[@AaronStechauner]

Hope you all enjoy! Stay tuned with my personal channel for more videos coming soon 🥁☕️

[@AquaAnim]

Aaron Stechauner Hey Aaron, did you sample your kick for the triggers?

[@AlexanderPryakhin]

Subbed!!! awesome foot control!!!)

[@AaronStechauner]

Hmm, those two are sort of the same thing in terms of your question. The kick drum is triggered, and the triggered tone is a sample. Hope this helps :)

[@adammtroutman]

Aaron Stechauner he's asking where the sample came from though

[@mildsilence]

So stoked to see you guys touring with entheos. Will definitely be making out to that show in houston... if we come back from the damn hurricane ok.

[@AndrasLOHF]

Probably one the best uses of a small kit in this style of music I've ever seen. Listening to album you'd think this was a much larger kit given the style of music played.

[@AaronStechauner]

Gotta make something small sound huge!

[@BrazilianImperialist]

It is not about site, but technique

[@elij4hdrums]

those alternating blast beats look so hard to do lol

[@AaronStechauner]

Super simple when you get them down!

[@zb695]

It's basically just paradiddles with both hands accenting on the quarternotes, one on the cymbal, one on the snare. Then the hands are switching places after the second eighth-note of each quarter basically.

[@felixgarstka]

@@AaronStechauner haha good one

[@user-id2dx4qd6j]

Cheesus Crust wait it’s actually that easy?

[@highpsi7463]

Well they look impressive as fuck! Cant get enough of watching them!

[@jdc_2000]

Love how you can tell its different while at the same time you can hear the original formula (as used for previous albums) like this song has more Embryonic qualities and a song like Parallel Shift has alot of Dingir qualities, and Inadequate with both Lugal and Embryonic qualities prevailing

[@AaronStechauner]

Thanks! The idea was to continue our sound on with its own natural progression.

[@lordtherion6876]

by the face of aaron, I can tell he probably was abducted by lucas mann and forced to play this way

[@timotheearondel4804]

How can 12 people dislike that performance ? Fucking haters..

[@Menoetius.]

Oh, the perks of being subscribed to the vic firth channel.

[@SebStorm]

Oh the perks of watching a cliche drummer with no finesse or groove

[@KevinCorkran]

"no finesse or groove" as he flawlessly plays heel-toe on some old school Eliminator pedals. don't try to discredit other players just cause you might not like the style of music.

[@TheShadowMilitia]

sesto Guarantee Aaron can play grooves. It just doesn't fit well with technical Death Metal

[@AaronStechauner]

Finesse includes being able to compliment whichever style of music you're playing! I've gotta play blast beats and double bass if I'm playing for a death metal band :)

[@gagehenning8432]

Aaron Stechauner A-fuckin-men to that. I must say, you're the reason I listen to RoS, because your speed and technique is fuckin flawless.

[@solame10101]

Anyway to get the songs instrumental? Dont get me wrong, i love the vocals but i think some friends would be easier to introduce that way.

[@SoloSoviet]

solame10101 You Can Maybe Download These Songs Directly From KZbin And Create A Burned Cd Of These Drumcovers That Way.

[@BigJ0]

Why not show them an instrumental song then? The heavens have fallen, or Utopia, perhaps? The Macrocosm, even?

[@jojo2o2]

Lmao the pain on his face.

[@AaronStechauner]

I have no control lol

[@JayCeeIsOutrageous]

good shit by Vic Firth cosigning this

[@bignose140]

Holy double kicker Batman!

[@Datdudestone]

The cymbals look so easy and smooth to cut through

[@mrbtapir]

Aaron how often do you break cymbals?

[@AaronStechauner]

Not super frequently, I'd say the average amount for someone who tours/records heavily. Why?

[@commit123]

good friends with the drummer of Aethere and you're wearing their shirt, fucking sick

[@dylanforrester3720]

Aaron Stechauner would you say Meinl Cymbals are the most durable you've ever had?

[@AaronStechauner]

Yup, they're awesome!

[@coreywilson1192]

FUCKING BEAST BRO .... keep it up monster

[@loljololjo5315]

Best drummer in the scene. Lol chris turner couldnt touch your shit.

[@nono-lb2bz]

Best off the album

[@SurShuru]

The perfect blend of speed, versatility and power AND ON A SMALL KIT! This is why people should follow his example and not people like Terry Bozzio who has 40 cymbals and 20 toms and uses maybe 5 of each. Use the most of a little and don’t compensate with too much.

[@Shadow0fd3ath24]

i love how fast he switches snare hand and stays in beat and how fluid and smooth his feet look

[@grxygxds]

More Cowbell!

[@felicienpostigo8248]

nice to show to everyone that you don"t need a big set with 100 cymbal to be monstruous in extrem metal. Little set but lot of technics, i like the Aaron's drumming style

[@tricksonafixed]

I fucking love you man, sweating your ass off just to cover these dope ass tracks is very much appreciated it!!! Tell your boys to do some Guitar Play Throughs for us instrumentation cats...

[@DFDBEAST]

Michael rappaport kills

[@thejbo777]

Why does his sticks look so long?

[@thesilph]

cause they friggin are! if you have seen the regular american classic 5B, these are over 2.5cm longer. longest sticks in the american classic line

[@vibes6326]

he uses the metal sticks, which i think are the 2nd biggest ones they make, sometimes he use EC2's which are even more ridiculous

[@AaronStechauner]

Vic Firth CM's!

[@shilohhollow9568]

He uses corpmasters

[@drumyourfaceoff]

That's what she said.

[@pdorrest79]

Nick Swardson got them moves.

[@briannorton8747]

Perry Dorrestein that's hilarious!

[@MrAnarchy26]

megan said," No". All sassy like. 3 snaps and a wave.

[@thelegendarybovice]

Also kind of looks like Michael Rappaport with some of the faces he makes.

[@stonythedrummer]

I still won't forget when I saw you back at 89th in Oklahoma. Thought you were gonna have a huge fucking set lol

[@plandc5]

I bet he could knock someone out with one kick idk how you manage to play that fast for a whole set without your legs falling off 😂

[@ChrisJenkinsDrums]

Unbelievably tight playing. Killer foot work!

[@felixgarstka]

guys pay attention this is what perfection looks like

[@brozovamart]

Iam not rly into this kind of music. But i love Aarons drumming so much

[@AaronStechauner]

Martina Brožová

[@SethFixesStuff]

Is that a vocal mic on the snare?

[@greasybastard7209]

Looks like it lol

[@nicrune007]

The tabs for this must be like 1gb size O_o

[@wasillapicazo3310]

You are awesome..thank u for sharing awesome drumming.\,,/.

[@gustavoembarcadero2939]

Amazing!!!! ... what snare model.is it????

[@Arthurledur]

Nice run \m/

[@doofcon]

what are you kicking into with the left foot?

[@MaitreduMal]

This is some good sheeeet

[@Nomad_OG]

idk why this song reminds me of megaman... at certain parts

[@Nick-xg8ly]

Probably one of the most creative metal drummers out there tbh

[@Chemical_x-z5t]

Better than megadeth and Metallica

[@scottyskills8168]

Pardon my ignorance but what is that box at your left foot?

[@AaronStechauner]

Keeping the pedal from sliding lol

[@estebanjordantoledocaldero3400]

the best playthrought of all the album. for all of us

[@enzomorales9001]

Drum class plish xD bro ay love yoy

[@novoice9286]

3:48 ...i dont...i dont get it. how can one do a switch blast beat so fast

[@AaronStechauner]

Cheat!

[@КтомолодецЯмолодец-ь5ц]

Что у него с ногами!!!????)))

[@japaobatera4476]

Muito toooop brother!👍🇧🇷👏

[@geogeo2551]

Aaron ... awesome bro I'm amazed !

[@BdogMusic6.2]

I love aethere

[@AaronStechauner]

Me too!

[@tylerlaugh5992]

I've decided Aaron stechauner is not human

[@greasybastard7209]

He's a fucking alien

[@klausherbert3040]

Good video! But the snare sound sucks for me

[@AaronStechauner]

:( Lol to each their own!

[@zacharywilliams4569]

1:11 WTF man. Godly

[@АлександрГематагин-я9г]

Класс! :) жаль у нас нет школы, где учат на ударных...а так самоучка уже 17 лет

[@Darkscream4]

sick af! love it

[@AaronStechauner]

Thanks!

[@Philtoid]

that was awesome

[@TakeFruits]

Nasty as heck

[@mr0scary]

Ugh that tom placement pisses me off.. Hes literally gotta extend his arm all the way forward just to hit the center of it.. but hey, as long as he's comfortable

[@AaronStechauner]

Just what I'm into!

[@prepperandson1399]

Madmam

[@VisouTIS]

god

[@peterd5843]

unexpecteded

[@AaronStechauner]

Hopefully pleasantly!

[@MrAnarchy26]

How are you getting the 32nd notes with the feet? It doesn't look at all like your stroking them out

[@niukau]

MrAnarchy26 Heeltoe techinque

[@AaronStechauner]

Double stroked make the beaters bounce.

[@MrAnarchy26]

Aaron Stechauner I figure that had to be it. But how are you getting the second note of each double stroke the same volume and strength? Triggers, presume.

[@gagehenning8432]

MrAnarchy26 They are. It's not cheating though, he's still actually playing it at that speed, the trigger just boosts the dynamic of the impact. It's impossible to have the hard of a dynamic impact while doing 32nds at that speed.

[@MrAnarchy26]

I wasn't saying it was cheat. I just never considered this technique.

[@jared19baker]

Superb work!

[@AD4MRick]

Sweet. R

[@riversamek5161]

Aaron Stechauner what pedals and what side of the mallets do you use?

[@AaronStechauner]

In this video I'm using Eliminators with the plastic side of the beater. I have however switched over to Iron Cobras!

[@CamDrums]

Aaron Stechauner i want them iron cobras too

[@leandrocarpine]

Fake double bass

[@buckeyeburl0162]

Leandro Augusto Carpine what the fuck are you saying

[@MusaTariq25]

Leandro Augusto Carpine it isn't fake, he's using the double stroke technique

[@Hunter-ic3nf]

triggers yes

[@frankseparator]

Never heard of the heal toe technique? Just look for Ben harclerode of Whitechapel or Andrew Baird of Fallujah to name two examples 😉

[@AaronStechauner]

Double strokes! Simply making the beater bounce with every strike.
