Mike Hetzel: "Subdivisions" - RUSH (Drum Cover)

[@brandonkain9231]

Def one of the best covers on here...flawless execution...the professor would be proud

[@Rubbers-bn2cf]

But there is another guy that does almost the same as Niel

[@bluehiker07]

Best cover I've seen as well. Love your ghost notes.

[@superrushfan3]

Excellent!!!

[@luish777]

Beautiful timing best one yet love the work on the ride and that's one hell of a drum set. Bravo!!

[@j.t.thomas9242]

It’s criminal at this point this video has only 3.8K views. This dude is technically flawless. If he was one of those hot girls who play drums on YT who are talented but no where near as skilled as this guy this video would have 38M views…

[@ceebee8051]

This was an impressive display of drumming skills. Nice job!

[@alfredomunoz9507]

[@bileski9028]

How could one dislike this?

[@ladrums1000]

Just jealous people. He nailed it.

[@natew4724]

jealousy

[@AlejandroRodriguez-pt7iw]

awesome!!! well played my favorite Rush song!!! R.I.P Neal.

[@JK-g62]

My fave Rush tune also...with Analog Kid coming a very close 2nd!

[@guitara68]

So many people can play this note for note and don’t get me wrong, they sound great but finally!!, someone got the phrasing right! I mean, I could feel it the flow and intent of each beat!! Well done sir 👍🏽👍🏽

[@mikehetzel]

guitara68 Thank you! :)

[@JK-g62]

@@mikehetzel hey Mike just saw your Subdivisions cover. Ive seen a few other drummers cover this...but i have to say...yours is my fave. You got the correct drum sounds man. They sound very close to Neils kit...maybe the splash was a hair off. Im not a drummer...but i AM a musician of nearly 40 years. Anyway...you seem to play this song using the same drums in the same order with the right rhythms and right feel. Keep doin what youre doin. Awesome cover...as others have said...Neil would be proud. Aint much better of a compliment than that!

[@DrMatey215]

First class, flawless! Awesome!

[@juliodelvalle1308]

Unbelievable

[@davedee4994]

Gees Mike ! You are the very definition of technical mastery ! It’s all so clean ! Just wonderful ! Excellent job !

[@thejohnnydavidson]

How anyone can give this a thumbs down is beyond me. Is it really that hard to just move on? This is talent 100% We need to support each other not tear them down.... Rock on Mike 🤘🏽🥁🤘🏽

[@Feather4Luv]

Great job Great Kit ......a 5 plus minute song without any flaws thanks for sharing!!!

[@touchofevil516]

As a drummer myself, this was excellent!!!

[@JZLucas]

The only cover of this song I've watched more than once. Excellent job sir.

[@mikehetzel]

Thanks J! I really appreciate it, man!

[@JZLucas]

@@mikehetzel You're welcome. Looking forward to future content.

[@chantsmagnetiques69]

So clear and precise, I will finally be able to play this song on its entirety! Thank you for the playing and the camera views!

[@Retromolarman]

Wow! Definitely the best drum cover for this song I've seen on YT. My congratulations! Peart would be proud. RIP the Professor. 🙏

[@knowyourseasons5723]

Phenomenal!!!

[@wllprkr]

Great job, one of their best, one of neil’s favorites, you did it justice bro , great job

[@tonyjeffery3]

I’d say one of the best I’ve seen, outstanding.

[@GPz84]

Same here. Played pretty much flawlessly. Dudes got some skill.

[@adrianclarke6829]

Fantastic and great that it is all so visible! On my bucket list to learn this. Oh, and you officially win the "Shiniest cymbals in the world" award! 🙂

[@richardlewis8500]

Man I can't get enough of that. Sooo clean.

[@maxadrums]

Very nice, Mike! :)

[@mikehetzel]

Maximiliam Andersson Thanks Max! I really appreciate it, man!

[@johngold1849]

Great Job!! I have trouble playing this because I dont really break it down. Watching u gave me inspiration to learn. Maybe I might post one day!

[@freegee3503]

Excellent drum mix! Crispy, clean and punchy mean! THIS is how a drum kit should sound! 👍

[@felipepelaez5785]

Excelente!

[@tonibauer8449]

You know what I love is all the people in my age group that really love Neil peart as much as me. God bless you professor. 1/7/2020. You made my birthday very sad day but I love you.

[@Stevo_Drums]

Literally the best drum cover of Subdivisions. I’ve seen a lot.

[@streetmachine79]

Best cover I’ve seen of this track as well! Awesome playing!

[@tommysonnier9848]

Great execution and the drums sound perfect!

[@jeffmoon8217]

Out of 7 playing Subdivisions in my opinion you are the winner. Clarity, prediction toms sound EXACTLY like Neil's Keep on keeping on brother

[@Oliveiramso]

Que trabalho fantástico. O genial e já saudoso Neal Peart ficaria extremamente feliz e orgulhoso com essa execução perfeita.

[@frankj.difiore5425]

That was great! My song goal to learn how to play. RIP to the great Neil Peart

[@timgrooveman]

[@2112musician]

I think this was the the first video I ever saw you playing on and I was like "Damn, this guy nailed Neil Peart!" Glad to see your progress with YYNOT bro. Can't wait to hear more of your original music with them, I heard one track and was blown away by it.

[@mzens1]

You’re the man.

[@rushman667]

Best cover I’ve seen

[@kevinmurphy9982]

Spot freakin on man...wow...Neil would also be proud of your mastery of such a technical song. Well done sir.

[@tiendiren]

You nailed it so brilliantly!!

[@James-kb8to]

Well done, sir, and nice kit!

The best cover around ...

[@juanpablovalencia2065]

This the best cover of Subdivisions so far. Saludos desde México ❤️

[@richardlewis8500]

35 yr NP fan and drummer says good job man. Very nicely done. I can't do it. Lol

[@billynolanjr2266]

I am dumbfounded that this got some thumbs down ?? Absolute idiots ! Fantastic drum cover ! Much respect and not one missed anything ! Awesome man , thank you for this !

[@mikehetzel]

Billy Nolan Thanks!! Glad you liked it! :)

[@triciakelly3929]

Great sound dude

[@warrengauthier4699]

Peart was a world class drummer and this is not easy to play. 🤘

[@kevindohn6776]

Pretty friggin' awesome ! I've been trying to play this since it came out, and I still can't get it perfect.

[@robertclarkguitar]

Kick ass. Makes me want to cram an ekit out here in my little camper. I moved to guitar in 2018 after 10 years no drumming. I played 27 years and missed it so damn much. Sadly I had to put my priorities first due to the kids and eviction risk. I wouldn't trade the custody for the drums. Now I can finally play again. Just need the funds to get a safe kit to hold me over and make music on my channel. Ironically not a single drum video yet. Hahaha

[@matthewparker7515]

Perfect. 👍🏻

[@Dan_Mahoney]

Perfect

[@redtiger676]

Rush fans: I know of all the best Neil Peart drum covers there is on KZbin Mike Hetzel: You think you do, but you don't
