I know I am late to the party, but I just wanted to say - Well done! Excellent mechanical skills and very entertaining. Great foundational skills - in fact that shows mastery. I hope you have learned to bring in some musicality. If you want to know what I mean, listen to Buddy Rich's West Side Story drum solo. He actually intones the song "I Feel Pretty" on his snare drum. I saw him do it in person in the 1980s just before he passed away. He was amazing not only because of his stick control, but also because every song he played he complimented. He didnt just keep time. That is what makes a great drummer. They just dont keep time. You cant imagine that song any other way then the way they play and the song wouldnt be the same without the drums. That is Neil Peart's gift. He does it with every song. Best wishes for continued success!
greetings, I live in Brazil and I am eager to learn to play martial box but where I live there is no one to teach, I wonder what book I should buy to start my martial cash studies? congratulations on the videos, you are too. hug
It's gotta be the black wristbands. They are magical. all the good lines wear them! plus when I wear them in my line I feel like a NINJA On a lighter note: HOLY HERTA/FLAM DRAG that was awesome
You fancy joining my Corps of Drums by any chance lol. And for the record, he is holding his sticks the correct way a side-drummer should and his technique is flawless!!!
Nick does Quad drumming I hope I wasn’t expected to know that because honestly I’m a trumpet player. I commented this when I was about like 13 so, thanks for teaching me something :)
@@yes-rn5sk well i forgot about this lel. I will say that currently there isn't anything here that i can't play technically, putting it together and transcribing it would probably be the biggest challenge.
+PaperLantern Visuals I don't think it's meter that I'm talking about. Maybe it's my phone, but it's not giving me enough clarity to hear the individual hits on skin from one tap to the next. Please forgive my ignorance in theory, on which I know practically nothing about. Hence, the lack of proper terminology. Hope this explanation helps in clearing up what I'm trying to say. But I do play a little, but only by ear and self taught since I was 11. Now I'm older than I care to mention. But think I saw the last dinosaurs tail rounding the corner. Play purely for the love of music. By no means am I trying to belittle his abilities, only to hear how good he actually is. If I've been given anything in music as far as ability, it's got to be in the way I hear. I wish it were in playing or singing, but I'll take whatever I can get and be happy for it. Hey, I got too much time on my hands. Ya thimk ??? (lol) Later bud, and keep playing.
+Lawrence Kedz Hey man. I hope my comment didn't sound harsh. It wasn't my intention. But yeah, I could see how you would hear that. Even on my monitors it sounds sorta clipped and distorted. The on camera microphone he's using isn't the best for recording marching drums. The environment where he's recording also really contributes to how it sounds. (The Gym wasn't be best place to do it.)
+PaperLantern Visuals Yeah, I totally agree. That empty gym is creating havoc with that mic. Just maybe, if he were 2 or 3 feet closer "or" even further away, maybe it wouldn't be so bad. What I got is a Galaxy s5 hooked up to a couple of monster Fischers. And as long as I power them up to about 35% and keep the phone on a 2 or 3, the sound is usually great. But hearing this recording like that on this end, does his playing no justice. That's just too bad. Real good drummers are not easy to find. Don't think I saw your comment as harsh, but definitely saw that I didn't explain my problem with this recording sufficiently. If you heard what I'm hearing on this end, I have to think you'd agree. Have a good life my friend and keep playing.
Danny Pendergrass No he didn't, they had a sneak peek of the 2015 drumline and he was there, he did not age out. The video is on youtube if you don't believe me just look up blue devil 2015 drumline.

10 years later and this is still one of my favorite snare solos ever
Whoever tuned that snare deserves a raise.
TRUTH
yeah, no kidding
When you are not practicing, remember somewhere someone is practicing, and when you meet him, he will win. - Peter Bergman
That snare sounds amazing!
The clarinets are rushing
+Anthony Jackson ikr, and I think one of the trumpets is behind everyone else as well.
+Chris Mathew and one of the sax's is flat
HeresWhatsNext One of the mallets are an eighth note behind.
+Jesus Christ Wrong the drum major wasn't watching the snares feet.
+Anthony Jackson I don't know about you guys, but I couldn't hear the flutes
he wore rist bands cause he thought the sticks would get tired and sweat
*wristbands
I love you Jackson. ❤️
Absolutely fantastic. It's videos like this that make me wish I had 1) gotten into drumming a lot earlier and 2) kept up on my marching chops
"Nice Warm-up!" says Asian Dad.
Now I know what part of my bloodline I get the gift of playing from lol wow
Nick Fuck you.
NJI oh my fucking god 😂
Lmaooo
Never stop drumming, this is amazing!
Great solo!! Now your with BD and congrats on winning I&E gold this past season!!
no doubt you are single-handedly one of the best snare players i have ever seen keep up this great playing man.

That doesn't really have anything to do with this Solo.
I’m later😂
That was extremely well done nice job man, you have amazing stick and finger control love the snare too looks pretty sweet
Nice Warm-Up!
Man and to think I though this was going to suck. Nice chops man.
He did end up marching BD, after all
Oh yea! Nice!
There is nothing better and more perfect on this planet than this very drum solo by this sick SOAB. Wow. Just kill me why don't you
すげー！マジカッコいい！
Awersome and beautifull job
Man, I love watching kaito drum. As a musician in percussion and brass I love watching drum corps, and I have done wgi myself. (And marching band)
Kid, you have some serious talent. You will no doubt achieve greatness in the music world, Keep up the AWESOME work!!!!
I think if this was recorded outside or somewhere besides a gym it would have much more appeal. The acoustics in that gym give me a headache.
My god. Good god. Good job. Double thumbs up and applause.
Respect from italy 🇮🇹 Great artist best drum snare solo forever
Holy shit... that was amazing. What a freaking show :O.... Can't even words right now
surprised I haven't seen this but oh well.
1:43 Chopper preparing for flight
That was beautiful man... FREAKING AWESOME
respect. you deserved that spot on BDA's snare line!

This is the best drum solo ihave ever seen in my life
Well I have no words!! Fricken amazing!!! 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🍻🍻
Best solo iv ever seen. Only problem is there's no way anyone will ever get to see the sheet music for something like that
Wow that's awesome it's just flams, drags, pulse, single stroke, and rim shots, but the stick work is fantastic, might even try mimic some in my corps
that was the best snare solo I've ever seen
I doubt you have seen very many.
Holy crap......sweet baby lord Jesus!!!
Yep...out of all my students, he's definitely one of the best.
It's gotta be the black wristbands. They are magical. all the good lines wear them! plus when I wear them in my line I feel like a NINJA
On a lighter note: HOLY HERTA/FLAM DRAG that was awesome
Very awesome. But damn that gym echo ruins it for me
Tight playing, great focus and man those stick twirls and flips 🥁😎👌 bro this was fire 🔥 👏 great job.
The trumpets played a wrong note at 3:30

You could say Kaito likes hertas...
And ghost notes
you could also say haito likes kertas
im speechless, tht was just amamzing wow
nice warm up
Reminds me of Meshuggah. The snare patterns sound like something you'd hear from the bass drum of a Meshuggah song.
Ho Lee Fuk!!! Nice job!!
Richard Harpster I thought "Lee Fuk" was his name until I realized what you did with holy fuck.
CoralSuitFox SAME
Richard Harpster Fuck you.

"Hey Dad, I'm gonna warm up now!" Asian Son says to Asian Dad after the events of the video.
You r amazing :) God bless you & keep the druming up ;)

Monster chops! Whew! Wish I practiced my rudiments when I was a kid.
Well i thought i was good.
Im fucked
That was honestly insane man.. Awesome stuff!!

This is amazing, and I was actually watching a video of one of the drum corps and this guy was balancing a drumstick on a drumstick
Proably knows how to do this because he plays with his chop sticks at dinner time

Not an audio engineer, "BUT" I hope it's the poor recording that makes the timing so bad.
+Lawrence Kedz There's no specific meter. The timing is anything but bad.

What's wrong with Asians being better?
Adam Xiang did he say there was anything wrong? No all he said was that Asians are better at most things. Get your head straight
I play tenor sax and some how stumbled upon this and this is really amazing I have never heard anything close to it really really good job
excellence excelsior!!!!!!!!!!
wow that was amazing and i might even do the drums for the band this is a sneak peek of what i might do :0
That dexterity is almost freakin marine corps level man what the hell hahaha really good!
