- My own composition written to accompany this fantastic solo by Virgil Donati for DW drums. My composition is fairly heavily influenced by Virgil Donati's solo albums: 'In This Life' and 'Dawn of Time'. So if you like this you should definitely Check those albums out. Enjoy! :)
Original video: • Virgil Donati plays DW...

Every time dude. So good. Can't wait to hear the next one
Thanks man :)
Sometimes I forget these have been composed after the fact. I thought I was watching Virgil play to a track he had prepared for the DW video. Bravo, Alastair.
Thank you haha :)
This was exactly my thought when I discovered Alastair. My brain froze when I realized it was composed on the solo. Awesome musicality to fool us like this !
@@Mephistito It's also a good sentiment towards the drummers themselves. If their ideas make enough sense to compose around and make the composition sound good, it's a testament to the player's ability to be musical.
Absolutely amazing ! Those time changes are so hard to keep up with! Well done man this is great stuff, love your channel!
Thank you :)
Oh man I love this channel !
Thanks a lot :)
The 8th note quintuplets in 4/4... Man!
killer job
Thanks :)
Nice one!
Complete awesomeness! Btw, does any of you know what is that gorgeous ride that Virgil use in this video?
Thanks man, not sure about the ride I'm afraid :)
You are a big talent man!!! Great job!!!
Thanks mate :)
Love it!
nice work, you should look at Carter Mclean for your next piece. A great musical drummer with groove for days
That’s amazing bruh!
Wow, just wow! Amazing work!!
absolutely god blessedly brilliant.
We should have a album
Insane limb independence
God
5:28 sharp #11 lydian chord= Virgil's chord
Haha, well spotted :)
Do the drummers have a metronome? How do they keep in time like this
Virgil has a metronome for the first 2 minutes(ish) on this video. For the rest of my videos, they don't have a metronome. Although before I write the compositions I create my own metronome track to the solos. :)
The correct answer is, he doesn't need one .. He's a machine
Woah! I'm early!
Who else thumbs up before the videos even start?
Fuckin A
The playing is of course amazing but I'm not a fan of the drum mix. The hihats are obnoxiously bright, the kick doesn't have enough bottom, and the whole thing has too much room tone that doesn't blend well with how close mic'd every other instrument in the mix is
Yeah, I know what you mean about the drum mix, I'm no expert but the drums do sound a little harsh to me.
ruined.
He did again. Beautiful composition, Alastair! Keep doing this AUTHENTIC job ! What crazy sequence starting at 5:00 with a powerful riff at 5:21
Thanks man, glad you enjoyed it :)
Great job it's really great to follow all the odd time signature also rhythm modulations and dig deeper into virgil's mind because the music helps create a road map
Thank you :)
I've seen this man play live twice. Once was with Allan Holdsworth shortly before he passed. I am somewhat convinced Virgil is not human. Guy creates black holes while he's playing and creates time that is outside of itself.
This is freakin' amazing! You and Virgil should make an album together!
Thank you :)
Loving the natural sound of the kit
Incredible again thanks
Cheers :)
Deeply amazing
Thank you :)
Dude this is absolutely AMAZING! Has Virgil seen this? Man you gotta get your shit to him, I’m sure he would love to collaborate with you. This is genius! Soooo Awesome!!! Congrats! Keep it up big time! 👍👍👍
Cheers man :)
Oh shit... PURE PERFECTION
Cheers dude :)
5:52 WTF!..... Only Virgil can look like he is actually playing as if the film has been sped up, it's very surreal !
Thanks once again for the beautiful music and inspiration, just mesmerising.
No problem! Glad to hear you're enjoying the vids :)
Very coool )!!!!!!!
Thanks :)
Wow! great work! And thank for removing that very annoying slow motion part near the end!
Absolutely Freaking Brilliant 🙏❤
As expected, right there !
Thanks again for sharing your talent
Cheers justin :)
some sounds remember me Matt Garstka video...
Pure awesomeness, from both of you. Very imaginative! 🥁
Thank you :)
HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLY SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT
Good God. Incredible work Alistair.
Thanks :)
Can you render this in 60 fps?
I’d buy this.
Will you at some point release these compositions as play alongs ?
Nevermind see you already have.
Alastair, make ANYTHING with Mike Mangini!!!! PLEASE.
Who ? 😁
brilliantly created
This is amazing!
Wow very well done!
El complejo baterísta... siguiendo las métricas de independencia más rebuscadas!
God sake! Virgil has to watch this!
👍
Ｍusic too loud
Robert Vandenberg I thought it was a terrific mix and one look at the comments it’s clear just about everyone did.
