If you cant chi your kick drum (chi drum) with the ancient art of dragon strike, then *index thumb on forehead* RUESAA:rolleyes:


Dudes, he wasn't hiding it. He didn't set it up on an acousta-electric (see hellhammers kit), or try to make you think he was doing it for a second (I have seen some people get so proud about their speed but only because they triggered it and were running a "woman menstrating while depressed" sensitivity, that registers ocean floor earthquakes better then nasa's seizmagraphs, and triggers whenever a new child is born in china (about 16th notes at 135bpm. Chinese do it like rabits and gestate like fruitflys man).

At least you know that there really is a limit to how fast you can go on a kick drum and still have it maintain some sort of relevance (stfu you jazzies who think that hitting the bassdrum more than once a couple of bars isn't drumming, double kicks is kicks too)

its interesting, but i would prefer to hear that on acoustic drum kit, because the sound here is similar to fruity loops at 320bps

:lol: That was a pretty funny video. Some of those electric drum sounds were really bad, specifically the bass drum which sounded like pure crap.

I don't see the point. It's about as musical sounding as my electric toothbrush.

The point is he was probably just fucking around. Look at his face while he's playing, it doesn't look like he's taking it seriously at all. I hardly see why this is anymore ridiculous than bands who use a drum machine or something else.



There's another video of him. Definitely not the cleanest drummer, but I'd like to see any of us do any better :lol:

I think his hand skills are okay, as long as he's not trying to gravity blast :lol:

I have a hard time understanding why you people cant look beyond this video, okay the guy isn't the best drummer, but what would happen if a really good drummer would get his hands on this pedals and an electric kit ?

I'm not saying that speed is the most important thing but in some music styles speed is an important factor and let say someone like the drummer in nile could surely make use of these things. Maybe just for one song or for one passage of a song or something.

I just think it's funny that people are shitting on this on a seven string forum. If anyone should be able to find acceptance for their different tastes in musical instruments, it should be here :lol: "Why are you using 2 beaters per pedal? One should be enough" :lol: Sounds familiar?

Lol, didn't even know this existed :lol:
He's a pretty decent drummer though his gravity rolls still needs some work

Agreed 100%, I'm defining this guys quad pedals for the same reason I defend my seventh and eighth strings! :cool: Shit, I'd play in a band with him in a second. :agreed:

That was actually pretty damn cool. I could see some uses for that.

Now let's try to figure out how many drum hits/second that is. What is it like, 8 hits per foot per second?

I like that he can do one footed double kick blasts and have the other foot free for something else. I don't really see what the problem is.
