[@anjinhufera]

0:46, OMG! Great work! You inspire people!

[@samrag85]

That roll at 00:48 seconds asdrummer2008 ! Insane! Thanks for putting this up! Was waiting patiently :p

[@Kzard47]

Skyharbor is a lucky band to have you!

[@GabrielMorelliC]

Awesome playing! You inspire me dude! And an "evolution" or "miracle" play through would be cool too!

[@asdrummer2008]

Thanks a lot for the kind words! Evolution should be coming soon!

[@SlimCharles17]

asdrummer2008 Miracle would be so great in the future. You are incredible Anup!!!!

[@cabelinho97]

+Gabriel Morelli PLAY THROUGH MIRACLE AND IDLE MINDS !!!

[@ad5621]

Guiding Lights is such a classy, beautiful album. I love watching these play throughs and Anup, to 'see' the feel I hear in these songs:) Looking forward to New Devil, Miracle, Allure., oh just all of them thanks!

[@bhattsahil89]

I really came hoping youtube would have a "Anup Sastry Play Through" for Halogen and oh howwwww excited I am!!

[@thejonfedor]

This brought me so much joy.

[@midnighthymn]

Impeccable!

[@aureliomoreira3860]

Intervals + Skyharbor = perfection!

[@opheluna]

I've watched this so many times. And I believe that if given the chance to play on a drum set. I just might be able to.... embarrass myself. :)

[@AnanthaKrishna]

that fill at 0:49... hits me every single time!! and I absolutely dig 3:25 onwards!! big fan! :D

[@HinnerkHesse]

Finally someone using these dark cymbals! Love them.

[@Erethism]

It's a pleasure to watch you play as always, Anup! You're a beast! Great work on the video and mixing, too.

[@faaarrrh]

Kit always sounds incredible. Love your videos. You are an inspiration!

[@geefunkera3000]

I totally understand what you said regarding having an emotional connection with these songs, gives me "the feels" every time. All the best for the future. :)

[@JesseMootrey]

those crashes sound amazing♡ amazing work as usual, deff one of the best drummers out there imo.

[@BurnTheNuance]

I know! They still have enough bite to cut through unlike some of their dry models. Might even work for some heavy stuff (sadly I am in a deathcore band, haha).

[@asdrummer2008]

BurnThePope0514 Thanks a lot! Yea Im really loving how these cymbals track!!!

[@michaelantoch3098]

asdrummer2008 You have so much emotion in your playing! Those grooves build so well on themselves. Can't wait for more videos!

[@NickThe5ticks]

Absolutely incredible. I'm a big fan. I'll be in the front row for any gigs in Sydney. Really appreciate your music - thanks!

[@omnipotentok6845]

Anup, you're work is always so damn good. Love listening to you play. Cheers!

[@MilesMorrisDrums]

Yessss!!! Awsome job Anup!!!

[@tonybouma6745]

Great playing, good song, visually interesting technique, excellent sounding gear...this video is all "win", Anup!

[@s3fron]

amazing man! seriously look forward to your new play alongs.

[@rmsnooky]

You sir amaze me. You're incredibly skilled... And for those reading this comment if you haven't listened to this stoned... Your not listening... Trust me I'm a doctor

[@indietjafs4509]

those crashes sound really freaking good!

[@maxstevanus28]

Dude!! You're awesome. I freakin love your drumming on this song.

[@FedericoStoraiDrums]

simply amazing.

[@ShauryaArora94]

Such feel, never seen. You made my day!

[@drummingzombies]

Dude, you absolutely killed it!

[@arturkaiumov132]

Geez, this kick sound is awesome!

[@Mattchudon]

I've been on the fence about those crashes for a while now, but now that I've seen this, I may seriously consider picking up a couple. If I remember correctly, they're not that expensive, which is a plus. Awesome job as always, man!

[@asdrummer2008]

Thanks a lot! Yea the cymbals are relatively affordable compared to some of the other series Meinl offers. I was really impressed with how these tracked, and I plan to use them much more often!

[@W4CHHUNDi]

I prefer your playtrough version more than the original version. I like the loud drum sounds :) Just awsome! :3

[@bulbulbrahma]

Wow, everyone is so good together

[@javiejaynew4093]

I could watch that last part over and over, those licks were just to tasty!!

[@ArmpitResidue]

enjoy hearing you groove

[@kevingoren]

Love it!

[@baliaka_drums]

The linear groove on 0:52 is so tasty 🤘🏽

[@giacomodallavalle1668]

i love your style, u are an inspiration for me

[@gabrielgomer]

I feel smooth from just watching you dude...

[@AdrenLnFueledScholar]

Absolutely astounding performance through and through! I find so much joy and inspiration watching you play!! Where did you begin to learn your fundamentals and techniques! I love your precision and attack while your at the helm of your kit!!!

[@rang3go]

Perfect!

[@juniiii4622]

Damn, love that snare. I've been eyeing these crashes out too, I havn't been able to give them a go in person but damn they sound sexy.

[@TitouanDebray]

The head of the floor tom to the left of the hi-hat shows how accurate Anup's hits are...

[@ShankulChavan]

Great as always!! Dude may I ask how do you tune your drum kit? Kick,Snare,toms. You tune them on any specific notes if yes what are they? Or can you make a demo video showing how you tune a kit? That'd be helpful to all the drummers out there. :) Regards.

[@raoulinho82]

I'm inspired! Great playing! As for a metal musician I do like your own stuff more but still loving it! :)

[@picwent]

Super clean playing man, digging it

[@asdrummer2008]

Thank you!

[@metalheadblues]

Can you ask Keshav to do some play throughs as well?!? Haha been listening to this album every day for the past year, its amazing.

[@resonantshadow]

Thank You.

[@TheBonzobonzo]

[@asdrummer2008]

hahaha. Thanks a lot!!!!

[@ShankulChavan]

This is hell of a lot better tone wise than the previous one man!! :) The kick and snare is so thick I'd hear it all day. Still miss the top view angle though... Next song Guiding lights please. :D

[@asdrummer2008]

Thank you! Guiding Lights coming up soon for sure!

[@ShankulChavan]

Woohoo! :D Dude,try to have the top angle too if at all possible. Cheers \m/

[@ShankulChavan]

May I ask if this is your home studio? And If you're playing who tracks it on the other end?

[@matteobdrums]

So good, so fucking good, I just can't stop watching this video.

[@andrewmilbankdrums]

asdrummer2008 Have been thinking about getting a pair of custom dark crashes for some time, this video definitely confirms that I'll be picking some up soon :P

[@BurnTheNuance]

And unlike the dry models these puppies sing haha.

[@asdrummer2008]

BurnThePope0514 Glad the video was of help in that decision! Im a huge fan of these cymbals!!!

[@AlexandrosMav]

[@danmanistan]

[@DaFamily247]

ive been using zildjian for 24 years ..i just switched to meinl.. ive been using z custom and z3's these last few years.. are thes crashes you are using thinner or thicker? Dig the videos btw..we have the same set up lol!

[@paulrox177]

Freaken awesome man.

[@albonforbes]

Magnificient Now.Dheli been waiting too lonf for new material. Wheare is part two of…

[@davidgarwood5519]

Hey Anup, how are you using the AKG 414's? Are they room mics, or overheads? It's hard to see them in the videos.

[@Jorgelopezdrums]

SOLIDO!

[@SimonFicken]

Ooo those crashes sound good. Much cheaper too. Think you'll keep them as your main crashes?

[@asdrummer2008]

Glad you dig em! Yea I do plan on using these more often for sure!

[@Nevermind2004x]

How do you mix the snare like that!!?!?!? It sounds so good man!

[@discoveryzero2897]

He seems to generally process the drums quite hard. This is great for a modern sound in my opinion :) Use parallell compression, compression, and enveloper quite hard and you will get a heavy sound. Sweep with the EQ to remove pitches you dislike. For snare, around 300 is a frequency that makes it sound non optimal. Also, High pass filters on everything is good. Including on the kick drum. So use a slope at around 20-40hz to remove some of that nasty bass buildup from the insividual drums, and your mixes will sound alot cleaner :) But I definitely recommend using the enveloper alot. It's an amazing tool for drums.

[@discoveryzero2897]

Oh, and btw, using overdrive is very useful. Only for kick, toms and snare though. It's not good on overheads. Only EQ for those at most. Overdrive on the snare and kick will give the drums a much tighter sound, which is great for this kind of sound. In combination with the other things I mentioned, you can get a really nice sound. Just be careful not to overdo anything.

[@DJCizzle1]

Hey Anup, what size Vic Firths do you use?

[@Deathmond0890]

What series of Meinl is that black cymbals ??

[@inixi8ocelot]

which is better? 14" Byzance Brillinat Hihats. or 14" Byznance Traditional Hihats?

[@asdrummer2008]

I don't think you could go wrong with either. They both have respective applications, and I think its all preference when it comes down to it!

[@waveemann8857]

silver sif If it helps, the brilliants will be brighter and project a little bit much, whereas traditional ones will be a bit darker and have a slightly muted stick definition compared to the brilliants. I'd say if you're not sure where you fit musically or you want to cover as many bases as possible I'd go with traditional hats.

[@samplur1915]

you are so tight man !!!

[@MarcoFerlito]

Thanks for sharing, boss \m/

[@DoctorU613]

DAT FACEEEE!!!!! HAHA

[@jwdubz7]

DAT face.

[@Darkman24]

Awesome vid as is everyone you do. However this one more than others i feel like the bass drum sounds too over-processed. Not sure why it is standing out more in this video than others but it is, in my opinion, over powering your kit and does not sound good with this particular track. The playing is great however! Just though i would voice my opinion.
