Dennis Chambers Insane Crossovers | Study The Greats

[@backspace3111]

your signature "mmm" is my favourite part of this series

[@Johnnodonoughue]

trademark? 😉

[@augustburnsred3541]

+Mark O'Donoughue no not at all

[@sirdrumalot0337]

I watch this for the mmm 😋

[@endornaut]

5:50 didn't see that coming :D Man this was totally awesome, even the 120 bpm version sounds amazing!

[@rammstein1985234]

I love that during all that insanity his face looks bored and how he's chewing gum and almost blows a bubble at the end too. That just goes to show how relaxed and second nature this all is to him.

[@abbdrums]

yea it is pretty crazy how centered he can stay during that...

[@theHumanBryno]

My favourite thing about this series is that it makes me want to play drums more often.

[@abbdrums]

that's a good thing!

[@babycarl9519]

+Austin Burcham hey Austin ! Great Video As always ! Can you recommend a "bang for the Buck " USB audio Interface ?

[@Johnnodonoughue]

yep, more than any other video series.

[@Simonewhitesim-1music]

How many Channels? Focusrite is always Great..

[@babycarl9519]

+Simone white well I'm not playing a fixed kit , so it could be extended at some point. 4 Toms 1 kick wont be changed tho . so i guess i need more than 8 .

[@mickelfraticelli6262]

Mind-blowing content. Austin is definitively in the top five KZbin channels dedicated to drum instruction.

[@abbdrums]

+Miguel Arcángel Fraticelli :)

[@2strokeroll]

AGREED!

[@misscreant]

"That's what she said" I almost sit out my breakfast. Lol

[@misscreant]

*spit

[@abbdrums]

+Dan Genzale haha sorry dude

[@smoukondeuoter]

ahahahhaah

[@ihaballam4086]

The way you explain and transfer information is phenominal... truly a great teacher. Thank you.

[@robertjones6333]

This is the best drum series on youtube. Austin, you are killing it.

[@abbdrums]

thanks man :-)

[@tasmiraziz5260]

Austin the quality of you vids is practically unmatched when it comes to instructional videos and groove/chop analysis

[@alecl9430]

Incredible. Like you said, very simple in theory, but like everything Dennis has ever played, the execution is flawless and the orchestration and speed are unreal. Can't wait to see the next Vinnie STG, but I would like to continue voting after that. After all, it got us this video.

[@sergiozdrums]

WIiiiiiiiiicked!!!!! this Dennis's lick is one of my favorites! so simple but yes the speed and the power dennis plays it makes it so insane!!! and cool! :) thanks for the lesson Austin!! really amazing content you're putting out!!

[@CallMeShana]

You had me at "That's what she said!" 🎶💕👊 Thanks for the lesson Bro!

[@PeterKimMusic]

Why does this channel not have more subs? Just discovere this channel...and wow...please keep posting...u inspire many drummers and truly educate drummers

[@abbdrums]

Thanks, let's hope it keeps growing!

[@DioGhark]

You should try transcripting what Matt Gartska, Blake Richardson do in their solos. Those guys are just beyond insanely good

[@misscreant]

I love your STG videos and think it would be cool to see an episode where you go over your favorite grooves. Maybe break down your thoughts on how it compliments the songs, backs a soloist, affects the feel and emotion, ect. Not to take away from all the chops you showcase which are amazing and super fun to watch and learn from. I think it's important to see the other side of drumming- which is being the musical foundation of a song. You're an incredible drummer and seem like a cool dude, so thanks for making these videos for our community.

[@abbdrums]

for sure man, thanks for the suggestion!

[@cryptonios]

great vid as always austin, i like your snare drum sound...any information on type and tuning would be appreciated

[@charlesostle]

Wonderful! The last variation reminds me of Alan DAwson's in Syncopation. Cheers!

[@twelge15]

Everybody notice that even with fast crossover singles all over the set, Dennis is rooted like an anchor in his seat. Chewing his gum nonchalantly. Always facing forward. He always had the best posture of any dude.

[@knuckledragger549]

Q : do you know what a metronome is? A : A little short guy from the big city. God bless Y'all.

[@abbdrums]

+Michael B. Porter hehe

[@kegalormoon]

a thought they hopped trains an were from Irish decent!?

[@Ignorhance]

Wow !! What a groove at 6:00 !!! you should make a video about you're stuff too ! :)

[@jarrahdrum]

Fantastic lessons, fantastic playing, thank you.

[@ScienceSeance]

Great instalment. Congrats on the vic firth hook up too. You're playing is actually improving each video (from an obviously high base!). :)

[@abbdrums]

+ScienceSeance that's good to hear!

[@Dad_Jok3s]

Really happy I found your channel, I'm sure you have a list of drummers your working down, If he isn't on it yet, Calvin Rodgers is a master. Can't wait for that video, keep up the great work for the drumming community.

[@BrockSavage79]

Fantastic video, as ever!! Thanks Austin for sharing, your channel is at the TOP of my KZbin drumming list! Where can we see you playing in a band?

[@abbdrums]

+Jack Caddy Thanks man. Right now I'm not in a band b/c I've just been focusing on building this channel and doing remote tracking sessions from my studio. I'm sure I'll eventually get back into a band situation so whenever I do that I'll let everyone know.

[@michaelkennedy8843]

The thing that blows my mind is that approx 1:33 Dennis is blowing a small bubble with his gum. All whilst ripping one of the greatest drum licks known to the drumming community.

[@Tachot123]

i really appreciate the effort of transcribing this lick. Absolutely love it. When you are done with the Vinnie one, maybe you could do something completely different like something by Tyshawn Sorey or Joey Baron?!

[@raymeesapiat2631]

Thank You So Much for all the effort doing (Study The Greats). Thank you

[@Mikas_Emil]

Amazing work, Austin. Thank you so much for this!

[@mpayne1184]

Noice! Props for tossing in the TWSS joke too!

[@oscwildle1]

That kit sounds amazing!!!!! Great job

[@rocklandmusic]

Thanks again Austin! would love to see you do a lesson on the DC clinic where Matt Gartska asks about the Billy Cobham inspired high speed fusion groove...cheers man

[@abbdrums]

+Robert Minton can you post a link to that?

[@heftyalan1152]

Impressive especially the last pattern which sounds really nice sped up

[@billbigler1366]

Great as always Austin. And man your drums sound good. Keep up the great work.

[@menezguedesdrums3429]

My Drummer favourite Congratulations 👏🏿👏🏿👊🎼🎶🎼 Excellent Lessons GOD BLESS FROM BRASIL

[@alainvaudou]

you are definitely one of the good drummer on youtube to subscribe. Intersting stuff and really great playing skills. Good to explain things too. And the ''that what she said'' had me spilled my ice coffee all around me. !!!

[@bblax123]

Very nice! Love the scream at 5:25 .

[@CarloVirtucio]

Just in time! Was just looking for some crossover concepts.

[@marcDEAL]

my favorite thing is the "that's what she said" line put into a Study The Greats episode!

[@jaenzener]

Great work, like always! Your playing at the end is very tasteful 👌

[@multigwilty5154]

Dennis is a total monster and a huge part of the reason I got into drumming. In this particular era, young Dennis hit different. He was basically the champ.

[@larsmichael3383]

Awesome, and great sounding drums!

[@johnnybrandman7017]

just got so lost in the deep rabbit role that is your vids xD thanks man, keep it up.

[@ricardosalluca4171]

Your videos are great!! Thank you for share it!! Excellent

[@DrSticktrick]

Hey Austin, great as always! It's really beyond me, how Dennis can play this one so fast. Very difficult to figure out so great job on that too. Let me know if you need Vinnie... I always have some of his stuff flying around. :)

[@abbdrums]

For sure dude! I'm thinking something from the Baked Potato though cuz those are like my favorite Vinnie vids.

[@DrSticktrick]

I do have some of that. ;) I'll send you something to check out.

[@yorkvonsydow3481]

i'd really dig it, if you did an episode with a tight groove sometime in the future! chops are fun but interesting grooves too ^^ your content is amazing bro you are gonna make it with this channel!

[@Kman1960]

Great job on the Dave Weckl video! Very cool stuff!

[@thiago670]

I really like your explanations, very good!

[@baitcandy]

awesome lesson. Love your channel. Thanks for the hard work!!

Suas videos aula são excelentes. Estou aprendendo muito.

[@mariomartinho7588]

I love your vídeos!! Thanks Austin :) I'm already waitting for the next one :)

[@Wespups]

Great work Austin, thanks....

[@Niels_Mortensen]

You are a brilliant educator Austin! Good job!

[@susanbabudro3825]

Wow! Great job Austin!

[@davidcurtis4478]

Hey Austin, this is s great video! Awesome variation too! Happy 4th bro. David Curtis Drumming

[@ShadowDatsas]

Thank you very much for all these videos, it will definitely help my studies! May I suggest something: In your video descriptions, where you type ORIGINAL VIDEO, could also please type next to it a time stamp? e.g.: ORIGINAL VIDEO (~4:06): assuming the lick/fill starts somewhere around there. This is information that you already know so it wouldn't take more than a couple of seconds but I think it would help someone that has not seen the particular video before and would have to search through it to find where the exact location is. Once again thanks so much! EDIT: Yes I know that you show the specific part, but If I download the audio/video of the original, I would like to have a time-stamp at the file's name to make everything faster!

[@abbdrums]

yea that's a good suggestion... I'll try and start doing that from now on!

[@jamestorres9012]

Austin I love your channel pls keep up the great work!!

[@jeromesilva4503]

don't be fooled by Austin and his ''we'll go ahead and try it and see what happens'' demeanor as he's about to demonstrate his STG lesson ... (he's a master class drummer who can play anything on a kit and i hope he makes a lot of money for it real soon!)

[@MattHernandezDrums]

thats the fastest lick ive ever seen! I feel like there is a lot more floor tom in your transcription but that might just be because the audio on your floor tom is so much better than the Dennis video. love all these STG!

[@abbdrums]

+Matt Hernandez Yea I was having trouble seeing each individual hit with his hands when I slowed it down. I tried out a lot of stickings and orchestrations that I thought it could be but this one was the only one that really made sense. And yea, my floor tom is much more prominent in the audio than his is in that video...

[@MattHernandezDrums]

Yea i agree, even at .25 speed here on KZbin was still difficult to see haha! Cant wait to see what Vinnie lick or groove you choose! Cheers!

[@twelge15]

A lot of shows, and clinics, where I've seen Dennis play a few feet away (Mike Stern, Carlos Santana, etc) he throws in 32nd sextuplet doubles every 8th note on the bass drum. Or is that another lick??

[@MrLicka]

awesome explanations Austin...thanks heaps

[@Simonewhitesim-1music]

Saw it! Great work as always..

[@enriquealejandrozambrano6039]

Excelente maestro de la batería.

[@mts353]

Great lesson

[@drummero1drummer]

Adapting your variation... A cool thing I've been doing is adding a flam to the first note!

[@o_felipefelix]

Very very nice this study! Congrats!

[@damianquadro]

This was a Great lesson Austin! By The way, I've seen Dennis play this lick while playing his double Bass drum. Have you ever seen that? If so.. Do yo know what hes playing with his feet? I can't understand exactly what he does! Thanks!!!

[@rohanbhogal9012]

Could you do a setup video of like your equipment and the stuff you use??

[@dylanguy6160]

thanks so much for breaking this down! u da man

[@wannabeadrummer]

Incredible stuff Austin🎉

[@that-avr-drummer]

I would love to see you break down the end bass drum work of the song Becoming by Pantera. I know metal really isn't your thing, but that foot work deserves some attention! Keep up the awesome vids!!!

[@hectorgonzalez3174]

hahah "thats what she said" cool lessons, keep posting

[@Joko515]

hey man, where did you study drums? I am really enjoying your videos, Cheers!

[@abbdrums]

+Joko515 Musician's Insitute 👍🏼

[@DrummaTime]

Man your drums sound great! Awesome lesson as well!

[@pazenmaz]

Dope lesson! More Vinnie please!!!!

[@BrianRussick]

quality video, not too many people talk about Dennis Chambers these days...

[@La_sagne]

phenomenal sounding drums and great playing. really nice. but my favourite part was still the mmmhh when dennis went from insanity to the tastiest fuckin groove

[@drewmusselman]

I wish I could add more likes, I cannot stop watching your videos!

[@tdrum21]

Did you bring the moon gel further in on your snare in this one? Were you going for a more muffled tone? Great video and lick here. Thanks for this!

[@abbdrums]

+tdrum21 Yea it's a little further in. I think I did that for a tracking session recently and just left it there. Just takes away a little bit more of the overtones and sustain but I dig it.

[@drumzof7]

I was there that night. It was at the now defunct Mars Music Store. He was definitely in another zone that night.

[@abbdrums]

that's awesome dude... yea definitely in the zone more than usual

[@mister91183]

Very good man! Keep up the good work!

[@Skelletor87]

Holy scheisse that was the best STG so far! I must learn this ASAP!

[@ArtemEnglishPro]

Awesome! Freaking awesome! Many thanks!

[@bogartsandoval]

Thorough video! Is that a 10 inch tom?

[@zgabiz95]

the instant you said "that's what she said" i subscribed

[@andys3035]

love this channel

[@POUGASDR]

You are great!! so nice video man! i love your work!

[@scottelam7865]

I agree with Peter Kim, but what's kool to me is that your presenting material from really good players & playing it as well as the studied player. jezzz, your kind of a bad-ass yourself!!! keep up the good work man

[@JustTutupa]

There needs to be more Vinnie videos! Yesss

[@user-kv9iv5ho4g]

Holy cow! Dude. Awesome!

[@commondomarine]

what is that crash cymbal in the right ? it sounds awsome ! and yeah more and more of vinnie !!

[@abbdrums]

+roizer roizerr It's a broken Wuhan actually lol

[@ShawnJonesHellion]

You are pretty good. I bet that humbleness is holding you back. I have the same problem. You must know you can to do. I test this on my recent heavy bag videos. Do i kick the heavy bag or or do i know the heavybag will fly when my leg diaplaces it. The heavybag wins when i merely try to kick it

[@monterrawr]

this series is really great. aside from the series, austin, brother, you are great! i just want to know what cymbals you're using in this video..

[@abbdrums]

A combination of a lot of weird stuff haha... Sabian HHX hats/ride, Wuhan crashes, Paiste ozone stack... still waiting on that cymbal endorsement lol

[@nikky_styx]

Hey bud, great stuff as always. Have you discussed your set up (mics, audio interface, DAW, etc)? I would love to know, but if it's in one of your clips let me know I'd love to check it out!

[@abbdrums]

+Nick Murray I did a series called "How To Record Drums" that goes over a lot of that stuff if you want to check that out.

[@nikky_styx]

Great, thanks!

[@ericcoleman6281]

... are you up to transcribing dave weckl's drum solo with oz noy on just groove me !!

[@nycdrums5985]

great job! your the state of the art dude!!!!!!!greg aka... a clockwork drummer!

[@basadrum5178]

You are amazing bro!!! Thanks for la data, from argentina.

[@davidhammers9708]

I really wish there was a channel like this for bass

[@cooldaniel101]

Dave Hammers look up Adam Neely. He’s great

[@danielbenalcazar860]

Can u transcript the drum solo of Mike Portnoy at the end of Author of Confusion, but in the video live clinic

[@joshw8854jw]

Great work

[@Underdog_Drums]

The sticking is easy. Getting the L to the crash, and getting back to the crossover was sweet! Your speed was GREAT, Dennis is just not human lol. Almost proves there's a god. Guy doesn't have the luxury to read...He has a hell of an ear, and INSANE speed. The Vinny will be cool. The Gadd stuff isn't terribly difficult (with charts) but he has that "feel". Still live Paccaro, Rich, and for a "rock" drummer, Bonham influenced them all. Maybe not the chops, speed etc, but his groove is FAT!
