Odd time signatures should feel natural, and Marco talks about how to “make yourself at home”, break down odd meters, and count them in a comfortable way (like humming the subdivisions and making the counting musical). It’s much easier to build freedom when you can find the groupings that make the most sense to you.
Marco’s style is especially cool because he often preserves the backbeat, even though he’s working in odd time signatures.

Agree 💯 percent
I've seen him live so many times with so many bands and he always kills it. Truly is a living legend on drums.
i can't believe he isn't more famous. he's underrated
I just want to take some time to express my gratitude for Drumeo. You guys really created a wonderful platform for the drumming community. Your videos look and sound absolutely amazing. You're bringing the best drummers of all time. Marco is an amazing drummer and man does he have those strong good vibes going on. I watched the lesson in its entirety and I feel really grateful to have access to such high quality content for free on youtube. You all rock ! Thank you so much for all you do ! All the best and success to you and congrats on the well deserved million subscribers !
I hope you use ear protection. I'm 71yrs. old and music has taken its toll on me. Your one of the truly nice guys in the buisness.
VERY WELL SAID MY FRIEND THIS STUFF IS PRICELESS,CANT GET ENOUGH,WELL DONE DRUMEO!!!
@@dannygoodchild7568 I'm 36 and the ringing in my ears is starting to get worse.
I didn't use ear protection when I was younger, very stupid idea I had.
Always wear ear protection.
Very well said
We need more of Marco here on Drumeo, let's make it happen!
I love how Marco just radiates pure happiness at all times. Especially fantastic when he was playing for bands like Necrophagist.
Okay, Marco is the most complete drummer I have ever seen. Though he might be the most technical drummer in the universe, he plays so musically in the first song. Every part is so perfect. And he grooves like ...the drum sound and the cymbals are fantastic. Perfect mix. Marco is INCREDIBLE. And such a humble guy. An idol!
I had a drum lesson from this mad man when I was in 10th grade drumline, when he came to do a clinic at my school. It was life changing.
man that must have been one amazing lesson....marko is a true genius
@@debjitsmusicstudio Marco
Heck yeah! That would of been awesome!
It's a track called 'What if Toto Invented Metal' in the opening.
Ma maaaan, listen to falling in between from toto. toto did went metal, and it's amaaaazing
hahahah, holy shit. spot on.
There are so many amazing drummers alive today, and Many that have passed on, But this man has to be in the top 10 of all time to ever live, Or have lived.
That's quite a statement, but it could definitely be true.
I like the way you think!!!
True story your statement...
I think he definitely deserves the #1 spot for happiest drummers of all time at least. He just radiates joy whenever he's behind the kit.
I genuinely agree with you, an absolute master
Always mesmerizing. His performance on "Hand. Cannot. Erase." is also stellar!
Myk Wazowski him and Guthrie Govan made that album rival Porcupine Tree albums in calibre
@@TheAnimystro You overestimate
PT. Hand.Cannot.Erase>>PT.
Nope. Craig played on "To The Bone." along with Jeremy Stacey . Chad Wackerman played on " Happy Returns" the rest of the album was Marco. Cheers!
@@TheAnimystro that was the best setup of all SW albums. Not that the others were bad, on the contrary. But H.C.E. and the raven really achieved creatively a godlike tier as they delved into the progressive corners of SW's universe.
Holy crap, talk about professionalism, dedication and talent. Incredible
You couldn't pay him enough money for lesson like this,ALL FREE THANKS TOO DRUMEO
i was introduced to Marco via the Dream Theater auditions. the pure joy and euphoria he expresses while playing is one of the most sincere gratifying things I witness. I'm glad to be alive while he is. Remarkable.
One of the most insanely talented drummers and he is so loveable and down to earth. Absolute legend.
Marco in his closing solo, just played everything that has ever been played in the history of the Drum Kit; and then took it beyond...
I get Chaotic Good vibes from this man
The greatest drummer alive in my book.
Period.
Needless to say, Marco is pure Genius.
Thomas lang would annihilate him
@@dcmastermindfirst9418 Greyson Nekrutman...
@@levisalvini4110 Lol Necrutman is not even close to Lang.
You really don't know shit about drums
@@levisalvini4110 :'D
@@dcmastermindfirst9418
Annihilate him at what? Even if Lang is better what is he doing most of the time that Marco couldn't do too?
So, Lang might be a better drummer, but annihilate? LMAO what a dumbass take.
Complexity, power and accuracy. Very rare to see all three together like this. What a drummer!
Best thing ever that he didn't enter Dream Theater ! Way too creative to be with James LaBrie !
He had too much personality for those guys. They're much better off with the ever-uninspiring Mike Mangina.

Marco Minneman is such a nice guy. I met him before a performance from the Aristrocrates in my hometown in the Netherlands. He is very approachable, even before a performance.
The hell with making odd times feel comfortable! Make 4/4 uncomfortable!!! That's my motto. Hello? Where'd the band go?
Hahahaha. Youre my kind of drummer
Lololol my kind of drummer too
bro why not.....im down with you...lets take 4/4 brak em down into 32/16....lets make the subdivisions 5,5,3,7,5,4,3....fire
Remarkable!!! I am a music connoisseur from Indonesia, I have listened to and enjoyed various musical genres, but this is the first time I have seen a drummer able to play drums with a tempo that is like a roller coaster and also able to unify the sound of his drumming with tones that might be strange if heard by people who is not used to listening to instrumental music made by cool-handed musicians, he does it perfectly!
Marco is insane! I Love the way he play with a smile on his face, he really enjoy what he play! Thanks for this Drum Class!
"Freedom in odd times" - this might me the most helpful message i have ever got. Thank you.
This guy is Phenomenal, phenomenal drummer.
I'm not a drummer but I'll always make time to watch a Marco video. He really focuses on making everything he does, no matter how weird or technical, sound natural and energetic. I could watch him play all day.
It's always fun to watch Marco playing. The performance is always so effortless and joyful!
This one is a really inspiring character. What a great dude. Rock on Marco!
I just discovered this channel. As a composer, I have to say this is pure gold. Thank you very much for enriching our music world!
5/4 over 15/16. Okay, lets call it a day
But can he play a paradiddle? I rest my case.
@@jooplin LMAO
15/16 x 4 = 15/4 (5/4 x 3) That's simple.
not so complex, just odd time
15/16 is not hard as it sounds. Take 4/4 and delete one sixteenth note. Sounds almost like you’re just coming in on the upbeat, a tad early.
There's so much awesome drummers today... but Marco is still one of those I enjoy to see playing so much... so fun seeing him playing!
I'll never be able to wrap my brain around how incredibly technical Marco is. He's a full grown monster.
This man is a wizard of drumming, i had the pleasure to watch him play with the aristocrats in 2016 and he's playing is flawless. Definetely bring him back to more lessons!
Great stuff! Marco is such a musical guy. He does this stuff because he loves it, not just because he can. Love it!
Super fluid.
Gotta' love the way Marco thinks... absolutely brilliant.
This is an incredible drummer/musician.Maybe one of the best 4-5 progressive drummers that exist in this time period.Not only for the amazing technique but mostly for the sound and the dynamics that he can produce.And this specific DW set is nearly perfect!
I'm not a drummer, but Marco's drumming has always astonished me. He plays incredibly intricate pieces of music and makes it look effortless! I've heard some of his songs from The Aristocrats and it really leaves me speechless.
And the fact that he can manage different (and odd) time signatures at the same time... It's like taking coordination and laterality to inhuman levels.
I used to watch him on the Muppets. Amazing drummer!
the muppets ? wtf ? How and when and in what context ? If you have any video link of that I'd be super glad
Animal!
Could almost see that joke fly over peoples heads 😂😂 they damn near got taken out!
LOL! Best part though, love the confusion you caused there ;-)
When it comes to marco I can feel the power oozing through my viens.. He definitely knows how to make things hottt. 🔥🔥🔥🤘🤘🤘
In the beginning of my music revolution. I am a multi-instrumentalist in order of passion and talent(guitar, drums,bass)
With each and everyone I believed "theory" and "time" was nothing and at the least no freedom to do what you want and or like. I always said" I can feel it, I dont need a click"
And I didnt with my first band in high school, I could get away with it I was probably the best drummer in my high school but until I got in the real world of bands, not being able to work with a click KILLED ME. I realized alittle later (2015) that being fluent in theory and time is what leads to TRUE FREEDOM on any instrument . So self taught musicians I know we talk a big game, BUT we need to back it up !
Marco Minneman is one of the most underrated drummers of all time. The guy is a genius.....beyond total mastery of the instrument, his creativity in using that mastery is mind blowing. Sometimes its hard to even get your head around the things he is doing behind the kit. He IS the innovation curve when it comes to orchestration and unique rhythm patterns.
This was an awesome video.
he is not underrated
This man is just Unreal! Marco you are a wonderful human being, I'm so glad I could have taken a picture with you out of the Steven Wilson venue in Milan some year ago. You bring joy to that drums!
Everyone: 80386 brains
Marco: i7 8700K, 6 cores and hyper-threading
Sorry minneman is an i9 at least
Lars Ulrich: China and snare brains.
more like 64-core AMD Threadripper
@@u.v.s.5583 hahahahahahahahahaahahahaha so true
Das ist der absolute Hammer. Scavengers ist eine Hymne - dank(e) Marco!
Finally!!!!!!!! Thanks drumeo
Now we want donati
Yes, and Nicholas Barker! He's been praised by multiple prominent RUclips drummers, and there's very little recent video of him. Both are underrated drummers.
Voldemor t
Theyll get em definitely 😆
Don't know if Virgil will ever do it.
Yep, and he's gonna reverse the time lapse and create a vortex while playing.
Yes, we really, really want Donati.
Marco is an absolute beast! Love what he’s doing then and now, he plays with such heart and it radiates through the kit! Huge fan Man, keep up the great work
absolutely out of this world... I thought Donati was alone on his island..I was wrong. I first saw him in The Montreal drum festival and fell in love with his feel..and now I like his work with Steven Wilson. he masters every aspect of the different techniques he's using..he's musical and fun to watch..just took my breath away. again
Marco Minnemann has got to be one of the worlds best drummers, absolutely incredible!
The online audience goes wild! You got that right! That opening piece was astounding. I now resemble an allegator and I alege that Marco is the new master of the drumkit. He stands on the shoulders of giants such as Dave Weckl, Vinnie Colaiuta, Terry Bozzio, Neil Peart, Stewart Copeland, Bill Bruford, John Bonham, Nick Mason, etc with incredible dexterity and balance with the mind of a composer and writer along with the heart of scientist/magician and performer. He's a world class act. That's for certain.
The intro Tune is insanely excellent drumming
Marco is a true master! I saw him play live once with the Aristocrats. These guys blew my mind. Thanks Drumeo!
I first stumbled on to Marco bout 5 years ago , drums are in a whole different light ever since , The Aristocrats I gotta see before I die , ..I know I'll probably never play guitar again , but worth it to chance ...
This man is amazing!!! Never really watched him play before. Always knew who he was, just never took the time to check him out. Shame on me for depriving myself!!! On another note, this is proof that you don’t need a $5-$10K DW kit to sound good! This is a Design Series Kit! It’s all about the player!!!
Never realized how good his posture is. Makes sense.
Yeah, he always had good posture though. I was watching his old dvd from 2001 and his posture is the same. It's funny how low he sits though, since he's 6'5".
The BEST drummer ALIVE!
The Joy on his face as he destroys everyone's minds in the room is frightening.
5 groups of 3 was mesmerizing. That's where it got very groovy you almost forget the odd time. God I love Minnemann!
thank you world for having marco minneman alive in our generation
what a phenomenal drummer.
Holy hell, first Gavin Harrison, now Marco Minnemann. Only Danny Carey left until the prog metal tribunal is completed
Trifecta not tribunal lolz
I'd gladly see Mario Duplantier or Thomas Haake on here too, but I agree with the sentiment
@@iloveNgany yeah, been playing Morrowind so I got them mixed up, sorry about that
@@myilmazalper dude i need to play morrowind again
@@t3hgir it's a great game to reexperience once every while, I say go ahead and jump in lol
The solo is as long as a concert, real lover of drums, organic approach and such an authentic style of his own. Really happy to be able to witness this.
Marco is driving a car with 28 cylinders when most of us have 6. Dude is just gifted! What amazes me most is how he lands his plane with all the creativity and intelligence. Most of us have ideas floating in our heads--he takes them and brings them to life. This is extremely high level learning. Lastly, most of us might get lucky and play in a good classic rock band consistently so as much fun this is, it has little outlet. Too much of this can make playing straight groove and time difficult.
Yeah 🤘🏻. This guy rocks.
Now I want Shannon Larkin. I love his style to play with Godsmack and his stunning showmanship!
Thanks Drumeo
I've never seen Marco talk about music before. Glad to see a prog legend who actually understands odd time signatures (rather than joe shmo who says 15/16 is cool because odd). Anyone in music should listen to him talk about time signatures and counting vs feeling rhythms in the first 20min of this vid. Finally someone who gets it!
Some of the best drumming ever published, period.
And here's me practicing basic 1/8 note patterns between HH SD and BD... I know he's trying to make it sound approachable, but as a beginner even hearing him try to explain is twisting my brain.
Yeah, I know what you mean. I have been playing for nearly 3 years now but I am still a complete newbie when it comes to technical things and odd times.
These are, without a doubt, advanced techniques. Do not be discouraged. As the host says, use it as inspiration and motivation. Take away whatever you can. And also just appreciate the wonder that is Marco.
Got me in the first 10 sec of song... what amazing coordination and orquestration...
Great stuff delivered by a master drummer and teacher. Very inspiring.
By the way, fantastic solo, it's impossible to describe how utterly amazing that was, such a wide range of goodies in there, wow!
even his shirt is incredible!!!
Loved the Iron Maiden reference :) Drum to the hiiiiiiiiiiiills...
My Gosh, He is Absolutely Amazing!!
Truly appreciative that I got to see this absolutely sick drummer live with The Aristocrats. What a goddamn gig!
really special drumming. writing out the pattern actually makes it easy the play the basic grooves. Marco , thank you for s great tutorial on how to do this and sharing it. Great job, I will be playing this
He has played in so many diverse styles. I think he is a rare occasion.
That groove at 30.00 is just mind blowing! Love this guy!
This guy spreads so much joy when he plays... absolutely incredible... and refreshing... I will never be able to play 0,50 % of what he's able to do... but I think I can learn some good tricks.
One of those drummers from another planet. 🤗
Only a few get to that level.
@WhoDarestheMAN gamer not important. This is only music
Minnemann - one of the finest. Period.
IMAGINE MARCO MINNEMAN IN DREAM THEATER, WHAT A POTENTIAL OF CREATIVITY AND FEELING ON THE SONG, WITH ALL RESPECT AND HONOUR FOR MIKE MANGINI
he is so fluid in his playing
Would love to see Baard Kolstad on Drumeo one day, that man perceives time differently.
Would love to see him, too.
Oh yes ! An amazing drummer !
Finally! One of my favorite drummers of all time and how about the sound of his set! Doesn't get any better!! Yes! thanks drumeo
That is what I love from his playing , his freedom...and freedom in drumming in general!
This needs more views. He is one of the best in the world, top level drummer 🥁 👏🫶
Found my new favorite drummer. 100%
One of the greatest drummers ever.
What a snare tone!
Das Scavenger Intro ist der absolute Hammer. Außerdem freue mich schon auf das neue Aristocrats-Album. Marco verbreitet einfach gute Energie
Truly Marco Minnemans is an incredible drummer!
Finally Marcos whole lesson on this channel! Yes!!!
Minnemann is maximann!
Greetings from France.
Marc De Douvan lol
Before I start practicing I just want to say !!! Marco's shirt its the best !!!
Best drummer ever on drumeo
unreal when he decides to do 5 on left hand, 7 with his right hand, and 9 between his feet...
music should be FUN..... I think it's unhealthy that so many drummers COUNT etc. (I grew up as a tween listening to sick time signatures from the Mahavishnu Orchestra, King Crimson, MAGMA, ELP, et al... and I never ever count. I FEEL it all and play by FEELING. I refuse to count or make drumming academic.)
In fact, my fave time signature is 1/1.
(Every musician can put the accents (etc) anywhere they want. Everyone is at the same tempo, so it works fine!)(ELASTIC! Wheeee!)
I keep missing it, whats the timestamp?
@@dumpygoodness4086 you can't count then is what you're saying?
@@suicidalalpacas8652 Lazy and juvenile "rebuttal", dude. NOT COOL.
(Plus, I was teacher's pet in MATH class.)
THEY ARE TEACHING YOUNG MUSICIANS BAD THINGS.
EX:
your Langs and your Vais and ALL of them tell kids "START SLOW TO A METRONOME, and build your speed and accuracy", which KILLS THE FUN OF MUSIC. My way is start sloppy and wild and HAVE FUN EVERY TIME.... and you'll get tighter and tighter and tighter (same as TLang and the rest's more-UN-FUN way) but WITH ZERO % of the MONOTONY or "work-like" exercises. (And all other drummers say I'm brilliant, so evidently my way works! I've had a drumkit for TWO MONTHS and i'm
already doing insane stunts!)
I TRY TO HELP MY FELLOW HUMANS ENJOY THEIR LIVES MORE.
RULE #1: DO THE OPPOSITE OF WHAT THE GROUPTHINK TELLS YOU.
@@dumpygoodness4086 so you're not a drummer and you're just trolling... got it
1970 Bonham hair with 1980 Bonham beard.
this guy became my new favorite drummer.
Marco has the fresh air what DT needed, but...Marco bro! you are the best!!!
what an unbelievable drummer. incredible rhythms, wow.
What a treat to sit do close to a master at work...Marco is a lucky man...😁
Thanks, Drumeo and Marco.
Marco is phenomenal. What else is there to say
Marco is really awesome here.
