While I think he is absolutely top notch and i enjoy his content and choices in general, personally I am not a fan of the over present double kick even when I see and appreciate how it fits into his style. For me, he is still wel behind Nate Smith in refinement and complexity, just to mention one. But Nate obviously has quite a few more years of experience.
His drumming is freakin amazing, I wish I could drum 1% as well as he does... but this would be horrible for the actual studio track. The original track is way, way, way better for the song. If this was track was the original it'd be a song about drums instead of deep yearning. But it's fun and he's extremely talented. Maybe I'm just jealous that I can't play like that though.
Glad you put your 2 cents in on his drumming style. People take stuff way too seriously . I regularly see people comment things like "he just ruined the song" and "he only plays fast, not impressed". Are you kidding me he is incredible to watch as a drummer and a showman. The way I describe his channel is its not a music channel, its a drumming channel. Forget the song, and just appreciate the limit pushing drums.
I'll never understand people who think you can overplay a solo drum cover. Its not a whole band cover and its not a live performance, the focus is on the drummer not the song. He could do a drum solo over the whole song and it wouldnt be overplaying because the point of the video is to show off drumming prowess not to play for the music.
Sure he does some stuff that’s over the top but when you look at some of the stuff he’s doing with the Michael Jackson covers, while the drum parts are absolutely insane, they are also insanely musical and completely, and perfectly fit the song. He also had one that was a Latin track and his drum part was a giant ball of fire. Anybody that says this guy just overplays must’ve only popped in here and there when they saw a song title they wanted to see. They are definitely not content followers.
Anyone who thinks it is overplaying should listen in 75% or 50% speed to actually hear what he is playing. It is ridiculous how clean and accurate he is.
I doubt he’s amazing technically. Absolutely incredible but TO ME I think he does overplay most songs. He is bad ass but at times it loses the feel of the song. Although the folks he adds sometimes are really good.
@@Keith_X Overplaying the song to show his skills is the point of his videos. If he played the songs correctly, he wouldn't have more than 3 millions subscribers.
I feel like he pulled way back on the chops and played more sympathetically to the source material than many of the other amazing covers he’s done. This is fantastic.
I remember when I started to play drums. I was 9 years old. I was proud. The teacher showed me the exercise the train. Which we only trained. Every lesson was like this. Then at older age like 16. I joined a band and well, I was still a newbie but learnt more and more about different patterns and styles.. even 5/4 beat.. I thought there was nobody better than me.. we’ll time flies and the. When I got to 18 - 19 I actually exercised drums for over 2 years 8 hours a day. Took me about 1 month to be able to play Bernie shuffle at high bpm. And also nailing both ghost notes and strokes.. BUT I learnt there was a god. Named Dave Weckl.. I saw him live and I thought I died because I couldn’t grip how he played.. and it sounded super awesome!! I thought I would give up drums.. didn’t… but then boys and girls.. there came he… the invisible yet visible. He’s both light and darkness.. fuck I stopped playing drums after seeing El Estepario.. I mean come on.. look at him.. He’s doesn’t struggle even!! Fuck.. I officially give up!! El estepario the scene is yours! Keep doing the great work!! Love it!!
I don't play drums, but I really enjoy your professional analysis and how you leave your ego in check and simply praise another professional drummer. He is absolutely amazing. Thank you.
i love when i'm expecting something from a song and some player is like "lol freestyle" and it blows my mind. Not only to remind me of song construction styles in the 80s but also the way that musical influence has impacted players like Siberiano. Those differences are so great! It's also funny to see how basic a descending fill sounds, but when Siberiano does it I can't help but chuckle because I rarely get such an anchor fill from such a creative player.
I have to say, this is one of my favourite ways to consume El Estepario Siberiano’s content because not only do I get to appreciate the music and drums, but I also get a better understanding of the complexity! Cracking content!
I hate that people are using him as a clickbait.... BUT NOT YOU SIR❤ You get 10/10 because you really react to his videos and you also tell about his Free Drumeo lessons etc. Thank you for that. I will bet that we will have many young amazing drummers in the future because of videos like this👌
At 11:39 was how I used to play it but then I was listening though old tech and didn't have you tube to watch. It was years later I figure out it was a triplet. To this day, I don't know if the drum track was actually played or programmed. Siberiano has the fastest hands that I've ever seen. His motion is effortless. He's just incredible.
Tears for fears are a hugely underrated band - they didn't seem flashy and shredding - but they did music. They were so good they made extremely complex songs to play sound "simple" - the drum solo from "Head over heels" trips so many technical drummers up time and time again.
Excellent as usual. This guy is amazing. I’m not a drummer or even a musician, but I find myself seeking out his videos and reactions to them! 🤟🏻 And, I must say that having the occasional “That’s what she said!” thrown in just makes it for me lol 😂
@Andrew Rooney Drums It is nice to sees that I am not the obly one getting emotional when watching good musicians. And I like that you add a little humour into your produktion aswell. 😊 Greetings from Norway.
This was an awesome watch!..i agree with the people who requested more drum teacher stuff! Really enjoyed your breakdown on paper, But love your video watching analysis too. Its all great stuff. Thanks Andrew!
He does not play just drums. He plays a whole fragging orchestra. He plays the songs in a way the maker of the songs would have played them, had they had his genius and technique. He completes the songs, brings the closer to perfection.
The sheer amount of concentration and ability to control both hands independently, flawlessly, consistently, and a seemingly effortless technique is nothing short of mind boggling 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I’m a guitar & dobro player (40+years now), & he’s so f--ing good that he’ll make the guitarist & singer look bad if their not bringing their A-GAME! AMAZING!
You know you are making some waves when multiple musicians are talking about you. Mass recognition from your peers is nearly reaching the pinnacle of your field.
Glad you are reviewing this Alien Drum Player 😂 , He is a wonder of drumming , tight, right on every beat, amazing player, watching him for many years .
I'm not a drummer but he always says that he has no special talent, he just practice and practice to get to this point like 8 hours everyday. He doesn't believe in inner talent. He doesn't know how to read or write music. He just feels it.
@@miguelfg93 totally!! I also don’t believe in talent. It’s all hard work and commitment. And that’s why I study 2 hours daily at least. But man…he is so damn far ahead I sometimes feel like “not in this lifetime”, you know?
First of all Andrew "LEGENDARY " song, I'm not a drummer but I do recognize great drumming when I hear it I especially like your analysis of this alien drummer it let's me know just how insane his drumming actually is great stuff man.
Andrew: love your videos. Thank you and keep up the great work. This guy is from another planet! I also stumbled across another young and up and coming drummer, Gianluca Pellerito. Guy has an amazing combination groove, nuance, and speed. His Meinl Cymbals - Gianluca Pellerito - Red Eyes Space video is new and nicely showcases his talents, but really any video is great. He’s 22 and has outstanding videos from his teens too. Anyway, highly recommend doing a review if you haven’t yet!
I remember playing that track over and over again when in grade 9. I think I wore out that cd actually. Went through alot of depression, between this track and Queen- Show Must Go On were just a few of my favorites. But I have been into electronic music since gr 7, 1987. I quit raving in 2000 after the scene was destroyed. Enjoy all music with a beat, except Country. Well, Garth Brooks I liked, but that's it! 😂
its just awesome he puts his own stamp on it i was learning thriller and i said il just need make up the fills Jim it just says big fills at the end lol he says just make it fit the music and i think Thats what EL ESTEPARIO SIBERIANO does brilliantly whatever he creates another great video have a great day Mr Rooney
I’ve commented this on another reaction post; I believe it bears repeating; EES has detached himself from the “talent” label emphatically and stresses practice to nearly the point of breathing. In my view however his base identity is often overlooked. His is a incredibly accomplished drummer but he is also an impassioned music lover. I dare say he loves music to the equal of drumming and what he seeks to do is make music with drums, more than just put on a chops exhibition. He can disclaim talent but not his passion. I consider him inspired. And that is contagious. I am grateful for the bewildering joy of seeing/hearing him play. He’s close to establishing his own era. And I think that’s marvelous.
Nice...and no argument about the solo... I'm a "shredder" (new-ish to drumming) and I have no probably admitting that the best guitar solos ALSO groove. Fit the song. Love your reactions and commentary. Stay true my brother.
Imagine not having heard this song ever, and give this drumless track to 100 drummers to record. Then listen to those 100 recordings and tell me this guy is not impressive. Ohh, and another banger Andrew. 🎉
I'm not a drummer, but I know a few.. I'm a bass player (and fellow kiwi). Estepario has done a few videos talking about how his goal is to show what can be done - he has thousands of hours of practicing all sorts of seemingly impossible things and wants to show people how, and inspire them to do stuff. I think he is a pretty good bloke as well as a mind blowing artist.
Some people might say it's overplaying, but groove and feel can make it like that. I feel like a lot of these new metal drummers are technically awesome but sometimes playing as many notes as possible as fast as you can is overplaying. The thing I love about jazz and some progressive and groove is is not always about what is played but what isn't that adds to the feel. This guy is super talented.
Sadly, this video is not his norm. He's normally spewing all over the place, in full "Hey, Internet! Look how freaking fast I am!!!" style. Which gets tiresome after a while. At least for me.
Kudos to user very good analyzation in Temple sitting for us new drummers. Thank you for the first part of the tempo setting. I learned a lot off of that I do not know how to read music but you're making it easy for me. And great up to par innovation and explaining what he's doing I appreciate you. And Bravo's to😊 Mr.El he is by far my favorite drummer in the world right now he's like an AI Akri MPC 2500. Maybe someday I can be good enough as you guys but for now I'm enjoying all these videos so thank you very much!
With my dude it's hardly ever "over playing." This is just El Estepario Siberiano just playing. In every sense of the word. Good analysis. Great execution and exhibition on his part. One
Even with the overplaying can you close your eyes a moment and still sway your head to the beat? That´s the magic, damn!!! Complainers need to overpractice! this guy is something else. Thanks Andrew!! loved your analysis.
I`d be curious to hear your explanation of some of his chops eg at downbeat switch to cut time thing (?) at 3:55 and/or that limp wrist ghost note paradiddle thing at 4:02. I've been drumming for like 25 years off and on and while I'm pretty amateur, I have no clue what the sticking is there (4:02) vs the concept at 3:55 (eg halftime? cut time? Polyrhythm?). I've never seen anything like this guy before... Love your channel sir.
I'm not a drummer, but the breakdown of what's going on is really cool. It's hard for a non-drummer to hear exactly what is going on in the song, without knowing that it's hard to tell if he's good or just overplaying. It's like watching Steve Vai or listening to dubstep, I have just enough time on guitar and in music to know what he's playing, but there are times when it feels like it goes a bit far and although it's all technically correct and beautiful in its own way I can tell that many wouldn't get it.
9:50 To the question, how much power does a drummer have? This is the answer! When he slows the beat down it feels like ALL other instruments slow down along with him! When they don't. This is how much power a drummer have on the whole thing! To me it is mind bending, to some extent. PS: if you like that guitar. you might want to listen to "Un autre monde" from Telephone. The last minute of the song is amazing. I am sure you would enjoy it. ^__-
Watched both your covers after you pointed out you already covered it. Song is more difficult than I thought. I’m not a drummer but I like the simple complexity it seems to have
I've a TFF live performance of the song from the early 1990s in which the drummer is playing all the notes on the hi-hat with both hands, playing the snare with his left. Which in my book gives you license to play the groove however you want. Still really satisfying to do it properly though.
As to your comment on Estepario absolutely right! He should showcase his own character on his channel. Some people are just haters saying negative things about that.
Keith Moon was a drummer who would hardly play the song the same twice. He would always like to throw a new fill into each time it was played. Some like hearing new adds to a song giving it a freshness that can bring back the song to a new feel. Much like musicians that do remakes to a old cover. Sometimes making the song even more popular than the original.
what l value about this guy is that he breaks through the oldschool way - practicing a million hours until you dream about it - in an age in which music is dictated by plugin/ AI/ autotune/ autogrid/autofuckingeverything
For those students interested in understanding the correct terminology of the note values of this pattern - the original Hi Hat part is simply crotchet triplets (1/4 note triplets.) They can start either on the beat, or in this case, off the beat.
Damn right I remember those books & yes, Tears for Fears “Everybody Wants To Rule The World”, is absolutely 1 of the best 80’s Pop ALL-TIME! Yes, I’m a Gen X’er too!
My observation (since everybody else has observed everything else); El Estepario Siberiano never "overplays" the cymbals. They're hit when they need to be hit, left alone otherwise. I like that. Excessive cymbals annoys me, well not the "clock" on the ride cymbal, it can be abused.
9:01 In the middle of a syncopated groove he needs to scratch his nose so just switches to left-handed for a few beats, and if you aren't watching you don't even hear the difference. This might be the smallest thing to focus on, but it's little things like this that you realize how second-nature this is to him.
i'm not a drummer and i've seen in a few videos that swapping hands is normal for drummers but @9:03 (it is repeated a few times) he scratches his nose and while his right hand is busy he picks up that track with his left :x

Yes, but he plays out of time occasionally.
@@Lehmann108 really? timestamp?
That’s the modulations messing with your expectations of the downbeat
@@farleycarl Yup😁 not out of time, purposeful off-time
He’s only a drummer he does not read or use music. He does things no one can watch his about Video if you really want to be impressed.
He's probably the only drummer I have ever seen that is technical like a machine, but still has that groove and soul of a human. Unbelievable work.
Neal pert eat your heart out
he should sell "drummers tears" mugs by now... 😹
Try Alex Rüdinger - absolute weapon.
While I think he is absolutely top notch and i enjoy his content and choices in general, personally I am not a fan of the over present double kick even when I see and appreciate how it fits into his style. For me, he is still wel behind Nate Smith in refinement and complexity, just to mention one. But Nate obviously has quite a few more years of experience.
@@blazemonger1 he's still a young drummer with, iirc, only 8 years of experience. let him mature a bit more... 😏👌
I think that el estebario is the reason that we will have so many amazing drummers in the future.... he's showing people what it can be.....
💯👌
He is showing how fun drums are. And he doesnt sugarcoat it either, he is all about PRACTICE 40 hours per day
@@rykehuss3435if you can play it with two hands, you can play it with one.
His drumming is freakin amazing, I wish I could drum 1% as well as he does... but this would be horrible for the actual studio track. The original track is way, way, way better for the song. If this was track was the original it'd be a song about drums instead of deep yearning. But it's fun and he's extremely talented. Maybe I'm just jealous that I can't play like that though.

It's odd.
It's a drum feature. End of.
Sure he does some stuff that’s over the top but when you look at some of the stuff he’s doing with the Michael Jackson covers, while the drum parts are absolutely insane, they are also insanely musical and completely, and perfectly fit the song. He also had one that was a Latin track and his drum part was a giant ball of fire. Anybody that says this guy just overplays must’ve only popped in here and there when they saw a song title they wanted to see. They are definitely not content followers.
Great analysis after the intro!
Yes, that's exactly what it is: the video channel of an absolutely exceptional drummer.
Anyone who thinks it is overplaying should listen in 75% or 50% speed to actually hear what he is playing. It is ridiculous how clean and accurate he is.
💯👌
The playing is phenomenal
I doubt he’s amazing technically. Absolutely incredible but TO ME I think he does overplay most songs. He is bad ass but at times it loses the feel of the song. Although the folks he adds sometimes are really good.
@@Keith_X Overplaying the song to show his skills is the point of his videos. If he played the songs correctly, he wouldn't have more than 3 millions subscribers.
there's no such thing as "overplaying" when you're performing a showcase :-)
I feel like he pulled way back on the chops and played more sympathetically to the source material than many of the other amazing covers he’s done. This is fantastic.
I'm not a drummer but I can feel his style put over the original song. It's elegant and not overcooked.
Yes!
I love drummers breaking down while watching him play 😇

Oh totally.

Kudos to user very good analyzation in Temple sitting for us new drummers. Thank you for the first part of the tempo setting. I learned a lot off of that I do not know how to read music but you're making it easy for me. And great up to par innovation and explaining what he's doing I appreciate you. And Bravo's to😊 Mr.El he is by far my favorite drummer in the world right now he's like an AI Akri MPC 2500. Maybe someday I can be good enough as you guys but for now I'm enjoying all these videos so thank you very much!
With my dude it's hardly ever "over playing." This is just El Estepario Siberiano just playing. In every sense of the word. Good analysis. Great execution and exhibition on his part. One
Jabalí de corazón y mente,nada puede pararte,un ehemplo para cualquiera.FELICIDADES 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Even with the overplaying can you close your eyes a moment and still sway your head to the beat? That´s the magic, damn!!! Complainers need to overpractice! this guy is something else. Thanks Andrew!! loved your analysis.
I'm not Musician but he is amazing. He actually accentuates the lyrics and vocals of the songs.
What he does on this song blows me away. Keeping that beat with adding the technical stuff is hard.
I'm a bass player of 35 plus years experience and even I truly enjoy watching him play with his flavor as I do when doing a cover on the bass.
I`d be curious to hear your explanation of some of his chops eg at downbeat switch to cut time thing (?) at 3:55 and/or that limp wrist ghost note paradiddle thing at 4:02. I've been drumming for like 25 years off and on and while I'm pretty amateur, I have no clue what the sticking is there (4:02) vs the concept at 3:55 (eg halftime? cut time? Polyrhythm?). I've never seen anything like this guy before... Love your channel sir.
He is so right about the guitar parts. They are perfect!!
Incredible Tommy. Whole composition and performance
That snare sounds amazing!
YUP
I'm a non instrument player. All I can say is ESTEPARIO is the first person to convince me drums are a musical instrument.
Guilty non drummer 🙋🏻♂️ I find your videos fascinating. Keep pumping them out buddy.
Thanks, will do!
So bad ass! Mouth dropping so great to watch and listen. Sometimes so overwhelming and independancy of every part of arm or leg. Amazing!
I subscribed!! I love your vids reacting to the vids I also love. Middle aged guy here learning the drums.
Thanks for watching!
What can be said about this man that hasn't been already. Earned his title and he keeps proving he's the best drummer on the planet..
I'm not a drummer, but the breakdown of what's going on is really cool. It's hard for a non-drummer to hear exactly what is going on in the song, without knowing that it's hard to tell if he's good or just overplaying. It's like watching Steve Vai or listening to dubstep, I have just enough time on guitar and in music to know what he's playing, but there are times when it feels like it goes a bit far and although it's all technically correct and beautiful in its own way I can tell that many wouldn't get it.
Thank you!
That was fun! Thanks Andrew!
9:50 To the question, how much power does a drummer have? This is the answer! When he slows the beat down it feels like ALL other instruments slow down along with him! When they don't. This is how much power a drummer have on the whole thing! To me it is mind bending, to some extent.
PS: if you like that guitar. you might want to listen to "Un autre monde" from Telephone. The last minute of the song is amazing. I am sure you would enjoy it. ^__-
Watched both your covers after you pointed out you already covered it. Song is more difficult than I thought. I’m not a drummer but I like the simple complexity it seems to have
From my generation and yes, the solo at the end of the song is one of the best ever, and I was a EVH guy.
His fills are uncanny. Freakishly talented. Wonder how he gets his brain to slow down. I say f'n impossible
Pink Floyd
Comfortably Numb
- 2nd solo
....best solo in rock history to date
I've a TFF live performance of the song from the early 1990s in which the drummer is playing all the notes on the hi-hat with both hands, playing the snare with his left. Which in my book gives you license to play the groove however you want. Still really satisfying to do it properly though.
As to your comment on Estepario absolutely right! He should showcase his own character on his channel. Some people are just haters saying negative things about that.
He is amazing!
A monster .,.... period His facility and musicality second to none
Keith Moon was a drummer who would hardly play the song the same twice. He would always like to throw a new fill into each time it was played. Some like hearing new adds to a song giving it a freshness that can bring back the song to a new feel. Much like musicians that do remakes to a old cover. Sometimes making the song even more popular than the original.
The point is that he can play anything he wants with ease..That is what makes him the best drummer out there right now
What a monster!! Awesome is just the beginning...
Love your reactions to El Estepario. And I am not even a drummer!
THANKS
what l value about this guy is that he breaks through the oldschool way - practicing a million hours until you dream about it - in an age in which music is dictated by plugin/ AI/ autotune/ autogrid/autofuckingeverything
A beautiful song no matter who is in the pocket but the flavor and taste that this man adds to it is most amazing.
For those students interested in understanding the correct terminology of the note values of this pattern - the original Hi Hat part is simply crotchet triplets (1/4 note triplets.) They can start either on the beat, or in this case, off the beat.
💯👌
Damn right I remember those books & yes, Tears for Fears “Everybody Wants To Rule The World”, is absolutely 1 of the best 80’s Pop ALL-TIME! Yes, I’m a Gen X’er too!
My observation (since everybody else has observed everything else); El Estepario Siberiano never "overplays" the cymbals. They're hit when they need to be hit, left alone otherwise. I like that. Excessive cymbals annoys me, well not the "clock" on the ride cymbal, it can be abused.
Well said 💯👌
9:01 In the middle of a syncopated groove he needs to scratch his nose so just switches to left-handed for a few beats, and if you aren't watching you don't even hear the difference. This might be the smallest thing to focus on, but it's little things like this that you realize how second-nature this is to him.
Yup his sticks are an extension of his brain at this point
He definitely knows he’s beats and bars!!!
Sure does
He can be over the top as much as he wants because in the end, it still sounds great
That's the trick.
Overplaying? Or under executing?
Vinnie has proved you can get away with murder if you're good enough
@@AndrewRooneyDrums exactly
I watch USCSB videos for fun.
I'm all here for the analysis :>
Question: did u already seen his last interview in thewildproyect? Its really important to understand his way to play
No haven't seen it
He also mentions to remember that we control time, which is why he modulated so much
I agree. He made it beautifully...
i'm not a drummer and i've seen in a few videos that swapping hands is normal for drummers but @9:03 (it is repeated a few times) he scratches his nose and while his right hand is busy he picks up that track with his left :x
It absolutely is a stunning guitar solo
One of the best!
Thanks for the analysis. I'm not a drummer but I appreciate the insight.
Yo flipo con este hombre tambien, es una gran maquina de tocar
EES is not playing - he is doing playback to an edited studio recording. You can´t say if he is playing or if it is programmed in a DAW
