    He is amazing!

  • Cool!

    Wow, I wish I played this well at age 10!

    The kid is REALLY good for his age, and anyone who disagrees is probably jealous. I hope he sticks with it.

    One tip -- RELAX. You're getting a lot of tension in your lower arms. Unlock your wrists. It doesn't seem like a big deal now, because it's not inhibiting your speed. But down the road, all this extra tension is going to end your career early.

    Keep practicing!

  • its good

    but its so basic i agree with whoever said lay off the snare he is just playing a few fills quickly simple for most anyone who has been playing for a bit i'm not too impressed

  • How?

    Can someone explain to me, how can he move hes arms so fast? I think, this video is speeded up. Just watch hes shirt! Anyways, he knows where to hit, so he surely plays for a few years.
    And after a strong use of hes arms, he raises both of them for us, just like nothing happened in the last ten minutes, to let us know, he is all right! Cool! :D
    I wonder how many hours he trains hes slim arms daily...
    Can anyone tell me, what kind of effect electronics he use? I'm a wannabe drummer too.

    • theres no way Kordi

      That the vid is sped up.....watch the cymbals and his other body parts they dont move abnormally. And as for him raising his arms after this have you ever seen any other amazing drummers? There are videos where
      people drum WAY faster that this guy- so fast it sounds like one note, so stop trying to steal the kids thunder by saying its fake or sped up.

    • tempo

      ... i forgot to mention the tempo. Why he counts the tempo at the beginning, if the fist beat he plays is faster than the count? Or just my eyes and ears fail to serve me?

  • Y'all are jealous

    If you don't think this kid is good you are extremely jealous, in denial, or never played the drums in your life. Just because he's ten you want to critisize him but if he was 30 you all would praise him. You would think he was a proffesional. He is an amazing drummer. I have played the drums for a while and I dont even scrape the surface on his level.

  • I`m nearly alive...

    I just can`t believe he is trying to do the drum solo of Mike Portnoy, and for his age he does it well,... well I can`t explain, better download it and see for yourself, and for the people talking sh!t, sorry guys but your are just jealous, this kid for sure is gonna be the next Neil Pert

  • Jealousy!

    yeah, y'all who are knocking him are just jealous. I'm 25, going to music school to study jazz, and I don't have the chops, fluidy, or ease of motion that he has. He's a natural... just face it

    By coyasso 1158394442 Reply Spam Moderate Up Moderate Down
  • Retards

    most of you commenting on this vid are complete morons. It's a Jazz type drum solo that he's doing. It's not supposed to be like playing a normal song. If you've ever heard any jazz drummers like Steve Gadd or Dave Weckle you'd realize the style that he's doing.

    By Loreo 1151485742 Reply Spam Moderate Up Moderate Down
  • Nice

    Ok, so this kid has a lot of skill....and I mean a lot, but notice his freakin awesome set. He has a ton on stuff there. I only have a standard five-piece P.O.S. drum set with an added cowbell. Also, If he is that good at age ten, when the ff did he start?? Either he somehow got incredibly awesome in like a year, or he was forced into drumming at an early age. I mean, when you are that good that young, it must mean that you started when you were like 5. Now, Im a drummer, and I know when I was five, I liked the drums, but i didn't play. I didn;t start til i was 14. MY rents wouldn't let me. Plus I had to pay for everything I did for my drum career. I took lessons for like what 6 months? to learn the basics, from there i taught myself. I'm 15 now, and i would say im pretty kick-ass.. Not as good as this kid, but im what im trying to say is, If you have the resourcses to get good stuff and good teachers(my teacher was a stupid, low income band player) and you give it enough time, you can become that good

    im 13 and can play blok rockin' beats from the chemincal brothers and i thuought i was amazing... until this talented kid friggen showed up. i mean DAMN his sticks are a friggen blur!

  • A problem

    Has anybody not noticed yet that the video is tracked? Whoever made it looped short segments of the kid playing (rolls, hi-hat beats) and tracked them all together. It's fairly seamless, but you can tell...

    That was good considering he is only 10. I wouldnt say hes amazing though.

  • Good talent

    This kid has some good talent for his age...keep it up! TOny royster jr video would give this kid some good ideas...

    as for best drummer, hard to say....with death metal drummers who can pull off a buddy rich move (Gravity roll), its hard to determine who is more skilled...all depends on how well they match their music and their creativity

  • timing

    i dont hear this kid keepign any timing what so ever. there no way any band could play along with that random solo S**t serioulsy its impresive tha thes 10 but that solo had little rythem and didnt seem very smooth to me. hes better then me, bu ti would lay off teh damn snare kid

    • Timing

      He did keep good timing all the way through and that was a SOLO. In a Solo most of the time the band doesn't play so its a freeform improve from the drummer.

    • I totaly agree

      I'm 14 and Ive got a 5 piece and IMHO i think ok and I can keep a solid beat. the kid is amazin ill giv him tht. Heres a tip kid, try reapeatin a simple beat and then like a 4 second fill. Thats all thats needed usally.

  • a little suggestion

    kid, concentrate on using finger technique. this will give a better precision, speed and endurance to your playing. of course your fingers are not yet fully grown up so don't rush instead have time on practicing ambidexterity on your set. check out for simon phillips. he's a total ambidextrous drummer. he's also one of the major influences of your beloved mike portnoy. enjoy first the rudiments, ok!!!

  • mike portnoy influence

    this kid is strongly influenced by mike portnoy. he got one of his verses from the song of dream theater, 6:00 and some fill ins that i saw from mike portnoy but a faster version and a much more aggressive one. this kiddo is not a usual 4/4 type of drummer. keep on bangin man!!!

      i wouldn't say musical genius. musically talented. now if he was a music composer playing the instruments.. then he'd be a musical genius. he's still good as hells on drums though. better than i am and his set is nice.

    been playin drums most my life, and that kid isnt about music. all he does is try to show off. he didnt even play the tempo that he counted off. and, it wus pretty much that same pattern on the toms. i gotta admit, that is a nice set.

  • ehhh....

    its cool that he is young and playing but he is a superficial drummer... all he does is fast stuff... but his grooves arnt good at all and most of them come from portnoy so its really not that good and just cause he is young doesnt make it so awesome that he is good

    • What you are talking about...

      Comes with time and actually playing with a band.
      (I've been in funk and jazz bands for a while now)
      You have to admit the kid's got technique, In a few years he'll calm down and learn to groove for real.
      Anyone who is a serious musician will admit his level is pretty amazing for his age.
      and yes I can see Portnoy and Weckl but what the hell Didn't all of us begin immitating and then innovating?
      That's just the way it is.
