What Ken said about improvising drum parts, not gonna lie as I was improving my own style, Ken’s creativity as had a huge impact on my own playing. I’m not able to play super fast like he does but some of his stuff I’ve been like “cool, let me try!”. Even though I do like the drummers from many bands, Ken's unique ability rubbed off on my playing lol
Also, since it's only my second interview, I'm open to feedback from you, guys
You upload great interviews, I love the timestamps!
Shannon's interview was soooo good to watch. And now this with Ken. Honestly you're doing great dude! Can't wait till the next!
Thank you very much! Appreciate you taking the time to watch them both!
Loved this interview- so nice to hear Ken trying to make it as a drummer, how the Aborted journey has been so far.
Ken is such a chill and great dude. Monstrous and groovy player, amazing songwriter! Always a pleasure to hear from him 🤘
Huge inspiration to drumming, awesome to see this and how chill Ken is. Met him once while he was touring up in Canada in Toronto and he was super nice and chill to talk to after their show. Def my absolute fav drummer and can't wait to hear more music Ken and Aborted put out! Cheers.
Dude, I just watched this and went, "Hell yeah!".
This isnt even an interview, this is just two dudes chillin' and shootin' the shit.
10/10
Thanks for watching! Glad you enjoyed it 🧡
Hi Илья. Thanks so much for such an attractive interview. I was so pleased to watch Ken so live. He's sure the one of the most talented world's drummers as well as just a smart guy and a good fellow on my opinion. Good luck to u both. Ну, а если ты ещё и говоришь по-русски, то ваще крутяк! Привет с противоположной стороны Шарика! 🤝
Благодарю за просмотр, я очень рад, что вам понравилось интервью!
Ken is a legend in the metal scene
That story about the worst gig ever stressed me out just listening XD, sick sick sick interview!!
Illia thank you so much for doing this! Amazing Interview, Ken is the man and so are you!
Thanks for checking it out, appreciate your kind words🧡🧡🧡
Ken is my favorite drummer and inspiration next to Kevin Paradis.
I got to meet him last year on Chaos and Carnage tour in Houston. Awesome dude!
Ken if you end up reading these, thanks for the the signed set list from you Sven and Ian. Can't wait until the NEW album.
Спасибо за интервью с Кеном! Один из любимых барабанщиков, огромное удовольствие смотреть на на его расслабленную игру и интересные брейки.
Awesome interview, Shannon's too.
I was at one of the shows for Obscura when they played for something like 15 people. That sucked for them, but oh fuck, that was the most personal performance I've ever seen. They still did individual solos and a the whole set, which I will NEVER forget!
Man, thanks for sharing this.
I had no idea Ken wrote so much of Aborted’s repertoire. So good! Thanks for the great interview!
Such a good and warm interview! Hope to hear some of nerd questions (what equipment, what settings of pedals, skin tension, etc and why he does exact way) next time 😁. Great job man, thanks!
Great interview ! I love Ken ! ❤
Thanks for this interview!
Killer Interview, thank you!!! 🔥🔥
Great interview ! Keep up doing this content !
Thank you!
Thanks for this!
🙏
My pleasure!
I'm really curious what his settings were on the Czarcie Kopyto and axis pedals
Axis maximum spring tension vdl forward 35 beater angle
Great band great dude :)
Maniacult and terrorvision are actually my two favorite aborted records so far XD
Awesome interview
So Ken wrote all of Maniacult and Terrorvision ? What a god :D
Dude is insane talent
Met him back in 2014 along with Sven and both were chill as fuck.
Yo! Hell yeah!
He wrote both the latest albums? Wow. Dude is sick af
This is awesome. Can you get James Payne on?
Terrorvision is in my top ten. Give yourself more credit, Ken.
Terrovision is some of the best death metal ever
Very nice interview ! |,,|
Thanks, man.
THis was superinteresting. Ken Bedene is one of the best extreme metal drummers. He also seems like a very good dude who def has had a lot of doubts and stuff. Guy is very self-aware and not afraid to talk about things that has gone wrong. But seing how good he is, he could use some more self-esteem man 😂 Great guy though!
Im a drummer, what a nightmare with triiggers misfiring when you got legends you look up to also playing 😂
Nah, I don't think there's lack of self-esteem with Ken. As for doubts, who doesn't have them? Especially if you're playing in a band of that level
@@metaldrummersunited5716 He doesn't come across as the the guy with the most self-esteem, but good to know. Yes, I didn't say it was something bad. That's the point. It shows he has had struggles like everyone else :9 "Heal-toe" = playing slow sixten notes with triggers, is def cheating by the way ;) Why not just program the drums then or juust a tripple pedal. Same thing.
48:14ish is the key
Ken Bedene whats up? Ive been wondering what you been upto. Anyways say hello to Jen and Swa..
