[@AdamHallacher]

people with the tiniest drum kits always have the tightest groove

[@menriquez89]

Cause they just got the essentials. Toms are gettin in the way a lot

[@MakhiJD]

So true

[@peeano]

true man, tightest grooves 🥁

[@GlidingChiller]

It's small so that it entirely fits into his pocket.

[@birthdaydinosaur]

reminds me of louis cole’s drumming

[@hamacaboy]

I need an album of all of this, this is like fusion jazz crossed with videogames and aphex fwin, its like the best thing ive heard in a long time. Perfect together

[@HeyImPeterRS]

If you haven’t you should check out flying lotus. Haven’t super kept up with his releases but Cosmogramma is very much in this same vibe

[@logiarhythm6285]

you know, the first guy to play the drums like this probably was JoJo Mayer, go check him out!

[@santosmedina4248]

hamacaboy there’s a record coming, I think an EP, I heard kenny beats talk about in a live stream

[@benoitvallet9219]

Perfect definition and everything that I like! ❤️

[@M4tth3wC]

we’ve been waiting on one for like a year 🙄

[@jamieklein8269]

A VIDEO LONGER THAN A MINUTE THE GODS HAVE BLESSED US

[@kellerc73]

These two are among the most interesting and innovative musicians on the planet right now. What loes my mind as a lifelong passionate drummer at 34 is how at nearly half my age JD is able to do things that I can still barely execute. We all know alot of what goes into making music is muscle memory but it seems like he plays like the best adult players in terms of muscle memory and I sont know how he acquired such a level of control at that age. When I was his age I was just happy I could play something like schism after reading the transcription. I can only image that when he is reached full adult hood he will truly be leagues beyond everyone else considering we can all barely keep up as is. And Domi is so cool for being able to work with a drummer like him and really understand his style so well. She is a true drummers pianist if you catch my drift. Shes got an extremely rhythmic mind herself. I love these small videos they make but I hope that someday they are really able to create a masterpiece album.

[@alexhoward1884]

From what I remember JD has played drums as a small child with very supportive parents. Even at a young age they both have thousands of hours of experience on their instruments.

[@Heypistola]

Domi is considered a prodigy at piano, and I would argue so is JD on drums. They keep up with each other! I think that's why they've been so good as a duo.

[@AliceYobby]

He probably started drumming very very young, like 7-12 I’d guess, which makes learning anything on a deep intuitive and subconscious level much easier. Similar to learning a language. It is very tedious to learn a language after puberty, it takes years and years, and even once fluent, it is nearly impossible to not have the wrong accent and for native speakers to tell that it’s a second language. However if you learn before puberty, it takes less concentrated effort, and you absorb the accent fully and for all intents and purposes ARE a “native speaker”. I would say for most, their instruments are “second languages”. While jd beck is a “native speaker” of drumming.

[@kellerc73]

@@AliceYobby that's how old I was when I first started. Even still hes a monster

[@mide8845]

Agree but he already is leagues ahead and can most definitely do stuff you cannot, no offense and not trying to underestimate you, but anyone near this good probably has a real solid career

[@ItsAJETT]

3:35 can we talk about how JD’s mini cymbal got moved and he didn’t even miss a beat while fixing it?

[@JulioCamelo]

yes please dude fix stuff in milliseconds

[@Grantasia]

5:16 and the duct tape scoot

[@jessebell03]

He actually added extra beats while fixing it somehow.

[@tooomasz]

yes please let's talk about it

[@valuablesandwich]

We all gonna do a zoom call about this?

[@jasonnn2284]

these two are very fun to watch. it's kinda rare to find someone to really sync with when you're jamming. It's a beautiful thing

[@jaythomas3180]

I don't know though. I think the sloth looks more like JD Beck and the Giraffe like DOMi.

[@simpvicious875]

i bet if he were to trip and fall down steps it would be in time

[@joefish6546]

He'd ghost note the steps between bounces too, with para-diddles.

[@ExtendedGravy]

jd is a guy?

[@kellerc73]

@Scott Logan and wears dresses from time to time lol

[@NopeChuckTesla]

Some of the most unbelievably precise drumming I’ve ever seen

[@pauldee1577]

Flawless and seamless groove through all the 7/8 time. Grappling with that time signature is difficult enough on your own; keeping on the same page as another performer playing that time signature is mastery.

[@haveatomato]

That drummer is sick. That’s real talent

[@leascaart]

JD I hardly moving his wrists. Yet, he is able to produce all those fantastic complex fills. AWESOME!!

[@kanyebreast6062]

WHEN IS THE ALBUM DROPPING, I NEED IT BABY JD AN DOMI TILL I DIE

[@paulsamarin4341]

This $hit makes me so happy. Great musicians, funky as a 2 legged kat, and you need a bucket to catch all the soul.

[@m00py1]

honestly it would be so sick to see these two cover some aphex twin. I'd love to see JD Beck pull off the bass rhythm at the end of Vordhosbn from Drukqs, or like Cock/ver10 from the same album. The keyboard line on that one is so beautiful

[@granthamilton1918]

Oh look! I found somebody with my exact music taste! Drukqs fans are hard to come by.

[@zedudli]

They covered Flim by Aphex Twin just recently, there are a couple videos on yt

[@jl9938]

I decided that this is the best video on all of KZbin

[@RealBraedonW1]

drums sound even better than usual. not only getting better at the instrument but the way they sound too. great job👏🏼

[@joej7431]

One highlight for me in 2020 was seeing domi and JD live show in February-- Boston !!

The start of it sounded like videogame music mixed eith jazx fusion mixed with an elite church pianist thats crazy what you did there God bless yall new subscriber.

[@fruitygranulizer540]

i just nearly broke my thumb snapping so hard to this i love it

[@aaronocelot]

wow. most midi interfaces have worse timing than these 2 "humans" (or ARE they?!) seriously impressively tight. this is like condensed milk to jazz

[@robertlee7624]

domi's keyboard NEEDS to be louder in these mixes

[@meredithheath5272]
