- Oh man, this was fun and much more challenging than I imagined. It's only once you jump in and start recording that you realize how hard this song can be to play. It's a challenge to get the feel right on this track and always a struggle to lay back and not rush it... easier said than done! Anyways, it's an honor to be able to play on this track from one of the drumming greats and I learned a lot about Harvey's style from studying his performance so this was a great learning opportunity for me. Thanks to Vic Firth for putting this contest together and best of luck to everyone who enters!

My entry video for the Vic Firth Playalong Contest of the song "Chameleon"
awesome stuff, my favourite cover on youtube by far!
3:40 you look like "Nailed this one, now and I can breathe !" Super nice job, you're caressing those drums, beautiful !
+Thomas haha thanks man, I was rushing through a lot of the stuff b/c I was anxious and trying to not mess up but oh well... we all know how that goes!
Awesome Austin, so proud of you!
Amazing performance man! Congratulations! Man, those double strokes are clean as they can be! Would you mind doing a tutorial on double strokes? That'd be amazing!
very very good!!!
All your videos are very interesting, I subscribed to your channel.
Thanks Austin!!!
Great Video and i Love The Pocket and this Track. Could you possibly Tell me what you Tune your Drums to? I use tune bot and i like The Toms and that Snare Sound. It would Really help me out. Thanks 🙃
Bad ass mate. That was awesome!

Solid job man!
Amazing cover!!! Is there any chance you’ll be uploading a transcript?
harvey mason would b proud! great job!
Great sound
Sad i can't find the backing track anymore. Anyone still got the drumless track?
Wow, fantastic. Such talent
Thanks!
Very nice playing.
That snare sounds amazing, is it muted? has like a dry plop sound. Awesome by the way ;)
whats the thought behind holding your left stick backwards? is it just for the sidestick work later in the song?
That's a good question. For the hi-hat part in the beginning, it gives a much stronger "chick" sound on the hat to accent that backbeat. It also produces a much stronger rimshot sound for the backbeat in the sax solo section which I liked. For the ghost notes, it gives the stick a front weighted feel which can help your tactile feedback of feeling the ghost notes because you have to work a little bit harder to make them happen. And, also of course, it helps with not having to flip the stick at the end to get to the crosstick section :) It's not really necessary at all, it's just a very subtle "sound" and "feel" thing that I think works for this song...
***** It's also how Harvey does it :-)
Hey Austin, nice playing !
What is the crash (the one near your hihats) that you're using ? It sound great !

What the crash cymbal on your left side Austin?
Wuhan 16" Medium Thin Crash
Thank you Austin,it sounds great.
I'm sure there's not a "mailing list", but how does one become involved in the drumming community fullstop?
I wouldn't know that NAMM and PASIC even existed if it wasn't for teh ut00bz, let alone competitions etc
Instagram is helpful. follow all the drum pages you can find (there are many!)
Why won't RUclips allow me to watch this?
Hey. I'm new to your channel. Great Work by the way!
Was wondering how to mic a drum set (well) for a friend.
I'm a bass player, and now I've come across your channel I was wondering if you could learn some Marcus Miller songs or whatnot and wanted to do a collab! Just hit me up with a song and I'll see if I can pull it off. If you wanna see some covers, just check out my channel.
Thanks man, keep it up!
