Gojira - Mario Duplantier - Drum Solo (June 2016)

[@jimmymotionless2556]

The heaviest drummer in the universe

[@maureenwagg5305]

The G.O.A.T. No one playing drums in this genre is this funky fresh my metal friends. Never bored watching him play. Always surprising and interested change ups. Mind blowing skill. Love him.

[@frankfrohmann1504]

I saw him live in Frankfurt. He is one of the best Hardrock/metal Drummers I know. Maybe even the best. How can someone dislike this solo?

[@andrewteichroeb8886]

Super Mario!

[@dot5511]

His set is the best sounding ever

[@frenchexpat5601]

This is why I love Mario. His solo are always meant to be the most precise possible and he keeps it simple. This is so much better than all those "look at how technical I am" copies everywhere else. This is so simple (didn't say easy) and so efficient, I love it! Also, the editing is crap.

[@ryanmoriarity5498]

The crowd enteraction and his skill is just sooooo awsome

[@jujutube02]

Un super solo réalisé par un super batteur Français de notre époque appartenant a un super groupe Français de notre époque mondialement connu avec un super public ambiancé et enregistré avec une super qualité en plus, c'est trop beau pour être vrai...

[@deveshrajagnihotri5804]

Fuck! Such an amazing crowd. And Mario, well what can I say about him. He is just phenomenal.

[@joedugas9462]

drum solo with structure! Super Mario...the best right now....those drums sounded awesome! that sound guy knew what he was doing!

[@nathanfernandes2360]

Every drummers dream

[@goonercestlavie]

Chouette chouette. Bravo Mario

[@b2o664]

Super solo !

[@jrsanchez9886]

a beast...

[@efectoaloha]

1:00 that DAB

[@samirtheerosenin3315]

What an edit 🎉🎉

[@udomatthiasdrums5322]

cool stuff - sound good - feeling good!!

[@megadave29]

Unreal

[@ilikejuice5384]

how does he get that "wet" sound from the toms?(idk what to call it but it sounds very cool)

[@ThatOneGuyWithAReallyLongName.]

Super low tuning to the point where there's hardly a measurable pitch and LOTS of reverb. LOOOOOOOOTS of reverb. It's cool in this sort of setting, but impractical literally everywhere else.

[@deceiver444]

Joe and Mario LOVE reverb.

[@ilikejuice5384]

hahahaha thanks

[@DesignerFromMars]

He gets that from his sweat. Not what you meant I suppose. Seriously clear drum heads are a good step in the right direction if you want that sound.

[@MrDJELEDJE]

Personnaly I don't like this tom sound, but it is his way and you can reconize his tom sound in a second. Mike Bordin choose big toms high tuned and Igor did the same because of Mike....

[@globan8]

MARIOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!

[@Anaximander29A]

9 people thought they clicked on the download button.

[@Inchewingkul]

No puedo parar de escucharlo :v

[@GJanee]

wow, am i the only one here who got thrown back to animatrix's "final flight of the osiris" dojo scene after 1:02?

[@valffadir17]

GJanee Yes

[@aureliomoreira3860]

His style of drumming reminds me of Terry Bozzio

[@Nig0]

Good solo, loik it

[@Nanou197373]

ohhhh :O

[@Selkirk69]

lol stops the bass to concentrate when the audience fucks up but I hear a lot of almost....dare I say.... African influence in his playing...and boy, he loves him some reverb om the toms ! very different playing than what Americans are use to...powerful but with delicate flavours

[@mathieurichard]

le demi dieu

[@DesignerFromMars]

l'autre demi étant Joe

[@DesignerFromMars]

l'autre demi étant Joe

[@guillaumegalienne6351]

Je comprends juste pas commment il continue les battements de caisse claires pendant le solo :/

[@MCVegetoHalo]

Guillaume Galienne précision, finesse, rapidité, la voilà la solution 😂

[@Sallorin]

CrazyRoud non la solution c’est que se mec es juste un dieu de la batterie voilà tous ses solo sont juste dingue

[@antoinevincheneux921]

"Pro-shot" ? Les changements de points de vue donne la gerbe ...x) Sinon ouais Mario on t'aime!!!

[@justinwise6781]

Serious question... How much money for that drum setup... ballpark?

[@nenntmichbond]

About 8 - 10 000

[@mikestckl6939]

the cymbals alone might even cost 1500 - 2500

[@mammothaudioengineering]

That exact setup with those high end quality cymbals is going to run you easily 12k. If it's just "that kind" of setup, I would advise you to just invest in great cymbals and a mid tier drumset. You can always enhance a drum with good heads and proper tuning, but a shit cymbal will always be a shit cymbal.

[@mikestckl6939]

i agree wiht that , if you get a tama imperialstar (if its still avaiable... ) or a mapex with that tom setup you pay probably 1200 for the set with low/midclass cymbals ... add some decent cymbals from any brand that you like and good to go , but a megabell ride is almost a must have if you want that signature sound , mario has his toms tuned really flat so the kit doesnt really has to be a "pro" kit , at least in my opinion ...

[@mammothaudioengineering]

Mike Støckl honestly, his tuning is not as flat as you think, it's more that we perceive it as that because of the way it is eq'ed (basically mid scoop on all toms). but yeah, you are on point!

[@bettermetalsnake95]

I hate this editing.

[@babysunface5645]

The out of time clapping and shouts make me cringe

[@thomas1schranz371]

I'm a little dissapointed... i love gojira and mario, but this is just average tbh

[@postwar142]

I've honestly never seen such a boring drum solo, even from amatures. What The hell did I watch? I seriously thought he was just testing his kits for the first couple of minutes.

[@pugsleytattoos3631]

Postwar Pryor haha let me guess..a death metal fan..who just want to hear stupid shit like that😂

[@postwar142]

name me a worse one. u only need one

[@_kholoss_1457]

Postwar Pryor you clearly don't understand rhythm then... this solo is badass because he is using algorithms with his drum beats (aka polyrhythms). He is the King of rhythm

[@jacobm92]

you clearly dont understand DRUMMING then, just because hes on time doesnt mean hes good, anyone can fucking play on time. fucking fanboys....

[@Guigeek4Q4]

Indialien Jones I'm not a big fan of the band but I'm a big fan of drumming and I can guarantee you this solo is really good. It's full of subtleties which make it very interesting to listen to. Moreover, he's constantly using polyrythms, as someone mentionned before and he clearly is a monster of technique. But the most important : he managed to gather all these qualities to make the hole thing sound musical, that's what make this a good solo. However, I can understand that the really precise and disciplined sound he makes is not for every one. What I can't understand IS that you find it boring, I'd really like you to expand your point.

[@ΓεώργιοςΒάλσαμος-υ3η]

Boring...nothing special! He is amazing drummer but playing solo not so good!

[@Suyai-]

Γεώργιος Βάλσαμος Watch the old ones, it seems in this concert he wasn’t at it’s fullest, his old solos are way better
