"Remember...the rhythm is" From the free initial fills to the disparity of the groove... shivers with your mouth open! another great one who will be missed! R.I.P. Aaron
Carter Beauford does that all the damn time, too, when he's drumming! He makes it look so easy you don't really realize how good he is sometimes. Aaron is on another planet, though. I just don't understand this guy. He's an alien and I want to be abducted!
Man! Aaron is one of those few drummers who make something technically challenging look as easy as smoking a cigarette! His chops and fluidity is just ridiculous! 👍🏻
i think those are the best kind of drummers. it just kills it when someone looks like they are struggling, even if what they are playing is very impressive. making it look easy kinda takes it from a skill to being art.
The power hits on the snare fills are awesome and drop into the pocket of the rhythm like nothing else. The anticipation of the "Mambo" vocals and the accompanying symbol smash really lends to the musicality of the piece and marks it as a sharp departure from your typical noisy drum solo.
i love one thing about aaron spears, apart from the fact that his rudiments and groove is heavy, his rudiments are always so creative and very challenging to understand what he even plays at times especially the rudiments and his breaks and his timing .
If that water bottle at 3:02 landed right side up, this would be the greatest video of all time. But seriously, Aaron you are unreal! So much power💪🏼💪🏼
Wowza, I heard your name mentioned by Matt drummer of ABR and thought I’d check you out….. Soooooooo glad I did cause you have a gift from God that is out of this world. Awesome work Aaron, an inspiration I’ll never forget. Thank you brother.
It seriously looks like he put no effort into this masterpiece. With like chewing gum and literally staring away from the drums the whole time and looking like he's just chilling. That's awesome
Últimamente se fueron grandes bateristas el caso de Joy Jordison, Neil Pearl, Taylor Hawkin , pero realmente la partida de Aaron Spears me deje devastado 😢 estoy muy triste cada vez q lo veo en alguna foto o video. QEPD Aaron gracias por tu Arte.
Does anyone know if zildjian forces their artists to play their spiral stackers as a plug to sell more? I can't imagine anyone really going crazy after that sound...
IDK I see some use for it. But what it does for that crash is done much better by the Trashformer. Only drummer who I know uses the spirals is Ray Luzier and if I'm right he had Sabian make them for him (since he is a Sabian endorser)
No. He has been using this stack for quite some time now. I don't know of any company that does unless it's a quick promo video to promote a new product.
think he might have got that from Carter Beauford.. I could be wrong. I just know Carter always chews double bubble. Aaron kills it..I love the snare work. keep up the great work.
RIP the legend, your inspiration on the drums will carry through many generations of drummers.😔❤
😢
Facts. A legend.

another great one who will be missed!
R.I.P. Aaron
Rest in peace Aaron we will not forget what a great drummer you were
he's just so insanely awesome. I could look at his hand technique 24/7.
I owe Aaron Spears where I am today. His rhythm will be remembered.
This guy is so awesome. His "caught up" performance on MD festival 2006 is still one of my favorite drum videos of all time.
Yes! I watch it often.. The hihat stand just gives out half way through -
I always admire those heavy yet light looking quick chops and fills he make while playing. It never gets old.
An absolute legend in every regard, rest easy. I remember being in some class my freshman year watching this, what a major introduction to this beast.
RIP man. So much love from South Africa ❤
I love how he blows bubbles so nonchalantly. Truly cool AF.

Reminds me of Stanley Randolph😏
@@santiagogarcia9436 thank you boss for dropout this very groove before you left, RIP
Nobody can drive a beat like Aaron. And this is a whole new level of chops and creativity for him. World class....NO.....UNIVERSE CLASS artistry!!
Man! Aaron is one of those few drummers who make something technically challenging look as easy as smoking a cigarette! His chops and fluidity is just ridiculous! 👍🏻

As soon as I heard the news, I came straight here. My condolences... Rest in Peace, Aaron Spears, and Rest in Beats.
This video inspired me so much and i feel like i wouldnt be the drummer i am without this performance. Rest in peace Aaron
what the fuck how is it possible that as a drummer I'm hearing this for first time in 2022. I'm amazed, so glad I did it. Masterpiece.
The power hits on the snare fills are awesome and drop into the pocket of the rhythm like nothing else. The anticipation of the "Mambo" vocals and the accompanying symbol smash really lends to the musicality of the piece and marks it as a sharp departure from your typical noisy drum solo.
Jeezus! This dude is insanely talented! Killer chops!
R.I.P. one of the best drummers there is. Sad that he left us at such an early point in his life.
i love one thing about aaron spears, apart from the fact that his rudiments and groove is heavy, his rudiments are always so creative and very challenging to understand what he even plays at times especially the rudiments and his breaks and his timing
.
Facts
the difference between working to "get there" and being born to "be there" is in his face.
pure talent...
AGREED!!!!
I.love watching Aaron play drums it's make me wanna burn my drumsticks
Awesome, Aaron spears is the legend
I listen to this daily
If that water bottle at 3:02 landed right side up, this would be the greatest video of all time.
But seriously, Aaron you are unreal! So much power💪🏼💪🏼
Adam, you should do a video breaking down some of the insane chops Aaron plays in this clip.
Yeah I agree with Evan, you should help us break some of these chops down

tastiest lick/groove will always go to Aaron Spears

R.I.P Brother, I'll always come back to remind myself of you here.
Great solo!!
Amazing!
Descanza en paz Aaron Spears :(
the least he could do is to even try to look like its difficult for him. even just a little.
▲GODSALAD▲
@Rex R to be honest, I'm surprised. I did not write this and I myself cannot understand what is written here
The audacity to blow bubbles and shit
@@allindesigner704 🤣🤣🤣🤣
awesome stuff

sooooooo good!
Legend. Live forever ❤🔥💯
TY AARON! 5* !

mtndewman1022 even more weird is theres an l80 underneath. which like doesnt have much sound. so its almost as if to just get the spiral sound only
Aaron is known to have crazy stacks on his kit and he's been using that stack for a while
Only stupid ppl like cooperdrummer use those lol
i love it !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
those rim shots sound amazing
R.I.P❤ we love you man. A legend
I love how he's just casually chewing a piece of gum
think he might have got that from Carter Beauford.. I could be wrong. I just know Carter always chews double bubble.
Aaron kills it..I love the snare work. keep up the great work.
Daniel Sears or dennis chambers
you're probably right. ..
TheLasagneLP Aaron Speers
like he is concentrating on the chewing gum and not on the drums ^^
3:01 plastic bottle "READY? (to dive)" YEAH!
Yes
Yeah jajajaja. Ready, at that moment, fall out!!
I can relate to that waterbottle
...and the floor tom mic just before it.
He was generating so much energy that his telekinetic powers were unleashing.
Your achievments are great. Keep it up!
oh my Gosh, awesome!
RIP SPEARS WE LOVE YOU BRO !
UNREAL
awesome!!
fucking brilliant. great work!
This is filthy, could listen to this all day.
Mildly obsessed with this track. Would love to hear the original thing it was sampled from. Think it’s DJ Shadow?
Makes you want to just "count to 6"...for 3 minutes and change! Lol Helluva internal clock there, Aaron :-)
