EL ESTEPARIO SIBERIANO - wyjaśnienie jest proste - to android. Tak technika poszła do przodu że się nie zorientowaliście że to nie jest człowiek, dobrze je robią. To model Boston Dynamics?

[@aaronmicalowe]

Did you know El Estepario Siberiano says he can't read music. He has learned everything through practice of technique.

Andrew doesn’t like El Estebario because of “tears fo for fears” drum cover.

[@mikecarter5631]

He’s a cyborg drummer sent to us from the future. His mission is to absolutely kill every beat he does.

El Estepario is the very definition of talent plus intense hard work.

[@AndrewRooneyDrums]

Hard work plus quality. Compounded.

[@Topsnap_Podcast]

100% hard work

[@anms_brk]

Hard work piled on top of an existing aptitude.

[@kippsguitar6539]

So are all great musicians

[@papalazzzaru]

@@rukapete3208 100% correct. It's not "talent" at all, it's application, desire and hard work.

[@IamMusicNerd]

His level of speed and control combination is next level. He’s a machine.

[@AndrewRooneyDrums]

Monster player

[@themusicx.plorer7548]

I mainly emphasize his control, and fast interesting phrases in the chops, which are varied and use different rudiments. I wouldn't say he is one of the fastest I have seen, attempting not not to sound like a hater, but trying to be objective.

[@znail4675]

I think the key here is the obvious part to non-drummers listening, he sounds good.

[@SynicalDan]

He’s really a talent that transcends drumming alone. I’ve binged his videos. He’s a great motivator and generous with his time and talents. We all can learn a bit from him.

[@AndrewRooneyDrums]

💯👌

[@papalazzzaru]

No, in his own words, it's not "talent". Talent doesn't exist. It's application, desire, and hard work.

[@GuyCoyle]

Talent is an insult to musicians who have put in insane hours of work get to the level they are

[@The_Situation]

FFS. Here's the 'talent word' police. Talent exists. Practice exists. They aren't mutually exclusive. A person who has more talent will likely need less practice to reach the same level as the other. Some people are born with 60IQ and some 140+. We aren't all built the same. Get over it.

[@AndrewRooneyDrums]

I did not consent to that. It's just getting silly now. Someone stop him before he hurts himself! My El Estepario Siberiano Playlist | kzbin.info/aero/PLqspKksRqaUWhafEyPi8fM8a7ko--RkyG

[@rickseuferer5418]

Been watching him for about a year now and seeing his growth, from a layman’s perspective, has been amazing. Left hand keeps getting better and grooves tighter. Love your analysis and enthusiasm. Keep up the great work.

[@AndrewRooneyDrums]

Couldn't agree more. Thanks Rick!

[@natemoothart6967]

I'm pretty sure I've watched all of his videos and this is by far the smoothest, tightest, most technical yet flowing performance he's ever done! One big takeaway I have is that despite the wild drumming the track did not feel overplayed, that's a huge accomplishment!

Yes and no, for me. It's amazing of course, but would you just listen to this as a song? I would say no - it's a wall of drums.

[@paulwood5803]

First time I have seen this guy, WOWSER! The first thing I notice is that he seems to be barely holding the sticks, it's lke he is balancing them in his hands right at the very end of the stick. Very smooth and he just seems to float through the song. Incredible.

[@AndrewRooneyDrums]

Yup total control and freedom. Letting the stick do all the work.

[@mariodiaz5872]

He is the groovefather, the only one on earth who can wear that t-shirt,not enough words to describe it

[@AndrewRooneyDrums]

YES!

[@markathey1510]

He is a great player- sort of established a signature style. I think all or most of the drummers you react to also have carved out a style and a "voice " to communicate their ideas and delivery. What sets him apart in my opinion is their is nothing lost in translation and its obvious and so relatable- nearly impossible to duplicate- but nevertheless relatable to the Average drummer or non drumming viewers that may not understand the subtle nuances and other techniques that are typically only recognized by someone (like you) with a in depth knowledge of drumming. He is also so very very entertaining!! He has captured what I think the average person considers a "modern drummer". Fast, precise, talented and doing all so effortlessly. I think he will inspire alot of young players and glad the drum community has discovered him.

[@AndrewRooneyDrums]

Well said Mark!

[@Jskb04]

He’s my favorite drummer of all time, so unbelievably talented

[@papalazzzaru]

No, in his own words, it's not "talent". Talent doesn't exist. It's application, desire, and hard work. See his video called Talent is a Lie.

Truly exciting style!

[@joshuafranz1595]

Been drumming on and off half my life! And taken it seriously the later half of that half! Ive immersed myself in a world of drums and music, countless hours practicing, listening, engaging, surrounding myself in drums amd music. I cant think of a single drummer thats able to give me chills solely from the patterns and accents/feels he or she able to create. EL Estepario does this in like 30 secounds

[@AndrewRooneyDrums]

🙌

[@farn451]

hands like a prison doctor... chops for days but also has a deep and sweaty pocket as needed. how he gets so much snare crack with so little vertical movement of the stick... so relaxed fluid. one of the greats.

[@AndrewRooneyDrums]

💯agree on all counts Jack. Outrageous

[@willruss]

ead10 with a little compression is pure magic for lower cost recording setups

[@nickphipp1949]

It has been said that mastery of any skill - drumming, football, chess, anything - takes around 10,000 hours. ESTEPARIO SIBERIANO is proof of what you can achieve with 20,000+ hours and devoting 8+ hours a day to every aspect of your craft. Plus, he's only 26, so he has a good 50 years practice and development ahead of him. He's actually venturing where no musician (let alone drummer) has gone before. Mind blowing stuff.

[@wilkowilkins363]

More than just practice. Talent.

[@kejefelcz]

God I love this cover! Probably the most of all of his covers .. the combination of MJ, the remix and his drumming, unbelievable. I've seen it like hundred times already. And I really like your reaction, priceless ;))).

I MEAN REALLY!!!! I’ve just finished an awesome practice feeling satisfied with my accomplishments! And I watch this video! He depresses me to the point that I feel I am so far behind time! Did this guy sell his soul to the devil? How in the hell does he do this? I can live in my studio and play 10 hours a day for the next five life spans and can’t see myself ever playing remotely close to this alien! Wow, I take my hat off to him too! Truly speechless now! Peace and love to all!

[@TheDivergentDrummer]

Repetitive motion and muscle memory are what do the trick. That, and BALANCE. you need to practice everything equal and opposite. What you do on your right hand, do on your left foot, then rotated it to all positions equally. Once you have balanced muscle memory, you can focus on increasing speed. He also has studied many techniques in order to be able to play super fast consistent singles, on literally any limb, at any time.

[@cayman1415]

I love you talking over the video's you do a great Job !

[@AndrewRooneyDrums]

Thank you so much!

[@gonzalollach1189]

Yes, Sir. In the end you can feel the musicality in his performance. Personally I don't care about fast musicians, in any field, but when they can deliver beauty through sounds. Great analysis.

[@AndrewRooneyDrums]

Thanks Gonzalo!

[@jakebenoit1458]

Great content man, the effort you put into editing in the little comedic beats, is appreciated. I love your references.

[@MattCanev419]

I really do enjoy hearing your Perspectives, theories, philosophy AND advice etc. not just during the performance, but in your post performance discussion as well. Im always interested to hear more of what you have to say post performance but you often end at that point. Which is fine too, i quite enjoy your channel. Also, i do like hearing your immediate post performance passion as opposed to editing it out (kind of like a post game interview when the athlete is still running on some emotions, thats when you get the good stuff, the raw emotion). Even if you feel you ramble or stumble for proper wording or whatever, it would be great to sometimes leave the raw post performance emotion in the video, ramblings and all. In addition, i quite enjoy your extended post performance discussions. I think a lot of your subscribers would like to hear more of your in depth thoughts (although some dont like the performance interrupted, as where i prefer your interjections..i assumed your subscribers are here to see what you have to say) but for sure after the performance. Oh and btw thank you for introducing me to el esteparios channel last year!!

[@AndrewRooneyDrums]

Ooh that’d be a good comparison 👀

[@jerrywalker6043]

This guy leaves more talent on the top of his throne after a practice session than most drummers could ever hope to possess. The guy is so good, it's almost disturbing.

[@Paul-iu3eu]

It's Black Magic!! Outstanding!!

[@davidburke7085]

The observation that its "just not a speed element, but a musicality element" is spot on. ANd its what makes him as great as he is. Clearly just playing the drums at warp drive isnt going to produce the visceral results this guy can generate. Hes truly the most magnificent speed drummer Ive ever seen, and the reason why is, he can make it notably musical as well. Hes not simply riffing at warp drive, hes adding something new and creative to the song and its all the more spectacular given the sound produced can only be achieved with an incredibly accurate high speed method that I personally havnt seen reproduced at this level before. Its clean, tight and wicked fast in the extreme, and its also musically competent. BUT, (theres always a but), this takes me back to my earlier days of exploring rock music when my tastes were almost evenly split between progressive rock and Heavy Metal, with some leaning into speed metal as my favorites. And the critical thing that brings me to this point is I recall the rather thrilling feeling in 1980 of listening to Fast Eddie Clark on Motorheads Ace of Spades album and literally thrilling to the literal speed of the guitar playing that also tended to led a musicality to the songs in some very interesting ways I had never experienced with any regularity at that speed. This really felt different and exceptional and it raised the eye brows of several of my musician friends who also loved it. We literally debated frequently the over al quality of numerous guitarists, and Fast Eddie was often raised in those debates because he was both fast, and had the ability to still somehow add some musicality. It was new, and exciting to us, despite the fact Motorhead as we found out already had some history prior to Ace of Spades. BUT, at the end of the day, once we had totally become more familiar with the style, the speed, from a few different guitarists in speed metal, and what it could and could not do on a track, we better began to properly analyze its limitations and benefits that wild speed brough to a song. And the end result was, there were indeed significant limitations in its ability to express broad musicality and similarly limitations to produce notably very significantly different soundscapes to the songs. It had some decent musicality, but the depth and breadth was naturally limited to some notable degrees because of the sheer frequency of the rapid fire notes played. After listening to the general style many times, it became apparent that while initially very thrilling and sort of breath taking to hear, it wasnt exactly the most expressive or meaningful guitar playing over all by any stretch. I can definitely say as a massive drumming fan who regularly can listen to most records and concentrate on specific instruments through out to really grasp the recording, that when I listen to this drumming it strikes me EXACTLY the very same way listening to Fast Eddie playing guitar did. Yes, absolutely breath taking. SO spectacular for what it is, you cannot help but bow and tip your hat to this kind of truly phenomenal skill. And it cannot be spoken of with enough compliments to say how fantastic it is to have a drummer who can play like this around. We deserve it, and hes simply exceptional at what he does. PERIOD. But its limited. Its limited by its very spectacular nature. Of course, it for any reason, its the style one really thrives on, this guy IS your man. But if you must have more variation, and even more musical expressiveness and more versatile stylings and over all unpredictability, this isnt your guy. But, make no error here. What this guy does is simply otherworldly for what he does. And Im truly glad he exists. Hes wonderful to listen to and watch.

His triplets,sextuplets and sixteenths work, especially between snare & bass drum,are mind boggling at times.If he can fit something tasty in place anywhere throughout a song,he does it because he can & he can't help it if his version of tasty is a million times better than any of ours. The two may be totally different by many miles at what they do, but El Estepario is to the social media drumming world that Jeff Porcaro was to the session drumming world. Both of them are famous and have most definitely set the bar for how to do things right.Props to both of them,regardless of whether they're here on Earth or in Heaven.
