Drum Cover - Raise a Hallelujah - Bethel Music

[@Stoovey24]

I'm the backup drummer, so I only play once a month or so. We did this song last time I played, but I barely had time to listen to it. Being able to listen to it on repeat helps to better understand the song structure and fills. I really enjoy playing it!

[@kadenlosee3603]

How did youtube know to recommend this? I sung this song at church this morning. Mind blown.

[@jtambunga1]

Spirit led or big brother? 😂

[@kadenlosee3603]

Joseph Tambunga probably spirit led. Youth band is starting next week, I play drums 😂🙌🏻

[@rozlin313]

Powerful. RAISE A HALLELUJAH all people of God no weapon formed against you shall prosper! The KING IS ALIVE!

I've watched this video like 10 times and I get the chills, such a good song, such a good cover

[@jtambunga1]

This one gives me the chills too...the church gets pretty hyped up when we sing it. Thanks, Josiah, I appreciate it.

[@sameerawanigasuriya6804]

Beautifully, effortlessly played in a way where all can learn. Thank you for this video. Blessings from Sri Lanka!

Thanks, Sameera! I appreciate it. I'm glad it is helpful.

Using this to practice for church. Very helpful and fun.

That's great man, thanks for letting me know. That is exactly why I post them, to be a resource for other worship drummers.

I have been pausing and repeating this one to try to learn for this Saturday night, love your style bro! your dynamics are amazing!!! I finally moved up from a Cahoon and symbol to a drum set I am super excited to play this song now that you have gave me an idea of how it should be played.

[@jtambunga1]

Kyle Breeden That’s great man! I’m glad it is helpful. It’s a fun song to play and playing it on the drum set will be even better. Thanks for the support, I appreciate it. God bless.

Awesome video. Less is more but I don't always follow that rule when drumming. 😁 God bless

[@jtambunga1]

Yea, usually "more" feels better to us drummers but isn't what feels best for the song...I get caught up in the worship and start playing all kinds of extra stuff sometimes. I've had to learn when to pull that back and when to go with it. Thanks for the comment. God bless you, too.

[@fluffy2840TTV]

I'm planning to start playing the drums for my church for the first time once they reopen and Every time I practice a song with my "Air Drums" I always catching myself hitting the cymbals more than the drummer in the video

I love this. Do you follow music notes?

[@jtambunga1]

Thanks, man, glad you like it. If you mean read music, not when I play at church. I usually just memorize the songs.

[@gabe1655]

that kit sounds amazing, the singers however...

[@steevstev3984]

Yeah i agree.. they sound very tense and rushed.

[@Grayham4]

Hard to find good worship singers

[@joshpetermann]

Not really a fair comment, being that unlike the original, this is a completely live recording without auto tune, overdubs, etc. (You can hardly even hear any vocal effects on their mics, it sounds very dry... no doubt sounded infinitely better in the house mix). They both have solid tone and even made decent efforts to adjust their vocal technique to fit the song.

The low end on the drums makes me nut!!!...so powerful...which kit is that?!

Yea, it has great low end. The kit is a DW Performance with 12, 16, & 18-inch toms, 22 kick and the 14x6.5 Dunnett snare. 14" Vintage Sand Hi-hats 20" Vintage Crashes x2 22" Vintage Sand Crash/Ride (Benny Greb)

Is it better to memorize a song or to read the music

[@jtambunga1]

It depends on the scenario. If you were going to a last-minute gig and didn't know the songs, you're definitely better off being able to read music. However, if you know the songs and are able to just play them from memory, that's when you make room for adding creativity to the parts (pending the creativity doesn't take away from the parts).

[@RjBenjamin353]

What the hell has happened to Christian music nowadays? It all sucks and sounds the same. The drum parts suck, this drum part is all floor Tom like a native beating on a log. Totally terrible

[@jtambunga1]

Thanks for your honest comment, Frank. I'll be honest, too. I prefer the worship music and drum parts from back in the Ron Kenoly days more than I like these parts, but this worship seems to be what the Lord is doing and using now so I'm going with it. Is there anything specific I can pray for you?

[@sciencecolove2856]

Hi frank dont look on the sound or beat of the drums...its all about the heart of worship of the drummer...he is totally a worshipping drummer

[@Obi-Wan81]

I also agree with you frank. Although a lot of the main song writers from the likes of elevation, Hillsong, bethel all write together with the likes of Matt redman, Chris tomlin, Michael w Smith, Tim Hughes, Martin Smith etc. Right there in the few names I’ve mentioned is about 95% of the entire Christian song writing base. And they all write the same sounding songs and have the same writing style. So yeah, you’re naturally going to get the same sounding stuff. What doesn’t help is that all those churches - bethel, Hillsong, elevation etc all LOOK the same also. Same style, same way of how people think church should be done. All the pastors have book deals, all the worship teams release albums and the churches themselves relentlessly do events and conferences all year round. Ask yourself the question - why is this? Answer - because most big churches out there are now businesses, rather than churches. The gospel is rarely preached anymore. Charles spurgeon once said - “if it takes a conference / event to get people into church, it’s going to take continuous conferences and events to keep them there”. Food for thought. Unfortunately most Modern day worship is about performance than intimacy with god. If you’re looking for something that is different in sound, check out some gospel music - Israel houghton, Marvin sapp, Kirk Franklin etc. Again, can be a bit performance based, but different in sound... I for one miss old school worship, with someone stood at the front with a guitar, not bothered whether things were ‘professional sounding’ etc. But again, most modern day worship is so performance orientated, that worship / churches like that Is simply looked down on and not considered ‘relevant’ anymore. Sad really...

[@markrupsch9973]

HAHA - agreed. This is the same drum part for every single song out right now. So boring.

[@roymercer22]

@@Obi-Wan81 Brilliantly put. I have stepped away from playing worship because of this exact reason. My wife doesn't understand but it's a battle i fight everyday. All of these "worship" bands try and write the next Oceans song and it shows. The modern church has definitely lost sight of authentic worship.

[@pcdrumz187]

The musicians on stage are on point. The female vocals though. Ouch 😕. I get working with what you got but man its pitchy and inconsistant and sadly its a distraction, which is what you dont want in a worship set.

[@jarub7641]

great drumming and nice sounding kit, singing a little off and too loud for my liking
