Drum Teacher Reaction: Ryan Van Poederooyen - Devin Townsend Project - 'Failure' | (2021 Reaction)

[@ryanvanpoederooyen]

Thanks so much for the kind review and words, Andrew. Great channel you have here, I've subscribed :) And, you actually did a pretty good job of pronouncing my last name! Haha. Also, thanks to all of you who follow me and who commented and enjoyed this video. I'm very grateful for all of your support. Keep drumming and have a great day!

[@AndrewRooneyDrums]

Great to hear from Ryan! Thanks for inspiring us Brother! 🥁☕️💯🙌

[@ryanvanpoederooyen]

@@AndrewRooneyDrums 🙌 🙌

[@Jaymzmiller]

Love your work man! I'm so happy that the drums are really high in the mix on the whole Plovdiv show, you absolutely killed it!

[@ryanvanpoederooyen]

@@Jaymzmiller Thanks man!

[@33matou]

Man ur drumming on Higher is so insane and perfect ! Ur the best 👍😁 greeting from France

[@javo_roma]

I still can´t believe Devin Townsend let this man go, there are millions of drummers out there, some way far better than others in some features, but there are some drummers (or musicians in general for that matter) that are "signature" and have a definite sense of "belonging", that things are noticeable not the same when they are not around, the whole sound changes, the whole path detours. Drummers like Jukka Nevalainen on Nightwish, Josh Eppard on Coheed & Cambria, Dave Abbruzzese on Pearl Jam or Nicholas Barker in... well, in every band he has been in, specially Cradle of Filth and Dimmu Borgir. Ryan Van Poederooyen is one of those musicians, one of those people that you just can´t replace and expect the same results, but life and music go on... My total respect for this man.

[@AndrewRooneyDrums]

Dave Abbruzzese on Pearl Jam That's a deep cut! Steven Adler in GNR!

[@javo_roma]

@@AndrewRooneyDrums Wow, that´s kind of a pretty wide subject to discuss and share opinions, in a table with a nice Dark Ritual coffee or maybe a couple of cold ones, but lean my balance to Sorum, hands down.

[@ericdravenX00X]

Jeeeeeesh... Ryan's Hits are So good they are 100% centered.. From what i noticed, the Placement of his Strikes are Top Notch.. Ryan is a extremely impressive drummer..

[@AndrewRooneyDrums]

Yes Sir!

[@intherapy1]

Ryan is such a powerful consistent drummer. A great guy to boot. Had the pleasure of supporting dev a few times and seeing Ryan do his thing close up. He's stated ( coz I asked him) that this is the song he would recommend to people as an introduction to his drumming. Hope to see more of him on the channel

[@AndrewRooneyDrums]

Wow! That sounds like a great support gig!

[@villeniemela1974]

RVP is Actually Canadian, from Vancouver!

[@BluuurghAg9]

But he certainly has dutch ancestory with a name like that

[@ryanvanpoederooyen]

Correct!

[@ryanvanpoederooyen]

@@BluuurghAg9 Yes, I do :)

[@pugmonzzz]

Ryan's in a new band since this called IMonolith. And not to brag, but the guitarist Kai is the father of one of my best friends. And about the heavy cymbals, Ryan plays Sabian HH power bell rides, and HH radia cup chimes

[@AndrewRooneyDrums]

Thanks for the info Jackson

[@luipers]

The cymbals on 5:55 are Sabían Radia Cup Chime by Terry Bozzio ; )

[@ryanvanpoederooyen]

That's correct!

[@mathiasvbl]

Oh boy! This guy is a beast. Was Lucky enough to get a lesson from him a couple of years ago when they we're on tour. Awesome drummer and a solid guy!

[@AndrewRooneyDrums]

Great to hear!

[@Megawatt]

What an all-around great performance by the whole band.

[@AndrewRooneyDrums]

Absolutely!

[@Pygmyer]

The Ocean Machine Version is muuuuuuch bigger. It's incredibly mixed (even though Devin says he screwed up the mix), there's an orchestra there, please check it out. And if you feel like it, please take "By your command" from the Ocean Machine set as one of your next picks. It's also played by RVP and he deserves a medal for it. It's incredible, truly. :)

[@mattisle7761]

Devin is pretty active with his fan base (twitter/twitch). You may consider contacting him to see if he can help unblock the reactions.

[@AndrewRooneyDrums]

Thanks Matt!

[@erikmaronde2244]

Ryan was a recommendation by the great Gene Hoglan.

[@robgas7507]

Great drum sound and he really showcases imagination with all those bell sounds. Thanks again Andrew

[@AndrewRooneyDrums]

You bet Rob

[@wolframreactor74]

Love the sound of the cymbals. Bright and crisp! Love it!

[@nathanmcintyre694]

Glad it didn't get blocked! RVP is definitely in my top five favorite drummers! Thanks!

[@AndrewRooneyDrums]

I'm so glad! Might just be that Royal Albert Hall show!?

[@nathanmcintyre694]

@@AndrewRooneyDrums that's what I was thinking, or a different person/company that did the filming.

[@Lamren]

@@AndrewRooneyDrums It's 100% the royal albert show, I know that a lot of reactors do "Deadhead" from this concert and it always get blocked, but the same song from his last concert with this band in Plovdiv never gets blocked.

[@solarwinds9363]

Yeah, in general stay away from RAH. Plovdiv so far seems safe enough. Even better... The mix puts RVP really out there, which should be good for the drum lovers.

[@1bilmore]

Another truly great drummer had never heard of. Love!This!

[@AndrewRooneyDrums]

GREAT! That's what it's all about!

[@zeigbert1743]

As far as I know Devin doesn't have a main guy but works with the drummer whose style suits the song.

[@arnefl5549]

What a master class! More of this if You please! 😊

[@AndrewRooneyDrums]

More to come!

[@tylergoodguy1194]

I think if Devin did to an album the same thing that Walter and Donald did with Aja, then we would probably have one of the best metal / jazz albums of all time. Also that fill at 6:54 is so nice

[@adriancole9681]

RVP! Such a solid, tasty, underrated drummer. Super nice dude too.

[@HKRocks]

That part towards the end he's using the double pedal and the floor Tom in triplets to create a bigger sound.

[@Ye_Old_Gregg]

Been subscribed since the first video I watched. You deserve way more. @ 8:03 I think you said it was single kick. But right after you can see his kit, he has not only dual pedals but dual kick drums. What does he only just use one?

[@icemancometh74]

Ryan is an awesome drummer and a really nice dude. Being Devy’s drummer is not for the fainthearted.

[@AndrewRooneyDrums]

You got that right!

[@LionMetalMusic-videochannel]

when we will see Nicko McBrain from Iron Maiden on this channel ?

[@thehannomeiring]

Poederooyen - Poo-duh-roy-yin. I am afrikaans (part dutch/english) I think that is it phonetically...

[@1bilmore]

Thank you!

[@jbbya6040]

I believe the blocking is less of a Devin issue; more of an InsideOut/SMI preference. So his official videos, concerts, etc uploaded by InsideOut will probably be a problem without modifications, but videos from other uploaders should be okay.

[@AndrewRooneyDrums]

100% I'm never upset at the artist

[@petemichalski487]

Love how ur vids. Keep it up

[@AndrewRooneyDrums]

Appreciate it Peter!

[@syndicateathletics7072]

he's always been amazing, s I need back in the God Awakens Petrified days..

[@herrpye]

Guilty viewer, here. But now I'm subscribed, sir. Ryan and I used to play in a band together, you should check out his drum cam playthrough of our band Terror Syndrome's track Stupidity For All. Damn fine playing and footage. Anyways, love your channel, especially when you hit guys I know ;)

[@AndrewRooneyDrums]

Thank you!!! Plenty to come :)

[@herrpye]

@@AndrewRooneyDrums oh yeah, and you pretty much nailed it the first time, it's pronounced Poe-Der-Oo-Yen

[@susannebass5503]

Great drummer 💯 you're rubbing off on me Andrew✌️

[@AndrewRooneyDrums]

YESSSSSSSSS

[@wolfgangstratocaster]

Morte gate Sorensen ! The best drummer by far in the world Check anunbis gate, or piramize or baron carta. And his best work was in Wuthering heigts

[@AndrewRooneyDrums]

Thanks for the tip!

[@GrimSRT8]

I think you guys are clearly brothers based on your looks and love of drums. 🤔

[@drakausdromgatti58]

This drummer reminds me of Danny Carey

[@Hejeval]

Hey my dude, what's up with that hoodie Have you been to Chile? I'm from Chile! 😄

[@ehcmier]

Ryan talks about his special cymbals (including a custom), in this tour vid: kzbin.info/www/bejne/eJelfXael8akeNU :)

[@AndrewRooneyDrums]

Thank you!

[@bakatterpendam7483]

amazing pakde

[@hypnosis4207]

I don't know why but this recording I love.... Is it because it's a drummer recording.... Like are we hearing the drums over the vocals and bass? Or is it me? Am I fine tuning my ear? Or the recording his heavy on drums please let me know everyone! I'm new (in drumming not the channel, I'm subbed unlike you 93% 😜) and want the feedback pleace

[@ALENABERKLAND]

I hope sometime you react to Matt Garstka and Josh De La Victoria playing “Kepler” at Meinl. It is truly AWESOME. I may be able to donate soon. I love your stuff. Take care.

[@philgallagher1]

Rather than try to pronounce his name, just do what everybody else does and call him RVP!! Also, I'm surprised you've had problems with DTP vids being blocked... Devin usually has a "relaxed" attitude to people showing his vids. Elizabeth from "The Charismatic Voice" features him regularly (and has even interviewed him), and he seemed very happy for her to continue reacting to DTP.

[@AndrewRooneyDrums]

Hi Phil! Sounds like it's an issue with the Royal Albert Hall gig only

[@hypnosis4207]

How do you only have 300 like and 4.5k views? Andrew, I can't believe people aren't subing you up! It kinda makes me upset.... Like really upsetting, Van Dam must be stiff.... #RooneyWarriors
