[@anykmusic]

Hey guys! You always make me happy when I realize that you're enjoying the videos! Thanks so much for just being awesome and for always coming back to my channel! I'm totally looking forward to play all that stuff live with my band this year! Hopefully we'll meet in your country live on stage! Kisses - anika

[@ChipsNeeson]

Come to Australia!

[@danielschroder6678]

You're really evolving like crazy, muscially. I don't really like your current drum setup compared to some previous ones, but it certainly fits the song beautifully. Super clean and powerful playing, and a really funny ending of the video (I think I might steal that idea some day).

[@evergreengunnut1621]

Her Mapex sound a ton better; IMO.

[@YouthDrummer]

Really doubt you will come to Trinidad. But if you do I can organize a drum clinic for you.

[@tyubacka]

Anika Nilles This is my favorite video of yours. I love the break down parts. It's great to see how you sit in the pocket of the groove and serve the song, then bust out some killer fills and funky chops. Inspiring! God bless

[@sirosvaziri]

Everything about this was enjoyable. From the song itself to the lights, visuals, production in general and of course, the drumming. Anika is on another level. Congrats on releasing your album!

[@anykmusic]

Siros! :-)

[@nacho2003_]

AnikaNiles no hablo mucho speak Inglish I Love HAHAHA Bye

[@revelationlimijaya]

Yuppp Dude @Siros Varizi

[@vonnex1151]

my goodness my favorite drummers is here 😍

[@blanchertthomas3640]

​@@anykmusic YOU ARE THE MOST GREAT , DYNAMIC , And The BEST DRUMMER . ASTONISHINGLY BEAUTIFUL !!!!?❤️🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹❗👍👍⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

[@DrumeoOfficial]

Stellar job! See you soon!

[@Lukas-kh5gu]

haven't clicked on a vid as fast in a while - i am dead serious. i have such a huge crush on her. See you tomorrow via Drumeo, Anika! Oh and congrats signing with Tama!

[@maciekgonet]

Well, it would be awkward for you if she replied to your comment, wouldn't it? :D

[@Lukas-kh5gu]

wasn't meant in that regard

[@camu123789]

Lukas T me too man, me too...

[@evergreengunnut1621]

That's hilarious. So many idiots on these comment threads. These guys should get out and attempt actual interaction with an actual woman.

[@tomgadd]

Mensch Meier ...i think her style is very unique. she puts every vid fresh ideas out. btw she is playing music instead of making artistry in solo playing. thats much more enjoyable for me. her playing is very relaxed groovin' very musical and top notch technically. i don' t know much other male drummers out here with that style and pocket. ...artistry drummers yes.

[@minimal49]

I have no words to describe how much I enjoy her drumming. Inmensely talented!

[@AdamTuminaro]

Those Tamas sound SO dope. And the modulation at 2:40 was neck-breaking. 😵 Amazing as always Anika!

[@Hi-uk5td]

hey Adam

[@KingTabor]

Great! The ending with the staff was precious!

[@DrummerDanVa]

It is nice to listen to a top notch drummer playing complex rhythms that is music and doesn't sound like exercising. Anika - your approach is so unique, fresh, and wonderful. And I am amazed what you can do with a single bass drum pedal. I am always interested in what you will come up with next. I can only say you are one badass drummer! And very cool at the end where almost everyone involved in this project took a turn at your drum kit.

[@exx3faith]

Perfect!!!! 2:40 fun and very dynamic moment. I follow you from Wild Boy and now he became a "mister", you're amazing, congratulations !!!!

[@eucabusas]

BEAUTIFUL SMILE. Show em on all your drum videos. :D

[@eucabusas]

@john crichton lol didn't notice that :P

[@Sunkenballs12]

Mark Eurenz Cabusas I'm sure her reading here coments makes her extremely uncomfortable and and unappreciated.

[@JohnCrichton]

Lane Jones meh, bet she thinks male drummers are hot other females if she's into them

[@Sunkenballs12]

John Crichton I think she's a bit more mature than that,at least she seems like it

[@DavidBaumgarner]

she repeats that at 3:53, i dont think it was a mistake. I just think shes having fun. :D

[@Sonatarium]

I cried the first time I listened to this song. I felt her pain through her playing.

[@Peters518]

Your style unique .. how You touches ones groove-senses and happines inside!! Thanks Anika!! Peet former drummer now mostly guitar though

[@framewraith9977]

That double stroke on the hi-hat groove is amazing! Your toms setup is really good, I'm gonna' use it from now on. BTW loved the drumming!

[@mariojr]

2:08 Wow, WoW, WOOOOOWWWWWW! Badass! 3:37 "Uops..." Hahahahaha! Nice video end, Nilles! :3

I loved it! You're one of my top favorite drummers! The drums sound great! So does this mean you're with Tama now?

[@Drummer12ify]

yea

[@65Drums]

That snare is so deep sounding. Love the song, first saw you play it on drumeo

[@TheKays]

AMAZING 🤘❤

[@t3hgir]

always impressed by the groove you manage to develop in songs. So deep!

[@callumarmitage4828]

This song is pure gold! Your execution was phenomenal and the way you light up when you nail a fill make me fall in love with drums again. Thank you!

[@mrreality1187]

Your musical approach is so fresh and inspiring congratulations on this album. Some your tracks somehow always seem to remind me of Toto. You would be great in band come to think of it.

[@TheRyanelittlefield]

The little subdivisions around the 2:30 mark, unggghhhh, so tasteful. Very well done.

[@mituleitedrumsleite9659]

Anika Nilles.... Princess of the ghost notes .... \ 0 / takes the musical notes to perfection on her drums. Beautifully perfect.

[@m4ppel]

Thanks for reminding me that the album is out! edit: The album is great. "One Ride One Life" is my favourite track so far, since it has that nice John Mayer vibe to it. Too bad that there is no LP version of the album so far.

[@nelrod0828]

Amazing video. I loved the entire video. I really enjoyed thr last segment having everybody playing that was so unique!! super fan!!

[@RodrigoRaez]

Anika Nilles is a true drumming inspiration and there's something so appealing about this Pikalar album. I think she's the image of the true modern drummer.

[@TeruTeruBoz]

YES! TAMA YES! I love this tune!!!

[@bretkindell6887]

saw you with Jeff beck in houston last Sept. it was the top live experience I've seen in my 62 years. your set up is breath taking and your stamina is way higher than I imagined. freakin 👏 amazing.

[@kirjian]

Raw skill. Simply amazing.

[@BBT609]

that 720p50 is INSANE on my eyes. you can see the cymbals flutter after being struck.......

[@alexandrastancu1744]

Another girl who loves the drums❤️I feel you all,my sisters❤️

[@AudioheavenDenmark]

is it me or didn't the mapex drums sounded a ton better??? NOT hating on tama, but they sound dull and flat compared to the mapex... great music.

[@pirocenter]

Extremamente emocional, quiálteras precisamente colocadas! Parabéns Anika !!! (hail from Brazil)

[@renibatera90]

Hello, Anika! I am Brazilian and I live here in Brazil. I've been following your work since I "discovered" your work here on KZbin. Your feelings in the songs are wonderful. Congratulations!

[@ChrisTompkins-Music-And-Gear]

Love your music and your drumming. I am very sad to see your no longer playing Mapex.

[@jumpinjojo]

Chris Tompkins Why? Do you have stock in the company?

[@ChrisTompkins-Music-And-Gear]

Because I play and LOVE Mapex drums. I was happy to see such a killer drummer playing the same drums that I play.

[@larrytate1657]

Yeah I liked her with mapex too. Her black panther kit sounded phenomenal and a lil better than this one here imo. However she still sounds great no matter which drums she plays. Maybe she will get a star kit soon though from Tama and then we see. This wasn't the star here right?

[@sevenfacecomplex]

Chris Tompkins mapex sucks

[@ChrisTompkins-Music-And-Gear]

Are you sure? Have you ever played a Mapex Black Panther Kit? Because I have personally owned Tama, Yamaha, Pearl, Slingerland, Ludwig and Remo drumkits over the past 30 years. The Mapex have been more consistent in sound and tuning than all of the kits I've owned.

[@KPIronMaidenDrummer]

The timing of the piano trill and her eyes at 0:14..... Beautiful as always, both her playing and her.

[@juancastillo5527]

What a Drummer! She is beyond the scope! Good Job Anika!

[@SlayerJab0r]

such a damn tight way of handling the drum set. and those fills are nasty! Anika, you rock!

[@michellaaw7690]

My dad play this song in our car before we are going somewhere.

[@geoffreygeoffrey4745]

Hi Anika, you're wearing that adidas hi-cut sneakers since 2014! love it...and your grooves are very inspirational. - Love from the Philippines :)

[@TheFearedPhantom]

0:14 - 0:16 Anika staring into my soul.

[@dxb8086]

Not really, it's the camera...

[@JohnNugroho]

oh gosh..now i feel what you feel

[@PaulTimotejLizardo]

TheFearedPhantom r

[@lexeykuzmintsev2410]

LOL ))))

[@danlittle1756]

More than anything you look like you are having fun, and that is what music should always be about.

[@rorycamp7873]

absolutely speechless...

[@martinhall735]

Love that deep earthy sound from the kit, just as if it has come from nature. Amazing Playing, straight on the groove. Great time changes. Pure perfection. Martin H 😎.

[@Lukas-kh5gu]

no more Mapex Falcon Bass Pedal? ;/ if anything i love from Mapex it's that very bass drum pedal.

[@kjemradio]

When a company like Tama offers an endorsement it is something one does not turn away from. Mike Portnoy did the same thing. He started with Tama (not endorsed), but changed to Mapex (endorsed), but came back to Tama (endorsed).

[@ryana6961]

It's all about who supports you most. Matt Halpern from Periphery endorses Mapex because they give him all the support he needs.

[@natemoone1]

Blegh, Mapex pedals are the worst. If Tama endorses you, you latch onto Iron Cobra's/Speed Cobra's for life. You'd be a fool to choose any Mapex pedal over a Speed Cobra.

[@stevel2309]

You'd be a fool to assume that everyone's preferences are the same.

[@Lukas-kh5gu]

have you ever tested the mapex falcon pedal? highly doubt it.

[@Pure_KodiakWILD_Power]

pikala finally down'oaded from amazon this morning. looking forward to hearing it on the system in my truck. and i'm seeing the credits for this video as i type 😅 brilliant.

[@CarlosDaniel-cz5oj]

you rock,you rocked!

[@JesseStevenPollom]

That break at 2:40, holy fuck. Incredible drumming and production.

[@francosaavedra3304]

hermooooosoo! x fin una "baterista" que transmite su corazon en cada Golpe!!!!

[@BluesRockerSoul]

Just discovered Anika and she is pure magic! Hope to see the live act in Hungary soon! Cheers! :)

[@kjemradio]

Totally dig this tune Anika! Grooves, syncopations, and absolute soul! Nicely done!!!! Also love the various drummers you brought in to give the song a try.

[@vmdrums_]

This is amazing. I could watch a full-length movie of just this! Such tasteful playing Anika, and bravo to the team of producers, editors, and engineers that help you put all of this together! Congratulations on the album release! You're a huge inspiration!

[@joejv7324]

My fav song. Great play. Good luck always

[@andrewmccrow4229]

Wow, took me too long to enjoy this. Sorry. Perfection 🥰

[@avedisdrummer989]

what a killer tune! and wonderful drumming as always. that chorus is going to be stuck in my head all day, such a catchy hook for a fusion song. great job!!!

[@alessandrolomi7670]

CIAO ANIKA NILLES SEI BRAVISSIMA E BELLISSIMO BRANO CIAO CIAO

[@Fotosynthesis858]

Her style is so clean & crisp. And she makes it look so effortless. She’s a natural for sure.👌🏾👍🏾👍🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾🙀

[@davidpardy]

Everything you release is well-written and well-orchestrated, and your playing is fantastic! It's getting so much harder to find drummers who stand out with a serious level of talent and with their own voice these days, but you've got it nailed :)

[@PadrinoRazor]

Is it magic? It's a great feeling watch your drum videos. I love it.

[@FrankXtreme76]

I just started drumming in a band with some friends. Anika is such a inspiration to continue practice and hopefully achive a quarter of her skill in the future! All her work is amazing!

[@timbrelle7723]

I don't know why - but I watch this one over and over again. It's got some kinda magic. Thank you Anika for putting in all the hard work!

[@Fire7777blade]

You are my favourite drummer. Look guys, how cool she is!

[@ericdravenX00X]

I have heard Anika for the first time on a drum review and reaction video.. And i really liked the Vibe of Anika's creations. I also find it difficult to stop watching once i begin.. Thanks Anika for making Great music u can always come back to....

[@anykmusic]

Thanks so much!!! 💚

[@ericdravenX00X]

@@anykmusic u are Very welcome..😁

[@tomgadd]

the hi-hat figure in the chorus is superb. overall very nice playing.

[@FritoBanditoMusicVideos]

What soul and groove and those cymbals Aye Chihuahua!!! Anika you are my favorite new artist everything you do is crisp and tasty!! Drum on!!

[@michaelcampbell1911]

That groove with the doubles on the hi hat is absolutely genius and is something I have been trying to learn. But she does it so clean and articulately. She is slowly becoming one of my fav Meinl and Tama artists.

[@funklover24]

Anika, why don't you play with Snarky Puppy? Wonderful band and the chemistry might be great. :)

[@1thess523]

Even since KZbin changed the way subscriptions work i guess I've missed a bunch of your videos! I'm glad i came across this one!

[@michaelsvoboda1944]

BEAUTIFUL,.....Good Job Anika :-)

[@gideontalent8214]

Anika Nilles you are Awesome👍

[@changchen09]

What a composition!!

[@Gordonafloat]

Well at least we both now play Tama and migrated from Mapex so something in common. Fantastic drumming. :-)

[@LesonDeson]

Amazing song. Why such a dark snare tone?

[@smilingdrum]

God Bless you Anika!!!!!! Your Discipline plus your Talent are very Inspiring! It's great that we have You Tube so great artists like yourself can share their gifts with the World.I wish you continued success.

[@dddavvv1]

Tama?? wow congrats! that's my main brand ^^ Any way, he song is awesome!

Absolutely amazing! Loved the song and the drumming. Best wishes from Finland. :)

[@cavedrumstudiocolincave1950]

Hi Anika, Your new song is Great and real inspiring to listen to. Also you can checkout all my drum covers at (colin cave drum covers) on youtube. I will be adding hundreds more including covering your great music. Thank you for this excellent music you have given all of us.

[@biowalebhaiyya]

Lovely ! Another Masterpiece ! You're Great ! Love your work and You Too !

[@rocketpost1]

Superb piece of music and astounding drums from Anika. I liked the ending with everyone having a go on the drums, not seen anything like that before. Thanks to Jeff Beck for introducing me to Anika's great talent.

[@anykmusic]

🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@34jazzman]

hey....your human ! I noticed a slight miss hit around 3:37... u even chuckled.. hard to tell with your hair long, are you using ear buds, and listening to a click??

[@scottskinner6602]

Nice to see when someone is having a good time playing. Something i would like to point out you can manage to flip hair out of way and not miss a beat. I don't have that problem. Wish I did though...Nice use of accents cymbals

[@Sunkenballs12]

This is the most amazing thing I've seen in my life litterally

[@niklassarkkinen2173]

This is just such an awesome piece of music and the amazing drumming makes the song really come alive. Absolutely love it!

[@serpentstudios7768]

Early! Pin dis plz since I use Meinl cymbals

[@juanisma7553]

realmente genial, muy genial

[@orientalejoji7500]

Hi, I listned this video 10 times today itself.. filled with perfection and good music and playing... reverts mind to my childhood..

[@jmvmusic0320]

Is it a 4/4 time sig but she somehow play it in odd countings? I know there's a part where she switches and play around between time sigs. but man. I must be imagining things HAHAHAHA

[@cavedrumstudiocolincave1950]

Hey Anika, you guys got to come and play in the San Francisco Bay Area at a place called Yoshis. Your music would rock that place and I really love your inspiring songs. Colin

[@069enoch]

Anika, you put a smile on my face every time... :) I feel nothing but joy for you and your music...Thank you...

[@robertoguimaraes2128]

Que linda, ela ajeita o cabelo e não perde o compasso. Continua ... cheia de charme!

[@writetovagelis1975]

Hey Anika . Great work as always...but this snare is almost dead. I really don't get this new thing with the detuned snares. Maybe i am growing old... Huge fan nonetheless

[@truefilm1556]

3:12 - Hammer! Nach den ersten Vierteltriolen (falls es solche sind) bin ich raus - und grinse nur vor Freude, weil Anika einem wieder einmal den Teppich unter den Füssen weggezogen hat. Butterweich und trotzdem kraftvoll. Perfekt auf dem letzten Schlag gelandet! Wie immer: Killer-Groove, super-originelle Ideen, volle Kontrolle und Hammer-Sound. Kann ich gar nicht genug davon bekommen!

[@dinnobeat3197]

yeaaaaaah I was really waiting for that!!! you're awesome, Anika!!!! quintuplets queen hauahauahah

[@matthiasbraun4747]

Hi Anika, top Song top Video...wie immer :-). Das Ende hat mir besonders gut gefallen dass die anderen auch mal spielen durften ;-). LG Matze

[@Fabri1974ful]

Great video!!! Anika, you re the best female drummer. I love your technique, your style, your groove, EVERYTHING!!! saludos from Argentina. We wait for any clinic an d show in South America. Bye!!! Fabricio

[@fookingsog]

Absolutely Loving Every Second of this Auditory Eargasm!!! Epic Sound on my Samsung S20 FE phone with Dolby Atmos and °SOUND° Beautifier for Android, Using "Dirty Loops" Custom Preset that I tweaked!!! Awesome Sound!!!😁👍🏻

[@louistotalcontrol]

Fantastic, Anika - the Tama Starclassic is looking & sounding lush!

[@rusher34]

I think I could recognize your style with any song. Great work of composition. I had a good time watching the video
