[@jimwhite4270]

Bass player….Latino…..

[@lraugusto]

List of Brazilian artists Eloy mentioned, as the auto-generated subtitles didn't catch them all: * Elis Regina * Tom Jobim * Baden Powell (acoustic guitar) * (Heitor) Villa-Lobos (classical composer) * Djavan * Luiz Gonzaga (father of Baião genre) Drummers: * Milton Banana (played samba with João Gilberto) * Edison Machado * Lenílson Silva * Lauro Lellis * Aquiles Priester * Christiano Rocha * Giba Favery * Lilian Carmona * Vera Figueiredo * Carlos Bala * Paulo (Paulinho) Braga * Cuca Teixeira * Gabriel Bruce (new drummer) Eloy also mentioned Igor Cavalera and Jean Dolabella, the former Sepultura drummers. In addition to Baião, he also mentioned the Maracatu genre (from Recife, Pernambuco), and the Maxixe music style.

[@thenoisytrain]

Edison Machado is probably the father of Brazilian Jazz Drumming Wilson das Neves is worth to be mentioned too, one of the best Samba drummers. Used to play with Elis Regina

​@@ramironetto2797i both agree and disagree. Joey helped make Slipknot what they are today so for that he is a legend. Jay was always mediocre in my opinion and not the right fit for SK but got the gig because of his Dad I always felt, could be wrong but that's how it seemed. Eloy is a powerhouse and has some insane chops, poly rythm ability and groove that should make for some awesome new music.

Eloy is so versatile he could manage to play with Animals as Leaders, Foo Fighters, Vulfpeck, Slipknot and Sepultura with absolute ease.

[@pjgalligan]

Simultaneously!

[@nestortomaselli6372]

I met Eloy 8 or so years ago when I was living in Texas and saw Sepultura live at a small venue. They were so loud the almost took down the place and the fans nearly ripped off the metal bar separating band from stage. I had the privilege to hang out with them after the concert and the whole band were some of the coolest dudes I've met - when I shook Eloy's hand and told him what an amazing drummer he was, he responded with the most humble thanks, as if he were equally saying it to someone he really looked up to or just a fan like me. So not only is he arguably one of the best drummers alive, but also an humble, driven, and inspirational human being.

[@tellopes]

27:30-30:30 are probably the most impressive 3 minutes of drumming I’ve ever seen. An assault on the senses. I don’t think anyone else in the world could pull this off.

[@YuriHisokaa]

W.O.W.

[@gabrielcleffi9544]

thats why it has NO COVER of it ahahahah its just eloy level of impossible.

[@MiUnited]

It's incredible how dinamic his playing is while he's hitting so damn hard

[@ar053x]

yes.

[@Zalemones1]

I checked a brazilian samba drummer masterclass where he explains that independent dynamics between each of the "instruments" (hands and feet on a drumkit) are very important for brazilian stuff, to the point where it is almost objectivelly wrong to play those rhythms without taking these dynamics into account. You can see Eloy clearly does this when he plays.

[@morbidmanmusic]

Dynamic

[@CarlosAnglada]

it's superhuman

[@TerranigmaQuintet]

Hes also rather fit and works out clearly, if you put on enough muscle, hitting hard comes more natural, allowing u to be more dynamic too, as u wont have to try too hard to also hit hard.

[@andrebemfica8407]

Thank you Drumeo for this record, this video marks the history of Brazilian music on the international scene. And thank you Eloy, for putting Brazilian music on the level it deserves!

[@ShaunNicolella]

I have heard some of Eloy's drumming and knew he was incredible but this blew my freaking mind! Wtf? He is so dynamic it's unreal. He doesn't just play speed drumming, the feel, emotion, and smooth transitions make him create a style that is truly his. All his knowledge and experience adds up to this video. Wow. There are so many great drummers in the world but Eloy has stood out and the Brazilian rhythms in the music is a personal favorite style of mine. This absolutely worth watching multiple times, especially for drummers. Thank you Drumeo for the video.

[@sauloaredes9297]

look for the band "nação Zumbi" playing "Maracatu atomico". thank me later.

[@justindupuis4383]

This guy is unbelievable. He is actually too good for slipknot. How’s it even possible to be noticeably better than Jordison and Weinberg combined?!

[@agamenonfilho4384]

Actually i kinda agree with u, even if im a br guy, but joe e fully fast, weinberg pure technical but eloy, no way, complete

[@marcelreno]

He is better in every aspect, technical, creative, etc. But Joey wrote all those songs and has influenced Eloy. He walked so Eloy could fly. It's more a matter of respect than anything else.

[@nebulysses7124]

This guy seems great, possibly better technically speaking. But, Joey is still my favorite drummer of all time, personally. RIP.

A cultura brasileira é muito vasta e complexa, e a música talvez seja a melhor forma de representar essa riqueza cultural tão peculiar que o Brasil tem. Sintetizar esses elementos regionais com gêneros musicais consumidos internacionalmente, como é o caso do Metal, é uma forma brilhante de apresentar a cultura brasileira além do samba e da bossa nova. Esse vídeo é um patrimônio, que privilégio ter um brasileiro tão capacitado como o Eloy para representar a nossa música.

Props to the interviewer for knowing his stuff! It's pretty clear he did a thourough research into Eloy's path as a musician. Vai Brazil!

[@jvl975]

Eloy is brazilian metal's pride!! Is awesome to see the recognition and admiration he's receiving, he deserve it all, and even more!

[@lez0n]

Eloy just taught me how much these rhythms are imbedded in jazz.

[@lucasguedesL]

O da hora do Eloy é que alem de um baterista fora do padrao, ele manja da musica BR geral, pqp, esse cara é insano de mais.

[@rippindrummer666]

Saw him a couple weeks ago on the sepultura kreator tour and he’s easily the best drummer I’ve ever seen in play in person

[@mitchdrummin3]

I've been blown away by lots of drummers here, but holy smokes!! Eloy is a monster!!

[@rennanreis1720]

Quando acho que o Eloy não pode me surpreender mais ele vai lá e me prova o contrário... meus amigo, ja pararam pra pensar que o melhor baterista DO MUNDO é brasileiro?? O cara está em outro nível, é INACREDITAVEL o que ele faz!!

[@Bonz-vc8zd]

I HOPE to hear “applying Brazilian Rhythm to SLIPKNOT.” Especially creepy tribal beats

[@AcrazyBrazilian]

I remember back in time watching his video when he was a kid playing on festivals. Look at him now, he's a beast🤘

[@simonn_2024]

Desgraçado vei, toca demais. Arregaçou no baião macho, que top ❤❤

[@mauriciomusicalize]

ooxi!

[@allantalley9669]

Slipknot: we made a creative decision to part ways with jay. The creative decision: eloy lmao.

[@TooSlamToGiveADamn]

The best modern metal drummer 🤘 incredible player

[@vovahimself]

I genuinely think Eloy was a major driving force behind Sepultura resurrection. No offense to Dolabella, but Eloy could really re-inject those tribal vibes that felt missing after the Cavaleras left.

[@vovahimself]

I also love the way he prominently uses cymbals in fill-ins.

[@AlexanderSeluyanov]

One of the best drummers of our time

[@ZerozenOnes]

Goddamn....even by the celestial standards of drumeo masterclasses...that was remarkable. 👏 👏 👏

[@Luguash1]

I like how humble and respectful he is for his influences.

[@Adagio930]

What a monster of a drummer! I'm just speechless at how amazingly talented; the stamina, verstile, dynamic although hitting the drums hard and accentuating a lot, creative and mostly genuine and loyal to his cultural background. He has been one of my favourire drummers of all time since I knew him couple of years ago. Thank you Dtumeo for inviting this humble artist and Thank you Eloy for entertaining us!

[@abrielrobertsson4160]

He is exceptional at Brazilian rhythms and incorporating them in his heavy metal playing. He says he is not the best at it, but to me, this is the area where he shines and shows his true potential. I wished there was such a video with him for so long and now we got it.

[@user-jy4nn2of2b]

I learned some very valuable drumming and psychological lessons from Eloy in this video

[@yatanjeronimodesousacosta4896]

Incredible drummer! Once I sit in the first line chair in his workshop… I feel the sound and air waves in my body. Was a crazy experience saw him playing so near. Powerful!
