When you see Brazilians flooding every social media platform related to Slipknot, this is the reason. Eloy loves Brazilian culture and incorporates very regional rhythms into his solos. He is not one of those annoying metalheads. It’s not just because he is Brazilian that we love him.
@@dehstorck mano eu acho que vc n entendeu o que ele falou, bota no tradutor que vc vai entender kk pela maneira que ele falou, ele é brasileiro e ta explicando pros gringos..
@@akekw62 Eu vi agora que mandei a resposta para a pessoa errada... Valeu pelo comentario... Eu entendo perfeitamente o Ingles... Obrigado vou corrigir aqui e mandar para pessoa chorona gringa.. rsrs
I never would have thought in a million years that we’d see Eloy himself recreate the drum solo I’ve watched countless time as an up and coming drummer. Wild!
As a native of Pernambuco State, there are no words to demonstrate how proud I am of Eloy as a representative of my home state. Always promoting state and national culture to the world! 👏🏽👏🏽
I think there's more than that: every country in the world "produces" people with musical talent. Now, why some countries have the greatest number of famous musicians? I think there's nothing to do with musical talent, but with (1) conditions of life, and (2) the insertion of the country in the "musical system". This "musical system" is the structure formed by, among other things, a imposition of musical taste (nearly all the popular music in the world has american influences) that by it's turn is influenced by economic dominance. So, a country that has certain conditions of life in which music is important, and whose music coadunates well with the dominant taste (the american taste), has good chances of produce musicians recognized abroad.
@@R.C.F.2096 I think he was probably refering more to the fact that a large part of the brasilian culture is heavelly based on percursion, all the different parts he played, each one comes from a different state in Brasil and has its own history. Eloi's sole is a invitation for people to come and learn more about all that makes brasilian music what it is.
As a 14 year old that was amazing but then you see the maturity as now a man with more experience and wisdom and the difference is massive. Knowledge and wisdom infused with the passion you can only get with experience of life. Amazing stuff. And a great example for all the younger drummers out there.
100% it's really fascinating how in refining he's also simplified his options down. The absolute thunder he brings in the couple of bars of metal to close out the solo, phwoargh!
In a single video, Drumeo and Eloy just show us how rich is our music culture and why the brazilian percussionists are the best in the world. Thnx a lot!
When he smiles and acknowledges that he plays the call and response part differently during the full solo, that shows a side of him that proves he has no ego. Much respect.
What’s amazing is when he says “ I can’t play that anymore, it’s impossible for me. “ it really shows his humility. This guy is simply one of the must gifted drummers to ever play! Way to go Eloy!
Wait the fck a minute……………I vividly remember this performance and had no idea this was him. Holy sh*t. I remember thinking “this kid is going to be a great drummer one day. “. Wow awesome. I don’t remember the introduction of his name is why but I for sure remember the performance. I saw this on some drummer world website or something back in maybe 2005.
Same!! I was obsessed with this video when I was a around 11years old and now almost 20 years later on a binge watch of eloys videos just realized he is that kid lol
I set up a left foot "wood block" that I made myself the next week. I was his same age, had long hair and probably listened to the same metal bands. Man...this video brings me back!!!
Samba is the thing that made me fell in love with rhythm and groove. When it's world cup season, you know that samba is coming to your TV here in Malaysia. It's great to have Eloy being the drummer of our time
What I have always loved about Eloy is that he has the power and raw chops for metal (see his work in Sepultura and now Slipknot), but he shows he would also be able to walk into a jazz club and sit in for a gig as well as any Latin performance. His is one of the best modern complete drummers.
Eloy and Derrick Green injected strength to endure in Sepultura: Eloy was able to play Igor's drum parts and add some of his own touch and Derrick, unlike Max, can actually sing but also do those guttural vocals. It's a musical nuance that was riveting on Sepultura.
@@redacted2275 I was one of those that lost interest when the brothers left Sepultura, Loved Max's rawness. and Igor was one of my top Drummers... then a few years ago, I stumbled over Eloy.......And I had a new drummer on my top tier list, though i was old school sepultura I was just blown away, even years of prejudice couldn't withstand it, and was washed away in few minutes
@redacted2275 finally someone who shares my unpopular opinion. Cavalera bros era Sepultura is rightfully classic, but Derrick and Eloy can do everything they did better.
Living legend. He's the hole package. Humble, powerful, humble, technical, humble, fast, humble again. He deserves everything that has happened to him. From now on, I'm a big fan of him.
Wow, man… When I was 11, I use to be addicted to this solo! Now, 20 years later, I still love it, and I’m very surprise to see him playing it again and explaining what was going on! never ever imagined on my best dreams, one day Eloy would revised it! AMAZING
Eloy has that magic that all the greats have had, he is fast and accurate but also groovy in a way that non musicians can hear and be like "holy shit this guy is good", but then musicians can hear him and be like "HOLY SHIT THIS GUY IS REALLY GOOD!"
Just 10 seconds within his replay of this solo you can immediately tell how much his musicality improved. He had already mastered technique at 14 years old, but that was just the foundation to craft real musicianship (if that word even exists).
Man... When he said that he thinks people should be able to dance to your solos, he really meant it! There was quite a few times that he really looked like he was getting into it! And sure, some of it is just how the body looks when making those patterns... But he had some extra to it! Was amazing to see!
That's what experience does to a musician. The new version is so much clearer! All the grooves come through, everything. Like wine, Eloy, you just get better with time.
It's kinda emotional to see him playing it again nowadays. I still recall the moment that video took the brazilian drum world by storm. Look where it got him. It's amazing. Godspeed!
There are drummers that are fast. Drummers that hit hard with energy Drummers that have good groove Drummers thst have perfect tempo. Drunmers that are unique and creative. Drummers that can play odd signatures and polyrythms. Eloy is one of if not the only that seems to be S-tier in ALL these aspects.
i'm yet to see this man absolutely changing the world of drums as we know it, the way he brings brazillian rhythms into metal like no one has ever done is about to inovate a lot of stuff. good luck to this man, he's my biggest inspiration
Hi Eloy. The truth about your training for your Modern Drummer Festival 2005 performance is that you were trained by Gustavo Meli and after that you won that MD festival Edition. It's really worth mentioning. Watch the Vera Figueiredo, Eloy and Gustavo Meli live video for further details.
Aquiles was one of my favourite drummers back in the days when the internet and TH-cam came out. Now it's clear to me, and i understand why Eloy is a beast
I don't think i ever smiled so much watching a drummer play. When playing the solo recreation, he's just dancing on his throne while playing. It looks and sounds so fun because of it. I'm gonna go practice now.
Eloy is so humble... after crushing and delivering so much technique he says: thanks for watching! whaaaaattt??? Thank you for being such a piece of art and sharing with us your skills and musicianship. Watching you makes me very proud of being brazilian!!!!
Wow, thats just incredible. See a professional like Eloy think about himself so long ago, and to try and come up with an updated version of himself... wow... Thank you Drumeo!
Massive Drumming!! Eloy totally deserves everything that he’s having nowadays. Studied a lot, always plays with the heart, and always so humble. Cheers to this amazing human being!
The way he was describing each breakdown of the piece made it sound so simple. And he was saying he couldnt play some parts, cmon now, of course he can, so humble, but the changes were so much clearer and groovier, he knew when to let it breathe through the feel rather than the technicality and those moments added a refreshing taste and flare and playfulness. Then he just melts your face with that metal groove at the end masterfully done. Eloy is a fantastic drummer indeed.
@@capsulamental I did keep playing, and expanded my horizons! I’ve been singing and writing songs for 20 years now! My drumming roots impact everything I do!
Drumming its a personal style and expresion, more than skills. In that contest, someone more jazz-oriented like Bill Strewart could have played, not everything is about chops at the speed of light.
@@dr.strange.2655 you’re absolutely right. Let me clarify what I mean by “relieved I didn’t enter.” In the mind of a hot shot 16 year old (me) who thought they’re pretty good at their instrument, seeing Eloy play really showed me that there are levels. He displayed incredible technique, power, advanced independence, and proved he had a deep understanding of Latin drumming. All at 14!! Overall just an incredible performance and a great lesson for me to go practice!
Simplesmente o vídeo mais emocionante que já assisti de um solo. É a história recontada a partir dos anos; uma revisita após experiências e mudanças na vida de alguém. Enfim, emocionado. Parabéns, Eloy.
He is a real artist, humble and trying to help people develop their talents... an awesome human being and incredibly talented... All my respect... I love this guy
Jim Root said hilmsef, that got inspired by Eloy and is going to grab his guitar more oftern to reach Eloy's level. Can you imagine that... World Class musicians.
I could write this comment in English, but I won't do that. Em PT-BR. Cara, para nós brasileiros e amantes da bateria vou deixar esse comentário como forma de agradecimento ao Eloy. Eloy, praticamente eu cresci vendo você tocar, acompanhei todos os seus trabalhos e hoje cara, 14 anos depois, é impressionate ver onde a sua dedicação te levou. Todas as bandas que você passou eu acompanhei, o antes e o depois, é impressionante a qualidade que você leva para a banda, não só a qualidade você estimula os caras a chegar no seu nível, você sobe a régua como diríamos aqui no Brasil. Ver você no Slipknot é sensacional, ver você no canal da Drumeo é mais ainda, eu claramente não conheço o teu dia-a-dia, mas todas as pessoas que tem esse prazer falam que a sua humildade é uma coisa ímpar, e ver um Brasileiro chegar longe, em lugares de destaque com humildade, trabalho e esforço é motivo de orgulho para nós. Fico muito feliz por você, por nós brasileiros, muito obrigado pelo que tem feito ao mundo da bateria, vida longa!
Voltei uns 16 anos no tempo, quando vi esse solo pela primeira vez. Emocionante demais! Não há elogios suficientes para o Eloy... orgulho, muito orgulho de ver onde ele chegou. Merece o mundo!
When he says he cannot play that part anymore I can only think that's because there's not enough time in the day to practice it with all the other parts he practices everyday. You can only get that good with time invested. So much respect.
He broke his right leg 2 years ago and went through surgery where he putted a metal plaque from his knee to his shin 🥲i believe this is the reason why he says it's "impossible" for him to play this pattern nowdays.
This is actually the first time in something like 25+ years I'm hearing the name Horacio El Negro again. I saw him play at a drummers conversation but don't recall where in Germany exactly it was. That son clave stuck with me till today. Thanks for bringing up the memory 😊
Eloy Casagrande to win the Modern Drummer was prepared by Argentine drummer (2001 Modern Drummer champion) Gustavo Meli. Very sad that he has forgotten Gustavo Meli who selflessly helped him achieve that triumph in his musical career.
I remember seeing that Modern Drummer DVD back then and being completely blown away how good the kid was. Really cool see him now and how far he's come! Awesome drummer.
It is impossible that there is a perfect drummer... Until Eloy came. Overall creativity, speed, musicality, dynamics, knowledge, culture, accuracy and his maturity. Such a wonderful time to see these kinds of drummers at this time where speed is the only thing in their minds.
The dude is the epitome of "power under control". What a legend. It makes sense he was already crushing at 14. Awesome video. Thanks Eloy!! Thanks Drumeo!
not only Eloy respect his past, we all in the #drummer comunity respect that, not all of us were able to play like that at 14 yo, so humble Eloy but it´s nothing else tha the effort everyday on his development that got him where his now, at the mayor leagues in #drumming ... cheers to Eloy Casagrande
First heard of Eloy through a Jeff Loomis shout out. I absolutely love that he's all about the musicality of percussion, and that his path took him away from the flashy flarey flexy chops and rolls and into just making the most incredible dynamic choices. He's extremely humble and honest for such a machine.
Holy FORKS, the ending had him not only playing fast but LOOKING like he was sped up. I've never seen anyone play that fast/hard without changing form. Like, when people play that fast they are always taking some kind of physical shortcut to achieve it, but this dude WASN'T. Insane.
I like Slipknot. I have never been to a show and I am a drummer and love going to shows. I loved Joey's drumming. I loved Jay's contribution. When Slipknot played that warmup show with Eloy, I couldn't buy a ticket fast enough for their upcoming tour. See you in August Eloy.
Un talento incredibile ed un'intelligenza sopraffina al servizio del lavoro sullo strumento. Grande Eloy e grazie per il tuo esempio di dedizione ed impegno
The production quality on those videos are absolutly insane. All the shots, the montage, the zoom (they know what to zoom on), the overhead shot, etc... The sound quality of the kit, of each toms, snare, bassdrum, so clear and dynamic... Everything is such on a high level. Super clean and top notch, gotta love it. Huge shoutout to the production crew, sick videos all always. Oh and Eloy is fucking sick
His solo at the Drummers United 2019 is his best performance to me. That solo is so creative and technical it could create an entire new genre on it's own.
I was a Brazilian guitarrist with 15yr in 2005 when i saw Eloy first time doing the solo and legit give me inspiration to be a better musician and pursuit my goals. Wish i have that will power now hahahahaah, kids sure do have something special about the " JUST DOOOO IIITTTT " hahahahaa
Thomas Lang has always been my favorite drummer, but I have to say....Eloy is right there with him. Love to see the progression of his career and talent. Awesome.
It's a relief to see that even an absolute monster drummer like Eloy says he can't play something anymore because he stopped practicing it. The man is human after all 😂
If only I can put 10000000... likes for this video I would do! Mainly thanks to Drumeo to kept this video till Eloy became the drummer for Slipknot! Thanks to Eloy for having agreed to such a performance. Remembering your performance, making a reaction to it, and then repeating it is worth a lot. Many years of success and collaboration with the best musicians. You are the best!
I remember vividly watching this video and thinking "this guy is the future of drumming, and were the same age, that’s awesome!". I believe I was right after all these years!
Only Eloy can play something that Eloy can't play
😂😂😂
hahahah thanks for this
Chuck Norris can play that solo.
Eloy eloy eloyloyloy loyeelloy eloeloyoy yeelo yoloe
😂😂😂😂
Eloy please come to Brazil
hahahahahhha boa
Hahahahaha tava procurando por esse comentário
Genial 😂😂😂
Não pode ser KKKKKKKKKK boa
He belongs to the US now sorry 😂
“I respect my past, I’m okay with my past.” Inspiring on many levels.
I agree.
Right!
I'm not sure why he would regret it though, I think something lost in translation there a bit. Very cool to see grooves from his culture
I wish I had a past like that to respect 😂
People obsess over the past instead of the present.. you know how people get good at music? By practicing it with dedication
“I can’t play that anymore”.
Proceeds to play it perfectly 😂
😂😂😂
its cuz he played the other part of the song
so it was a lie then 😂

Obrigado, amamos por ele mostrar a todos que coisas de outros países tambem pode ser boas para consumir :D
I saw Slipknot about a month ago in Ohio. Eloy is downright phenomenal. Easily one of the best drummers I’ve ever had the privilege to see live.

Hope we'll see Aquiles in the Drumeo studio eventually!

@@drummerdan95 Heck yes!
Yup, no wonder he's the best right now.

Foi muito massa!

That's all about race mixes. Brazil was built by immigrants, from many places. Amazing things can happen when you mix cultures
One interesting thing: We do not drink tap water in Brazil kkkk, its not good for your health kkkkk

We don't drink tap water in Brazil, because our water treatment is not 100% safe, so we have water filters at home

Oh man, I remember watching that solo like a thousand times, and that DVD was sick, with Eloy, Jason Bittner, Chad Smith, Chris Adler and more!

Cara, para nós brasileiros e amantes da bateria vou deixar esse comentário como forma de agradecimento ao Eloy.
Eloy, praticamente eu cresci vendo você tocar, acompanhei todos os seus trabalhos e hoje cara, 14 anos depois, é impressionate ver onde a sua dedicação te levou.
Todas as bandas que você passou eu acompanhei, o antes e o depois, é impressionante a qualidade que você leva para a banda, não só a qualidade você estimula os caras a chegar no seu nível, você sobe a régua como diríamos aqui no Brasil.
Ver você no Slipknot é sensacional, ver você no canal da Drumeo é mais ainda, eu claramente não conheço o teu dia-a-dia, mas todas as pessoas que tem esse prazer falam que a sua humildade é uma coisa ímpar, e ver um Brasileiro chegar longe, em lugares de destaque com humildade, trabalho e esforço é motivo de orgulho para nós.
Fico muito feliz por você, por nós brasileiros, muito obrigado pelo que tem feito ao mundo da bateria, vida longa!
Voltei uns 16 anos no tempo, quando vi esse solo pela primeira vez. Emocionante demais!
Não há elogios suficientes para o Eloy... orgulho, muito orgulho de ver onde ele chegou. Merece o mundo!
GOAT Gustavo Meli, who trained/coached Eloy, being VERY Grateful with Brazil and it's welcoming Drumming community
When he says he cannot play that part anymore I can only think that's because there's not enough time in the day to practice it with all the other parts he practices everyday. You can only get that good with time invested.
So much respect.
I wondered that myself. How can 14 year old Eloy play something 33 year old Eloy cannot?
He broke his right leg 2 years ago and went through surgery where he putted a metal plaque from his knee to his shin 🥲i believe this is the reason why he says it's "impossible" for him to play this pattern nowdays.
@@marigonzalles I'm fairly certain that if he put his mind and energy into it, he could relearn it. It's not like his right leg is not functioning.
I wasn’t expecting to get more Eloy’s video here for now, what a great surprise! This video is one of my favorites!
At 10:05 I really like his opinion about this part, and the way he thinks, more drummer/musiciens should have this vision for a solo.
The groove definitely inhabits this guy. Que grande Eloy!!!!
This is actually the first time in something like 25+ years I'm hearing the name Horacio El Negro again. I saw him play at a drummers conversation but don't recall where in Germany exactly it was. That son clave stuck with me till today. Thanks for bringing up the memory 😊
Eloy Casagrande to win the Modern Drummer was prepared by Argentine drummer (2001 Modern Drummer champion) Gustavo Meli.
Very sad that he has forgotten Gustavo Meli who selflessly helped him achieve that triumph in his musical career.
No one cares about an Argentinean

I love the different tone he makes on the bass drum depending on the section. Such a thoughtful drummer
I remember seeing that Modern Drummer DVD back then and being completely blown away how good the kid was. Really cool see him now and how far he's come! Awesome drummer.
Absolute machine, this guy deserves every ounce of success for all the hard work he’s clearly put in over the years,seems like a super nice dude too
It is impossible that there is a perfect drummer... Until Eloy came. Overall creativity, speed, musicality, dynamics, knowledge, culture, accuracy and his maturity. Such a wonderful time to see these kinds of drummers at this time where speed is the only thing in their minds.
This is one of the greatest things drummer has put out. I am in awe.
My favorite drummer of all time. What a legendary background. Him joining slipknot is downright AMAZING!!!
The dude is the epitome of "power under control". What a legend. It makes sense he was already crushing at 14. Awesome video. Thanks Eloy!! Thanks Drumeo!
Eloy is quickly becoming one of my favorites.
Gustavo Meli fué su maestro para ganar el MD!
He can navigate from soft ghost notes to full beast mode instantly.
He's a monster, one of the best drummers alive.
Thanks for watching? Dude, thanks for playing!
U make me a proud brazilian =)
not only Eloy respect his past, we all in the #drummer comunity respect that, not all of us were able to play like that at 14 yo, so humble Eloy but it´s nothing else tha the effort everyday on his development that got him where his now, at the mayor leagues in #drumming ... cheers to Eloy Casagrande
First heard of Eloy through a Jeff Loomis shout out. I absolutely love that he's all about the musicality of percussion, and that his path took him away from the flashy flarey flexy chops and rolls and into just making the most incredible dynamic choices. He's extremely humble and honest for such a machine.
Holy FORKS, the ending had him not only playing fast but LOOKING like he was sped up. I've never seen anyone play that fast/hard without changing form. Like, when people play that fast they are always taking some kind of physical shortcut to achieve it, but this dude WASN'T. Insane.
I like Slipknot. I have never been to a show and I am a drummer and love going to shows. I loved Joey's drumming. I loved Jay's contribution. When Slipknot played that warmup show with Eloy, I couldn't buy a ticket fast enough for their upcoming tour. See you in August Eloy.
Un talento incredibile ed un'intelligenza sopraffina al servizio del lavoro sullo strumento. Grande Eloy e grazie per il tuo esempio di dedizione ed impegno
At 14yo he was a professional drummer! Well done champ!
I’m getting really inspired to learn Latin drumming after watching Eloy do it. Guess I know what I’ll be searching for on Drumeo soon
The production quality on those videos are absolutly insane. All the shots, the montage, the zoom (they know what to zoom on), the overhead shot, etc... The sound quality of the kit, of each toms, snare, bassdrum, so clear and dynamic... Everything is such on a high level. Super clean and top notch, gotta love it. Huge shoutout to the production crew, sick videos all always.
Oh and Eloy is fucking sick
I was at that festival and he was mind blowing 🤯🥁🔥
He's def one the best drummers alive right now. Insanely good and oh so powerful.
16:11 smiling like "i bet u cant see my hands for the next minute"
Pernambuco, Brazil, representado!! ❤❤❤ emocionante!! ❤❤❤
maluco literalmente trouxe a a culturar dos 5 canto do brasil pro solo kkk
His solo at the Drummers United 2019 is his best performance to me. That solo is so creative and technical it could create an entire new genre on it's own.
Being 14 year old and already playing like a pro. Holy sh... Seriously what a freakin beast (in a good way obviously) of drums.
I was a Brazilian guitarrist with 15yr in 2005 when i saw Eloy first time doing the solo and legit give me inspiration to be a better musician and pursuit my goals. Wish i have that will power now hahahahaah, kids sure do have something special about the " JUST DOOOO IIITTTT " hahahahaa
Aren't you brazilian anymore?
@@pedromaciel2751 Maybe he's not a guitarist anymore
Thomas Lang has always been my favorite drummer, but I have to say....Eloy is right there with him. Love to see the progression of his career and talent. Awesome.
Virgil Donati eats Eloy in breakfast
Not a competition. I just like them.
It's a relief to see that even an absolute monster drummer like Eloy says he can't play something anymore because he stopped practicing it. The man is human after all 😂
No es nada bueno olvidarse quien te ayudo a llegar dónde estas. Gustavo Meli fue quien lo hizo y aquí no lo mencionaste Eloy.
Aquiles??? It is well know that Gustavo Meli from Argentina coach Eloy to win The MDF. Respect to people that give us their time, love and knowledge
that was 17 min of pure happiness, thank you
Yes, I’ve watched it in TH-cam, just look for Eloy Casagrande modern drummer festival
I prayed for this video. I can’t believe I found it!
If only I can put 10000000... likes for this video I would do!
Mainly thanks to Drumeo to kept this video till Eloy became the drummer for Slipknot!
Thanks to Eloy for having agreed to such a performance. Remembering your performance, making a reaction to it, and then repeating it is worth a lot.
Many years of success and collaboration with the best musicians. You are the best!
É do Brasil!!!!!!!!!!!, um dos melhores do Mundo, muito orgulho do nosso camarada;)
I remember vividly watching this video and thinking "this guy is the future of drumming, and were the same age, that’s awesome!". I believe I was right after all these years!
