David Bowie - "Fame" Drum Cover

[@jasunkarner3916]

So, I'm late gen x/early millennial (birth year 1986). I've heard this song my whole life. All of Bowie's other singles too. Grew up on Labyrinth. Always regarded Bowie as an eccentric performer and interesting/supremely influential songwriter. And that's it. Never a huge fan. Never a paying customer. Never a live spectator (regrets there). It took me all this time, all the way up to my 37th year, working on a blue collar job site, with a radio blaring classic rock hits, to take a second to notice the shining pocket of gold in this song. The drums man. The drums. This is a drum performance that deserves appreciation. For what it's worth.

Very smooth ghost notes and accents. Stuck in the pocket like a quarter back. 10/10

[@mariobriones1114]

Bro, the swag is real on this cover.

[@sneakylanky]

[@johndoc4483]

[@nathanread7980]

I love your drum sound + song choice + staying in the pocket and not overdoing it

[@rbjax2001]

Dude your drums, cymbals and groove are ridiculously on point.

[@seanvucich]

I haven't played drums in FOREVER - Watching this inspired me. Thanks!

[@nitedrive2956]

One of your best to date. And I love those tortilla stack cymbals....

[@andyleibrook6012]

Sent me looking to see who played on the original..Dennis Davis is what I found. Great solid playing by you sir!

[@chrislira3574]

Great video! You did a great job with the sound and engineering, as well laying down the rock solid groove. I have always love this song, and the drum part. It’s a great example of a straightforward beat that fits the music *perfectly*. Thanks for giving us a visual to go with it.

[@Drivenut4]

This is drumming. Tight groove. Play to the song. 10/10 I have more fun playing in the pocket than nailing any fill.

[@VMXGroove]

I love the way your snare sounds! Nice job on this iconic song.

[@anthonyf.9170]

[@twintriode]

Awesome to see a black man playing an instrument. I get get sick of sampled music. I miss all those old school Motown cats that could just throw down. Why the fuck do people think Prince was such a beast? You hit that very well sir. Keep it up.

[@jaybird3837]

Just great ! Can you quote the Originals drummers in the profil 👍

[@pclutch]

What is the Pringle cymbal? I want one

[@exclamationpointman3852]

WOW he got that! I heard this song for years but only really paid attention to the drumming recently: what an incredible effect on the song and complicated piece it is! It has a great rhythm and he was right to bob his head: great job!

[@bennyw-b6047]

Dig the playing man! What’s your approach to practicing/polishing up your playing?

[@UnkleNephew]

Uhh consistency. Practice everyday and listen. Listening is very important. Keep it simple

[@flohardy2000]

Man, your drum sound is so addictive What mics are you using exactly?

[@UnkleNephew]

It's not so much the mic but the drum tuning and the preamps. Im using an Apollo Interface.

[@alphatan2]

Are you the Lc Predator catchers brother. Look exactly the same.

[@trickypa]

So fucking cheeky 🍑🍑🍑

[@DerSwine]

MINT....

[@jamescastillo2405]

Okay okay we get it, you can play all the songs perfect. if only you would show us how to do it, "slow it way down" or write it out, or both,... Slowly show us lick by lick, what you're doing so we can play it too, that's what we want, & why where watching, just watching you show out is played out., Isn't it about time you take it to the next level and show us how to do it? Not trollin, it's called constructive criticism 👈🤨

[@UnkleNephew]

Yeah, I ain’t doing none of that shit. You’re talking to the wrong one like that. FOH guy
