Better / more creative / more musical take (imo) here: • Sewerslvt - "Mr. Kill ... - has some mistakes and way less views, but i don't care, I still think it's better.
Audio recorded on one mic pointed at the snare, video from a GoPro Hero White hung from a ceiling pipe.
in love with how absolutely destroyed your cymbals are
Hahaha I am too...although it'd be cool to still have a few left that *weren't* destroyed.
(sad trombone)
@@karlfagerstrom idk the sound of em really fits the the song
@@semiotxt I've definitely adjusted to the busted out cymbal sound over time
@@karlfagerstrom i thought you did that to them on purpose 😂 they sound amazing
I do think i prefer somewhat busted to perfectly intact - and I do tape my cymbals when they're new to deaden them a bit. But that ride is realllllly hanging by a thread in my latest videos haha...the other day a giant sickle shaped chunk flew off of it that was about two inches thick and stretched about halfway around the cymbal
How do drummers just not burst into flames?????????
We sweat a *ton.*

If this is a regular show reference, you win this comment section
yk that is actually possible
(extremely odd and rare phenomenon)
I commented in the original song video "imagine a drummer playing this"
Dude you are a legend
Thank you Gumiero 🙏
That's what I think of. brutal dnb breaks and so much room for a real drummer to fuckin shine hard
@creepergab TM most of sewerslvt ain breakcore
6:44 was for you
@@maheswarxo6466yes it is? That’s like her main genre
His cymbals are just art
They've only gotten worse
@@karlfagerstrom just like me fr
"That's it, I'm rolling up my pajama pants for this one"
😄 I swear it's best way to play
Petition to get him a better drum kit.
I'd sign it
Whoa 111 likes
Must be a sign
I'll sign it
No. It’s perfect. òvvvvó the drum kit has personality. I personally hate the breaking-in phase. That’s just me though. Haha
I'd sign
this has the exact same feeling as a level select screen for a ps2 racing game
that must be exactly where my love for DnB, and later breakcore came from: MGS2, Need For Speed, and other PS2/Xbox/GCN era games. You hit it right on the money lol
@@KBird204 full names plz
True very much true
Ridge Racer Type 4 kinda feel
This guy took “work with what you got” to a whole new level. Respect 👊👊
You should see my cymbals *now*... I'm shredding them faster than I can acquire them. Gotta keep going though
@@karlfagerstrom nice
I was hoping someone out there would do the beats from Sewerslvt's music on a real drum kit and you didn't dissapoint. This is what I imagine a live set version of her music would sound like if she ever toured. It would be interesting to see her songs performed with as many traditional instruments as possible.
It'd be tough since what she does is very sample-based, but I'd gladly play musical director and write out parts for instruments if that fairy tale ever happened
if she toured theres no way she'd actually be able to play this. idk if she can actually play the drums lol, she uses breakbeat samples, not record them live or anything
Oh, no producer can play *anything* hahaha (or, at least, it's pretty rare). All these breakcore producers are just dowloading a very frequently used sample and chopping it. Which is fine, as long as they do it creatively (and maybe try, I dunno, getting more creative with the sampling as well - i get really tired of any genre or artist that's just a copy of a copy x 10000000000000000000 which is definitely a huge problem in breakcore).
@@karlfagerstrom too real haha, the only real creative part in breakcore now is just the actual melodies and everything else but the drums since the drums have probably been done before lol.
>she
You crazy bastard, you actually did it. Awesome.
I definitely struggled to keep creative for an entire 8 minute track with a limited selection of chops :O but I think I did a slightly better job of it on the "Last Take" video (but it also had a couple light mess ups):
th-cam.com/video/60pGEmmD6N0/w-d-xo.html
Even his goddamn wooden stool has some wear and tear that matches the drum set ahahaha
Nothing I own works properly. This Macbook I'm typing on is probably older than some of my subscribers. And if I won the lottery tomorrow, I probably wouldn't change a thing.
@@karlfagerstrom Hell yeah brother keep on rockin in the free world
almost 8 minutes of pure ecstasy with these drums. you're absolutely amazing.
🙏🙏🙏 Means a lot, man!
This was a crazy ass cover, makes me want to race a down a mountain in a beater car.
Thanks dude - I actually *have* raced down a mountain in a beater car, but not for the thrill of it, but because I've only ever driven a beater car and sometimes you have to get from a sleepover wedding gig out in the boonies to a city gig the next day for a different band after sleeping in hella late 🤣
Also, I did another take I thought was slightly better and more creative (although it had a couple mistakes in it), that I uploaded at the same time, then accidentally deleted it. But I just found it in my Google drive. Think I should post it or nah (i.e. would it be too redundant)?
@@karlfagerstrom yoo haha maybe you should post it jk lmao, but beater cars are sometimes all we got.
@@haivencrowe4173 Hi punpun
disgusting how good this is, dude i love it
Thanks Luke 👊
When talent is through the roof
😘
Nothing makes a new genre/creators more welcoming than when the most community recommended cover is from a guy who even after all these years comes back to like almost all 416 comments
Maybe that speaks more to me not having a life and needing to touch grass hahaha...but thank you, I *do* care.
Bro, when I got way into breakcore, I never knew it was remotely possible to play the breakcore drums like that in that speed. Most are mainly sped up amen break loops but when I saw your video, you blew my mind. This gave me the passion to learn to play the drums again since I quit playing it a year ago. Thank you for making this masterpiece dude. You seriously rock !!! ~ peepkin.
That's awesome to hear! Yeah breakcore is basically all Amen Break. I don't mind that it's all programmed, or "cheating," some might say - but I *do* mind that *everybody* samples the Same. Exact. Song. Every. Time. In terms of creativity/originality it bums me out (granted, it's an awesome sample, obviously, but it's soooooooo tired and over-used at the same time). That's why I've always loved drummers who play drum'n'bass and breakcore *for real*, up to speed, and in real time (and then I became one myself 😁)
Super stoked I inspired you to play again! If you ever want a zoom lesson just lmk
You're too cool it's almost illegal
@@karlfagerstrom i don't mind it at all, because its not like they're keeping the same pattern. breakcore rearranges the drum patterns and distorts the sounds until it becomes something new. Sampling the amen break opens up a whole world of creativity in terms of how you approach it, it's really just going for a specific texture. Listen to breakcore from the late 90s early 00s and you will hear the ways the break can be manipulated or re-sampled or even turned into a melodic element.
Feeling the exact same way. Haven’t touched my drums in a couple months or played regularly for probably a year. This video reawakened something in me
man, you would be surprised, in my opinion, the most impresive drummers are those who regularly play DnB, search for louiscolemusic drum beat tutorials
Nodles' documentary of Sewerslvt brought me here.
I feel like these broken drums and cymbals really add a distinct note to the overall sound profile. It's messy and complex, just like the artist you're covering. Outstanding work, well done!
Time to go and learn drums
Please do. The world needs drummers whether it knows it or not
this is sick holy shit
Thanks bianca...i do what I can!
YES IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS!!
Glad I finally got around to it!
Wish I had more sewerslvt
@@sewerhunk5327 she did put out that album super recently! As for me in backed up with a couple filmed but not mixed/edited covers I gotta post but would love to get back to Jvnko when those are done
absolutely horrified with how amazing this is. good work
Thank you...a lot of these Sewerslvt tracks really bring out some of my best playing
@@karlfagerstrom you can say that again. i'll miss june. however, ledgends like you can help bring back the rush of excitement i got when listening to her songs for the first time.
after a good 3 months of listening to this over and over words still cannot explain how beautiful this is
That means the world. Thank you
the fact you absolutely nailed the drums with this masterpiece of a song just gives me my daily rush of dopamine to survive this awful world. thanks to this amazing cover i can be motivated somewhat to push further on a daily basis. thank you
Gladly. If I can keep going, you can too :)
as an avid jvne fan, you most certainly did justice to how good this song is. you're really good at what you do dude. keep up the great work my guy.
Thank you!
Hey man, I’m a year late, but this is incredible! I absolutely love this song and you are a very talented percussionist. I’d love to get back to drumming someday. You’re a real inspiration.
Thanks, Spencer, that means a lot...Also who cares if you're a year late, this channel isn't nearly big enough for that to be an issue 😂But I'm glad it seems to be just big enough where it motivates people to play. As such, I really hope you *do* get back into drumming
@@karlfagerstrom😊😅
7:27 lo I'm😅
😊
With how "easy" it is to just throw together a drum midi, I love seeing physical drummers. This is sweet. Never let the art die.
*Never*
Your fills are so smooth! 😀
Thank you 🙏
what i love about this is that as a drummer this doesnt look too hard, its just so high energy and for 7 minutes i dont think id be able to keep up for long!
Bro you're legend, the whole idea of breakcore on actual drums gives me shivers❤
If there’s something I didn’t know I needed, it’s your page. Holy crap your covers are INSANE I LOVE IT!
Thank you! My cymbals are broken, I record the whole kit with only one mic, I play underground-ish music, and I'm not much to look at, so I'm always surprised anyone would bother to watch. But I'm always glad when they do and appreciate what I'm doing!
bro always made sure the snare was on the 2 and 4. mad respect
Thanks for noticing; I kinda pride myself on going fairly ham while always staying in time and keeping the backbeats locked in
keep coming back to this video, despite it being 2 years old. it's just that good. thanks, karl!
Thank you 🙏 I rarely upload so this feels like yesterday to me
i wish i could play that fast. The way you switch between the toms and the snare in fills and how easily you do those little drum rolls is admirable
Man, you're a legend, i never though someone couldplay this on drums!
Thank you! Some of this stuff is easier to play than people think, honestly.
A genuine shame more people havent seen this. Like SS's music or not, this is still great drum talent and it's a pleasure to see
Bro those cymbals have been THROUGH it
Tell me about it. Literally none of them even exist anymore hahaha
Insane how pleasing this is to listen to. Amazing job.
Thank you so much...the fact people still watches this means a lot to me
@@karlfagerstrom Any time is a good time for some sewerslvt. Much love man ❤️
I find myself coming back to this video everyday. I've always wanted to play drums, and seeing you play just gets me hyped up.
As a drum beginner, I fell in love with the way you play. Keep grinding those cymbals and you’re absolutely fantastic dude!! ❤️
your videos bring me pure joy. I love your taste in music and the way you drum is so amazing to watch
This is one of my favorite songs and I really though i'd never see a drum cover of it, certainly not one this good
You absolutely nailed it, damn good job
This is insane! The speed and coordnation needed is godly for something like this, love it!.
Playing drums is like mastering the ultimate rhythym game i mean to have that much level of control with your feet and hands while also switching up rhythyms and overrall just jamming having a fun ass time is just such a sight to see good stuff my man im gonna subscribe for sure
This is so draw dropping-ly gorgeous playing. Holy shit this is fantastic.
Original Song: Choosing a new character
Drums: Choosing a Kart
Drums + Remix: Choosing a Stage
*Coconut Mall begins playing*
I’ve been wooed and amazed by your machine like drumming, if only I could absorb half the skill you got...
I *do* actually teach (Skype) lessons and have some (ghetto but helpful) instructional videos if you want em...
practice your ghost notes, sixteenths and articulation on the kick drum, and you'll be there
Agreed
I found sewerslvt on soundcloud randomly like 3-4 years ago, I don’t even casually listen to Sewerslvt. but when I saw “Mr. Kill Yourself” and “drum cover” I actually gasped out lout
I kinda wanna do one for Goodbye but see if my subs will throw me some money so I can invest the massive amount of time it'll take, purely from a computer perspective. But you should check out all my other sewerslvt covers, I did a *bunch*
i love sewer and i love you cool ass cover man!! you make me wanna get drums
Do it! They're hella fun
@@karlfagerstrom i'll consider it in the future fo sure
0:56 intro is awesome
Gotta flex the cross-stick when the song calls for it. Thank you!
Godamnnn this slaps so hard, really really really well done, it has so much more emotion in it than the original track, I can hear the passion, so good
Thank you, Keyturk 🙏 I've been accused of playing with a lot of passion on more than one occasion hahaha
Dude...
You are Insane, I think I didn't blink throughout the entire video because of how speechless you left me...
Thanks dude. I may film with a potato in a super messy room on a broken ass kit, and I'm also not much to look at for most people; BUT, I think I can at least play the drums well enough to get some views. And I'm glad you checked it out.
I just randomly decided to search drumming to breakcore and you did not disappoint especially to sewerslvt. Actually goated with the sauce.
I just do what I can and I put all my skill points in playing drums in a weirdo style
after years of playing music i’ve recently started drumming and fell in love with it. this looks incredibly fun to play and you absolutely killed it.
OMG WHAT A LEGEND??? THAT WAS ABSOLUTELY SICKKKKKKK your drumming skills are amazing dayuuummmm !
just found this. loved sewerslvts stuff for years, always wanted to see someone play the drums from this exact song!! ur rythm is off the charts!!!
Thank you! I have a *ton* more of Sewerslvt covers
oh how i've craved this perfection
Gonna get back to more sewerslvt as soon as I finish editing the vids on my comp (running around out of disc space)
@@karlfagerstrom lol can't wait
Absolutely killing it like always dude! Love your covers, keep on doing what you’re doing.
Thanks, will do!
Hot damn, this is a prodigal performance
Thank you 🙏 tell your breakcore-loving friends
dude u are absolutely inspiring me 2 go out and get a drum kit!! I’m already a (mediocre) pianist but I’ve kind of always wanted 2 play drums and I think doing a cover like this would be a blast
Hell yeah, I'm glad to hopefully inspire you to play! I play piano too (as well as trumpet, guitar, bass, whatever I can get my hands on), and I can tell you empirically that drums are the best for your body, mind, and soul.
@@karlfagerstrom cool!!!
holy shit this is amazing
Thanks d00der...check out the alternate take if you're interested, I think it's actually better
gonna be repeating this shi on loop until the day i die i swear
This is insane bro, fuckin AMAZING display of technique, didn't expect a performance so clean.
Eu tocava bateria quando muito novo, parei a muitos anos atrás. Mas me apaixono toda vez que encontro um Drum cover de alguma Track que gosto de ouvir. Botou pra quebrar mano, You rock
Muito obrigado, cara. Isso significa muito, já que este é um canal bem pequeno e estou apenas fazendo isso para tentar me expressar (também, desculpe pelo terrível português, estou usando o Google Translate).
Continua irmão!
this is so sick ahhh i wish there was more content around breakbeat, breakcore, jungle, dnb drumming
There's a ton of it! There's way more popular drummers than I am out there that do it well! Or if you wanna check out the godfather of live DnB drumming, check out Jojo Mayer.
Awesome possum. The original video's got 1 million views now. It's crazy how good it really was~.
*Still is...but agreed!
dude this is incredible. I can’t believe how amazing this sounds
Thank you 🙏 I was definitely feeling myself on this track
You made me really happy man, I needed that thank you
You're most welcome 🙏
I wish I could explain how I feel when I find music like this :) and people that can make it
i absolutely love this, ive always been interested in drums, but when my love for breakcore began, i started to really appreciate drums in songs, now i really want to learn to play drums but damn they are expensive
They don't have to be. I'm presently on tour with a kit I got used for $45, and sound techs / crowds still love the way it sounds (it's the same one I use on my Newlove cover). I got all my (already-broken) cymbals for free, and a couple unbroken ones I got by filling in for other bands and them buying me the cymbals as a thank you. I don't skimp on the snare, though - I think I'm playing a snare I bought for $300-400 right now, and my ex got me my double pedal for like $500 new several years ago. But there are definitely ways to cut corners financially. You better believe I do that *hard*, hahaha
True though, drums *are* expensive if you go the normal route. Which sucks - it's history's first instrument, and they should be cheap on principle.
So sick.
the enjoyment is noticeable in your playing, dirty as fvck, respect for doing drumm x breakcore like it
i love your kit so much its such a vibe. state of it reminds me of the mental state people have that listen to this music (all of us)
Dude, I’m teaching myself all off her songs on the piano and it’s always got me thinking into how the drums can actually be played to her music, a collab would be insane
wow, your an amazing drummer.
🤘🤘🤘 Tysm
Almost the entire song sounds like a drum solo and it's amazing
Thank you 🙏 it felt like the song needed it haha
@@karlfagerstrom 2 years later and you're still answering comments, that's some dedication
@black gamer201 I'm lucky anyone gives a small f**k about my little vids, answering comments is the least I could do
this video is my whole aesthetic, you rock dude
I am mad about it. Ur playing is extraordinarily awesome! Frankly, I use it as my background music nearly everyday to exhilarate myself.
Absolutely fantastic
Thank you for the kind words 😌
You're very talented! Love your cover
fucking cleaaaaaan drumss my brotherr...... You had on the edge of my seat the entire song
Keep it up my dude your are a monsterr on the kit!!!!.
This by far the most dope sht I've ever seen in TH-cam, and trust me I've watched a lot of clips since 2006!!!
Gonna play this when I workout ty messiah!
Thank you! You're reminding me how long it's been since I worked out hahaha 😬
I thought no one can play drums in breakcore...... but you did it wtf
amazing
Thank you....I swear it's easier than it looks
Exactly how drum and bass was made in 90's 🤗👍 Superb 👌
90s Drum'n'bass is the best drum'n'bass
The most kingly video I've seen on TH-cam in a minute
amazing solos man I'm adding this to my personal playlist
I know this video is 3 years old but holy hell, you are absolutely cracked at drumming (no pun on the cymbals)
I'm new to drumming and this blew my mind, amazing work!
Listen man.
That is,
IMPRESSIVE 😮
Thank you
Thank *you* for checking it out!
@@karlfagerstrom on a scale of 1 to 10, how hard to play would your rate breakcore’s busy beats ?
Like 1-10, it totally depends on the song and how over-the-top the producer went. Some of it's actually pretty easy, some of it is more just the producer's approach being "one looped sample, and I'm going to go *crazy* on the drum chops"
I could literally watch this for hours
Thank you!
This is the nuttiest shtuff I've ever seen. So dope, I want to play drums with this style.
Thanks dude...I have *ton* more of this type of stuff on this channel
this cover put a dumb smile on my stupid face, you killed this!
Thank you!
Im a bass player, but now after looking at more of your content, i want to start playing drums
*Hell* yes. I play drums, trumpet, guitar, bass, and piano (and I'm not trying to brag; I'm obviously not amazing at all of these whatsoever), and I think drums are objectively the most fun.
Tasty af, you got some clean chops I love it. I also love the constant snare ghost notes. Good stuff, keep on keeping on man.
Thanks, will do! Or try to at least, life gets in the way of uploads.
i absolutely love the sound those cymbals make
Dude. I looked to your channel after discovering this video and you literally drum to all my favourite music. Insta sub. You are cracked sir keep going brother!
Dudeee! i listen breakcore of all my day and i am really a fanatic to drum, and i'd say that is so good to listen!
Thank you! My channel's like 75% breakcore drum covers so there's tons of them here
the destroyed cymbals are symbolic of the song
Agreed
dude this is fucking awesome great work dude seriously impressed me
Thanks man, there was a slightly better take that I accidentally deleted off both TH-cam and my HD that I wish I could get back :/ it was a tiny bit shreddier and more musical, but I guess I'll just have to make more vids or something
...jk I justfound that other take in my Google drive and may or may not re-post it depending
After years still watching,
You made awesome drum cover, very enjoyed, thank you)
music brings people together
"everyone is connected" hah)
Thank you for checking it out years after the fact!
Edit: absolutely true about music bringing people together. Sometimes it's tough spending all your time on it when you know you could do more financially lucrative (but soul-sucking things) with it...but that connection with other people is priceless.
Love the cymbals, such absolute carnage!!!!
Love how this sounds, was wondering if maybe you could cover Yandere Complex too? (if you want to ofc)
Keep up the great work 👌
On it
(Sorry I only did it with a ghetto laptop camera though)
@@karlfagerstrom Nah it's good, amazing cover anyways :)
