Drumeo pls pin this comment so it appears at the top in comment section.

[@pulkitmadan6381]

Drumeo thnks for another amazing upload btw.. Awesome drumming by Anika as always.

[@AaronLevyDrums]

+Matias Rodriguez It's the introduction to the fill in that song, not the song itself.

[@danielcastro8892]

Drumeo is she using the Evans hybrid on her snare?

[@patrikkarlsson9463]

Love this drummer, doesn't overplay, no notes wasted, but when the times come she can go fucking wild behind the drums. Just good musicality and feel.

[@ddrum1090]

fuck you

[@patrikkarlsson9463]

Back to the topic: Dem grooves be delish

The way she brings up the energy at the end of the song "Mister" (when is required to) is just pure magic.

[@joshuajacob6402]

Her drumming is just flawless in my opinion. It's well balanced and just flows seamlessly with the other instruments.

[@BlackTieAffairBand]

Anika is the BOMB! What an amazing and incredibly talented drummer. Thanks, Drumeo!

[@generalbenson1597]

There's a certain fluidity and malleability to the way she feels time and phrases her fills that I haven't heard since Vinnie Colaiuta. Absolutely amazing and so fun to listen to.

[@chrismallios1621]

This is in my opinion very advanced and polished drumming style. I will probably have to watch this video at least five times before I can start to digest a very small part. Very motivating. This is way over my head but I will be happy if I can pick up the basic idea and start incorporating some of the phrases. This is the first time I have been exposed to this astonishing style of drumming so now I'm hooked. Thank you Anika and everyone at drumeo.

[@D3thordesire]

Those tempo changes and switch ups are signature Kevin Tally lol 😅

[@hwangman]

Thank you Drumeo for having Anika back so quickly. She's really inspiring to watch. Great dynamics and groove on the instrument.

[@Tmidiman]

She is so musical it’s sick. So musical I could just listen to her play drums with no other instruments.

[@Verdugothewatcher]

11:17: diabolical groove. Nilles is such a master.

[@scroxydrums]

there is a mistake tho: the second beat should start with a ghost note so it is a double on hat than a ghost note and then an accented hat. Those who transcribed the groove made it look as though she plays 4 16s on hat.

[@Oldgames1000]

You should have her on the show every year to explain her new stuff. She is my favorite guest.

[@markyatchak2112]

Wow! I wasn’t familiar with Anika and now that I am, I’m thoroughly impressed and will spend time studying and learning from her. Her ability to move so eloquently between time signatures while playing incredible and complex pattens, all while staying in the pocket is truly impressive. Much kudos to Anika!! I’m happy this video popped up on my feed. She has a very unique sound too, and I’m a fan!

[@mybiggrin]

Omg she's so awesome. And I love the gentleness of these two individuals together.

[@nelsonledoux4257]

I love that she chose to leave silence @ 3:26. Stellar!

[@generalbenson1597]

Agree! I think one of the most telling things about a player, is when they choose not to play.

[@MetaDecker]

Yep, all my favorite drummers know when to play and when not too play. There is such thing as too much drumming. She's great :D

[@andrewjenkinson8948]

Yeah, that was beautiful.

[@owendurkin6292]

Monster drumming aside, the compositions are fantastic. I really feel connected to this music in a deep way. And that re-connects me to my drums. Ive been rehabbing from a car wreck for almost two years and drumming is a huge part of rewiring my brain and body. This music brings me a ton of joy and positive energy. Thanks for the inspiration!

[@thesoundgod5942]

Glad to see some one understand how amazing her writing/composing skills are, along with her amazing drumming! She is an international treasure! She is such an amazing master and student of drumming. She is the groovemeister general, Porcaro/Purdie were a huge influence, she's inherently musical, she just plain gets it!

[@danielchile76]

This is the definition of the way I play drums... 25:30 - I love listening to her stuff, humor and the passion she has.

[@bacobill]

So much feel in this drummer.. There is a passionate undercurrent that accompanies Anika's drumming no matter what she is playing.. Love this woman.. so cool :)

[@bearodriguez7958]

what a faboulous day that was.I was there and thanks for asking her one of my question😄 I highly recommend everyone to go for the full album,wont regret it.. I am in éxtasis,can't stop playing it over and over..a truly treasure

[@mjmaf1238]

Anika Niles is a Great Drummer and with very powerful originality. - A Great Light on Planet Earth.

[@TradBowBruce]

Unbelievable amount of energy! I'm out of breath just watching. Anika...just awesome...you always take it 100 feet off the ground every time you perform...incredible consistency!!!

[@NeonblueIndustries]

I'm in love...... The way to my heart is through drumming and polyrythmic and different time signatures.... Anika, there are no words for your talent and feel of playing. Keep kickin' ass, you breath of fresh air!!

[@malcelinho]

I just learned about this drummer, and now I'm compelled to click everytime I see her name

[@TopDownDrumming]

Anika is amazing. Just love her musicality and creative grooves.

[@sauravambawade9360]

3 years ago this video is what got me into drumming.!

[@anykmusic]

yessss! Keep going!!

[@mishan-theonemanband3212]

[@DrumeoOfficial]

Thank you!!

[@DailyDrumLesson]

signed!

[@adrieldiaz1980]

And best drums channel

[@PortsladeBySea]

Excellent. Almost as good as Sina Doering! 😉 🥁👍🥁

[@tempskis]

Even if you don’t even play drums

[@handy1arnwald947]

Unique talent nobody sounds or moves like her. Green with envy. Won't stop me watching more of her videos.

[@nickibuckle6423]

Love Anika! Please keep bringing her on Drumeo!!!

[@lauragrl16]

I absolutely love watching her play! She is very musical I agree with others. She is one I would love to learn from! I wish I had her creativity on drums. She is one of my favorites

[@mainwelder8292]

Anika we love you for your drums and your beautiful music!!!!! thank you....

[@henrikpetersson3463]

Always such a joy to see and hear Anika play!

[@explorationecho2366]

I am so blown away by the first performance. What a masterful delivery. WOW! Just getting started with this video and I'm so STOKED!

[@ArlindoCardoso]

Amazing drummer!!! Happy internacional woman's day to you, Anika *

[@gabrielfiestelegacy]

Isso ai! Cheers!

[@noreddinebaryane1028]

I like the episode very very much. Anika Nilles is a very talented drummer. She got her own style of playing the drum..

[@markbryant8321]

Best female drummer in my book . Always.

[@jeroenvermunt862]

The way she's plays her many brilliant ideas is great.

[@TheStudioDrummer]

Love Anika! This is my favorite drum tone that I have heard coming from her so far. Tama!

[@jloiben12]

“I really appreciate [Anika’s] approach to drumming and approach to music. [Anika] has a unique sound.” This is why I am beyond exited that Anika released a midi pack in collaboration with GGD

[@jaimelaverc2475]

You guys really should invite Anika to do some "listen once and play". It would be amazing!

[@W4RD1N8ER]

No matter how many times I watch her she is alway amazing I love her style of playing just a fantastic drummer! Gets me so pumped up on my kit.

[@bjornegan6421]

She is one of the most musical drummers I've ever heard.

[@izzy574]

Hi Anika! I saw you on Drumeo and was VERY IMPRESSED with your style of drumming. I love watching you play the drums. I haven't seen anyone else with your style!

[@heliomarCoelhodaSilva]

Gosto de ver ela tocando, ela é sensacional.

[@whanowa]

What an incredibly sexy drum setup. I just can't get enough of seeing other peoples kits, it's as individual as it gets.

[@traindawg21]

I love drummers that just stay in the pocket and keep a smooth groove. I've never been a fan of over playing. My drum teacher always taught me staying in the pocket is what real musicians love. I always love playing with Bass players.

[@ashimotoakai9599]

Thats to assume that all real musicians don't play math. AAL, luke Holland n' That guitarist dude's projects. And other math bands are bands dont have long groove and pocket sections. It isnt whether a musician is real or not but rather what the genre and music demands from the instrument.

[@fredflinstime6676]

Translation, it’s boring.

[@99beatmonster]

a total one-off ...unique approach. respect.

[@williammorgan5320]

Impressive. Obviously, a natural-born percussionist. The beats seem to flow through her. What makes her even more distinctive is her innate ability to put intricate fills together that sound amazing and return to the main frame on time. Kinda easy on the eye as well, no?

[@Grassman-me8qc]

Absolutely Blown Away.. Hope to see more the time signatures are crazy, Awesome!!!

[@brucethomson168]

Marvelous. I was enjoying her bass drum technique demonstration and got sidetracked by what she was doing with the hi-hat & snare. Simple groove with depth.

[@buckrogersofthe21stM]

wunderbar Anika...you look so happy when you play and it make watching you enjoyable.

[@mjmaf1238]

Are we looking at the best Lady Drummer in Germany and likely near the top of all Drummers in Germany and possibly on the entire planet?

[@nathancash8346]

mjmaf123 Benny Grebb???

[@princessshairil6610]

dont 4ger lars

[@mr_wessumz]

God!! After hearing her explain her 5 over 4 rhythm, and after reading Matt Garstka's latest Modern Drummer interview, I NEED TO SEE BOTH OF THEM JAM TOGETHER ONCE IN MY LIFE AND PLAY RIDICULOUSNESS AT EACH OTHER

[@jamiejiminico]

Anika is a real talent! 👏🏼👌🏼

[@lorencing]

Bravo! Blew my mind, Anika you are amazing.

[@waltercorteselli]

Very very talented drummer, she is

[@Zachary_Sweis]

Anika is awesome! Her new album is awesome! Drumeo is awesome!

[@Filip_eF]

Mister is just brilliant, great drum parts!

[@tomgadd]

The last track is simply fantastic, fantastic drumming!! Anika...thats really really good and innovative. Keep on that wonderful drumming!

[@lanceh4653]

Anika, Loved watching you on that last groove, you just had this look of relaxed joy, smiling and grooving. Keep up the good work.

[@RayRogers2012]

Anika, I greatly appreciate your drumming. You have a unique sound and style and I will definitely check out your site and look into buying your music. Your passion and enthusiasm for your work is plain to see. Rock on.

[@kvmalley]

Mind blown, that’s all!! Fantastic!

[@bettsdn]

Such grooves, and she knows when to show off and when to lay back.

[@ashmarch]

She is simply awesome.

[@grumpydrummer8960]

Real groovy rhythm patterns, Anika. I'll certainly give your patterns some practice...a lot .

[@CesarGonzalez-ru1yd]

Anika is too much... Really... My God, she's so natural... Not trying to impress anyone, overplaying anything... I insanely envy each and everyone of you that were there that day.

[@vincecu4403]

I like her tranquility when she speaks ;) She can go all over the range.

[@mikemike7345]

One of the best drumers

[@dannheb1435]

Really love Anika! You're an inspiration.

[@sky173]

and amazing drummer. Beautiful!

[@ARDrummer]

She is such a great drummer! A very unique playing style and setup as well

[@lesand5484]

Oh how much I love this track! made me click on a drumeo video for the first time since weeks!

[@louistotalcontrol]

Amazing... always love watching Anika play!

[@djevisceration2733]

every time I see this lady she is on FiRe! awesome stuff

[@leethor8947]

That bass drum technique at 43:40 is awesome, tried it out and definitely feels more comfortable than sliding for me

[@drummermil]

Great, great, GREAT video, Anika and Drumeo team. First chance I've had to see this one. Wow! Enjoyed every second of it. Cheers!

[@codydressler6956]

Any guitar player, no matter how famous, it would be their gift to play with Anika

[@DavidEspinell]

Annika is absolutely awesome, great feel!

[@benjaminjacome]

Drumeo you literally taught me how to play drums. Thank you!

[@DamianS1893]

Love this lady! She's excellent!

[@matthewseymour5165]

Fantastic player. Very inspirational and musical.

[@kevbonett]

The chorus groove & fills in "Mister". OMFG. 👏

[@ranjithdesilva337]

Absolutely amazing thanks for lessons 😍❤️🔥

[@bigdog33bad]

Amazing talent. So impressed.

[@pierrevoyard9709]

J'adore ces ruptures de rythmes et ces passages incessant du binaire au ternaire comme si de rien n'en était. Anika, c'est la tout le relief de jeux de batteuse délurée et tout risques.

[@mannyjrdelacruz5398]

love that hi-hat play in the chorus of that song "Mister"!

[@mannyjrdelacruz5398]

and that syncopated fills

[@antoinne1]

Anika you rocked on that second song I'm watching Orange leafs is Great. I love it. keep drumming

[@RitchieColeman]

Anika, very nice! great tracks and solid kicks!

[@KlausPercussion]

Anika is so awesome...her sound and creativity....amazing

[@mauriciojosealmontebatista2284]

SHE IS AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@dekkerondrums]

I was in the process of choosing between a Mapex or DW kit for my next tour, and I put this video on in the background while I was researching, and based on the way the toms sounded in the first fill Anika did, I immediately switched to wanting a Tama set. You kill it Anika and whoever at Drumeo mic'd this set...thank you

[@tdrum21]

Great stuff here as usual. I dig that last tune. It all sounds great. Thanks for having her back and all the great playing!

[@miguelglodo261]

Benção pura ! Deus continue abençoando muito a sua vida Anika Nilles.

[@liguinhapercussarei9963]

Na quarentena ouvindo isso é massa seus vídeos.. bommmm

[@ExoScreenager]

She is just the best.

[@astronaut2005drummer]

For me, the best female drummer!

[@kaijudd4036]

Lol, ok drum chick has my heart!!! I love the groove and the flow!!! ❤️❤️❤️ You rock girl 🤘🏾!!!

[@donaldham1218]

She's in my catalog of drummers to listen and study too. Sure wish Chris Coleman could be on here or Aaron Spears but anyways always appreciate the educational stuff on here. I learn a lot

[@poppapunker6238]

It's always a good and bad thing when there's a new Drumeo video. It's exciting to watch of course, but I also know that whatever I was planning on doing the next hour won't happen xD

[@jaysonkit947]

Easy but amazing groves and fills 💯💯💯🤝

[@HarshanPushpakumara]

I love her playing style..

[@janrystar]

best drummer in the world!
