You can tell he's a special drummer from his face when he plays it. It isn't just a drum, it's a part of him. Darren The King!

[@kenmack]

I remember Darren before he was even part of MuteMath. I truly believe he is the most talented drummer of all time.

[@jasonlee8193]

oh sure

[@kenmack]

Sure what? I do. Why are you making Snide Sarcastic Comments? No one needs you here.

[@JJthePianoman]

who was he associated with before mutemath? I want to scope that out. Other than earthsuit, obviously

[@galacticboost3156]

Totally agree. He's just something special

[@sumumfachunk2591]

Definitely didn't need to be the snide comment, but personally Takashi from Toe is my favorite. The way he plays is just something that clicks with me.

[@DrAndrae1x]

A masterclass

[@dillywilliewoo]

such a minimalist kit but god damn he's grooving so hard

[@IvanAcunzo]

I need a whole album like this!!!

[@MitchellBowser]

this man is a legend

[@joshuagilbert193]

Dude I hope they use this to back one of their songs in the future.

[@hungrydrummerjoey3440]

Best modern drummer. 'Nuff said.

[@samuelpark2040]

[@andrewfreeman4877]

New album will break heads

[@KellyJello]

Heck yes. I am in full support of this.

[@milkminotaur]

[@barboros24]

if it could be more long , that time would be awesome!!

[@acesorcerer117]

agreed. all four of these videos are amazing.

[@micahc29]

Reminds me of Steve Gadd. Endless groove on a limited kit.

[@AdriDaniel]

I love this guy

[@JohnDoe-zw5jr]

A groove monster

[@locl3492]

I need a CDQ of the first part of this

[@Stumbler98]

I am in love with this video. Also, I love seeing Darren smile at 1:04 :)

[@noaremi9690]

If this isn't on the new record, I'm going to be very upset..

[@dclarkmusic]

Noa Remi it wasn't.

[@GeorgGoodGod]

true KING!

[@CBChiefful]

Crazy man this guy rocks I mean ROCKS!!! I may have missed this one damn this guy has it going on and The Kieth moon comment Yep I agree! This guy seems as wild!! What energy!

[@ACforever227]

i would totally love to see MM drop an album (maybe as a side-proj) of these kit-driven synthy rock tunes.

[@jayxmenendez]

Killer

[@SuperGamer87]

I second that so hard.

[@winterlogical]

They actually said AT this event that these were all ideas in the running for the new album! So you might just get your wish.

[@LycoLoco]

All 4 of the tracks from this Drum-Off remind me of their Reset EP/eponymous stuff and really really would love to see more stuff in this vein rather than the "single" style tracks we saw more of on Odd Soul.

[@vmkvmh]

KZbin downloader - enjoy :)

[@joshuamarkley]

Anyone that said they didn't like this video, Darren, or Mute Math... I want to see you do better!

[@SputnikDucknik]

Was the first bit (first minute & 30 seconds) of part 3 in any song of theirs?

[@mikevbushy]

Dude want a pure mute math instrumental album please, no offense Paul on the vocals but love your fingers more!

[@pizzasoundsz]

Where is this mutemath album? I want this one

[@RodyCar]

Deve avere una fornitura di nastro adesivo gratuita!!!! Comunque un grande... a parte le pelli cacose

[@jacksontsukahara3798]

My god. I could drown in 1:06

[@symphantic4552]

@2:07 the music sounds like it could be from Child of Edem

[@steve123k]

Does anyone know if this is a Ludwig supraphonic snare??

[@eternize_br]
