For those who didn't know, the world was FINALLY graced after a long wait with the Italian, Vadrum's debut album "Classical Drumming".
Here is a slice of the epicness that it contains.



The one thing that separates him from other solo drummers is the pure fun an energy that he puts into his performances, which can quite literally be heard through his recordings. He has made many wonderful drum covers, and not only classical music ones. This is the video that got me interested 2 years ago (assuming you have all heard monophonic Nokia ringtones):



Here is a link for those who wish to purchase this as I just did (only online purchases at the moment);
http://www.classicaldrumming.com/index_eng.htm

It is well worth it, putting a highly interesting twist on the most influential music genre.

EDIT: Can't believe I forgot to add this;

I have been waiting for this album for AGES! It was originally an October release date, and I was SOO excited because I was in Italy then so I could grab a hard copy and shit without it being shipped over but it just didn't happen. But now it's out and it is DAMN good!!

Im at my mates house, and i had to show him that first video as he plays in an orchestra and wishes their drummer was like that!
the other two were okay, but not as interesting or energetic as the first one. Mr Bungles cover of the mario theme was fucking awesome.

But as for that first video, all I can say is!

I wish my kit sounded half as good as this guy's.
I don't like overly huge drumkits because most drummers don't know how to use them and sometimes even use it to mask their lack of imagination (if you can be creative and funky on a basic kit, you can be so on a large kit, not always the other way around). But this guy works that thing like the baddest motherfunker I've ever seen.
Look at the fun he's having! That's so important and that makes his music sound better.

At first I was a bit discouraged by watching this as I can never get on his level, but I can sure as hell try to have just as much fun. That's something a lot of musicians don't keep in mind.

Totally agree, some of the best jazz drummers barely even have a full basic kit, but the you get drummers like Dave Lombardo in fantomas who have 360 kits that are used completely to perfection!

Whats really sweet about that is you pick fantomas as Lombardo's band, I think most people know him from Slayer right?

lol well the drumming he does in slayer is like a 10th of his ability. Plus im a much bigger fantomas fan than slayer; tbh i only really enjoy slayer because of him.

Indeed, those videos are quite a bit of time apart, and none of them have quite as much energy as his classical drumming, which makes me so glad for the album released.

Niel Peart is a different kind of drummer than the one ollie posted about, but I'm a big classic rock/rock fan, and this guy always amazed me.


this one's a bit long, but still ridiculous

solo starts around 3:20 if you're interested.

If we're gonna talk about drummers in general I might as well throw in a few artists that have inspired me quite a bit :mrgreen:



Bonham is a beast. His drumming as raw, emotional, sweaty, primal. All the things I like in drummers, drumming and music in general.
This might not sound mindblowing but at the time it was almost unheard of and some of the techniques he uses have influenced a lot of later drummers.



Chad Smith. Not very technical, special or even innovative in his drumming, but I just love the funky things he does and how he's that ingredient in the funk stew that doesn't taste amazing on its own, but ads a nice touch to the 'flavour' of this musical dish. He's the man that got me into drumming.

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8_ajnHQt ... re=related[/youtube]

Dave Grohl is heavily inspired by Bonham and (like the other drummers I've posted) is just bursting with energy. This particular clip might not show of his best work, but it shows he's changed since Nirvana and that he seems a bit misplaced in the Foo Fighters.

Oh, and, FRESH POTS!!

He's a really good example of someone who does a lot with a very little :)

Dave Grohl is a legend! Even when his drums weren't to interesting in Nirvana his work with Queens and the D is awesome.

Also i swear in some of those clips he looked like a Skinny Silent Bob :D :5:

---

I love the drumming in Fantomas (even though its probably not appreciated by alot of people because of it being quite avant garde), its normally recorded by Dave Lombardo, but live he quite often can't make it due to slayer commitments (DAMN YOU SLAYER! :twisted: ) so in these videos its Terry Bozzio who plays for Frank Zappa and Missing Persons.

Anything with Mike Patton hurts my face and my soul but in a completely good way. Mr. Bungle blows my face off. Squeeze Me Macaroni is among one of my favourite songs after I read the lyrics.

....its about having sex with food.

David Grohl certainly is HOT a legend, amazing music artist and I kinda agree that he does remind me too of Skinny Silent Bob when he wears the baseball cap with his long hair :shock:

Just thought I'd add this one too :wink:
...and then of course there's the spoof which always makes me laugh, great bit of advertising!

Damon Che from Don Caballero is my favourite drummer.. Followed by John Stanier of Helmet, Tomahawk and Battles and Ikue Mori.

Ben Koller from Converge is pretty good too.

Recently my friend Nadin has been introducing me to a lot of African drumming and frankly nothing comes close those guys are amazing when she's back I'll get some videos from her.
