I start 🥁 there are 5 months ago , you are a source of motivation and inspiration , far away from your level , but every Thursday you remember me why I start drumming! Fun , pleasure , going further and create ! You kill it , you colour it , you add something in every cover ! And your album also! Thanks ! And positives vibes from Belgium!

Amazing…. As a (humble guitar player and) non-drummer I’m so incredibly impressed by Delta and his ability to play with surgical precision whilst still putting so much feels in the percussion. Rip Keith, he would’ve enjoyed this I’m sure

[@curious5254]

Of course Keith would've enjojed this I'm sure he's watching this and enjoy this playing. For me "Breathe" cover is the best cover on this channel and Delta style is very similar to Prodigy music videos for me :)
