Its astounding how underrated and I would even go so far as to say underappreciated musicians of this calibre are simply because of the genre of music they prefer to play.
You can immediately tell you got nolly to mix his meinl festival videos. Nolly’s mixes always sound better than everyone else in the world no joke. Meinl should hire nolly to do their mixing for their meinl festivals and meinl videos cause he makes the cymbals and drums sound so powerful and lively but also you hear every dynamic and detail. Listen to the other mixes of this meinl festival besides rudinger’s performance, it’s a HUGE difference in drum tone and cymbal quality. THAT SNARESEE AND TOMS
Amen, Nolly's mixes are so recognizable to me now, he's a mastermind. His work combined with Rudinger's (or Halpern's) prowess is truly a gift to the music world
Yeah I mean not tryna be negative but when he tries to play other styles it just sounds like a metal drummer playing metal fills to another genre but when he plays this style of music, he truely truely shines and that’s how he made a name for himself. I don’t hate he’s trying to branch out and be more versatile but comparing a performance like this compared to his kaz Rodriguez play along track and jake Bowen’s solo material, this shit is so much better.
I struggle to dislike anything he's done - even if it's a note for note transcribed cover, everything is just so tasteful - definitely prefer this type of thing though as I do love a good heavy tune as well as 7H7E
Inspired, now I want to make music like this, in fact, I'm in the process of learning everything I can, drums, synths and also guitar. No, I will never play exactly like Alex nor do I intend to. It's the dark synths combined with drum patterns like these and guitar riffs that get me all fired up. What a musician... only Alex can do this. Thanks for uploading MEINL!
Your drumming was tasteful and crisp as always but man the song as a whole was absolutely beautiful! Felt this one right in the chest! Raised hairs, goosebumps, and a tear all in one!
@@julienpontus3225 gojira is a one of the best metal band ,because of the alchemy between each member ,though individually they are not the best ,Mario is good but less talented obviously
Late to the party.. But I think that gives the section much more flavor tbh. I know it's usually something you wanna avoid, but that stick click stood out to me and made it sound a lot more interesting.
Yeah for the level of skill and perfection Alex is, he should be very well compensated. I did recently peep that tosin abasi from AAL is making some money now but he seems to be more industrious than the typical ….savants I would dare call this breed
4 years l8r im still coming back to this video. The fills and the way they r phrased r just too good man.
Big same, I actually use this video for testing out new headphones :D
Its astounding how underrated and I would even go so far as to say underappreciated musicians of this calibre are simply because of the genre of music they prefer to play.
People tend to see us a noise machines, even when we play stuff like this. No I'm not comparing myself to him, Alex is a fucking god
Check out Chris Turner
@@nickgreen904 way ahead of you buddy

There is no one in the world who sounds like this guy.. it's so stunning!
Travis Orbin... who Alex took a few lessons from :)
@@t3hgir preach. I fucking love Rudi but Orbz is still the OG for that sheer precision and power tip.
Wow his kit sounds even better in a large room. He has a real ear for tone and resonance.
I was there in the room; obviously they sounded different without the mixing by Nolly.
@@rubyreddrums How much different did they sound there in the room versus this video/Nolly mix?
He always play with clean sound. He execute every strike very clear. There is no one like Alex. No other metal drummer can do like what he does.
He would have to be one of the most disciplined drummers ever,absolutely amazing to watch
that's what i like about alex when playing drums
Oh my god, Alex's hits are on another level...
After all these years, he still remains one of the best metal drummers imo. Such power and precision.
The most amazing music that fits in with Alex's style of playing, It makes an epic combo.
Look up 7 Horns 7 Eyes - Alex covered "The Winnowing" a while back and it's an amazing song - I would be beyond stoked if Alex joined them

God bless the audio man.👌
I knew from the very first snare hit this was a Nolly mix. God I love his mixing.
Don’t care for this style of music but I’ll watch Alex drum all day! Drums and cymbals sound amazing!

Someone give the sound guy a big hug, sounds huge and punchy 👏 killer drummer as well, goes without saying🤩
Mister Adam "Nolly" Getgood himself
The most ambitious super incredible drummer of our time this is so sick Alex
There's no such thing as perfection... This is the closest thing
Alex is in a place where time and space doesn't matter anymore! This level of drumming is out of this world! ^^
Maaaaan this is a heavy song wow
Sensational!! Great performance Alex.
I love his style on the kit. Powerful and precise.
Alex "THE BEAST" Rudinger ! Amazing, as always. But Meinl, please, we NEED a footcam for these videos! : )
Alex and Nolly are a match made for each other! I've spent countless hours trying to get my snare and toms to sound like this.... not even close!
Always impressed with Alex's drumming!
Your drumming was tasteful and crisp as always but man the song as a whole was absolutely beautiful! Felt this one right in the chest! Raised hairs, goosebumps, and a tear all in one!
So sick! Gonna have to check out this band now. Alex is a legend
Wow,absolut Perfekt 💥👍🤘
Omg a new alex rudinger vid! Nice! Amazing playing!
Let me just see here... yep, still the sickest on earth.
along with Mario Duplantier
@@julienpontus3225 Mario is amazing, but far less technically advanced than Rudinger
@@julienpontus3225 gojira is a one of the best metal band ,because of the alchemy between each member ,though individually they are not the best ,Mario is good but less talented obviously
I thought so too until I saw Chris Turner :O
I need a new conquering dystopia album
The drumming is awesome and complex,but the song also,very melodic and ambiental.
amazing sound and amazing drummer
Excelsior my friend 🚀👑🤘🏼☝🏼
A very few places where the hits were lighter than I believe that he intended them to be but overall an AMAZING and HEARTFELT preformance.
Pure talent. Congratulations...
2:00 slammed the sticks into each other but still sounded tasty.
Just saw that. He also sounds like he is having a tough decision whether or not to go hard or less hard on the snare at times.
Late to the party.. But I think that gives the section much more flavor tbh. I know it's usually something you wanna avoid, but that stick click stood out to me and made it sound a lot more interesting.
Nothing but pure passion. It's inspiring, man! \m/
So fun to watch, never gets old!
He makes heavy playing sound beautiful, big props bro✌😎
Fuckin brutal man, i got this on repeat in my ears while i work keeps me motivated as fuuuck
What a great song to play drums on and what a great drumsound and ofcourse drumming of Alex!!! Cheers, Jeroen Simons, Independent/ ex- EPICA.
Last parts are flipping complicated,we will never be able to understand such complexities ,take my hat off to you good sir Alex
1:47 Groove and Fill of the century
HELL YES! so clean man!
Just when you think it doesn't get any better....sick\m/
He's actually the best drummer in the world.
techniques,speed,destroyer for me the best in the world right now!!!!
Freakin technically awesome.. The best Alex Rudinger...👏👏👏👍
I can't even come up with a comment that successfully explains how much this just fucking blew my mind.
I love how he hits so hard, that the bottom cymbal of his stack got turned the other way :D
I love alex
those tamas are killing me. ughhhh sound so o good
King over all king's !
So clean
Incredibly inspiring!
I wish this song was released on RUclips. It is so fucking sick.
IS THAT THE JOHNNY TEMPESTA SIG SNARE? SOUNDS PHENOMENAL! AS DOES THE WHOLE DRUM SOUND! WAY TO GO, MEINL, ALEX AND NOLLY ! : )
Kind of sounds like it belongs in a Mass Effect game. Can't wait to hear the finished track!
impressive like all the another videos
Boys in 7h7e made a fantastic record. Rudi is a beeeasssstttt
WOwv thats amazing!!!!
That was A-W-E-S-O-M-E
How can you not like this? Who gave a thumb down? This is top level playing.
Legend
That sound... damn.
Yeah for the level of skill and perfection Alex is, he should be very well compensated. I did recently peep that tosin abasi from AAL is making some money now but he seems to be more industrious than the typical ….savants I would dare call this breed
Wow! Next Level!
I love how it looks like an earthquake whenever he hits the drums. He's a beast!
Awesome
Beast
Shit isn't even human. Such a clean job dude.
Extreme precises and hard rythm transition
The Alex we all know and love. #moreblastbeats 😂
Just beastly!
This mix sounds fucking glorious!!!
Insane
Geeebus Chist, man! 😍
It might be me,but if I sat there..I wouldn't be able to sit still for a second.!!
I never knew Alex was the drummer for this band? Been a big fan of this band since they first came out.
Ben Severance dido
Sadly he is not the drummer of 7Horns7Eyes
Hes just playing a song of theirs, which he does a lot, he currently is not in a band
top drum sound
FUCKING AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
my gosh....truely classy..
Just staggering
I mean... that snare sound... best snare sound ever?
GOAT
Noly is the beast , fvckin eargasm
Dude just wow! Fucking blown away!
this guy is a alien

Truly Amazing stuff !
But give him BIGGER crash cymbals xD !!
This guy is really an alien........

Does anyone know where i can listen to this song with the drums at normal volume? It seems that this video is the only place where this song is
And in my house was opened a new dimension.
🙏🙏
Kick ass dude
He was the star of this year's festival for sure. Does anyone know the order for the 3 songs he performed?
Bad Ass !!!!
He's a robot. That kit sounds SO GOOD.
imagine... just imagine, what if he was so tuned in, in the level that his mind start to think "Fuck this laptop, it's a cymbal now!"
wow 👏👏👏
Fuck yeah
One man army.. Amazing!
