Dream Theater - Lines In The Sand | DRUM COVER by Mathias Biehl

[@AnnWahlquist]

Aaaa THE REAL dream Theater....❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ Definitely the best era..... No question

FLAWELESS!! I have been watching your videos since you were recording them with a potato. I love your Portnoy Covers, because you stay true to the song, you play it as it was intended. Some other covers I see people wanting to showcase they can do more with the song and add their "takes" and just end up ruining for me. You play it note for note, its amazing how accurate you are with all the extra stuff MP does and you are able to replicate so accurately. I would love to see you play "In Constant Motion"

[@MitchCairns]

Honestly it's not a 1:1 rendition but he really nails the Portnoy style where any variations are seamless and blend in. It's good to remember that even Portnoy doesn't play 1:1 with the albums when he performs live because a lot of what Portnoy does in the studio IS improvised.

[@AAXplosion]

@@MitchCairns that's it :) I don't replicate it 1:1 because Portnoy didn't make that too. He variegates live but keeping the Portnoy Style. And I try the same in my cover. :)

One of my favorite songs off of Falling Into Infinity. You NAILED it my man. You're so good dude. I love your videos!🤘

[@asheshinfinite3766]

Perfect Drum Sound, specially for DT!👌🤙🤘

[@MnyFrNthng]

Great job again. But that Petrucci solo!!!! Damn!!! Goose bumps every time.

[@naydin1912]

Just underrated. Perfect!

[@mr.d7429]

I was waiting for this one bru! Killer drumming as always

[@christophgrunwald7862]

Unfassbar gut was du da wieder gespielt und recorded hast. Das ist wirklich absolute Weltklasse. Aboluter Wahnsinn! Ich bin nach wie vor an deinen drumless tracks interessiert und würde gerne mehr darüber erfahren!

[@Fergobirck]

Great playing as always! Awesome mix too. That snare sounds fantastic.

[@psehunter3525]

Another awesome job Mathias! What a great great song too love Doug Pinnick 🤩🤙🏼

[@drumdoug8083]

Excellent playing, very clean. Killer kit that sounds great as well. Very nice!

[@Hockeyguy8541]

You're tones are unmatched dude. I need to know how you get such clean tom and kick tones. Snare sounds great as always. Oh and absolutely perfect spot on playing dude!

[@AAXplosion]

it all begins with a good sounding drumset. The Tama Superstar sounds awesome. The right choice of heads and a good tuning. A little EQ and the sound is perfect. :)

[@isaiascosta2982]

This is one of my favorite Dream Theater songs. Great as usual man!

[@OthonasDrums]

just a hard song to pull off and you did it without breaking a sweat....what a great drummer you are dude

[@Paregoros123]

[@diegocastillo8544]

More covers Please Amigo! ❤️

[@johnsinclair2864]

Hi! Sehr gut! Vom Sound und Playing! Ich bin restlos begeistert! Nur eins ist mir aufgefallen sehe es nicht als Kritik der Part ab Minute 7:34 Spielt Portnoy es nicht alles auf den Hithats sondern gohstnots auf der Snare! 😉Aber sonst ist es Perfekt ! Bitte mehr davon!😎👍👌🖖

[@osirisgolad]

Portnoy has done so much fantastic work on the hi-hat over the years, which is honestly quite an unusual part of the kit to be a drummer's signature instrument. There are plenty of drummers who are famous for the way they move around the toms, their ghost notes or their double pedal technique for instance; not so many for their hi-hat playing.

[@joelclonch6120]

Call me crazy but have you overlayed the sons of Apollo version with the DT version?

[@AAXplosion]

no it's just the original version from the Falling into Infinity album. :)

[@jmendyka4325]

🏆👍🏼

[@AudiophoolDeBunkHunter]

Amazing perf' ! How did you get the track without drums ? (Or are your drums mixed louder so we don't perceive the original one ?). Well done though :)

[@AAXplosion]

I used the app Moises :) It works really good!

[@siralbar]

@@AAXplosion i used it too, great app to remove instrument sounds and vocals

[@CapellaOnDrums]

[@leandroalveschannel]

monster!!!! hahahaha!

[@p.zeller]

Sag mal, ist das eine Drumless-Version oder „nur“ gekonnt bearbeitet? Von den ursprünglichen Drums hört man nichts.

[@AAXplosion]

ist ne drumless Version 😊

[@AnnWahlquist]

Another won please..... 😉

[@josipbelosevic248]

Why don't you have a camera down on the bass drums to see the footwork?

[@AAXplosion]

I have it on some videos but not on all.

[@draufgesch5215]

Aussergewöhnlich ... mir als Nichtdrummer (aber Kenner der Musik) fetzt es beim zuschauen fast den Arsch weg. Ich verstehe einfach nicht, wie man dies in den Kopf bekommt. Das geht wohl nicht ohne eine ganz spezielle Begabung oder Mutation im Hirn. Speicherst du dies einfach ab und kannst es beliebig wieder abklopfen ??? Musst du dabei hochkonzentriert denken oder läuft dies automatisch ab ? Vor allem die komplizierten Drumcover von Ray, da kann ich kaum verstehen wie man dies so gut nachkloppen kann. Alle Hochachtung

[@AAXplosion]

Vielen lieben Dank 😊 ach wenn man das lange genug macht ist das wie Auto fahren. Da denkt man auch nicht mehr nach in welchen Gang man jetzt schalten muss oder wo jetzt nochmal der Blinker war. 😃 Ich trommele seit meinem 7. Lebensjahr, sprich seit 24 Jahren. Seit 2006 beschäftige ich mich mit Prog Metal. Und wenn man sowas lange genug macht geht das irgendwann in Fleisch und Blut über. Klar sind Songs wie Messiah Complex für mich super schwer am Anfang, aber wenn man die Grundtechnik, die Patterns und Fills beherrscht die Ray nutzt ist das ganze nur noch ne Sache des langsamen Übens und auswendig Lernens. 🙂 Es ist wie bei allem Übungssache.

[@draufgesch5215]

@@AAXplosion Herrlich, wie einfach diese Erklärung ist :-) Danke, ich fange gleich an zu üben ...
