First. Shalom. :3
you know, having a double kick pedal can’t be cheating because in order to be able to use it you have to be able to master t.
which technically you have to do with the other techniques as well. but just buying a double kick pedal is not gonna make u better or faster.
I'd really recommend finding a different sponsor. BetterHelp has multiple lawsuits against it and takes advantage of both clients and therapists.
El Estepario Siberiano gets a lot of hate because he's not typical. He's the TikTok generation of drummer, and what people are completely overlooking is that he makes drumming look fun, to people that aren't drummers. Anyone that can do that, and help get drumming out there to more people, is amazing in my eyes.
He's the best
hence why he's so overrated, he just plays fancy, but nothing better than other amazing drummers out there that get zero recognition... well guess that's just how it is these days
@@duckstabed7381wdym by fancy? bro literally plays all genre with incredible precision and speed, I’ve been drumming for 18 years and God I’ve never seen someone as close as him, frankly each of his limbs has brain of their own and not only that, guy’s an octopus.
I agree. They always say "he is overplaying and I bet he can't play with a band "
.I mean.... Do they really think he can play this well but once other musicians come into the picture he can't play a 4/4 in time? It's just jealously. I know I'll never be as good as him but he motivates me to try.
The overplaying thing... Do they think if he uploading a video of him playing highway to hell as bland as possible would have made him the biggest drummer in the world?
@@duckstabed7381 so you’re saying that every other amazing drummer should magically get recognition without doing anything for it? Being a good drummer, and using your creativity to showcase how good your drumming is, are two separate things. If someone is an amazing drummer yet can’t creatively put together content to showcase that, unfortunately, that’s their problem.
In the old days, drummers would have to do the same thing, but not through TikTok, they would have to play thousands of shows.
We live in an era where our phones can connect us to billions of people, if people can become the best drummer in the world, but not have the ability to prop up their phone against a wall and film it, then them not being recognised is their own fault.
Accountability is a hell of thing.
Estapario slept with my wife in between bass notes while covering a Lamb of God song. Dude's really fast.
This guy is so fucking fast if he's as fast in the bed as he is on them drums I don't think you or anyone could stop him from cheating on your wife or girlfriend. Even the girls couldnt be able to stop him. Nor could you Identify him. Haha You just wouldn't be fast enough to stop this guy. Lmfao. Again.... never stop Rocking .... click follow if tou
The dude's limb independence is off the charts. People that say he is cheating look at drumming like it's some kind of sport. Getting those gravity blasts tight is no easy feat and he makes it look easy.
He practices as a high performance athlete
I appreciate the dedication but none of what he does is acceptable in a song. I don't want to listen to a drummer vomit all over a song just because he can. It's distracting ADHD behavior.
Do what the song needs, nothing more.
Another thing that makes his drumming look/sound amazing is his snare drum - its extremely tight, which makes what he plays sound 10 x better and more precise. Imagine if he had a real loose snare - how would it all sound?
@@suburbanindie you’re delusional
@@suburbanindiehe knows it.
be able to do a lot and you will be able to chose what faits any song. extreme metal need that speedy for example
THERE IS NO CHEATING IN DRUMMING…. IT LITERALLY IS WHAT YOU HEAR…. DONT MATTER HOW YOU PLAY IT.. AS LONG AS YOU ARE ACTUALLY PLAYING IT…… ITS MORE LIKE A TECHNIQUE…. PERIOD ….. 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Drumming itself maybe, but drumming in social media there definitely is cheating.
Well, I think E drumming is kind of cheating as e drums become better and better.
I own a yamaha recording custom kit.
10", 12", 13", 15", 16", 18", 22" - you have to pay 8k for the shells only.
As its an acoustic kit, I have to put it in a studio - can not use it in my flat.
Microphones, Kables, Interface, DAW - make it 5k if you use cheap stuff.
The setup in the DAW took me month. After I had to put my kit to another
position in the room of the studio, everything sounded different - had to redo it.
Before I start playing, I have to tune my kit. And I have to tune on sound, not on
best stick rebound. That is the main "cheating" parameter. Mesh heads have a
much better rebound naturally and one can increase the tension without changing
the sound.
E drums - 4k and you get a advanced kit from roland, 1k and you get something
to make impressive youtube videos. XDrum DD 670 is absolutely sufficient.
I am also using a bass drum trigger on my acoustic kit. You can play completely
different stuff with it. Playing meshuggah or Pantera - it sounds so hard to play -
with trigger its so much easier. Just do it - place a trigger on your bass drum, they
are not expensive and record the MIDI and the Mic channel.
When I hit my floor tom not exactly in the center, the sound is completely different.
On e drums, one can disable positional sensing and equalize the signal - it does not
mater how you hit a head, its sounds the same. It is cheating, if one wants to use
this word. You need no precission and no dynamics. Like you miss the target in
fortnite by meters but you still hit is - its cheating.
@@Jan021981 🤣 I own a pretty big Roland TD-30 kit, with an ALESIS Strike Pro Module also with it. My Favorite kit is the Yamaha oak Custom kit on the ALESIS mod
@@Jan021981 I don’t think E-Drums are cheating.. I More think they are just getting CLOSER to Sounding and Playing like an Acoustic kit. IMO
@@Jan021981 Unfortunately sounds to me like you’re a frustrated drummer with an elitest acoustic kit mindset. You point out in your comment ALL of the reasons an Ekit is beneficial, and to call it cheating is a very dangerous headspace to be in. I know this comment will ruffle your feathers a little (or maybe not, which good on you) but our responsibility as viewers, and fellow drummers, SHOULD be on the drummer themselves and not the tools they use.
Definitely an example of what pure dedication can achieve. One road block for me is crossing that wall of intermediate to advanced. One thing I notice is that I make a lot of excuses of why I don't practice as much. This is a good wake up call to put extra time aside to practice.
100%. Keep pushing forward.
@@DrumBeatsOnline Thanks soo much.
Keep in mind that people like Gabe and Estepario... don't see hurdles as roadblocks. They don't even see them as challenges. They just see them as milestones along the way. Sometimes that milestone passes quickly, sometimes it takes longer. Sometimes it passes without you even noticing it.
So don't fixate on the "intermediate" vs. "advanced" thing... just keep moving yourself down that road. And one day, you'll be there. But you got to put the work in. Think about the work as gas you are putting into your car to help you continue the journey. The more gas you put in, the farther you'll go. Maybe you're driving a Pinto and some other guy is in a Porsche, but both need the gas to move forward.
@@fleatactical7390 Thanks sooo much for those words. I noticed that being in a professional band that consists and relies on me to practice and play on time has really pushed me to focus on learning and performing our songs. But now I'm at a point where we're recording an EP and now I have to play faster and be creative as a drummer. I'm hoping to really put in focus but with working and my home life I have to make a schedule for myself to really put in the practice. Hopefully it works out and I gotta put in the gas like you said.
Exactly right mate! The only thing you either have or don't have is an obsessive drive towards your own given passion. Unfortunately most people are nurtured with a mindset that things just are, all you can do is try to fit in.
The consequence of which can be seen all over the comments filled with negativity and bitterness. Generations of people on the wrong path, convinced of their own failure and a desperate to feel relevant if only with destructive behaviour.
It's fine to not like something, but don't waste time in believing voicing that empowers you. Just do what makes you happy and productive and others will be inspired to follow.
I remember when he made that video talking about how talent was bullshit. People in the comments still disagreed. Washed up drum teachers were convincing people in the comments that music is one of those things that "either you've got it or you don't", and somehow completely missed the irony that if anyone doesn't have it, they're the ones that don't. It's a mindset issue. Estepario has been playing drums for a very long time, he started going all in on his TH-cam career and his massive improvement arc while he was also on tour and playing with a band as a professional drummer. To say that he, or any other musician who's seemingly leagues above most everyone else, is talented and that they have a "gift", saying things like "I wish I could do that" is a huge slap in the face to all of the long hours spent behind the kit that he's spent. He says that in the video. Any time you wanna talk about how amazing a musician is, you could replace the word "talent" with the word "dedication" and you'd be so much closer to the truth. Talent is an excuse. He's not talented, he's dedicated. His skill isn't something that was given to him, it's something that he earned through hard work and determination. Blaming it on talent is just lazy and it's an easy way to accept that you're right, you won't ever be that good. Not with that mindset.
Not only is it harmful to the individual, but for guys like these drum teachers, that's horribly harmful to their students as well, and maybe that's where I get angry about it. Imagine the next Buddy Rich put down the sticks because his drum teacher said he should find a job instead of telling him to work harder.
Well said.
I'm sure drum teachers are angry bc their students are like " can you teach me to play like El?" And they would never be able to play like that. El is getting so many eyes on the drumming community.. why hate on that?
@@redfin382 because misery loves company. If they keep them from reaching their goals, they can relate to them
i agree, but keep in mind - music is actually an ARTFORM! estepario, as much as i like him, does NOT adress that! its all purely technical, thats nice for tiktok and YT and every other drummer that is fascinated by his insane skill, but in real life not necessarily helpful when a creative band needs a drummer who understands their music. and BTW about skill - one of the greater skills a drummer can have is playing swingtime with the right feel. he NEVER plays swingtime. he always plays straight time. swing time is difficult to a lot of people.
Maybe it's because when you teach people you see how different people have different abilities and progress at very different speeds, which makes you get why talent matters too. Consistent and efficient (or "smart") work matters a lot but like a lot of things in life, a good recipe is a mix of several ingredients well measured.
I am not even a drummer, but a guitarist, but I still have a lot to learn from drumming videos and overall drummers’ experience. El Estepario’s style as well as his experience and mindset is something that apply’s well on all the instruments possible. Cost does not matter
Aside from his drumming mastery, his blatant honesty is what wins me over every time. I feel like there's more dishonesty than ever in this world, and it's great to see someone who does not BS at all when he opens his mouth... In terms of drummers, I remember guys like Buddy Rich claiming they don't practice and only play when it's time to perform. Clearly he was lying, but it was just overall disrespectful and showed how he only cared about himself.
How dare you call Buddy Rich a liar. Disrespectful, only cared about himself? You make my blood boil. I met Buddy many years ago before a show in Sacramento CA at a club called "On Broadway" Imagine a 17yr old Bushy haired Metal Head decked out in a patch covered denim vest and spikes n studs. Knocked on his tour bus door with snaredrum head n black sharpie in hand. The door opened and a guy with the heaviest New York accent l have ever heard says, "Waddaya need kid?" l couldnt even speak, my StepDad chimed in, Autograph for a fellow drummer. Guy yells, Hey Buddy theres a kid here to sees ya! Less than a minute later there he stood in the doorway larger than life, looking down on this starstruck skinny Metalhead whiteboy and a black man, (StepDad) Oozing with charisma and confidence he lead the conversation and told me the secret to becoming a great drummer. Practice, practice, practice! Learn the fundamentals, master your rudiments. Play them everyday religiously.
That evening l sat less than 10 feet away and watched the Master at work. Buddy Rich is The Greatest Drummer of All Time!
There is an interview of - I believe it is Dennis Chambers- talking about Estepario. He has the following conclusion: Estepario is revolutionizing this instrument. Call it cheating or whatever you like - but his suprime limb independence, creativity and technique are showing us new ways to develop rhythm and groove in this beautiful instrument.
As a guitarist who struggle a lot crossing the line between going from intermediate to advance guitarist, it is crazy how much i learned from his mindset.
Dude, just yesterday i had an appointment with my psychologist exactly because of this… I didn’t felt my drumming was where i wanted it to be, and this video fits exactly as an extension and complement on what she said to me.
Thanks dude! I think many of us needed this 🙌🏼
There's a couple of facts about Estepario that anyone interested on what he does should know, the way I see it. First, how hard he works, nobody wanting to climb to the top can avoid long hours or practicing, especially in the formative years, until the extraordinary becomes normal for the student. Second, he draws from a wide diversity of styles and drummers, although that is not evident on his videos, that mainly focus on rock, which is an easy style, rhythmically speaking; guy explores reggae and salsa, which are more complex rhythms, with the same proficiency. Finally, he's very keen on technical innovations, he adopts technological advances very quickly, practices on them until he reaches mastery. Of course there's more to his awesomeness than these simple facts, that's just what I see that stands out
The secret of estepario is that he knows more than 300 songs he had to play when he was working with that popular orchestra.. That means he knows patterns from many many styles, from flamenco, rumba, samba, pop, rock, spanish folk music etc etc etc.. Most modern drummers usually stick to just the music the like to listen..
He admitted that he practices for up to 15 hours a day. If I did that I'd be a drum god. (most people with talent would.)
Siberiano’s secret is that he is a mutant. Literally.
None of what he plays is appropriate for anything other than the most advanced prog rock. He's all over the place. Extremely annoying. There are three or four other people in the band, we're not necessarily here to see a drum clinic
@@suburbanindie I'm sure he plays that way just to show off on YT. Because nobody who respects group playing minimally would play like that in a band performance. You are most probably slightly annoyed that you can't do what he does, but hey, it happens to 99.97% of drummers 😂
Really on point, distilled and inspirational beak-down of the key-points of this great musician, cheers, man!
That means a lot, thank you!
There's so much to learn from him.

I quit drumming for over thirty years and started back at the age of 55.
I have practiced almost everyday for the past three years and it's paid off.
But I need to practice more hours each day.
People like you and El motivate me to get better.
Thanks
Hey, I see many people calling him «El», but it would be «El estepario» 😉.
«El» is just the male article, like «the». While there's a band called «The The», we'll probably agree we wouldn't call someone just «The» 😁.
«Estepario» means «someone from the steppe», using a male gender. Is there an English word for this, like a demonym? 🤔
«Siberiano» just means «Siberian», using the male gender.
Given how English grammar works for nominal forms as opposed to Spanish, you could probably shorten it to «Estepario», like it was done through the video.
Since he chose to use «el» as part of his name (it's not compulsory), «estepario» becomes a generic noun, not a name. But in Spanish you would use it just like «Estepario» in the vocative, like when you'd be addressing him.
Props to you for taking drumming back! ✊ I'm about a decade younger, and there isn't anything we can't do at any age.
I'm thinking about picking my sticks up again.....I'm 62 but I'm going to start back up.....I won a Tri State medal back in the 70,s and just didn't pursue it after highschool....So here we go.....good luck with your comeback.....
@@calvincamara7708 you too. I probably won't ever be very good again but I sure have fun
I love watching all drummers including estepario. Everyone’s individual style is what makes drumming so great.
That Borderland's-esque intro goes so hard
You truly broke this down in the most elegant and awesome way. And here's why... You can replace the drumming in this video with anything in life. You should do more than drumming videos!
This is maybe the most important Video about EES.
Everything is explained very well and very understandably. Hopefully all these "This is speed up!" and "He's a cheater!" Keyboardwarriors learn something from it...
I really enjoyed this video. This proves that this is definitely a new era. TH-camr is a real profession. Estepario Siberiano is a genius and I'm absolutely
thankful to watch him.
How much were you paid to post such an butt-kissing critique of this vanity video?
Estepario not only motivates drumers but everyday struggles
Ive rebuilt my boat ladt 3 yrs watching him. I got rid of my drums and got a bass and i still eatch him.
💯 hands down motivational mother fucker
Ironically, he made me quit drumming! 😅
Seriously though, El Estepario is one heck of a talented drummer that's for sure
For me, El Estepario Siberiano is one of the best drummers of this time. He has his tricks, but there is no cheating involved. He plays it all and does it damn well. He's also a very likeable guy and not a poser. I love him.
Gabe definitely should run psychology sessions for drummers on a regular basis😄
🤣🤣
Not only for drummers! :)
It's so true, there's that line where if you want to get better, you have to be willing to pay that price. Great content as always Gabe! 🥁
Much appreciated!
How can you play like El Estepario unless you are El Estepario? Give the man the credit he deserves. His talent goes far beyond these isolated techniques.
This video is not specifically about Estepario, but it's all about you, Gabe! Your analysis of Estepario's drumming and videos is SSSSOOOOO helpful! You make it understandable, reasonable and reachable. You remove divine amazement and leave facts and goals. You helped a lot of people with this video. Thank you!
He is an absolute LEGEND
Him having someone motivate to be as good as him is a real talent..
Ain't no way, I got two videos that have betterhelp in it, like what is TH-cam tryna tell me. But Seberiano is one of the best drummers I've seen
I think the best technique that jorge gave to the drum comunitty was his "reallity blast" about really hard work, dedication and transparent mindset apliyed to the drum set.i really fell grateful 4 that
This is one of THE best drum videos on the planet...ever. Thanks for sharing
As a long time drummer and a lifelong skateboarder, something can be learned from the skating community is that although they compete directly, they for the most part use that to grow and encourage each other. Each trick is celebrated and shared, not coveted and put down.
Man! this changed my idea about playing drums.Thank you very much Gabe for making this video. ❤❤❤
My pleasure!
This is a BRILLIANT video dude - what most aspiring drummers, and ppl wanting to get good at ANYTHING need to hear!... Mindset is everything and it takes strength, grit, determination & PMA to become this good! 👊 Huge respect for Estepario and you Gabe! 🤘🔥 Steve
Wow. That was both a psychology and drums lesson. Well done! Both what Siberiano says and how you told his story can really be applied to all sorts of things in life. Thank you!
Thank you brother Ive been waiting for someone to make this video . Nothing but love and respect for everyone in the vid .
This video breaks Estepario down so well! Great job, Gabe!
We did it together!
the man the myth the legend... and he's just chill af
Yeah its called ingenuity and practice practice practice. Dudes a beast
the fact that the later tips/hacks also work for everything else is a good reminder for me to do the best i can in everything.
thank you for this video!
I've learned some Drum stuff that El Estepario Did
And I'm still practicing to audition for a band
I'm still following his instructions to play some SLIPKNOT
THX for the VIDEO
I hope I see you in person someday.
I like the video. Thank you. I was told long ago by a teacher, "Does it matter if something takes a day, a month or a year to learn and master a goal? Like it or not that day, month or year is going to come and go whether you put the time in or not so what do you have to lose?"
He is great and you too
❤️
I'm 37 and after watching Estepario for about 6 months, I've decided to buy an electric kit to start with and just have fun and beat my stress away. I truly liked the fact that you talked about the mindset. We all start somewhere and progress on our own terms. Estepario not only shows what that mindset, focus and pure love for drumming does, but he also sells the fun aspect of drumming to old farts like me. Thanks for a great video and breakdown 👌
This drummer is wise beyond his years. Fantastic insights and advice.
My drum teacher was doing musicals in the evening at Vienna’s Theater an der Wien. He taught me “coordinated independence” with a book from the 40th. That was in the 80th. The clues were very similar. So today’s drummers are the logical continuation. I didn’t keep working on my drumming, today I am a therapist and I really appreciate your clever way of explaining his way of achieving his goals. It talks a lot about your wins and I love to see people succeed with their dreams. You rock.
This is such a great video! After some reflection as a guitar player with over 20yrs of playing, I learned a few things and equally as importantly I REMEMBERED somethings!! The drive we have when we’re 1st learning after we’ve fallen in love with our instruments, THAT feeling... the total commitment to the process and the hours of practice and dedication to honing our skills tends to drop off as we advance. We get better and have to practice less to achieve things unless we keep the bar constantly moving, always challenging ourselves to be better..that's so important! Complacencies kill!! Keep your goals moving and your headspace positive! Great video man, everyone should hear this!! 🤘🤘
thanks for this video! this is the best type of thing any drummer (or anyone) can find here. technic and excercises are everywhere, but its really the mindset that allows or prevents us for getting where we want. This is true motivation and what we should be learning, dont compare yourselves just inspire from the greatests
Very informative video. Make sure you get on the list, everyone. Gabe is an amazing teacher. You can not go wrong. Hope to see you all there. DBO FOR LIFE.
Excellent analysis and advice! Thank you for making this video.
Great video dude... my favourite videos of Jorge are the life lesson ones... the ones people never seem to watch... to their detriment. The fireworks are amazing, sure, but what he is trying to tell people (not just drummers) could actually help them, glad you brought this to light.
Great breakdown and analysis of El Estepario's regimen. Thank you so much!
Gabe, this is one of the best drum videos I've seen in a while. I am so thankful for your sacrifice in taking the time to shoot, edit, get the homework in check, & of course sharing it with the world. I needed to hear everything you said here. I have heard it before but your delivery was 💯. Thank you BROTHA!
And with that being said.... How does his butt taste?
Hey Gabe! From spain madrid, THANKS FOR THIS VIDEO!!!! Amazing work, amazing explanation, BIG CONGRATS!!!!
Huge esterapio & you!!
Great topic with great explanations. I watched it with pleasure until the end
Great video, thank you. I am so much more inspired by El Estepario than ever before :)
Hey, thank you. This video actually helped me as a guitarist. Very inspiring 👏! And I really appreciate you showing all the hard work he put in to get where he is.
Love the way this was brought up, it applies to everything in life... thank you!
I appreciate the way you communicate these things sir, very observant & well explained. THX!
First, to anyone say estepario is cheating, show how you will do it, show me your gravity blast... Second, this video is so much more than a videos about a drummer. The mindset part hit me right in perfect moment and helped me a lot! Thx for that. Maybe you could do a mindset video to become a better person in everything you interested in. What you want and what you willing to spend for that is a universal question that everyone should think about
So insane how good your content is as well Gabe!
Gabe, thank you a lot for this motivation. I'm really going through a hard period of my life and - thanks to your research - it really feels like I will be able to get through it.
Cheers!
What an exceptional video. I'll admit, at this point my interest in drumming is a relic of my teens that I still enjoy watching content about, but this video/Estepario's words transcend that. I'm at a lynchpin moment in my life/career and have recently started losing faith in myself. It's easy to forget things like perspective and patience when you've been on a grind for 4 straight years.. doing things you never could imagine being capable.. of all because your brain is screaming at you that you haven't gotten everything perfect yet. And this video reminded me... well, "Good things take time and often OBSCENE amounts of effort". Great work here, and I gained a TON of respect for El Estepario.
Incredible video showcasing the best of El Estepario. Also giving us tips on how we can all improve not only with our drums, but with anything in life.
Very inspiring ! ❤ thanks
He is an amazing drummer that dosent rely on his short cuts in fact he explains them and makes them well known has done so since the beginning. I love his content and he also does the work to be able to play these “cheats” or innovations from companies now that others are just not willing to take part in. That’s why Drumeo was so quick to pick him up.
Wow, thanks for all the tips! They were great!
Thank you brother this was a great video.🥁😎🥁
Another awesome video man!! Great work, you’re crushing it!!
This was an amazing video with lots of good LIFE lessons that also happen to be practical for drummers. Great video. Thank you!
Estepario clips give me insane motivation to get back to practice
Thanks, Gabe. Needed this.
so much respect to your positive attitude.
Great video. Thanks for putting it out there. Wonderful concepts not only for drumming but ... well ... life.
Great video! Really good advice :) thanks for sharing!
Excellent post!!!!!!!!! This post is helpful on many levels and avenues. Thanks. 🙂
No, talent is NOT a lie. I've seen waayyyyy too many musicians who manage to have a near "built-in" understanding of music and instruments, playing amazing and complicated things while having the barest familiarity with the instrument.
For some people, musical instruments really are just a much more natural thing to master. They're just wired that way. *That* is what "talent" is; a natural affinity for the tools it takes to achieve the goal.
It is real.
And El Estepario Siberiano is one of them. Whether he wants to admit it or not.
Man, let me just tell you that what you just pointed out here (you and estepario), every single one of it is also applicable in life.
Loved every single minute of this video and subscribed after! Thank you!
What an analysis dude!! I'm saving this this to show my son in some years..
The double single pedal is used occasionally. He uses regular double pedal most of the time and it’s extremely precise
Great review! cheers bro, saludos desde Ecuador!
What you see in social media is nothing but a edited cut of something that someone want you to see. Here in Brazil we have a saying: "Those who see close, don't see the running". Close is what we call the pose for the photo (that you see in social media), and the running is everything that was made (the hard work) to make that one photo. Never forget: Behind every close, there was a lot of running!
You got to love what you are doing along with talent and practice
I got the stick rocking thing years back from Mike Mangini at a master class i followed way before he joined DT, great technique
Great video as always, Gabe! He’s such a monster player!
Also, cool to see a quick clip from my gravity blast lesson featured on here to help people further understand the motion! Cheers! 🙂🤘🏼
Not a musician, just live vicariously through them. I have to say this was a well-put-together video that has applications outside of drumming. Excellent video bro! 🤘
He is absolutely right!
Since I saw him and other drummers like him couple years ago I can play songs over 250 bpm (single strokes hands) and have fun.
As soon as you feel a drumstick like your own limb you are golden.
I love watching that guy play.
Thanks Gabe, I saw you recently at Good Things festival in Melb. Awesome show BTW. I have an old diary I write stuff in, just got motivated to write the things I want to accomplish....be a better drummer....top of the list. Great video.
If you understand and can implement faster than the others, then it's talent. Talent exists, no question. Over and out.
Great job... Thank you so much.... I am not a drummer.... but the message you gave applies to all aspects of life.....
I love how Gabe breaks things down from a drummer’s perspective, then elevating it to a level where you can benefit from those concepts even from an aspect of life. Please keep up such great content Gabe ❤

This is a beautiful video that goes way beyond drumming. Very applicable to all aspects of life.
Great video. EEs's discipline, dedication and willingness to think outside the box is a valuable template for anyone that wants to advance their craft. You organized it very well!
Thanks for this video 🙏🏻 I've been following Estepario for a year now! I'm not a drummer, just a hobby guitarist, but what he illustrates with his videos and his persistence is life. Not just in music, but everywhere in life. What is your goal and what are you willing to do to achieve it? a truly inspiring person with an eventful story! Great! I'm a fan of Estepario!!!!!
There is another oooooold phrase to say the same thing. "is the juice worth the squeeze"
the first time i ever saw both stick rocking and gravity blast techniques was Johny Rabb

Excellent Analysis Sir....We Practice what we preach... To get the result..

It’s so inspiring!! Leads me to think deep about the mindset of drumming🤔 I’m so willing to pay the price to be the drummer I want to become in my dreams!! This video completely changes my future. Thanks so much Gabe and El Estepario!!!
Thank you, man. This video is excellent and I can relate with everything you said. I'm struggling with bad things in my head but watching this video shows me the proof I need to know: I am doing it right.
