Eli Keszler (live)

[@vans4menu]

This is like the edging of drum solos

[@ThePersonNetwork]

8:20 interesting detail. He's playing match grip for more sound as the train passes by, then when it gets quiet again he goes back to traditional (in style of course)

[@plunderpunk2]

I have dreams of where I am drumming like this. I can recall thinking "Holy shit! This is amazing!" as I am doing it.

[@frederickgunther6609]

damn Ramsay Bolton got sick at drums

[@tcaw8813]

This guy is unreal!!! He just got a new huge fan, very inspiring. Got to go practice some rudiments now

[@onniex]

He is to the drumkit to what Colin Stetson is to the saxophone!

[@toomanywitches]

I just saw him live and I think I'm in love ❤

[@ryanjamesblanchard]

This is so different and amazing. Real artistry.

[@BigBruhh]

This guy is a game changer, fuck.

[@elricfd]

[@zorza-music]

[@jairromero6661]

[@hewi5134]

What a unique voice! Wonderful drumming.

[@fs7808]

lolllllll this guy hit on my friend in a bar in South London in like 2015/2016. I'll never forget the way he told us he was a big deal drummer from New York

[@melaniewut]

Oh god how embarrassing

[@NoiseThatLaughs]

I mean, he’s not wrong.

[@martaparik]

hahaha what was he like? uncomfortable? or cringe? tbh hes a big deal drummer from New York ahahahaha

[@movimentodoscacos]

he literally is a big deal drummer from New York, no?

[@Yeeyu77]

And you got so hurt that he didnt hit on you instead that you find and comment his video like 6 years later daym

[@Xx_Eric_was_Here_xX]

unreal

[@gpchrosa5978]

Mudo y espectante a los sucesos sonoros. Grande performance!

[@boltzmannbrain2577]

Highly impressive and mesmerizing drumming! Also loving the sample work. There's this immediate, deep connection for me, despite---or because of?---the rhythmic complexity. Great stuff.

[@pairadeau]

My nizzle...

Bonito.

[@slobberkissintl3548]

Is it also called match grip if both hands are doing chopsticks bc your hands would be matching. If you were playing with two super long pinky finger nails you had grown out and reinforced with military grade polish, that would not be match grip because although your hands would be matching, you are not gripping the striking implement, but one could and should argue that the fingernails do grip the finger, however that is coincidental to how the cells in the human body behave and should be reasonably thrown out. Have you ever woken up in the night surrounded by your drums when you for sure didn't place them there before you fell asleep? What is the clinical term for that? One last thought, I am imagining you before you became a master drummer, making a living as a hibachi chef, cutting it up like this on the grill with a spatula and anything else at hand. Just getting so close to finding your sound, so excited by what you were hearing, some people wowed by the experience, but not the person whose egg is being neglected, blackening and blackening, chopped up and sizzling, and blackening still, carcinogenic nascent jams...

[@Fiend404]

raw talent

[@RapidBlindfolds]

martial artist with it

[@unlostm8]

tekkerz

[@Redefine719]

What are those cymbals called he's using on the snare?

[@hewi5134]

Crotales

[@108mmbb]

I love this! Does anyone know what those metal disks on top of his snare are called? I want one so bad now lol

[@lucasgoudie1851]

crotales

[@jeffmorris9893]

Didn't foresee liking this at all. I do though. Quite a lot.

[@Jedlmind]

Good ol' Eli "Windchimes" Keszler.

[@jonneville2287]

Top of 17 Acton Mews, London.

[@NelsNelson]

stage left should be in the left channel but yeah cool stuff

[@svenjameister8271]

Who's brave enough to do a drumsolo on youtube that doesn't involve playing fast?

[@navmanshack1579]

yeah to be honest I'm sick of all this fast playing. I want to hear some thing more slow and melodic these days

[@eloypintos6764]

jajsjsjd isn't he playing fast then?

[@unlostm8]

4:44 (just a reference for myself to perhaps sample it ennit)

[@unlostm8]

3:50

[@paul-mw6pc]

not bad tbh, link to what you came up with?

[@JimmyStrings]

Lmao

[@saintabdullah6305]

you made a lot of changes quickly. somehow i don't believe it.

[@colin1127]

Slow tf down

[@eldiegodeshit2249]

😴

[@williamdickson9119]

FIIIIIIIIIIIIRST

[@Jay-oz5zo]

like zach hill with a lighter sophisticated touch (and here's why that's a good thing)

[@jimsykes6843]

Have you never seen any other drummers?

[@COPYCATT]

awful music

[@dakotaeaslick1733]

Very impressive but drumming devoid of groove will never make sense to me. It just feels like a sport. It should be about the music, not about the skill.

[@Gornagik]

why ya rack tom upside down dummy

[@PashmereCalace]

Cuz he’s not a fucking elitist, everything is music

[@bugged0ut]

yikes
