I count quintuplets as “One - e - Anika” because of her. Such a beast.

[@calebfudrums]

😂 thanks, iv been looking for an upgrade from “Hip -po -pot- ah- mus” for the longest time

[@RyanxDunn]

That's actually awesome haha

[@eltonester6531]

May just have to steal that, so much more smoother than the normal counting

[@MeowfaceMusic]

“one - e - An - i - ka” “e - An - i - ka - one” "An - i - ka - one - e" "i - ka - one - e - An" "ka - one - e - An - i" 😁

[@chrish1993]

love her and love her style

[@sabsabsabsabs]

i am not a drummer but i always watch her tuplet lessons and try to adapt her exercises to the keys. this is a drummer that understands polyrhythm at a spiritual level

[@68caribou]

:: Everything little thing she does is magic!!!! :) ::

[@absolute_kq]

I am a simple man. I see Jacob Collier, I like

[@JonathanHolt1988]

Λbsolute_KQ I am a simple man...I see Anika Nilles, I like.

[@Pakaea]

“Everything she does just turns me on...”. Haha

[@jumpinjojo]

68caribou That could be the title to a song.

[@dr.liljay2874]

Λbsolute_KQ the police???

[@bebobalula]

Dark and hot chocolate! No wonder Jeff Beck has asked her to join his spring/summer tour this year 🥁♥️🌹

[@drums549]

Anika is the best she's getting better and beterrrrr

[@guessundheit6494]

Absolutely staggering. And I grew up listening to the best of Prog Rock and Jazz drummers. She's taking it several steps further. Bill Bruford was seen crying in the backroom.

[@kenp.5685]

Anika, I have said it before, you never cease to amaze me. This was just an incredible example of your skill. You have truly been blessed.

[@ofermashiach4519]

Surgical precision. That was smokin'!

[@brianbonifacio7536]

Wow. So many groove changes are nothing sounds rushed or dragged. Perfect flow.

[@AlcatrazCD]

Wow 🤗 👍👍👍

[@albertofalzoi1541]

once again, she is absolutely phenomenal ❤

[@kennyvaughn5110]

OK all you know it all drummers out there. Enjoy this beautiful soul for what she brings to the table. Stop trying to compare every great player to the next. Anika is simply Anika. Her talents speak for her so do yourself a favor and enjoy it!!!

[@moichido100]

anika nilles, you are once in a lifetime, period

[@ianmclean5541]

Anika is already a drumming legend. Not only can she play mind boggling rhythms fluently through a dizzying arrangement of time signatures, but she does so with amazing feel.

[@Yann-nd9qj]

Ha anika ! Vous et votre batterie ne faites qu'une, très grande artiste la passion de la musique et de l'instrument bravo maestro vous êtes tout la haut avec les quelques génies de la batterie magnifique

[@julienchampagne4461]

She’s having so much fun. Amazing talent. :)

[@jithuys]

Wow.....😱😱😱😱

[@SinnGread]

so many goosebump moments in this tune

[@rickfry8999]

Effortless! If I did something that rigorous in a jacket, I'd look like a newborn kitten. Great job!

[@daniel_alan_music6583]

😂

[@emiypooky1851]

Y would one dislike a show of such an amazing talent in a blessed woman like Anika. maybe they can't do what she can do or has done....they know best in their hearts. This is a Masterpiece.

[@RAFAELSANTOSSALMO23]

[@nhathaodrums]

Love it! 😍😍

[@MichaelBuchzik]

Allein der Abspann verdient nen extra Daumen ;-)

[@Narstrand6]

Anikas playing is a combination of playing drums and solving a horrible math problem. It's so complex, that even though I've been playing music for 20 years, I still just give up trying to figure out what she's doing after the first 30 seconds :P Incredible talent.

[@MeowfaceMusic]

And how refreshing it is for us players to simply enjoy the moment instead of trying to dissect it. With such complex unfollowableness, we are gifted the opportunity to zoom out and away from our compulsion to analyze and simply luxuriate inside its intended experience.

[@FrankPCarpi]

Like I was trying to figure out what count she was doing, but I got lost fast.

[@FrankPCarpi]

@@MeowfaceMusic I get it, but I would love to play along with a good idea of the time signatures, but I will just have to play it by feel, and enjoy the heck out of it!!!

[@toyotaco21]

LOL ... very well said ........ and I bet every single time she plays the same music/composition/song ... she'd hit the same exact notes ... without missing a single note.

[@impulseproman]

Quantum physical musical

[@EnochGilbert]

wow wow wow wow wow....👏

[@brumont7241]

Unique style, perfect technique, power and subtlety. Just beautiful to watch. Please everyone, stop pointing out that she's so good for a woman. She's one the best. Period.

[@maebeachmas1189]

Zappa would have had kidnapped her for let her play in his band.

She is great for a woman

[@tsunchoo]

I think it's only you mentioning that

[@brumont7241]

@@tsunchoo Well, I can assure you that I'v seen a lot of that kinda of comment about her gender, but not for that specific video to be honest.
