Excellent solo, full of technical bravery and wise use of electronics. Very musical! Compliments from Croatia!

[@RobindeValkNL]

My god, those big brushes give a deep and warm sound. I think I'm gonna get myself a pair of those.

[@jwj63645]

This is amazing!

[@CharlieEngen]

yeah normally thats the way anyone would do it, but when it came to doing this solo on the fly, i didn't want to blow the transition with something dumb that didnt fit the solo, therefore making me have to restart, and this was a time limit of all time limits, so I had to decide on something.but i hear you.these solos were done spur of the moment, so i was focused on just doing some cool things.thanks for watching. stay tuned for the new ones, they will be the best of the best for drum solos.

[@RECORDINGFIBER1]

ive listened to this 1000000000 times and it sounds better every time. great job. AMAZING

[@CharlieEngen]

@charliebaileydrummer Haha, thanks man it means alot, can't wait for you to see some of my new stuff I will be putting up, stay tuned for it.

[@drummerjonny2008]

[@sasquatchpatch]

[@JorryGT]

[@dtomv34]

very smooth and awesome style. i like it.

[@sticknotfire]

I got myself a pair and they are beast!!!

[@idrumfofun1100]

This is so... perfect.

[@Tyramica]

I love the toms. They have a great full sound. I agree with the snare sounding off/weird.

[@CharlieEngen]

yeah i like his style.

[@IfSiLenTiDie]

this drum solo is really nice, keep it up

[@AntonioDavidPickett]

Very cool, souunds great! I love the kick.

[@CharlieEngen]

@AntonioDavidPickett Yeah for the most part, toms and overheads for sure. I believe the kick here was a D112 up close and a shure 52 far. On the snare was a sm57.

[@CharlieEngen]

Yeah man they rock, their sound is one of a kind. My dog wrecked mine I need new ones.

[@STIXAHOY]

Very very musical. Great use of Toms and very melodic. Not just a whole bunch of licks. I can hear a song in the background...........

[@Continuum1]

dude very beast very awesome solo

[@roccovaselino]

Excellent sounding tubs, nice funk feel, good tempo, relaxed, tasty chops, loose and open. Very nice effort amidst some really lousy RUclips drum solos! I'll subscribe. (I only have one posted so far, an impromptu two minutes from an old retired pro.)

[@mylious83]

[@jackcarter1382]

Woah! This is awesome! I subscribed to your Channel thinking that it was New when you mentioned it on Instagram. Keep it up!

[@et720]

nice dude

[@APMHIYT]

this sounds rlly similar to how i play... its almost the same compared to how i play in my dreams..

[@CharlieEngen]

Haha. Thanks bro, means alot.

[@CharlieEngen]

@salemesserschmitt
Thanks man.

[@CharlieEngen]

me either.

[@LooopQ]

1:07 that bass boom was fucking baaaad ass

[@CharlieEngen]

No I don't. It is a DW kit, with mainly Sabian cymbals. Here I had Evans EC2 clear heads on top, and Clear Remo Ambassador bottoms. Snare sounds goofy because the EC2 made it sound that way, I am not a fan of it and always use a reverse dot coated Remo head.

[@Benjamin__C]

Nice hihat work!

[@phillip_costovski]

Your toms sound amazing through my speakers. Its a shame you didn't carry the intro throughout the whole solo

[@CharlieEngen]

yeah dude i won a pair of them, laughed at them, then fell in love with them. pro-mark broomsticks. 30 bucks.

[@Tyramica]

Your drums sound absolutely amazing. Do you have a website explaining your setup?

[@MikeGiunta]

@Iduckedintoafist im pretty sure they're rods

[@Disrupptive]

nice bass

[@somos999]

ì like it all especially the double bass part, cuz you ddnt overdo it

[@CharlieEngen]

yes, this is me.

[@pbgangsta]

oh my god dude PLEASE tell me how you triggered the drop bass sound. i have a roland drum kit and im trying to use a pad to play a custom drop bass sound that i made. PLEASE message me with all the details ive been looking for so long! thanks!
ps. killer solo dude really diggin the progression and variety

[@justAdit]

waw

[@superjules]

BroomSticks. No joke, I swear by them.

[@sticknotfire]

I knew they were I just found out they're broom brushes or broom sticks or something like that

[@ericmsandoval]

You should check out Zach Hill...or Gabe Serbian

[@AntonioDavidPickett]

Audix??

[@bonzorial10]

XD Bonzo

[@sticknotfire]

what kind of brushes are those at the beginning

[@danivedis]

great solo mate! good job, the only thing I didn't like was the sound of the snare drum...

[@bigups43]

Are you a fan of tim alexander at all?

[@Philtoid]
