such an entertaining drummer to watch, quickly has become one of my favorites. not only is his groove/feel phenomenal, but i love his technique and touch on the drums. you can tell he's taking every single stroke into consideration while he's playing; i hope to have "feel" like him one day.
This is what is call intense.. He is playing really difficult stuff with no effort that's the story behind this video... He has a long story behind his drum kit very few people know that... I've never seen control & dynamics such drummer... Richard Spaven your inspiration of new generation... Massive amount of respect for you 🙏🙏🙏
No lo había escuchado demasiado a Richard. Pero he quedado alucinado. Que perfección, que delicadeza y que fineza para tocar! Otro distinto de este maravilloso arte de la batería!
+Keith Greene I have that Ride, it is FIRE! No, seriously: it's relatively quiet, but for this type of music, for anything RnB, Gospel, Blues and especially Jazz related, it is the killer. The bow is a bit too undefined for metal (bell is surprisingly clear and loud!), but for everything else, it's perfect.
Keith Greene I would let you play on it if you lived nearby, but I assume southern Germany might be a bit far for you? I can only give you the advice to sell 2 or three toms, and eat pure bread and water for a month and order yourself one of these marvellous babies! Tell me if you want some sound examples (besides the memphis-drumshop vids online).
And if I saw this guy on the street in that get up, I would never imagine he could groove so hard or that he even could play drums period. But he's so amazingly musical. Bravo!
excelente!! me encanto el estilo de este tipo, nada de esa cosa de tiempos irregulares o chops fuera de contexto, mantiene la musica ahi en el bolsillo como suelen decir.. todo mi respeto don richard
que de stéréotypes ,de cassures de rythmes , çà nous donne l'impression d(un moteur de truck en soucis d'allumage !!! c'est agaçant ,répétitif pour un drummer de cette envergure !!! je l'ai gommé de mes références en tant que tel!!!UN vrai cauchemard SKINDRUM
He's veeeery good ... veeeeeery good ... but i think he's the saddest drummer out there :( little sad teddy bear :( ... Chris Coleman being the happiest :D
I think it's tuned really high on both sides, and then dampened to cut out overtones. You can make your snare sound super dull and dead if you don't do it properly, Spaven does really well to make it sound great though
Very nice! Thumbs up! Question: How did you record this? I can see mics on the bass drum, the snare, the hihat and over the floor on your right. Not on the small tom, no overheads, room mics?
+Anthony Aspetos What you saw: the kick mics (2, one probably capturing a bit of the kit in a whole also, esp. the high tom), snare mic, hi hat mic (which serves for the extra dry crash as well) and the one you overlooked: another cymbal mike to his right, micing the right crash and the ride (which is slightly too silent in the mix for my taste) - and the floor tom.
It's Yamaha Maple Custom. Richard Spaven normaly plays Absolute Maple Hybrid: 18 "x14" bd, 10"x7" and 14"X13" toms and a 14"x6" Snare. You can see this setup in more recent videos published by Meinl. But on this video Richard Spaven is playing an older Maple Custom.
Good stickins ...not enough drumset---love. Here again catering to the human voice little songs tellin me what to think... We have to remember what BILLY HIGGINS SAID. YOU DON'T PLAY THE DRUMS ...RATHER YOU MAKE LOVE TO THEM....NICE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD GROOVE THO HE LOOKS BORED ...
Not hating on dude, never heard of him, seen a few videos in a row to see if i feel any inspiration and to give him a fair chance, about as inspiring as eating a plain rice cake

I agree! He is my favorite drummer... he is a real inspiration, and his style is very different than some drummers like Thomas Lang, Matt Garska,...
3 years later and I still get goosebumps every time I hear it. Now that's what I call quality.
May the groove always be with you 🙏🏼

this guy is like a little thom yorke of his own... what a great performance

Got to get this album... And that ride.
+Keith Greene It is FIRE!
+Doug Rogers Yeah, I love it. Now I just need to get that ride.

I have that Ride, it is FIRE!

Daniel Schröder Let me borrow it? J/K... Unless you'll really loan it to me. 😎

This is infectious groove and incredible skill
Sound of the kit reminds me of old roots questlove sound. Love this!
Didn't touch the toms once, that real groove
His gostnotes are unreal! So godamn tight!
I super like it.. hahaha.. the emotion of the song is unique to me.. i'm new to this.
I like how that breakdown is entirely in 4/4
Those Byanzce cymbals have so much texture in them it´s phenomenal.

Adam Luptak He's one of my new favorite drummers and i only heard of him a week ago. Them cymbals too.
Gavin Oswald So weird we find him around the same time. This dude is killing it
*****
Hahaha it's like a freaking reunion here!!!
Gavin Oswald ***** Well I mean we all have a pretty good reason to subscribe to Meinl cymbals...haha
Adam Luptak
Of course! They are the best out there!!!
awesome!! unreal
Genius.
That is the perfect blend of symbols
Pure art.
Nice!
What genre would this masterpiece fall into?
Can someone share the lyrics? Thank you
Anybody know what size snare and tuning on it? Looks 14x5.5, I imagine tuned high on both sides with muffling
Genial!

Oppa💖 awwwww
Dope
Can someone link lyrics please
❤
madness
He's veeeery good ... veeeeeery good ... but i think he's the saddest drummer out there :( little sad teddy bear :( ... Chris Coleman being the happiest :D
unurchuvurchu Taylor Hawkins is pretty happy
*constipated @Evan Hosley
:D
Ever seen someone as happy as Eric Moore?
Look for his clips on drumeo, dude
Must be that England weather. Lol.
definitely impressed!
Does anyone know if that's a 18" or 20" bass drum?
How does he tune his snare drum?
thalidomide1 Probably with a drum key.
Rory O'Neill no fucking way?!?
thalidomide1 Even though you might not believe it. It is true, I can confirm this.
thalidomide1 Way
bl00ber99 pics or it never happened
Que medidas usa en su shellpack?
God's gift
man ur insane
mmmmmm tastiness.
any clue what snare he's using?
El sonido de tarola es hipnotizante.
How did he get his snare to sound like that
I think it's tuned really high on both sides, and then dampened to cut out overtones. You can make your snare sound super dull and dead if you don't do it properly, Spaven does really well to make it sound great though
playing rimshots slightly below the center of the drum should help in achieving that sound too
whats the album name?
The album is self called SideIISide :)
And I think the song is on the "Whole Others" album !
All Soul Ricky x
Very nice! Thumbs up!
Question: How did you record this? I can see mics on the bass drum, the snare, the hihat and over the floor on your right. Not on the small tom, no overheads, room mics?
+Anthony Aspetos
What you saw: the kick mics (2, one probably capturing a bit of the kit in a whole also, esp. the high tom), snare mic, hi hat mic (which serves for the extra dry crash as well) and the one you overlooked: another cymbal mike to his right, micing the right crash and the ride (which is slightly too silent in the mix for my taste) - and the floor tom.
Anyone know which kit this is?
Yamaha Maple Custom.
+Mcwangwang Yamaha Absolute Maple Hybrid Drums
It's Yamaha Maple Custom. Richard Spaven normaly plays Absolute Maple Hybrid: 18 "x14" bd, 10"x7" and 14"X13" toms and a 14"x6" Snare. You can see this setup in more recent videos published by Meinl. But on this video Richard Spaven is playing an older Maple Custom.
I’m getting a Kimbra vibe....
4:59 😛
Plain snare hi hat and kick. No other decoration drums folks...
And groove..
Good stickins ...not enough drumset---love. Here again catering to the human voice little songs tellin me what to think... We have to remember what BILLY HIGGINS SAID. YOU DON'T PLAY THE DRUMS ...RATHER YOU MAKE LOVE TO THEM....NICE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD GROOVE THO HE LOOKS BORED ...
That was reaaaally bad.. in the best waay
Not hating on dude, never heard of him, seen a few videos in a row to see if i feel any inspiration and to give him a fair chance, about as inspiring as eating a plain rice cake
Then you must not know what GROOVE is.
Love this dude
