    People who don't play any of these instruments probably can't grasp how hard it is to simply play the guitar or piano with a different beat pattern from the drums. To have every limb accomplishing a different task at once on separate rhythms is insanely difficult. Sometimes its hard enough just trying to sing with a certain rhythm of guitar/instrument. Insane.

    Doing what you did here is so hard as a musician, even a multi-instrumentalist who’s recording this all separately. You trying to hit the kick drum while doing the keys with your left hand and guitar plucking with your right hand, your body wants to automatically move, and hit in predictive ways. You’re training your brain to instinctively lose that automatic capability, and forcing yourself to play all these things at the same time. Kudos. You Povlov-ed your brain a little😂😂😂
