I see one critic here states that you should be making music and not soloing. In you're defense My thoughts: First let's break it down. #1 Music is an arrangement of tonal colors incorporating acoustic frequencies, rhythmic syncopation and controlled dynamics. The subjective molding of i'ts form In each effort, is the decision of the artist as to what constitutes his statement. Once completed a piece of Music ex'sits. #2 The object of music is to create a musical form that the artist and others might enjoy. It is clear to me that you enjoyed your statement! It is also clear that I enjoyed you're "music". It was emotionally conveyed, and easy to understand. The odds of any of us"Changing the world" with our solo or music is rare. Critics are not rare. They are unfortunately in abundance. Never play their solo's. Play yours. And nicely done I might add. PS. I've played as pro for 40 years. Because I wanted to. And That! alone was enough. All the best Ed
man you're awesome thanks for sharing your talent with us, greetings from the Dominican Republic btw that solo was sick!!!!!, keep those vids coming, thanks!!!!!!
great playing man. finally someone on youtube who can actually play. well done. oh and btw, all the people complaining about the sound and mixing need realize that its how u play not what the drums sound like. good job
enjoyed this, my kinda drummer. i'm building a Roland kit of this magnitude, i'm halfway there. have a look liked your td20 impro vid as well. keep smiling!!
hey Theo, just finished building my kit now, apart from little bits and bobs. i now have td20 and td12 combined with spd30 octopad and spdsx sampler.....in my front room lol will post some footage soon...can create sooo much sound. let the beat do the talking and keep smilin !! Matt ps you on facebook?
@Bluemoon4655 Hi Bluemoon 4655, Thank you very much. So, I´m German, but I love America and the people of America. They build good drums, cars and motorcycles, that is the reason why I wear the shirt.
@deeppurple1994 Hi deeppurple1994 Erst einmal vielen Dank. Ja, ist bei mir im Proberaum. Diese Video hab ich noch mit relativ alten Mikros bzw. Mischpult aufgenommen. Bei dem Video hatte ich überhaupt keine Ahnung von Audio-Aufnahmen. Ich hab einfach irgendwelche Knöpfe gedrückt in der Hoffnung, die Mikros nehmen auf....lol Mit dem TD 20 war es noch sehr leicht. Doch mit dem Akustik Set war es schon schwieriger.Die Vid´s hat ein Bekannter für einen Freundschaftspreis gemacht.
You have nice technical skill. I hope not to come across as pompous or arrogant but to humbly suggest that for your next solo you aim for making music with drums. What you did here was not music. It was a drum solo. Drum solos suck if they don't speak to the soul. You can do it if you stop trying to impress with speed alone. I'm simply trying to offer positive input, I am not trying to come across as an Ivory Tower type of asshole. Your solo did showcase some nice creativity. Thanks 4 sharing.
Sehr geniales Solo! Die Ludwig Snare hat einen wirklich schönen Sound :) Nur eine Frage: Ist das ihr privates Studio? Scheint ein ziemlich guter Raum für Aufnahmen zu sein - dazu der Kameramann! Da kann man nur neidisch werden, wenn man es nicht schon vom Solo wird ;) Thumbs up!
Nice playing, the Black Beauty sounds fantastic. Is it hammered? The bass drums sound pretty terrible, IMO. They might be tuned well but sound bad through the mics.
@panede The sentiment conveyed in your first sentence counteracts the "sorry", so you're not really sorry, just flippant. Also, "talent" is spelled with one L, not to mention the fact that "don't" should've been "doesn't". Ps. This guy is good!
@MrDrummertheo American cars suck Ass! The German Volkswagon is the most efficient and reasonably priced we have over her,. and there are many others as well but it is nice of you to say that. Don't worry you don't have to be nice to Americans! you are a great drummer and your talent speaks for you! Rock On!!
@panede did you knew that "the fat gay guy" as you call him is a boxer with 6 consecutive ko's i'll bet he can whoop your ass in a split of a secondso try to be a little more respectful in the future!!!! pajarasoo!!!
excellent teacher, you have an awesome groove! I'm from Argentina, 20 years of drummers, congratulations!
man that kit is beautiful, a drummers dream and a soundmans nightmare all in one
There is a real joy in your playing! Great to see your love for this instrument! I love the ending and the kid smile! God bless!
Ed Genovese thank you very much

Germelyn Grace Calub thank you so much my friend 👍🏻
Thank you, yes it is a supraphonic snare.
@MrDrummertheo
I beg to differ...I think this was a really great tuning, and nice open sound ;o)
@richiethegent
At first thank you very much.
This set have maple shells...
nice hair old timer! good drum solo!
at 3:23 your mics didnt pick up that cymbal hit. very good solo :D
Yes, you're right. I´m not god in mixing. I was glad it even a ton came from the mixer.
Man new dimension to drums that was sick....
What types of DW were they? And do you use UE's or ear plugs cause it must get pretty loud.
Wicked.
Geil!
Yes, that´s true. Unfortunately I can not mix.But I'll get to the next recording, a friend who will help me.

@megadrummer2

@musicminds

@MarcAntoineVezina
Yes, that's right...smile
nice!!, are you a pro drummer

Are you Matt Greiner's dad??? I love it!
Sehr geniales Solo!
Die Ludwig Snare hat einen wirklich schönen Sound :)
Nur eine Frage: Ist das ihr privates Studio? Scheint ein ziemlich guter Raum für Aufnahmen zu sein - dazu der Kameramann! Da kann man nur neidisch werden, wenn man es nicht schon vom Solo wird ;)
Thumbs up!
Mit Remo Pinstripes klingt sogar ein DW annehmbar! ;-)
smile...I have a Roland TD 20 Kid of this magnitude....
You are sexy and you play realy well 😉 👄 🇫🇷
Nice playing, the Black Beauty sounds fantastic. Is it hammered?
The bass drums sound pretty terrible, IMO. They might be tuned well but sound bad through the mics.
@uhstud68
Thank you very much.
@MCguit88
Thanx......
great drumming dude, but i have one question are american or german, i only ask cause you have a USA shirt on?
@deeppurple1994
......die neueren Videos hab ich allerdings alles selber gemacht...
Damn you make it look too easy. 35 Years Im a drummer and Im not a 10/th AS GOOD AS YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
SCOTT thank you so much 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
@panede The sentiment conveyed in your first sentence counteracts the "sorry", so you're not really sorry, just flippant. Also, "talent" is spelled with one L, not to mention the fact that "don't" should've been "doesn't". Ps. This guy is good!
Cool, 5*
what mics do you use?
i only watch this video to hear how the generation x filter chinas sound but you didn't use one of the three
@MrDrummertheo American cars suck Ass! The German Volkswagon is the most efficient and reasonably priced we have over her,. and there are many others as well but it is nice of you to say that. Don't worry you don't have to be nice to Americans! you are a great drummer and your talent speaks for you! Rock On!!
A GUEVO
SE LA MAMO CHE VIEJITO
HAHAHA
XD
@panede why dont you put a video up of yourself and we can comment on your talent (and physique)???
WOW!!
Is THIS the drum set that costs over 10,000$???
it must of cost a fortune to mic that drum set
don't really like the sound of the bass or hi-hat, but really nice solo!
@MrDrummertheo They build good drums, cars and motorcycles? Not anymore dude... Maybe drums-and only if they're Ludwigs.
ROIDS
@panede did you knew that "the fat gay guy" as you call him is a boxer with 6 consecutive ko's i'll bet he can whoop your ass in a split of a secondso try to be a little more respectful in the future!!!! pajarasoo!!!
nice drumming but the worst sounding DW i have ever heard
