It's even easier to keep your own groove if your tinnitus is dialed up to eleven.

[@tomsayer5186]

It also helps to listen to the voices in your head

[@3vamtb]

eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee 😂🤣

[@cmd_f5]

This kinda stuff makes me miss jamming with people. Not in a serious band context or anything, just riffing out for a couple hours and having fun.

[@MadMarco]

Same!!

[@coreyw5981]

My self-producing solo artist friend has been so fixated on recording lately that he can never just jam. The moment we come up with one part, he has to spend the whole day now recording a song. Even though he never plans to do anything with it. So i go from wanting to free jam to having to play alone to a metronome all day

[@joelalexander4513]

I'm sorry. Time for a new jam buddy.@@coreyw5981

[@apieceofgarbage7301]

Really cool! I do feel like it's in a way easier for Cory to keep track of his playing here as the bassline grooves in itself. With a simple bassline with a lot of space it's hard to keep track of where you are between the notes. That's just how I feel though.

[@user-ff5yt5dy2h]

Exactly my thoughts, i was going to comment that ! Many people think that it's harder to keep track of the rhythm with busy and fast paced lines, when in fact it's the absolute opposite, it's way harder to keep the rhythm playing a slow bassline with lots off space between the notes So the video was cool, but the first one was more impressive ;)

[@hubertried19]

Yes... more then in part 1 but still to easy for the bass player timingwise :-)

[@mangolassi_.]

Agreed, not really a challenge here. That being said, Petar is actually focussing on sounding good and not so much on throwing Cory off.

[@AndyNocturne]

Crazy. That bass line was so groovy it kept the drummer in the pocket

[@AchselFord]

Haha, this time it actually seemed more like Petar was hardly capable of even trying to throw anyone off, but rather being held captive himself by Cory's infectious bass riff! Insanely great stuff whatsoever though!

[@contramachina354]

this is wat happened

[@CaseyHardman]

I’m not convinced this series isn’t just a ploy to deliver us the tightest, funkiest beats on the planet.

[@joelalexander4513]

Oh, it is. It's gotta be.

[@patdry]

Petar is literally one of the coolest people on earth.

[@huntermclaren322]

1:54 cruelty

[@Mojo_Musik]

Great idea to use the drummer's cymbals to dry those sweaty socks.

[@BillyGates1721]

lmao huahahahahaaaaaa ! I guess they dry up very quick because the rythm is so H O T 🔥🔥🔥 you have to watch out that they don't vaporise into "magic" dope

[@RyanMcQuen]

This one felt more in the pocket than part 1 (meaning the drums were less disruptive to track to). I still loved it though.

[@andrewblair6770]

Those singles on the left hand ride bell are nuts

[@ChontosDrumLessons]

I love these guys. 😂 KEEP IT UP CORY AND PETAR! Saw you guys in Dallas last year. Epic performance. 💪🏻

[@stephenstange4194]

I tried keeping time myself while watching… couldn’t do it for more than 8 -12 bars. No idea how you guy do that. That’s probably why I make my living in IT not music 😂 Mad respect for Cory and ALL the musicians in the Wong Notes. What a collection of talent.

[@dlabrador]

Thoroughly enjoyed both of these

[@raffytwoscoops]

This is so painful yet so elegant

[@mrtrainman4148]

we need a longer version of this

[@Theblindcritic]

They make it look so easy

[@Zavodney]

I could watch hours of this. Both of yall talented as hell. In the pocket is an understatement lol

[@saulnine7786]

Now we need Cory to keep displacing the groove while Petar plays something simple and slow on the drums.

[@stephenparker7650]

Petar tries to throw Cory off, inadvertently greats coolest funk groove of all time.

[@tweakrr99]

Petar's snare is just so incredible

[@spacemonster8954]

I only there was a music genere were shenanigans like that make it to the final record, i would like to listen to that shit if i need to be hyped up.

[@KevinLuWX]

There is. It's called progressive rock

[@flynnedwards]

Prog metal, jazz

[@stryker819]

Love this and love improve! Grew up playing prog metal so it’s in my soul! This would be a breeze for me as well!

[@RonWinter335]

This is excellent!!

[@MODZTO]

I feel like guitarists, especially bass guitarists have good enough feel to play their instruments deaf lol

[@jamesmarkham7489]

As always just amazing control. Why do you play slap on a jazz bass? Bc it always sounds so good!

[@TheDisplacerBeast]

Damn, petar J! This guy was insane live! Like actual highest point of any concert I’ve seen.

[@lanayabaker]

Petar is gold!

[@Ben-ic1ve]

Excuse me while I have this on loop for the next 8.5 hours

[@gotmilk91]

So CW just keeping it altogether - holding it down for the big drum solo 🎵🥁🎶

[@brennenmoloney4736]

What does he have on the cymbals? Looks like a nice way to redice the sound without crushing the tone. I might want this for my setup to save my bandmates the volume. Incredible drumming from this guy as well.

[@bradoliver9324]

Just a bundle of dried pasta

[@joelalexander4513]

Probly a fuckin beanbag, bro. Of the long variety. Big assed mini bean bag. Not quite a door sweep beanbag, but a longey just the same.

[@horstkampfgarten5768]

Petar needs his own Drum-Show!

[@00jp11]

Music like this somehow perfectly hits exactly my taste of music, it is amazing.

[@mrdrumerni]

You two are kings! Greetings from Serbia...

[@GHRiz]

Petar is a madman!

[@shell_pink]

코리아재 베이스도 잘 치셨네... 드럼 저리 흩어져 있는 것처럼 보이면서도 정교한 플레이가 참 경이롭다

[@charlescheatum9585]

part three please

[@Imblakeimblakethatsrght]

i love this

[@00jp11]

I love this :D

[@timkang6338]

No words. Drummer is a beast

[@s3b_Leney]

One of my favourite things to do as a drummer is just randomly start playing 5/4 over a 4/4 song an watch everyones reaction.

[@patrickmckinney5974]

After seeing Cory's bass chops, I wish he and Joe would have switched instruments at Vulfpeck's recent stint in Brooklyn. But maybe you guys did. I was just at the opening show.

[@paulwhetstone0473]

Nice groove.

[@spursffs]

Loving that base tune. any chance you could share the notes please ? :)

[@captaindsnuts9451]

Drummer had a much harder time than basis on this one

[@emem2756]

And than "he f**cking left the band"

[@bw6138]

This is how Tool writes songs. 😂

[@mikegil107]

i first hear this guy from cory's videos...he is a beast drumer!!!!

[@MotoLen51]

Petar is evil and I LOVE it!

[@Eric_In_SF]

No, that bass player was locked in. I saw this video More’s drummer tries to throw himself off. Me and my old bass player used to do this and it was really fun but we used to work together to try to throw each other off instead of just trying to throw off a loop which is near impossible. Also, this drummer is a bit painful to watch. He’s got chops, but he just looks so mechanical and awkward.

[@mitchwarren1600]

My inability to play would really throw the bass off ! He would leave

[@Ondolite]

Good music.

[@benbenzon]

what's those cloth on all cymbal ?! i want them so bad!!

[@AlbinoJedi]

Dang that was tight.

[@mihaivasilian3924]

Nah nah nah, that was a looper 😂

[@user-wd5xk8bz7r]

sooo tight

[@SuperLuke3]

what an unreal drummer

[@myautobiographyafanfic1413]

1:55 I think he realized he almost got him, and then eased up on him.

[@someguy1865]

The dude doesn't fail

[@user-sv8fz3pr9g]

Yeah Cory and Petar, See you in Berlin 🇩🇪

[@Brandondrumkc]

In my last trio i was fortunate to play with a absolute beast of a bass player and we would do stuff like this and push it till our guitar player would get lost lol

[@gustafsone]

Those poor hi-hats need a couple of sandbags to anchor them down. I'm surprised they didn't fall over at some point from Petar's ferocious right foot!

[@jaypaulson5181]

All about hearing- no- feeling the subdivisions… bandmate chemistry!

[@jpyoungs]

In the high school halls, in the shopping malls.

[@HapyLLIuTeJIb]

It was actually pretty easy except the 5 seconds starting at 1:18, and even that was only because the drummer really exaggerated with the loudness and intensity :)

[@necodragon8389]

Where is Joe Dart sigunature bass?

[@SpeedyDolphin27]

tried the last one with my drummer.. needless to say i can’t do this slap and keep time

[@HMan-zu6bf]

As a bassist, he careful when you go to sleep.

[@daviddicara991]

Nice Guys! The problem here is that even if Cory lets the kids play with knives, you two have been playing together for so long and are so familiar with each others time feel, that its impossible for either of you to get lost! This excercise is totally different if you do it with someone you don't know!!

[@joelalexander4513]

Like one of the kids, with or without a knife? Yeah...that's scary.

[@The0nlyy]

1:10 was insane man

[@huntermclaren322]

sensational

[@Ben-ic1ve]

I don’t know how we got to that ending statement 😅

[@PedroMachadoBorges]

he´s so fast on the drums the video cant keep up!

[@mattwright466]

**PEH-TAR JAN-JICK**

[@Alsbustnloose]

Family 💕

[@cmacpan]

Drummer could have gone further 😂 but OK

[@davidjefferys3233]

Who is the drummer !?

[@taylorshykes87]

Well. Time to shed.

[@cykelolle9540]

You can't go Wong Sir...

[@yesdeere1376]

😂👍🏻👍🏻

[@crammojophilter]

Let Adrian Belew sing over the top and you basically have late '90's era King Crimson.

[@aavila1206]

Weren’t they together in the 80s?

[@ashrafibrahim3601]

Bro has trauma from watching his kids

[@andresnieves2624]

jajajaja que brutal este video

[@meticulouslytender8921]

Joe Dart who?

[@aidangervais1143]

they need zack grooves to try and throw this man off ong

[@jerryg2757]

Part 1 way harder

[@shuur6743]

is he left handed drummer? that's weird but cool at the same time.

[@lkyuvsad]

If you enjoyed this, the “Nate Smith counts to 7” video is super fun if you haven’t seen it.

[@didleyscott788]

Great video and drummer

[@BrunodeSouzaLino]

Let's see if that's still possible when you don't signal where 1 and 3 are.

[@sweetegg]

I feel like this was easier for cory,

[@cyb3rk3v]

No shade but slaps better than 🎯

[@zdeneklojkasek1841]

😊😊✌✌👍👍🫀Petar Janjic ✅✅✅✅✅

[@citizen_d]

That's what the kids play with on the Balkans. And when they become adult too. So, better give them sticks and drums to play on. ;)

[@xXxWeesnaWxXx]

How is this trying to throw the bassist off, this is just a drum solo 🤣

[@eatmarth]

that shuffle is a big draw for attention I gotta say

[@aprodbassplayer]

Stay in your lane Cory.

[@lalarazafimahefa2783]

Hey, Cory Wong, congrats, you survived it 🤣🤣🤣!!! For next time, if it's not what you've already done, would it be helpful if you just... disconnect from Petar's incredible 😲👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 but nonetheless disruptive play 🥁🔥💥, and firmly keep the tempo in your head to stay hooked to his rhythm 🧏🏻‍♂🎼🥁 ?!!! Good luck 🤣🤣🤣 !!!

[@joshdixonmusic]

First

[@nomnom112]

it would bee cooler to see cory improvise as well instead of playing the same riff throuhout.

[@Pauluz_The_Web_Gnome]

The drummer needs to put way more variation in his playing!

[@Drummr88]

You need to put way more brainpower into your comments.

[@Pauluz_The_Web_Gnome]

@@Drummr88 "I'm putting so much brainpower into my comments that I'm actually losing brain cells. Is that too much?" "I'm using all the brainpower I have left after watching this video." "I'm not sure I have enough brainpower to comment on this video." "I'm going to need to borrow some of your brainpower to comment on this video."

[@dexterj5615]

Not hard to keep time when you play the same groove the whole song
