Evans Drumheads: Daru Jones and The Ruff Pack Perform "With You"

[@RA2Music]

Daru Jones is one of the most unique voices in drumming today. His unconventional approach to virtually every aspect of playing ( set up, drum cymbal sizing, interchangeable grip, etc.) is really a trip to watch. This is a great tune with a stellar groove. Watched it a few times.

[@drumrnva]

The feel of the beat in the early part of the tune seems to exist somewhere between Rockabilly-Swing and I-can't-play-this.

[@bakerfam1000]

Him and ?uestlove totally bring dragging the beat to a new level I love this stuff

[@philadrian7618]

All I know is that the guitarist's jacket was off between :39 and :43.

[@EvansDrumheadsOfficial]

Hybrid Coated on the snare, Black Chrome on the floor tom, EMAD Onyx on the kick.

[@DonaldSturgeAnthonyMcKenzieII]

[@Artikulo71]

Awesome Group!\m/

[@lex.cordis]

Love it.

[@EvansDrumheadsOfficial]

Gotta love the EMAD Onyx!

[@SeanIsaacTng]

this groove has some different textures and color that is so rare in music! specially at the start, the slight fluctuation pulse is something only few can pull off! QUIT CHO HATIN start APPRECIATIN~!

[@PunyapatFungtammasarn]

Super tight snare

[@willcochran5555]

It's got a hybrid head on it

[@OfficialDarkCrusade]

what size bass drum is that??!!

[@desperanto.]

It's quite easy to get that sound. Aim the bass drum mic towards the edge of the reso head (no hole, no muffling). Small bass drums (e.g. 16") are great for recording. I made a video with my floortom as a bassdrum: /watch?v=vX4KPzS7YQg Btw. I love this video. I don't see any problem with his technique (neither I care). His playing is tremdous, somewhere between straight and swung. Playing like that is very tricky.

[@tierangreen]

Hahaha owned!!!

[@menriquez89]

It occurred to me that this jam is kind of like a modern Meters song.

[@donrenato]

Looks like he's using an 8x20 woofer for his bassdrum.

[@broodjekaas6945]

sounds like dilla

[@EvansDrumheadsOfficial]

Absolutely!

[@apinakapinastorba]

1:50, hardly an 18'x12'... Depth is more like 8, size 16?

[@GeoffBosco]

Yeah, a lot drummers with an more than a few ounces of creativity tend toward wonky technique.

[@ruifaustino]

T. Monk reincarnated as a drummer.

[@liamharris8184]

18 x 12?

[@AquaAnim]

@Will Strantz you really should not let jt bother you

[@EvansDrumheadsOfficial]

Then focus on his groove :-)

[@DavidKrautscheid]

to all people who say he is shit blablabla..the simple beats makes the music not the complex ones and also he plays to the song

[@jacobc3752]

Heads?

[@zaxzaxx4561]

They certainly are.

[@bsm6776]

more impressed with the guitar

[@PeLuK2303]

Why?

[@garym.3113]

I want my 5 minutes back .

[@ianbridges6040]

Why?

[@rsturner2002]

I guess untight music is a new artform

[@rosariocraigband6911]

rsturner2002 LOL

[@gretelhanzel9789]

Didn't know Mike Tyson played drums...

[@brownspottedcat]

thats a tad racist, no?

[@apinakapinastorba]

One can't hear the technique anyway ;D So why to bother :) All about the music man :D

[@sherwoodmoseley5466]

He doesn't ask permission.

[@evandrummerdodd]

I've tried for years to enjoy his style, but I sincerely can't. Not saying he's bad. I just will never understand why he's so big.

[@TheXrythmicXtongue]

His wardrobe bothers me. XD

[@bobbydinamita]

soo little and such a fat sound,(that bass drum)

[@TomxMeans]

You're missing the point

[@ricohorton]

i don't like the kick sound.

[@elliotspeller-mason8729]

Am I the only one here who thought this was a bit shit? .....

[@Moog168]

Nah you just don't understand what's being played :)

[@elliotspeller-mason8729]

Moog168 You're not wrong about that :)

[@HaloAdmiral]

+Elliot Speller-Gillott He's a very good drummer. He really knows what he's doing when it comes to what is need to make this song truly flow. His technique is also really solid.

[@elliotspeller-mason8729]

Derpmuffins The Great​ don't get me wrong, I think that he is a very drummer, I just think the technique he uses in this video is a bit... well it makes him sound out of time

[@elliotspeller-mason8729]

Derpmuffins The Great​ I looked him up in the first place because I was impressed with his drumming in Lazaretto by Jack White

[@ZombieStrantz]

His technique bothers me sooo much.....
