Lets not forget about DOMI, she is the other half of JD beck. They are both so talented.

[@ant3352]

Theyre both fully fledged on their own. Fun when they get together but not exclusive.

[@bossHogOG]

Name’s in the title.

[@moriyokiri3229]

Don’t forget the people who make the instruments too and the people who make the drumsticks and the people who make the microphones and the people who make the electricity too. Shame on you for not mentioning them, you must not think they are important.

Damn so not only is jd beck an incredible drum player, he's also getting the juice

JD picking up his bag after the gig pulling out a brush and starting to brush his hair ... that really killed me :)

[@AndrewRooneyDrums]

Haha Bernhard

[@jorymil]

Yeah. That was a little swag....

[@lxced_]

gotta stay fresh

[@DaveyL1954]

I am a 66 year old keyboardist, who has seen it all, done it all blah blah....then I discovered the following people. JD and Domi, Moonchild, Knower and Snarky Puppy. This was about three years ago. It was definitely life altering. In my day my heroes were Herbie Hancock, Chick Corea, Jan Hammer and Joe Zawinul. Mahavishnu Orch, Return to Forever and they all inspired me to play. And improve. Then I reached a level that was up there in the heavens where the only people to play with were dithering around with three chords, rock and roll and sh*t like that. So I took my skills into education. Then three years ago Moonchild came to KZbin. I was blown away with Amber's voice and the skills that the band demonstrated. This lead to all the rest of the gang. They are all part of the same scene. Fortunately. They are spawning with each other, creating technically magnificent material, with small and large ensembles. In return for their glorious music I have started practicing again. Working against metronomes, and composing too for a mate who plays sax. Wild jazz, stupid time sigs. And it's all down to today's youth. I'm truly inspired. The only thing I regret is not being 50 years younger to get a piano lesson from Domi.

[@telluscitizen]

Hear ya. Check out Dirty Loops as well.

[@iamkubic]

That is amazing! May I interest you with this band called Vulfpeck as well!

[@brianmi40]

Check out Jacob Collier, we're lucky to live during the lifetime of a certified genius.... your man Herbie once asked him, "what the hell was that chord?" His ability to use not just Perfect Pitch, but microtonal perfect pitch, combined with vocal arrangements where he usually has more than 300 tracks (he does walkthroughs of his work in Logic Pro), the ability to reharmonize in unbelievable ways, massive keyboard chops along with amazing abilities on other instruments... See Joon Lee's interviews with him to go deep...

[@brianmi40]

(cont.) start with these for Jacob Collier, and imagine being raised from a baby being asked, "how does that SOUND make you FEEL"? kzbin.info/www/bejne/aoGsfoWVpKyFmbc (Jobim would be proud) and how does a 20 something write this, that isn't 120 years old (listen to the lyrics. yeah, that's mom in the orchestra and the quartet above...): kzbin.info/www/bejne/hXe5h4Wve61krNU His RANGE of musical styles is amazing. From orchestral, pop, classical, funk, jazz and a very modern folk...

Question. Please be honest. When you see someone playing like this... compounded by the fact they are so young. Does it inspire you or make you feel like you wanna quit!? Would love to gague the temparature (without judgement) on that :)

[@EsDeib]

Kind of both? lol

[@Ozzy83666]

Always an inspiration no matter the age.

[@jaredbryce7964]

I can play a few basic beats on a kit, at this point in my life that's probably as far as I will get, but man, that kid makes you want to play a little different, experiment

[@schirikialpenquelle948]

I already gave up on life so I don't mind. Gnarharhar. Also I'm not a drummer, that probably helps. I'm a pro "getting it all wrong" air drummer though. Anyways, I am one of those metal guys and youtube made me stumble across this Zildjian Video before. Enjoyed it and enjoyed it a second time here.

[@user-oy7gz5bf2h]

Inspiration as this stage. In my 20s I'd gauge where I was relative to the age of the artists I followed. Naturally, I started geting older than some and it doesn't matter much now for my ego.

[@JayB2]

Amazing! JD is beyond ambidextrous. He's got otherworldly coordination and atomic clock level timing!

[@AndrewRooneyDrums]

Freakish

[@majesticbear6297]

Didn’t read through all the comments but surprised no ones mentioned that the drumming is basically drum and bass (jungle) from the 90’s. Essentially cut up drum samples played live. Still, pretty impressive.

[@AndrewRooneyDrums]

Yup the modern jazz aesthetic has a lot of back beat. Jojo Mayer also pioneered a lot of live electro stuff which is phenomenal

[@Robert_Herring]

The reason JD is so chill is he is a student of Sput's, has done a good many gigs with Mononeon, he knows all these guys. He's done studio work for several years at this point.

[@masonjarboe9926]

The album is out, let’s hear a review of ANYTHING off it because it is just remarkable

[@madcatproductions69]

that "little guy,making the stank face" is Aron the bassist. Check him out, you'd be also shocked at the future of music

[@michaelb.42112]

As ALWAYS Andrew, you are on the cutting edge of what's out there. I JUST discovered DOMI and JD Beck. I saw Domi's AMAZING solo on "Time Flies". Then, I saw JD on Zildjian Live, and here I am with you ! Awesome. Thanks buddy ! What's crazy is JD is 16 and DOMI is 19. WTF !!! Do I feel insecure ! 😱

[@NonEuclideanTacoCannon]

The best comment I've ever heard regarding Mononeon, was along the lines of "When the acid kicks in and your grandma's quilt picks up a bass and starts playing Weather Report"

[@Iamadrummer]

Spud and his band Ghost Note have done several of these sessions with different drummers sitting in. Larnel Luis is now the drummer in Snarky Puppy. Spud now does Ghost Note. The cool bassist is the one from Prince's band. Spud is terrific in arranging and orchestrating music. JD Beck is very similar to Jojo Myere in playing style. The keyboardist sitting in plays with JD Beck normally as a duo.

[@AndrewRooneyDrums]

Thanks Jeff! 🥁👌

[@pastense]

Wow, spelling all the names so wrong lol. It's SPUT and LARNELL LEWIS and JOJO MEYER.

[@tritone11]

JD Beck sounds like a highly technical version of Questlove.

[@AndrewRooneyDrums]

YES

[@CitizenKang]

Domi and JD just soid out 4 nights at Blue Note in NYC. They are the best.

[@Lan_ny]

I just realized the drums/ keys and guitar at 6:36 are nearly the exact same that they used for TWO SHiMPS

[@andrewsharpe4764]

10:07 you can achieve a pretty fine electronic sound with compression and gates, but I think JD is just that good that he’s hitting in exactly the right spot with exactly the right velocity every funking time. Ok there’s probably a short, soft gate on it.

[@BrianYochem]

JD Beck and Domi are insanely talented. It's just crazy. You should check out Louis Cole. He is a multi-instrumentalist but he's got plenty of his drum work on youtube. Another dude with a style that is his own.

[@meredithheath5272]

Another "Jacob Collier"?

[@polarxta2833]

@@meredithheath5272 No - very different. Lois work in Clown Core attests to that - in a good way :)

[@pbelancsik]

Seeing him play with Reggie Watts was unreal. Unfortunately, most musicians he plays with aren’t on his level, as opposed to the JD/Domi duo. But a lot of it also boils down to feel. Example: going to see Vulfpeck at Red Rocks (all virtuoso musicians), and this band called Khruangbin opened for them. Masses of people were literally leaving the venue a few songs into Vulfpecks set.

[@danneu8]

You gotta watch more from this series. They're all amazing.

I've been at JD Beck's hair length a few times in my life... I dunno, just saying, lol... It's kind of on the border of nice long hair and a hard to control mess. I have no idea why he insists to keep it at the hard to control mess state, but who am I to judge...

[@mauricemcilwaine8470]

I love Jd becks cymbal work he actually reminds me of my favourite drum video of all time you might want to check it out Andrew, Charlie Antolinis rendition of Caravan the cymbal work is unreal. Btw the Bass player is MONOZEON

[@austenbrinkley2206]

All of them. Stupid good.

[@jimatyeo]

It sounds to me like as you called it he has listened to a lot of JoJo Meyer. But also I hear an influence by Venetian Snares. There is a fellow on KZbin called I think Mike Rozier who does an amazing job with a Venetian Snare song and Meshell Ndegeocello song.

[@intherapy1]

He's got small splashes on his snare and toms, gives them a more distorted synthetic sound. tried it before but if your snare isn't perfectly even they just slide everywhere(unless you tape em I guess). This guy reminds me of a young IIan Rubin.

[@intherapy1]

[@meredithheath5272]

Know zero about any instrument, but just discovered Yusef Dayes, who often plays with Tom Misch.... Different styles for both of these aforementioned guys, but still I like them so much better than, as someone else said - the styles of drummers of an " earlier era", esp. the rock drummers, who seem more all over the place, with more accented beats, etc.... I never liked rock, anyway... We are so fortunate to experience those who keep the genre of jazz alive, and evolving into a freshly combined "amalgamation" of newer styles of music.

I wonder if they actually wrote that performance into music notes/sheets first? I bet that drummer must be touched his first kits around below 5yo.

I’m a guitar player and I’ve watched videos of young kids playing the blues. And are pretty good! But!👆They haven’t lived, loved and lost love. So they have yet to put “emotion” into their playing. I’m talking about “real emotion”, not just getting emotional. Does that make sense? I’m referring to all musicians, drummers, bass players, horn players, keyboard players, etc. etc..

[@toddlatorreofficial]

First off, at 16 he has a ton of talent. Subjectively, it lacks that finesse of the wrist groove and just good pocket of so many contemporaries. Perhaps the snare and drum sounds are what is also killing it for me. Just sounds too mechanical with a bit much overplaying, i.e. not much breathing room. Talented drummer, he's got chops and killer sticking, but overall just not feeling this particular drumming for a variety of reasons. But in all fairness, at 16 he is leaps and bounds beyond most his age and I wish him all the best. Surely a promising future which is awesome! I remember Tony Royster Jr. at that age.

[@letho44]

Have you ever thought about reacting to your subs music? Like, have a reaction playlist to smaller local sized bands and giving your reactions/opinion on how the drummer performed during the song. Maybe once a week just pick out one of your subs songs and give a reaction to it.

I actually have! I love that idea. How could I implement that though!?

[@brocknstein1435]

​@@AndrewRooneyDrums I think that is a question for all of us to answer. I would make a short little vlog and ask all of us what you could do to implement your fans bands into your channel. The only idea that I have come up with is a possible name which could be Fan Submission's Sundays.

Great video ! If you're interested in watching young drummers I suggest you check out Nathan Camarena from the band CHON. His playthrough of Sleepy Tea is quite good.

Thank you Firas! 🤙
