[@kriss_drummer]

Want me to make another Q&A video? Ask your questions!😉

[@tylerwolf2557]

How many days does it take to upload a cover? Like what’s the timeline from recording to editing until uploading. 🦖

[@NyHoCkEyPlAyA14]

Love your accent. What is your ethnic background?

[@vladvulcan]

Where do you live? I'm personally intrigued by you having Ukrainian surname and speaking English so fluently. Did you learn English as a foreign language or grew up in an English-speaking family living abroad?

[@donhurst8459]

Please make another Q&A video. Have you ever tried to compose your own music?🤔

[@truthforyourhealth]

I think its very good that you have education, like after finishing music school, you became a drummer, because peofessional education brings best results in my opinion. I believe you opened up at the end when you were talking about your favourite albums, Limb Bizkit and SoaD, very cool. ❤

[@thefurbeastunderyourbed5012]

Honestly, you can never go wrong in a girl digging Limp Bizkit, dogs and drumming 😂😍. Funny thing is, my elder sister had a ticket for the Chocolate Starfish Tour here in Erfurt back in 2001, but as Fred Durst had suffered a back injury a few nights before (I think in Bremen), the concert was cancelled without substitution. So she reimbursed the ticket and got a 3-day-pass for the Highfield Festival the following year, thus coming across bands like Incubus and so on. She bought the CDs and got me hooked too.That's how it went. Memories, memories...

[@daks8888]

You can take out the Limp Bizkit lol

[@will5566]

Merci kristina pour ton travail. Grâce à tes vidéos que je suis depuis un moment , j'ai décidé de m'acheter une batterie. Malgré mes 42 ans je compte bien apprendre à mon rythme. Bon courage à toi et continue de nous faire vibrer.

Such a wonderful and lovely video Kris. It was very nice to get to know you more and you voice is so sweet!!! You are so amazing and beautiful!! 🌹🌹💜💜💜💜

[@LaNcelLOoT]

Very nice video. I´m 32 years old and today i had my 3rd drum class of my life. I really love drums, and i hope i can play like you someday! Greetings from Brasil

[@jamesgulland]

You’re so right about age not being a limiting factor to learning. I quit my job at the age of 40 and then taught myself to program and now I am a software developer. I also play the drums on the side too of course haha 😊

[@azharkhan8796]

Hey man. Similar boat. Teaching myself Python.... Hows the journey going for you? Can we get in touch?

[@nothing2449]

Probably, you are smart, above the average level. It compensates. Most people sink while trying to learn programming being adults without a proper background. (Source: 15 years of experience in software engineering and 5 years of technical interviewing experience)

[@swi2009ca]

YES, please continue doing what you're doing. You're an inspiration for many of us, me (45) included. Cheers

[@tylers_piano]

Hi Kristina. I think this is the most personal video of you on youtube so far in my opinion. It's wonderful to see you speak a little more freely. That makes me like you even more.💜 I have the impression that you are no longer as afraid to speak English as I think you said in one of your earlier short talk videos. It's nice that you've been part of my living room for 3 years now, every time I watch your videos. Thank you ✌️🙂

[@stevedawg9588]

As an Englishman myself, Kristina speaks better than me, no reason to be afraid.

[@charbokh]

I can relate to Kristina. I was able to play drums even when I didn't had the opportunity to sit on a kit. When I sat it was like a big revelation. I do have to admit that I still don't know the proper names for certain rhythms and techniques to play drums, I guess that comes with studying music and the instrument, but it came naturally to me. I can play drums by ear. Electric Bass is another instrument that I really like, I've played bass before and it's amazing. Don't ever be afraid to start, whatever your age is or what people might think of you. Kriss, you're big inspiration to keep rocking out! Greetings from El Salvador Central America ❤

Really enjoyed listening to you and getting to know you a little better. Thank you for learning English so well so that all of us over hear can understand you. You’re very smart and kind. Your dad sounds like a cool dude! I bet he’s so proud of you. Keep up the great work you do. Next time would love to learn more about you… where you live, (not specifically of course) things you like to do when you’re not drumming or teaching, have you ever traveled, do you plan on traveling, things like that. That short clip of you when you were younger was AWESOME! You’re an amazing young lady.

[@hobojoe9717]

4:03 For people living in an apartment, definitely get an electronic kit as Kris said. Obviously they still make noise, but you can work around it. Communicate with your neighbors, let them know about it in advance and give them your contact info so that they can let you know if it’s bothering them. Really I’ve only ever had to worry about people below me (if you’ve had people live above you, you can imagine how double bass pedals would still be very audible lol). In the past I’ve worked it out so that I mostly practice when my neighbor is out of the house. Thankfully right now I live on the ground floor so I can drum without worrying about bothering anyone. EDIT: Also, it’s worth investing in an e-kit that has mesh drums heads instead of rubber, as they are significantly quieter.

[@hansjoseph__]

There she is! ❤

[@j_laf9575]

Thanks for answering the questions! Would definitely love to see you collab with other musicians!

[@kagesong]

Kristina always here to remind me that I really am the only one standing in my own way at this point. Honestly, I think the question a lot of potential cover artists have is, How the heck do you get yourself to just do it at first? Like, how do you get past feeling like it might not be good enough, the negative comments that almost certainly will come and can make you feel like you failed, getting through videos that just don't have views, and uploading anyway. Stuff like that. Just as an amatuer or starting out cover artist, how do you get over confidence barriers that are kind of natural to KZbin and similar platforms? (I SWEAR I'll upload again eventually, lol. Actually, I think I might. I feel good about Crazy=Genius, but I've taken a lot longer than a couple hours to get there, lol.)

[@OngoGablogian185]

Jesus, what on Earth are you rambling on about?

[@kagesong]

@@OngoGablogian185 Usually not much.

[@WeazelGamingHI]

My tip is just do it. Ignore having to always get views or comments on videos. Do it for yourself, for fun. That's how most people have done it.

[@kagesong]

@@WeazelGamingHI If only fun for me wasn't thinking I did a perfect job and deserve recognition, lol. My head might not be right :D .

[@HugoStiglitz88]

Look it's very simple. All you need to do is work work work. Keep practicing. It might take a very long time, or not very long. It depends entirely on how much you practice per day Also, cover songs is an excellent way to get better at an instrument because it forces you to play things you're not naturally good at. It expands your vocabulary in an important way As far as negative comments, don't worry about them at all. If you watch your covers, you'll know if they're accurate or well performed or not. If you nail a song, people will still leave negative comments, or even make personal attacks. It's the internet. The only criticism worth caring about is valid criticism. Constructive criticism can be extremely important for a drummer as well as listening to your own recordings When I was younger, everyone used to kiss my ass and tell me how amazing I was. But at a certain point I started to notice every recording of myself there are mistakes. I didn't realize til it was too late that although I certainly have high level capability, my reliability and precision is terrible. I'm still trying to fix that til this day (doesn't help that I stopped playing for 10 years lol). Don't let that happen to you because once you establish bad habits they can be tough to break

[@MICHAEL-jh2ms]

Love everything you play. Your quite talented Kriss. I find myself to be crazy about ya! 😊 Look forward to hearing more from ya. 😉

Hearing that one of your favorite albums is Chocolate Starfish made me an even bigger fan!!! The drumming on that album is phenomenal. John Otto has such an amazing style snd groove.

[@yourlifeisagreatstory]

I remember hearing some old practice and jam tracks of Otto and Sam Rivers, even Wes Borland and Lethal. They were an amazing and talented band. You can really hear the range in $3 Bills.

[@daimus]

Great Q&A! I'd definitely like to see more of these. I think your advice is fantastic for people getting involved in any creative endeavour really. Being consistent and persistent; to keep the passion alive and overcome the hurdles (and there WILL be hurdles). Also that we're never too old to learn something new, about art.. or I'd say even life in general!

А последовательность такая, что хоть и знаю язык, но не 100%, так что не вся инфа усваивается, а сабы родного языка прикрутить не сложно. Ведь даже иностранные добавляют сабы разных языков.
