Dear people, just in case you want to know; the sound source of this video is from the Empath album, no secrets. Lot’s of my drum parts on the Empath album was recorded in my studio though, as shown in this video, same drums and cymbals, same mics, "Sprite" too, while some other parts were recorded in Monnow Valley Studio in Wales. SOME of the sounds in this video were added from this video recording though that is NOT on the album. And, it is not me singing on this video (the audio I mean) that would be fake news, it is Devin ;)
What/when was the first time you realised you had gained true independence with/over your limbs, in terms of rudimentary abilities? I mean if there was one exercise which paved the way for "discovering" your motor autonomy, for want of a better word, what was it? (Edit) from is to 'it' .
Dear Morgan.....don't worry....it's just PERFECT !!! Hahahaha yyyyyyyeeaahhhh !!! Musicality, groove, harmony.... many many emotions...it's just music and ....this music was so cccoooooooolllllll !!! A little french fan....
Man... Authentic recording or not... This is a pure show-man-ship of musicallity which is beyond comprehendable. The dynamics, the areticulation, the choice of drums. The service of music. This is out of this earth. Thank you Morgan.
This song is an absolute phenomenal piece of music. Incredibly melodic. For 6.37 minutes I felt wrapped in pure harmony...and it is getting better with each listen.
Empath to me is like an album zappa would have written had he ever listened to Strapping Young Lad and Death. And it is the Coolest F’ing thing ever. Thank you Morgan and everyone else who made this beautiful music a reality.
It's been so much fun watching all three drummers videos and all your different styles come together for a single project. I get the feeling that your parts would be the most difficult to replicate for their "off-the-cuff" nature!
Devin and Morgan... 2 genius and genuine musicians. Loved it. I knew that empath would be a great album when I discover that Morgan is playing on it. This is just Amazing. I consider Morgan one of the "best" modern drummers in the world and he is a strong influence for me as a musician and drummer. Thanks Morgan!
This is a beautiful song, and your playing compliments it perfectly. There are so many little subtleties I never noticed until I watched this. Very tastefully done, good sir.
Obeskrivligt bra! Älskar när man tas med på en musikalisk färd och bara glömmer bort allt annat. Man sätts i trans. Morgan, Devin, Thordendal, IA Eklundh. Det är bara ni och ett fåtal musiker till som tar mig dit. Äkta grejer! Tack!
I've been amazed by your playing and music since I saw your video with fredrik many years ago \m/ and "Guardian Witch" still makes me smile hehe, love you Morgan! cheers :) :) :)
Hiya Morgan ! ... This is probably the video I shared the most this years ! ...and tonight again ! lol Great great work, cheers from Tilburg-Portugal ! ;)
I liked that silly part where you obviously were not playing from the recording which made me laugh so hard and then you got back into playing stuff in the song. Nice job dude.
@@GoatMee It's not so much the audio quality, more like I see the hi-hat being fully open and yet I hear a closed hi-hat being played. Small differences like that.
Out of all the songs I um... *cough* I actually like all the dumming equality so... Man Idk why he got different drummers, maybe because they had different kits which he wanted, but I really like how that album is basically a shoutout to different good drummers.
Can anyone tell me what mics are on the toms? I dont think Ive ever seen them. They almost look like triggers but they cant be since they arent on the drum head itself

Thanks for taking the time to clarify Morgan. You're a beautiful soul. Much love! Cheers.
I've never seen such unique drumming.
this is fantastic. you inspire. and Devin too, sure... haha

I'm a life long Devin Townsend fan and this is a beautiful song. This is the most wonderful way to see/hear it!! Morgan you're a genius.
This song is an absolute phenomenal piece of music. Incredibly melodic. For 6.37 minutes I felt wrapped in pure harmony...and it is getting better with each listen.
This is my favourite on the album- the kind of song you can listen to 100 times and appreciate something new each time

That groove.... I mean, just, woooow... So imminently pulsating and driving yet so beyond the groove. It's killing me... True craftsmanship here!
Wow, Morgan, just discovered you and love what you do.

Morgan, I am in awe about how unbelievably connected you are with the drums. Delicate sounding, rhythmically advanced and melodic as h#ll
Devin is such a great composer. I love this fucking song. Phenomenal drumming.
Love it. Why am I not surprised by the Magma poster.
Absolutely made my day.
Underbart varje dag! Tack 👍😘🇸🇪
Two of my most admirable musical geniuses together! Who would of thought of combining! Thanks for the upload Mr. Agren! Truly a pleasure to hear!
Favorite song from Empath. Super ethereal and magical sounding. Reminds me of 70s prog a lot in terms of songwriting for sure.
This is sick (in the most positive sense), and it seems so effortless. A pleasure to watch
This is a beautiful song, and your playing compliments it perfectly. There are so many little subtleties I never noticed until I watched this. Very tastefully done, good sir.
Unmistakeable use of meter! This takes the cake after seeing Samus' and Anup's awesome playthroughs. Thank you.
Morgan!!! This is SO GOOD
Still loving it!👍😘🇸🇪
My God Devin really has the Best musicians for this Album also the amazing Mike Keneally
Yes - this is truly first level musicianship.
Its musicians like this that make me and others feel like family. Thanks Morgan, ill see you in deva realms and we will jam soon
Helt galet bra!! Sjukt inspirerande att höra dig spela.
Thank you for contributing to this music! This is such a beautiful song.
Just completely blown away!!!
One of my favorite song from Empath ! Love that subtle drumming :)
That ending is just so trippy. Love the album, thanks!
love your work - your drumming - your attitude!!
Love it! Thanks 👍😘🇸🇪
Devin's godly music and the presence of Magma (that poster though) in the same video = love!
Love the Magma logo and music of course, Devin, zappa, etc ...
Love your work. Love your cymbals!!! 😀
This moved me. Thank you
Fuck this is so satisfying to watch. This is my 2nd favorite track on the album. Such a solid track with phenomenal drums.

Amazing man! Wished i've of learnt to read drum music!
I didn't know you even had a channel Morgan. Thank you for all your amazing work!

Love the Magma poster in the background!
OOH HOO HOO what a tidy way for the song to chill down
Mesmorizing - beautiful ! Thank you !!
Hiya Morgan ! ... This is probably the video I shared the most this years ! ...and tonight again ! lol
Great great work, cheers from Tilburg-Portugal ! ;)
There's a lot going on. Love the song

Style is so beautifully 70s prog, like Collins/Bruford era.
Absolutely fantastic and funny too! My body is covered in goosebumps!
the ending part is just out of this world
Amazing!
One of a kind. So special!!
Beautiful.
You are force of nature loved all the collaboration on Trum SuperFusion at its best been lifting your chops for years Thanx 🛒
That Magma poster!
THIS IS SO UNEXPECTED AND WELCOMED, THANK YOU
Such a georgous track
Awesome!
Magical
Love you, Morgan!!!! All the way from Nashville
The face at 3:30!! I love it! Great job Morgan
I liked that silly part where you obviously were not playing from the recording which made me laugh so hard and then you got back into playing stuff in the song. Nice job dude.
Glorious
If you see lots of views from Ireland it's because we love you. (Mostly it's just me.) :D I love this. You're amazing.
Love you Morgan
You did beautiful dirty things to that hi hat. Cant wait ti hear you on Fredriks new Special Defects project
Would have liked the sound from the video instead of just the studio recording.
Yeah. It's great to see Morgan having fun, but I want to hear it too!
This is the sound from the video, you can tell by the overhead mics, they're mixed a little bit louder than normal.
@@python395 I really don't think it is, I'm not gonna say I'm 100% sure, but my brain is telling I'm not hearing what I'm seeing.
@@patrikkarlsson9463 I agree, sound is not from the video, there's no raw quality to it, my bet would be on the studio recording.
@@GoatMee It's not so much the audio quality, more like I see the hi-hat being fully open and yet I hear a closed hi-hat being played. Small differences like that.
Morgan Ågren, The Natural.
With a bit-a psychedelic, ominous, extraterrestrial whispering and clinking at the end.
I want to have a drum cave like yours
do it
Nice! Love it!!!
Tack!!👍😘🇸🇪
What are those things under your crashes? Are those holding your cymbals? Never seen those before...
the end makes me dizzy, so good
I know it really old now, but could you post a play through of Path of Humbleness? The drums in that song have always blown me away.
Morgan Ågren = Intense
Grace !
Love it
That 9/8 groove is amazing. If that's what it is.
Jeeze... Not often music with this exhuberant vibe doesn't come off ass shallow and trite.
As.
That groove!
Looking forward for the new new Magma album, I bet spending time with god himself(Vander) is life changing.
That last pattern is good
You really did enjoy this didn't you? ;-)
I want to like this, but you can't really hear the percussion here.
Must be a bitch to dust this room... :D
I love Devin and everyone working with him.
And everyone loving them.
You and Danny 🙏
Out of all the songs I um... *cough* I actually like all the dumming equality so... Man Idk why he got different drummers, maybe because they had different kits which he wanted, but I really like how that album is basically a shoutout to different good drummers.
WHAT are those weird looking tom mics?? LOVE what you do BTW.
Ray Ortiz Erhlund EHR-E
What kínd of asmr is this 🥁🍻
whats with the weird cymbal stands and are they mics for the toms, they look like lights?
come on Morgan don't lie, you wrote the main groove for the song right? It's so heavy and Zappa-esque.
What are these things at the top of your cymbal stands below the cymbals??
It's a shockmount so no enery from the cymbal is transferred to the ground
Respect for the MAGMA poster!!
What's with those cymbal mounts?
Hey, Morgan! Amazing parts and feel to the song!)))
A gear question: that CRS system really does make a difference?
tomas haake has been there. i have seen him on another video. it was funny.
Radagast is that u?
3:55 Haha, Morgan😄
Can anyone tell me what mics are on the toms? I dont think Ive ever seen them. They almost look like triggers but they cant be since they arent on the drum head itself
eduardobadra the tom mics are Ehrlund ehr e 👋
@@MorganÅgren-Drums-Music Ahhhh I see. Thanks for clearing that up man. Awesome job on Empath!
Rough video ...but has a nice coffee in the end,...indeed....
What meter is this in PLEASE someone
