This reminds me of me being a kid in a metal band in the 90s and coming up with new ways to cheat through double kicks and blast beats (Mostly because it was difficult to find really competent extreme metal drummers) Here's a few you might wanna try: 1) Sandwich snare: Gravity blast but made easier and louder: you basically put a second snare upside down to sandwitch your stick in between the two so the uptrokes actually hit a second snare and they're very loud without having that much of a good technique, audio set up or triggers all which are well, expensive and hard to accomplish. 2) Bycicle kicks: You basically mount a stationary bike in the kit but in the spokes of the pedals you put drum beaters so as you pedal it just blast through the kick drum with each beater around and around
This is actually a great idea, specifically regarding altering the drumset configuration. I believe more drummers will experiment like this in the future.
so we went full circle on the history of the drums and came back to upright drumming again just sitting and playing way louder than our predecessors, this is hilarious
Going through it lately, so thank you for providing a much needed laugh today. Appreciate the stuff that you make. On a side note, everybody check out Maureen "Moe" Tucker from the Velvet Underground, she played primarily standing with the bass drum upright etc, this video made me think of her.
The whole cheat code thing was dumb until you whipped out the giant multiple percussion set up at the end. I was then legitimately impressed. Big dumb to galaxy brain. 🧠
I love the way that you think outside of the box Eric. WAY outside of the box. What an interesting set up, you never fail to bring the interesting and creative. Great video Eric. Hold up, wait a minute, put some MORE cowbell in it. 🙂
Looks like it LITERALLY could be LEGIT thing from the LEGENDARY "Sound of Noise" movie and hilariously sick Six Drummers (with other their short films) ! Woohoo! (What?.. You didn't heard abour them? Just go and check already! They are highly important for all drummers and music lovers. I love them over 10-15 yeras)
14:11 You forgot cowbell!! Poor thing! Lol. Speaking of cowbell, though, I have been wondering about that painting of a cowbell and the bars of music above it for a long time now. What is the music?
I'm just getting tired, watching you do that last kit! ...Heck, this video just makes me that much more amazed at how any metal drummers can do this kind of stuff on a normal kit at all...this from a string bass player. Who am I kidding? I'm not even in this kind of league with my so-called "drumming."
Instead of the gigantic huge drumset, you could probably just use an electronic drum and re-arrange the sounds fot each song. I'm pretty sure you could also trigger multiple sounds off of the same MIDI input
That’s because if something is considered difficult it’s because people of the matter find it hard to play and whether something is good or not is not objective but only subjective and a thing of taste. I can say that I like the song. But I also think there are a lot of songs that are trickier to play
@@Toolnerd0410 OH, I know. You're right. There are plenty of people who like the song, and I know that just about any song ever written, repeats itself somewhere in the song. More than once even, but Bleed is SOOOOOOO OOOO repetative. It almost sounds like they took like 15 seconds worth of music and just looped it over and over. I just think it's a boring song. I've been playing guitar for a long time, and the song is within my ability, but I understand it's not the easiest song for most people. For some it's probably impossible at their current experience level. Like you said, this is all my opinion, and I happen to think the song is not good. 🤘
I never knew of that rimshot trick. I'll have to try this next time I practice. I'm willing to try anything besides electronic drums / cheater kit 😂 I'd rather make mistakes than act fake🤘😎
@@georgeprice4212 I shattered both heels & most my bones in my feet but i still try. I guess to each their own. That rim tap didn't work for me. I gave up after 2 min went back to beaten off😂 I still want learn your tricks to see if any work for me🙌
@@georgeprice4212 I've hated electric drums since Metallica one came out💔I thought that was great song til I was told he cheated with electric drums😔 I've told my buddy it's like driving a moped instead of a Harley Davidson 😂 I'm not special anyway. I'm trying to pick up where I left off bout 30yrs ago when I got out school my mom had got rid my pearl set so I gave up till few months ago. Nerve damage makes it frustrating but I don't want to cheat to sound good😔
Is this idea big brained, or big dumb?
Big dumb-brained idea! 🤪🧠
listen to goalie 29
It really depends, I think it would be weird if you walked into a concert to see the bass drum as the first Tom, and a snare as the second Tom.
It's the best of both worlds.
Big brained absolutely 😎👌
hahahaha! this is fuckin' great dude
genius
im a death metal drummer and i approve of this shenaniganry

That bicycle kick is genius, I would love to see it!
What the heck, this is actually amazing. Well done, Eric. You are shining brighter than the sun that's currently beaming through my window.
Good morning! This is video number 43 of me asking Eric to make a set of tenors out of differently sized or tuned snare drums.
He said he would after he gets enough money
why does everyone assume every TH-camr makes a shit ton of money
@@Bike_Chain facts
Yea, dude, he mentioned you in the last video. Go support him on patreon or something if you want to see this video.
@@JerridFoiles yeah Fr people think TH-camrs are rich or something. Percussion instruments aren’t cheap
This is actually a great idea, specifically regarding altering the drumset configuration. I believe more drummers will experiment like this in the future.
Me explaining to my band teacher why I still csnt read xylophone notes: 0:32
Some drummer is going to unironically switch to that last kit setup, and I am here for it. Sounds metal af
It does not sound that metal dude
so we went full circle on the history of the drums and came back to upright drumming again just sitting and playing way louder than our predecessors, this is hilarious
The combined setup reminds me of how Thomas Lang usually sets up his drum set. Many pedals and stuff, while still being able to orchestra all of them.
Now we need to see Eric play "Through the Fire and Flames"
“I forgot to play the cowbell” got me 😂
Going through it lately, so thank you for providing a much needed laugh today. Appreciate the stuff that you make.

Would gladly have 07:00 on repeat. Soothing! Like a white noise generator
The whole cheat code thing was dumb until you whipped out the giant multiple percussion set up at the end. I was then legitimately impressed. Big dumb to galaxy brain. 🧠
As a metal drummer, I am furious.
That I didn't come up with any of this.
I love the way that you think outside of the box Eric. WAY outside of the box. What an interesting set up, you never fail to bring the interesting and creative. Great video Eric. Hold up, wait a minute, put some MORE cowbell in it. 🙂
Very big brain moment😎👌
I’m lovin how you think outside the box
I think Mike mangini was still shocked and fascinated by the drum kit on your last set.😂🔥 12:00
Looks like it LITERALLY could be LEGIT thing from the LEGENDARY "Sound of Noise" movie and hilariously sick Six Drummers (with other their short films) !

Dude. You are in fact a genius.
What if you use the snare rim trick on gravity blast and double time it
This video is missing lil peanut. I feel like the mega drum set is his dream setup and I need to see him play it.
11:56 Lil Peanuts Dream Kit
11:00 absolutely insane ability
Thank you for improving my life
Your neighbors must love you
Imagine the neighbors
"yeah, we can totally use my kit as the backline, no biggie"
Terry Bozzio wept 🤣
As a metal drummer I can confirm this is accurate.
Poor cowbell got left out! :O
This is very big brain
Thats just brilliant.
Had no idea that was you haha cool stuff!
❤️❤️ Damn! I love me some drummers! Married one, in fact! ❤️❤️
If no one has already, we need to send this to Samus
It strikes me that this would be a lot easier with Vdrums

Can you please transcribe the drumset scene of uncle Jessie in full house?
Video 23 of asking EMC to make a video of him playing the Rock Band game series
Xylophone from different triangles
😂😂Big Brained Crazy Accomplishments😂😂

As I say as I drink my Guinness ==> BRILLIANT!!
Gargantuan brain moment.

I’m gonna set my drum set up this way since my foot technique isn’t great
That was very intense looking. Maybe just maybe it could work.
can you imagine being his neighbour when he is doing this
Nice 💪

Leads me to the question: Do blast beats have a musical application?
were you wearing ear protection, because it didn't look like you were.
Good
Oh that’s why they don’t do it that way…
Nice
Good for you, not practicing blast beats for those two years. That's two more years of coordination, syncopation, and actual progress!
Early crew

No crew?
Back again. I have a question…. Did you borrow additional drums/cymbals from some of your friends? Some of those drumheads look pretty bad. 🤔
Arron Paulson?
Let me come up with something real quick:
*Plays One by Metallica*

Good morning, day 2 of asking EMC to make a tenor set out of flub drums.
Who’s gonna tell him
whats the cheat code to getting drums
Marry a drummer
money
Have them already, make content with them, get a sponsor

I don’t think Electronic drums are fake: they helped Def Leppard’s Rick Allen figure out how to continue playing drums after losing his arm.

2 seconds too slow
Nah. You're second. Maybe next time!
Awesome idea!! I wouldn't be surprised if you are neurodiverse
