his videos.
The amount of time he spends on the drums; it's clear he enjoys what he's doing.
LET HIM COOK! haha
Holly SHIT!
Ive never seen one person criticize him, ever
I'm not sure what the point in doing so would be. He dominates the social media drummer position. Globally
Pro musicians understand sell the cheese.
i been playing for about 40 years, i can't come close to do what he does.
You’re the best
That fill at 0:55 is so disgusting and tasty, insanely impressive
wow
the people who cant have someone smoking in a you ube video are being honestly ridiculous
Well f@%k indeed! That's sure impressive ! Great analysis and take. Also can i recommend you to react to "RAISE A SUILEN - STRAY CERBERUS", could be a good intro to this BanGer group. 😉

That's call Jazz at its best. 😉
You need to seek out jazz musicians. Everything you described (not the ego part, lmaooo) is there

i want u to do a reactrion of EES cover od Muse´s Knight of Cidonia. His endurance... I loved it.
5:23 like Sokoninaru😂
Nothing from Knower or Louis Cole solo stuff on the channel yet? I think you would enjoy some of their work if you're not already familiar with them.
Good idea
Hi, Tony! Guilty Gear released a new song "Ups and Downs" just so you know~
Bro I hate this song after hearing it so much but I just had so much fun watching this. You literally busted up laughing at the same part I did, and then said “get the fuck outta here” the same time I did. DRT: gracias.
😂😂😂😂😂👌
Idem 🤣
I love the analysis from someone who knows drums.. that being said, i do not know drums. Can someone quickly explain to me why you can't do this in a band or at a gig without getting fired? would it be considered showboating?
Most bands are there to play the song together, instead of showing off the drummer
Bro you should see the ost and the song from Erased anime It will make cry for sure. You need to see .....
Yesterday I went to the Hungarian X Factor and seeing/hearing you now somehow reminded me of one mentor. The biggest difference is that I can imagine a fun conversation with you. :D

very nice reaction.... try to react to his cover to safri duo - played alive...... insane cover.
Dude you never mentioned the stick flips
"If you play like that in a band you'll get fired" Gawd, i'd take all them fired ppl and make the most epic band of all time XD To me, there is no such thing as overplaying... Bring me all that virtuosity, haters are just jealous of the skills...
Lol 😆 there is DEFINITELY overplaying in a massive variety of ensembles. Have you ever been a muso???

Le persone che criticano EES sono ovviamente invidiose.Non mi sembra ci sia altro da aggiungere...
the volume you gotta eqilizr
it is depressing that you miss all the grip changes etc
We talked about it. I don't need to outline it every time it happens. Also, I already outlined it to death in previous videos. Not depressing.
