    your signature "mmm" is my favourite part of this series

    @rammstein1985234 8 лет назад +7

    I love that during all that insanity his face looks bored and how he's chewing gum and almost blows a bubble at the end too. That just goes to show how relaxed and second nature this all is to him.

    • @abbdrums
      @abbdrums  8 лет назад

      yea it is pretty crazy how centered he can stay during that...

      +Simone white well I'm not playing a fixed kit , so it could be extended at some point. 4 Toms 1 kick wont be changed tho . so i guess i need more than 8 .

    Mind-blowing content. Austin is definitively in the top five RUclips channels dedicated to drum instruction.

    You should try transcripting what Matt Gartska, Blake Richardson do in their solos. Those guys are just beyond insanely good

  • @twelge15
    @twelge15 8 лет назад +1

    Everybody notice that even with fast crossover singles all over the set, Dennis is rooted like an anchor in his seat. Chewing his gum nonchalantly. Always facing forward. He always had the best posture of any dude.

  • @alecl9430
    @alecl9430 8 лет назад +1

    Incredible. Like you said, very simple in theory, but like everything Dennis has ever played, the execution is flawless and the orchestration and speed are unreal. Can't wait to see the next Vinnie STG, but I would like to continue voting after that. After all, it got us this video.

  • @michaelkennedy8843
    @michaelkennedy8843 8 лет назад +1

    The thing that blows my mind is that approx 1:33 Dennis is blowing a small bubble with his gum. All whilst ripping one of the greatest drum licks known to the drumming community.

  • @multigwilty5154
    @multigwilty5154 Год назад

    Dennis is a total monster and a huge part of the reason I got into drumming. In this particular era, young Dennis hit different. He was basically the champ.

  • @misscreant
    @misscreant 8 лет назад +1

    I love your STG videos and think it would be cool to see an episode where you go over your favorite grooves. Maybe break down your thoughts on how it compliments the songs, backs a soloist, affects the feel and emotion, ect. Not to take away from all the chops you showcase which are amazing and super fun to watch and learn from. I think it's important to see the other side of drumming- which is being the musical foundation of a song. You're an incredible drummer and seem like a cool dude, so thanks for making these videos for our community.

    • @abbdrums
      @abbdrums  8 лет назад

  • @MattHernandezDrums
    @MattHernandezDrums 8 лет назад

    thats the fastest lick ive ever seen! I feel like there is a lot more floor tom in your transcription but that might just be because the audio on your floor tom is so much better than the Dennis video. love all these STG!

    • @abbdrums
      @abbdrums  8 лет назад

      +Matt Hernandez Yea I was having trouble seeing each individual hit with his hands when I slowed it down. I tried out a lot of stickings and orchestrations that I thought it could be but this one was the only one that really made sense. And yea, my floor tom is much more prominent in the audio than his is in that video...

    • @MattHernandezDrums
      @MattHernandezDrums 8 лет назад

      Yea i agree, even at .25 speed here on RUclips was still difficult to see haha! Cant wait to see what Vinnie lick or groove you choose! Cheers!

      +Jack Caddy Thanks man. Right now I'm not in a band b/c I've just been focusing on building this channel and doing remote tracking sessions from my studio. I'm sure I'll eventually get back into a band situation so whenever I do that I'll let everyone know.

    don't be fooled by Austin and his ''we'll go ahead and try it and see what happens'' demeanor as he's about to demonstrate his STG lesson ... (he's a master class drummer who can play anything on a kit and i hope he makes a lot of money for it real soon!)

  • @yorkvonsydow3481
    @yorkvonsydow3481 8 лет назад

  • @ShadowDatsas
    @ShadowDatsas 8 лет назад +1

    Thank you very much for all these videos, it will definitely help my studies!
    May I suggest something: In your video descriptions, where you type ORIGINAL VIDEO, could also please type next to it a time stamp? e.g.:
    ORIGINAL VIDEO (~4:06):
    assuming the lick/fill starts somewhere around there.
    This is information that you already know so it wouldn't take more than a couple of seconds but I think it would help someone that has not seen the particular video before and would have to search through it to find where the exact location is.
    Once again thanks so much!
    EDIT: Yes I know that you show the specific part, but If I download the audio/video of the original, I would like to have a time-stamp at the file's name to make everything faster!

    • @abbdrums
      @abbdrums  8 лет назад +1

      yea that's a good suggestion... I'll try and start doing that from now on!

    Hey Austin, great as always! It's really beyond me, how Dennis can play this one so fast. Very difficult to figure out so great job on that too. Let me know if you need Vinnie... I always have some of his stuff flying around. :)

    • @abbdrums
      @abbdrums  8 лет назад

      For sure dude! I'm thinking something from the Baked Potato though cuz those are like my favorite Vinnie vids.

  • @DrGray_Drummer
    @DrGray_Drummer 7 лет назад +1

    The sticking is easy. Getting the L to the crash, and getting back to the crossover was sweet! Your speed was GREAT, Dennis is just not human lol. Almost proves there's a god. Guy doesn't have the luxury to read...He has a hell of an ear, and INSANE speed. The Vinny will be cool. The Gadd stuff isn't terribly difficult (with charts) but he has that "feel". Still live Paccaro, Rich, and for a "rock" drummer, Bonham influenced them all. Maybe not the chops, speed etc, but his groove is FAT!

  • @ShawnJonesHellion
    @ShawnJonesHellion 5 лет назад

    You are pretty good. I bet that humbleness is holding you back. I have the same problem. You must know you can to do. I test this on my recent heavy bag videos. Do i kick the heavy bag or or do i know the heavybag will fly when my leg diaplaces it. The heavybag wins when i merely try to kick it

  • @twelge15
    @twelge15 8 лет назад

    A lot of shows, and clinics, where I've seen Dennis play a few feet away (Mike Stern, Carlos Santana, etc) he throws in 32nd sextuplet doubles every 8th note on the bass drum. Or is that another lick??

  • @twelge15

    Dennis plays this lick a lot at the end of tune's finale. So it can actually be used in a rock, Latin, or Fusion setting, Austin.

    • @abbdrums
      @abbdrums  8 лет назад

      Yea I didn't say it couldn't work in different genres. I was just saying that it's mainly for contexts where it's like drummer go time, which would be like you said, ending finales and stuff...

  • @tdrum21

    • @abbdrums
      @abbdrums  8 лет назад +1

      +tdrum21 Yea it's a little further in. I think I did that for a tracking session recently and just left it there. Just takes away a little bit more of the overtones and sustain but I dig it.
