A Hip Hop Drummer's First Time Hearing GREEN DAY

[@DrumbleOfficial]

We’ve got so much content backed up it’s ridiculous!! Trying to get them out as quick as possible. Now, any songs you wanna hear these drummers learn on the spot?🤔 Reading ALL inputs‼️

[@mhajanljami98]

We did foo fighters last week! Not saying which one tho…🤐👀

[@SeanTielemans]

Would You Be Impressed by Streetlight Manifesto. :) Be really cool if you did the bass and drum duo. Would definitely give a challenge to both of them!!

[@Thats_Helpful]

This is a tough one but ya'll should look at Coheed and Cambria as a source of material (like A favor house atlantic, or Welcome home), or something like YYZ or Limelight by Rush. They're both prog and could be a unique challenge for these talented lads while being well known enough to catch viewers

[@blackstonejimmy]

As soon as I see a cymbal as square as the one behind him, I know I'm about to hear something impressive. Only people who _really_ know what they're doing feel comfortable enough to start bringing goofy things like that into their kits.

[@rickdraws667]

My mind dont believe when someone of music industry says : i've never heard basket case or green day in 2024...

[@carlosfernandez3565]

same, close to impossible. I'm from Mexico and I've known this song for 30 years.

[@waltervsm]

I think that sometimes too, but tbf in other hand, if someone shows me a "big hip hop name", let's say big as green day on punk rock, I'll probably wouldn't know either, since I'm more into the rock style, ( I know very little about hip hop ). So I guess he "know" just like, heard on radio, but easily he turned to another station and forgot about it xD - At least, I guess is more like that

[@angrym0nkeysh0w]

Would be more believable if they played like any other song from Dookie. Because I can believe he doesn't know the song very well, and he likely never listens to Green Day, but I just don't buy that he's "never" heard this song before Other than that, great video

[@waltervsm]

@@angrym0nkeysh0w you have a very good point wich I agree, is hard to believe indeed hahaha, but dunno, just attempting to see both sides of the coin!

[@Accuratetranslationservices]

Same. Don't buy it. I can see someone not knowing who it's by and not really being familiar with the song, but they should at least just recognize the tune like "Oh yeah I've heard that before"... Like this is a guy in the music industry, not sure his age but he looks like he's in his 40s thereabouts -- so it's his generation's music, AND the song has been famous probably his entire professional career... appearing on the radio, movies and other media, getting played a lot across our society for 30 years now... Not buying it one bit.

[@billyburris2345]

Dude, I absolutely love how many of these folks are smiling the whole time. They are in stressful situations playing music they aren’t comfortable with, and are humble and great enough of musicians to have fun despite the uncomfortable situation! I love it!

[@recoil53]

Musicians usually aren't as tied to a genre like many fans are, so they are like to appreciate the skill. While this isn't exactly jamming, they can still learn new things. Like greatness appreciates greatness. If you follow sports and sports commentary, you know of retired players now on YT who say that modern players couldn't play back then. But look at the players who do that - they aren't Hall of Fame players. The ones who appreciate modern athletes? Usually the greats.

[@duffman9908]

@@recoil53 It doesn't even take being a great musician. I am extremely meh as a musician but once I picked up the bass guitar I started enjoying more music. It is always wild to see how clever musicians are when they craft songs.

[@user-ul4uz6vo9o]

That's a drummer. We just love playing.

[@recoil53]

@@duffman9908 True! Sure, I'm just saying that there is a greater tendency for those who aren't to put up these barriers that don't exist. Think back in high school to those policing what is good or bad music - people (back when I was young) listen mostly to the music of their social group. Whereas here they appreciate the choices and nuances the other musician made.

[@jasecorreia4021]

You're a wonderful drum buddy! 😎

[@WillRose3]

For those who enjoyed this I HIGHLY RECOMMEND listening to the whole Dookie album. One of the biggest albums of the 90s, one of the biggest pop punk albums of all time, and a drumming tour de force by Tré Cool.

[@markcromer4069]

I know so many people whose first time hearing Green Day was Wake Me Up When September Ends, and they think they're just a pop band. I'm glad Green Day finally got the money and fame they deserve, but many people have no idea about their previous work.

It's so cool that drumming seems to be something of a "universal language" among drummers, even across different genres. They all seem to be able to say "ok, I see what they're doing here..."

[@goldenageofdinosaurs7192]

As a drummer, it’s true. Even if I may not be able to replicate what a great drummer is doing, I still understand the basic framework of what’s going on & what they’re doing. Once you know the time signature, it (kinda) takes care of itself. The rest is up to the skill of the person playing the instrument. The great ones can take your breath away & you think, “never in a million years would I (or could I) have done that!”

[@gabcastel]

Estaba pensando lo mismo últimamente gracias por comentarlo

[@Kerosian1]

drumming is just playing with the infinite distance between 0 and 1. We all explore it a little differently, but theres a ton in common with most music.

[@zakk219]

It's cool to see how much the fills add to this song. Listening along to it when he was playing the first time was strange because it was all there but missing that little bit. Adding a bit of the fills in the second attempt immediately made it sound more fitting to me. I know it's simply because I've heard the song a ton but I found it interesting.

[@hospagalief]

I was like why is this guy getting the fills wrong?!??😂

[@Benjamin-pb6jo]

Tre’s drumming is just insane… his style is like no other

[@racealexander1660]

The fills on basket case on like no other. Makes song 3x better than it would be otherwise.

[@dougharrison385]

Ya'll, this man is one of the most genuinely "good" people I know. Not like we've hung out together, but all the interactions I've had with him have left me feeling better than I did before they happened. Make sense? The dude's a Godly man, and SUPER talented, as well. Add to that the fact he plays one of my favorite custom/semi-custom drum builders, it's no wonder I respect this man. Cool clip here. Great content on the channel. Big love up! 🦾🙏🏻🙏🏻☝🏻

[@dellcoc]

He looked like he had so much fun playing it the 2nd time. Nailed it all.

[@Jayphillips1988]

One half of my brain "HOW HAVE THEY NEVER HEARD THIS SONG?!?!?!?!?!" The other half of my brain "...What music have I been missing out on my whole life?????"

[@jawbone78]

Correct response! It's always shocking to me how many people can't accept that their culture, their music, isn't actually "universal". It's 100% possible to go through life, even in the 90s, without more than a passing familiarity with the idea of rock music.

[@joshuateter7418]

I love how he smiles the whole time and you can tell he just feels so good. Every time I hear this song I go right back to shredding waves in California.

[@napro4studios601]

They are from Argentina, the brand is called OchoCatorce. Amazing drum company.

[@jayess8714]

Dookie - an iconic album that inspired so many guitarists, bassists, lyricists, artists, actors, snarky angsty teenagers and of course drummers. 30 years this year, Green Day are kings ❤

[@jacknone1564]

Name one guitarist, bassist, lyricist, artist or actor or drummer that Green Day inspired. With proof, not just talking out of your ass. What a stupid comment. Selling a lot of albums doesn’t make it iconic. It’s mediocre bubble gum pop at best.

[@DewTheDo240]

That smile says a 1000 words on how much fun he was having

[@timandmonica]

If you weren't a drummer, you would still tell the performances apart by the joy and freedom in his 2nd try. Cool channel, good idea capitalizing on Drumeo's format.

[@CMSnyder80]

For starters...that kit has quite a happy color scheme! Now for the performance. The performance largely encapsulates the essence of the pop/punk genre. Tight, in-the-pocket groove with some experimenting in the musical transitions. Not stepping on the guitars or bass but using the silences of both to really impact the song. On a base level this was absolutely perfect for a first round shot (especially from a drummer not in the band/genre) where later added complexities finish the final product.

[@KasumovMedia]

Whats great is once he finds the feel, he really does match the original feel and the placements of the accents. Cool! Extra points for the kick drum floor tom

[@michaelmendoza2455]

what's really incredible to me is how many of the accents he already seemed to pick up from the drumless track, like when you learn a song's melody before its exact lyrics

[@Cookie-eq9rp]

He’s such a good drummer but when you see how other drummers play this song you can notice what kind of an artist Tre Cool is. He played exactly what the song needed and that’s awesome.

Crazy drum line, I loved it from the first time I heard it and when I saw the video, it blwe my mind . To this day, it's still fun to listen to it and watch the drummer play it, with the original high energy

[@jenniferm4985]

Core memory, hearing that song on the radio for the first time in 1994. They've been my favorite band ever since. Finally saw them live a couple weeks ago and the second they started playing it I was 11 years old hearing it for the first time all over again.

A few Song recommendations: BYOB - System of a Down Empty Walls - Serj Tankian Devil and I - Slipknot Du Hast - Rammstein Raise your Glass - Pink Bismark - Sabaton Killing in the Name - Rage Against the Machine When Worlds Collide - Powerman5000 The Phoenix - Fall Out Boy Na Na Na - My Chemical Romance (I kind of think it would be funny) First Date - Blink 182 Bat Country - Avenged Sevenfold Somebody Told Me - The Killers All Around Me - Flyleaf Indestructible - Disturbed

Is it a little thing that he nails the open high-hat in the intro? Love this video's entire style. I know a lot about Green Day but not a lot of hip-hop. These two have great vibes! Thank you!!

[@feerz]

This is awesome. It's amazing how much better is the second time, and I guess is more about the guy understanding the song better and giving it more feel, and just because he was trying to mimic the original version (fantastic punk drummer Tre Cool)

[@pukkoku]

I know you've said you've got quite the backlog of videos, but I just wanted to say that I don't mind y'all doing "simple" songs. I'm not a drummer, and my sense of rhythm is...questionable, if I'm being charitable. So, when someone comes in and plays along to an already busy track, it's difficult to pick out when they deviate from the OG. However, on a track like this, I have an easier time. At any rate, I'm excited to hear what you've got coming out in the future. Thanks for your content and highlighting such skilled musicians!

[@jensdroessler3575]

Great stuff! Solid first attempt! It‘s great what you do. All people need to come together with ALL kinds of music.
