Not only does he have the chops, he has the feel. First audition video for Primus where I felt the drummer had not just the chops but the feels, kinda like the difference in Mike Mangini and Mike Portnoy, both have tech prowess, but you need that feeling too for a band like Primus. Hope Les sees this! Good Luck Felipe!
@@kithkani thanks Dude! Thats kinda my modjo to be balanced in the feeling and give the deserved chops, more than a technical display a more feel musical oriented playing, last part of the song im playing what i came up with, its neither herb or brain parts :)
@@chrisgundersen1117 thanks dude im trying to “Heal the world Make it a better place For you and for me And the entire human race There are people dying If you care enough for the living Make it a better place For you and for me” xD
My boy was waiting for his peanut butter toast with blueberry jam, but sorry kiddo dad’s got a mission to complete (don’t worry guys he got the sandwich) little one likes to rock out while i play ❤
Yeah, man!!! Tight, tight!!! As Tuco Salamanca of Breaking Bad would exclaim, lol! The young lad rocking out in the foreground has surely earned you some brownie points as well, 'cause who doesn't love to see young ones rocking out to classics like this?! Good luck, my dude! Also, a quick note to say that you're the only one I've seen (and I'm making a massive habit of trawling the internet for these videos) who has chosen this track. It's a knuckle-buster, and you nailed it, dude!
Thanks dude, haha loved the BB reference! (best show ever) i've been very influenced by Primus, i discover them with the Videoplasty VHS, so brain has a very special place in my hearth hehe, but this tune was made during Herb era, it was just studio recorded for antipop so its actually best of both worlds, and the little fella its my kiddo im trying to be good pops and share good music with him, so far he is enjoying like crazy :)
Nice job, man. As a drummer and long time Primus fan, this is the first video I felt compelled to comment on. I also dig the kid jamming out! Reminds me of my jam room back in the day. Great playing!
Great performance! Technique, feel and you can see he's enjoying what he's doing. He's having fun. He's focused and going with the flow at the same time. That level of awareness where senses take the lead and the playing is not mind controlled. Great job! I'll give Les and Larry a call 😉
Primus, you have now found him! A dad, a drummer who dedicates an entire room In his house to his art, with expert timing, great groove, in the pocket, and looks fun as hell to play with.
That was outstanding. This guy's got my vote and I'm pretty deep in the rabbit hole here. What chops. And got dang he beat those things like they owed him money.
In this house we praise the one and only sonic, lord of the 7 chaos emeralds and protector of green hill zone, exited by sonic 3 movie must say, what a great time to be alive!
This is easily the best I've seen. What sets you apart is your dynamics. Fantastic chops, flawless pocket playing but it's the dynamics that make you a cut above
Great stuff! My favorite so far! I'm a casual fan of Primus, but all these auditions have me totally invested in the outcome. Can't wait to see how it turns out--good luck Felipe!
I don't know anything about drumming other than it's really hard. So my opinion means nothing but I'll state it anyway. This was absolutely killer. Not sure how it could be beaten.
Awesome! I saw Primus in high school when they opened for Rush on (I think) the Roll the Bones tour. Now with an open audition for drums, I hope they make a documentary about it, like that guy Arnel who sings for Journey now. You have a beautiful drum room! Mine is a messy, cramped little office.
I saw Rush on that tour as well but missed Primus by a day. Instead we got Mr Big on the 2nd half of the tour in peak late 80s/early 90s power ballad form. So disappointing
well done! i've seen too many audition videos where the drummers are coming up with their own parts. you did this tune justice by sticking to the original!
@@steinson63 actually i play the first half sticking to the record, then i went bananas with my chops, but never to “out” of the jurisdiction of the song hehe, thanks for the feedback!
Absolutely loved this, weren't sure what to think to start but you killed it (also love the lego starwars) the fact your kid came in and was a bit like erm, and then starts rocking out to it...brilliant, thumbs up from me and how have you only got 648 subscribers, make it 649.. you killed it dude, I love Primus
…F**kn A dude…Suck on This is what got me hooked - btw the little dude stoked on the grooves should give you some sorta Mario Star - that was spectacular
Your son added such a wonderful touch to this video. While he’s not drumming, his enthusiasm and love for it are truly inspiring. I sincerely hope you secure the position and can work out homeschooling arrangements-your little one is clearly ready to follow in your footsteps someday. Truly impressive work. Wishing you the best of luck! And if Les happens to see this, #yyz.
@@DustinMusic thanks for the feedback Dustin! Yeah my little boy he loves to come to the music cave there he express his self to the music, if i get to have a chance everything can be arranged for sure! ✌🏻
That sounded bad ass. Everyone wants to play jerry was a racecar driver. This was an awesome song to play one of my favorites. I'd like to see u play toys and nature boy and dmv and also Sgt baker
Can you do it in a penguin costume? That was really tight. Hats off. Primus in person is something else and I feel like you could anchor the boys. Best of luck.
Out of all the people I've seen so far, this guy sounds like a primus drummer
Agreed!
No joke dude
Yes sir I want him
He's not just playing the space; he's creating the space.
Yeah, he’s the one so far
Not only does he have the chops, he has the feel. First audition video for Primus where I felt the drummer had not just the chops but the feels, kinda like the difference in Mike Mangini and Mike Portnoy, both have tech prowess, but you need that feeling too for a band like Primus.

Solid!! All good Dad‘s play primus for their kids makes things a better world :-)

For you and for me

True. But, apostrophe makes it possessive, not plural. All good dads get their children a proper education.
Best audition ive watched so far. Extra points for the Polks.
Yes sir! those Polks RTI A7 sounds amazing haha! Thanks bro!
Lil dude came in wanting to know why dad wasn’t gettn his waffles and ended up wth a groove in his jamies
My boy was waiting for his peanut butter toast with blueberry jam, but sorry kiddo dad’s got a mission to complete (don’t worry guys he got the sandwich) little one likes to rock out while i play ❤
@batafuko this was a great song choice and amazing job!! My favorite so far.
Your kiddo is definitely a great hype man! 🤘
@@itlackey1920 thanks dude!
Love how picked the Heckler..
Crackin' song and crackin' drumming.. Nice one. :D
@@weppanx it was a fine selection, only to be appreciated by the most hard core and selected primus audience 🫡 thanks bro!

This is a Primus drummer! Dude is like a mix of Brain and Herb
What gave it away? The flip flops on his feet?
Nice job, man.
As a drummer and long time Primus fan, this is the first video I felt compelled to comment on.
I also dig the kid jamming out! Reminds me of my jam room back in the day.
Great playing!
That was a solid groove you had going bro! Well done, sound, and look the part. Good luck Man. Cheers
Great performance! Technique, feel and you can see he's enjoying what he's doing. He's having fun. He's focused and going with the flow at the same time. That level of awareness where senses take the lead and the playing is not mind controlled. Great job! I'll give Les and Larry a call 😉
You fucking nailed it dude!! I have the pleasure of having played with this guy in the past. I'm proud of you my friend.
@@cristianfuentes517 long live Mortero Chaks!
great performance, and I loved seeing the young one get into it!
Badass! I’m watching all these as they come up in my feed and you definitely have the best feel/pocket I have heard! Love it!
Good luck brotha 😎

@@TheOneYouWarnedMeOf hahaha best comment dude!
Great choice of track, smart to show off dynamics and control in addition to speed and chops
@@benjaminlichtenstein6747 Thanks Dude!
I think we have a winner.
You picked the song with my favourite guitar riff of all time in it!!! (been playing for 25 years:)
Playing sounds great and energy is really tight!
@@Lektuerekurs thanks for the feedback, its a great riff in deed and the solo its so visceral a great track and one of my favs
That was great!. I could tell the little one was anxious for you to get off of his kit! haha!
Bro this kicks ass. So into the groove 🤘🤘🤘
best drum audition video ever!
I'm loving tis, the last few days have been RUclips Gold. Good Luck!
The winner is this guy, no doubt
Hands down the best audition.. tight and fierce. Even little dude was feeling it.
Love how both you and your kid are wearing Sonic shirts!
In this house we praise the one and only sonic, lord of the 7 chaos emeralds and protector of green hill zone, exited by sonic 3 movie must say, what a great time to be alive!

Nice room! Love the Ludwig’s too!!
Loving this one, top of the tree for me so far
new primus drummer right here.... that was at the corner pocket and just in there!
Snare is clearly Primus!!Awesome work!! Good luck dude!!
We already have Brian "Brain" Mancia. Good luck with that
Genial bro!
I've watched a few audition videos.This one by far is the Best!! 🤘🏻🔥
“It’s just a matter of opinion!” Lets go!
Beautiful!
So far I’ve seen 4 really good ones. This very good.
This is by far the best audition I have seen so far. Good stuff!
I don't know anything about drumming other than it's really hard. So my opinion means nothing but I'll state it anyway.
This was absolutely killer. Not sure how it could be beaten.
This dude should play drums for Primus
Nice setup man 🤘
Hell yeah, that's a good dad submitting the one with his kiddo rockin out! 👏
Been watching auditions for about 45 min now and you are in my top 2.
@@sarcasticscapegoat5995 whats keeping me 2 from your from top 1? Im Curious :)
Great job man!
Great snare tone.
@@gregdolecki8530 its a masterworks snare, what can i say its like a lambo 🥁properly tuned ufff sounds so good 12x7

Saw them at Wembley London Uk april 92 opening for Rush..It sucked ! ;)

@@steinson63 actually i play the first half sticking to the record, then i went bananas with my chops, but never to “out” of the jurisdiction of the song hehe, thanks for the feedback!
I almost crashed my car listening to this, bro, that was just so awesome! You really do sound like a natural Primus drummer.👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
That kicked some serious butt! Loved the dancing kiddo, too.🤠
Kit sounds AMAZING. Top 5 best sounding kit from the auditions I've seen. Great playing too, no question.
Super solid!!! Very well done. My favorite audition drummer so far!
Acabo de ver la noticia del batera de Primus y RUclips me ha recomendado este vídeo. ¡Mucha suerte, eres una bestia parda tocando!
@@RobSinner Gracias Rob!
Loved it. Just the right amount of technical and great groove.
The best 🔥🔥🔥
Blessed by la foca! YES! 🔥🔥🔥 regards to Vacosky 🌟
Tight-anic!
Sounds great, dude.
Nailed it!
I love that your kid is so much into you playing and having fun
This was very solid, bonus points for the kid. I give you a solid 9.5/10 !!
@2:14 Sorry son, I'm busing auditioning for Primus. I'll be done in just a sec!
I want this dude to drum for Primus
YES!
I certainly hope so.
Absolutely loved this, weren't sure what to think to start but you killed it (also love the lego starwars) the fact your kid came in and was a bit like erm, and then starts rocking out to it...brilliant, thumbs up from me and how have you only got 648 subscribers, make it 649.. you killed it dude, I love Primus
@@alangrafton923 man i also have the millenium falcom and bd-1! Thanks for the feedback! 🥁🥁🥁
Very nice!
That cross stick cuts through the mix like butter. Nice.
That was quality. Good luck, man!
Sick moves dude, and that kid was hyping you up like crazy
That was pretty sick I must admit
Outstanding cameo by junior. 🤘
…F**kn A dude…Suck on This is what got me hooked - btw the little dude stoked on the grooves should give you some sorta Mario Star - that was spectacular
Approved.
Love the way the little man pops into the video just like he's in the pit at a Primus show. His dad definitely has the chops.
It’s probably not overwhelming at all for Les to have 10,000 audition videos to look at
Kid is ready to find out what they are doing that day and great chops and awesome kid he made the video genuine
fantastic. snare and kick are so tight they sound amazing
The kid jumping around is perfect! gives off the "Mr' Krinkle" vibes
That was great man
Really good.
YES!!!!

I think these auditions are getting me into Prims, never listened to them before
That was killer..!
My favorite part was how you did that in flip-flops 🤘🏽
Heck yeah dude
That sounded bad ass. Everyone wants to play jerry was a racecar driver. This was an awesome song to play one of my favorites. I'd like to see u play toys and nature boy and dmv and also Sgt baker
Killed it! Little dude raging ftw!
Winner
Mad respect from Texas.
Howdy Drum Brother!

Very good!
Love the song choice!
Brah. This is fire! 🔥
Killer groove!
Good work dude!
Nice Genistas in the back. Great drums.
Made in England genistas, sir you know about drums my respects
This the one!
hands down the best primus audition video i've seen so far, good job man!
I can’t get over that room. What a space!! It’s gorgeous. I’m shoved into the corner of a shitehole 😂
Seco Felipe! El peque vacilando se robó tu performance 😊
@@Eclectic hahaha si! Maxito se colo en el video y le dio su toque especial, saludos!
@ toque especial es decir poco. Se robó el show! ;)
Can you do it in a penguin costume?
That was really tight. Hats off. Primus in person is something else and I feel like you could anchor the boys. Best of luck.
@@sgtbaker81 will consider the penguin outfit!
