[@Post-Alone]

Anyone that covers the Weck is a legend in my eyes

[@chrisjames5865]

Ditto that

[@Musicotherapeute]

@@chrisjames5865 full agree

[@benmann6488]

It keeps getting better the more I watch it. Great cover of Weckl's greatest song, IMO.

[@danlc95]

She plays effortlessly, flawlessly, with relaxed grace. The end result is clear, crisp, and precise execution with all of the feel anyone could ask for.

[@malacuea5963]

Wow....i play drum like 20 years and i still cant play this song

[@johnnychannarong5484]

That’s because you never spent time to sit down and learn it .

[@danielpeci]

👏

[@eddiebeato5546]

Wow! This is phenomenal! I heard all the different versions…Mia is among the finest! She has the “Elan and Finesse.”

[@rms8698]

Great! Very clean and crazy rhythm ! Enjoyed your drumming.

[@Will3PK]

how can she play EVERYTHING so perfectly..! This is my favorite video of all time. So nice to listen to. Thank you!!

[@williep3426]

Great drumming. And I love how her kit sounds.

[@Hansesc2]

I need to amend my weak comment' This is one of the best covers of Island Magic that I've seen on KZbin.

[@ncimson5318]

love the way she plays,so chill and just having fun. I like the finish on her kit as well

[@dsdrumlessons1467]

Wow! this is not an easy song to cover! good job!

[@RayyMusik]

Fantastic, the drumming as well as the sound. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

[@Musicotherapeute]

Awesome drumming, ballsy to play this part of weckl, I love that :)

[@josephcalderone3987]

I did too she is excellent even has the same look as Anika wow

[@michyarry]

Why doesn't she have more videos? Her covers are solid as all hell, and if she would've just continued I'm sure she would be as big as Cobus eventually.

[@EatSleepDrumRepeat]

Those flam fills where phenomenal! Excellent work 🙂

[@alessandrorossini8704]

A beautiful, skilled young woman, hard hitting, steady grooving, great tone... what can I ask for more?

[@alexthedrumdude]

Dave Weckl would be proud. Awesome job well done.

[@randyr4361]

Wow!... love Weckl! Great playing!

[@planetkhaos7473]

Wow....anyone who can cover Dave Weckl is a hero to me. Fantastic cover. Excellent sound mixing too. Those Sonors sound perfect.

[@RianGalway193]

Wow! Amazing playing… I thought it was Anita Niles for a hot second.. Much love from Aruba 🇦🇼

[@eduardodonascimentojunior8247]

OMG for a while I thought I was watching Anika Niles

[@mraybarsx]

@Dax Ryder Man, thats how she looks like, not plays like :)

[@tomassimatovic]

Dude saammmeee

[@walterrserrano]

Me, too! 😂😂😂

[@rich_ondrums]

Hahahahahaha same except she isn’t as good

[@maikdrummusic7232]

Acho que qualquer um que clicar nesse vídeo distraído vai pensar o mesmo hahahhaa

[@SamonDrums]

very nice performance. woman with a dave weckl power. bravo.

[@fabriziodelcastillo189]

OMG! That’s a sweet sounding snare and toms, nice job on that cover Congrats!!!

[@christianwillassen]

I used to listen to Masterplan on cassette when the pyramids were built, amazing cover. I roll a 6,8 on the dice 🖖

[@quatch361]

Ok, this cove is definitely A M A Z I N G ! 😱😍

[@profeflyfish]

I keep returning to watch this wonderful interpretation of "Island Magic." Clean and precise; not overdone; rich and subtly complex. More videos please! Superb drumming.

[@MidasEnglish]

"Unique Feelings" beyond techniques! Incredibly Wonderful! It's like flowing through the body.

[@nicolasdebrosses5405]

Absolutely .

[@drumsondemand1]

Great Drumming Mia!!we need more Woman behind the drums!

[@Buddythunder1]

Haven't heard this since I had the Weckl VHS at high school!

[@janicehayward5171]

You are so wonderful this is the first time I’ve ever heard you play and you were in tune with everything there’s so many things that I can’t even imagine I’ve been playing the drums for 30 years and you play like it’s just something else I have no words to say

[@jeoffjungbauer8767]

AMAZING EVERYTHING!!! Please post more videos. Thant was absolutely incedible. Perfect pocket, great groove, beautiful Kit & cymbals. Just wodnerful!

[@equalsql7508]

Wow, what a superb version. I've always loved this track but never seen Weckl, or anyone else actually play it.You make it look so effortless. Excellent drumming.

[@ThePrateekPradhan]

Love at first sight! ❤

[@rebekahwatson1600]

unbelievably perfect.🎵

[@pangeaproxima3681]

Simply amazing!

[@andreramosdemeneses]

I love you, your talent is wonderful and amazing

[@malacuea5963]

[@eduardoargolo6102]

Amazing and awesome congratulations from Brazil! 🇧🇷

[@mikeborash3647]

Holy Moses ! I’m speechless- as a drummer, I can’t decide if I should be motivated to play or throw in the towel 😜 You’re awesome, girl !!!!!!!!

[@giannideluca8349]

It's amazing!!! This Dave wekcl's Latin Grove is fantastic. I've got this album and this girl is okay! Very good! 👏👍👌🥁

[@tijlvoshobbydrummer]

Great job! well done. i jused to listen to this music as a young guy eager to play just like Dave.

[@ThomasHolmen]

Yes ...really cool and what a great punchy snare sound -and the rest of the kit. Great playing and I love that track.

[@garymesser8679]

Very nice, tight performance, crisp sounding kit. Bravo!

[@fjboumboum]

Bravo Mia !! Toujours un plaisir de te voir et de t'entendre ! 👍👍👍

[@enricoangelini7629]

Clean, smooth and nicely performed....well done.

[@printemil]

This is a superb rendition of this incredibly difficult song. Those that said Weckl would be proud are spot on; he would. To those of you who might like to hear another rendition of this song and don’t mind jumping across the pond, check out Kanade Sato’s (Japan) version - it’s quite insane.

[@ThePreciousguitar87]

Awesome, I guess Dave would be proud!🤘

[@davidturek3375]

What an inspiration you are Mia !

[@flavio5725]

Good to see you play so relaxed, you are improoved a lot since the last year, keep on Mia. ;)

[@ohnonotme52]

yea man great job ......clean

[@Pure_KodiakWILD_Power]

i remember this song from his instructional video way back in the day. nice job 👍👍

[@NuOrder11]

Solid! You know you're mega-talented when it looks effortless!!

[@shawnbruce6934]

She's Great!

[@KugiPanchi]

Weckl songs always great to cover 😋

[@archieryan7863]

[@drumxtar]

[@suburbanflower]

Excellent drumming! Great song choice as well. Looking forward to more fusion styles. 👍

[@TurboKC]

You made these beats sound easy to play - you are a great drummer 🎶

[@Steffentrommelt]

[@eduardomoreno8238]

excellent drumming Anika... I mean Mia.

[@SirUncleCid]

RIGHT THOUGH!?!?!

[@drv30]

Holy shit, they look like identical twins

[@GorcStew]

omg stop comparing them just because they're women lol

[@archieryan7863]

You need thicker glasses... drv30

[@redlinedeath]

similar styles, and oddly, theres actually a resemblance!

[@chrisjames5865]

Awesome drum cover Mia! Great timing and feel. Dave Weckl is one of my all time favorite drummers on the planet. I've been lucky enough to see him live 2 times. Both here at the Jazz Kitchen in Indianapolis Indiana. The first time I was so close to the stage if I had a drum stick twice the length of a normal one, I probably could have hit his splash cymbal he has in the middle above his Tom's. 😉 Fantastic job again. I just bet Dave would be proud of how well you played that!!!

[@obioan11]

love your cleanness, and perfect counterpoint...splendid

[@JohnMuskiet]

Very well done!!!!....Thanks for sharing...

[@heftyalan1152]

Nicely played joy to listen to

[@xaviervino6308]

Wow.. Amazing !!

[@ethangormong7506]

Big Anika Nilles vibes! Which is one of the higher compliments I can give

[@josevarela6352]

Interesting version really. Very good play, with your personal flavour on top. I'm very surprised since I wasn't expecting you to play this well. Hats off!

[@KCKung-hq5mu]

Nice and clean playing! I'm a fan of Dave Weckl too.

[@TradBowBruce]

Awesome and technical! Always keeping the groove...just like Porcaro! Keep the music coming!!!

[@chrismuserdrummer]

Great job!

[@oomzay]

Amazing

[@gravitydrums1391]

Nicely done.. I think I might do this cover soon as well.

[@eilampniel2962]

Awesome Job !

[@MrUrech]

"Somebody" got The Next Step? gave me full body chills the first 5 seconds of you doing this. my god lol

[@ThePierre61]

The best version... musicality here!

[@sagittila]

Great flow!

[@ariohardickdo3418]

Keep it up Mia ....

[@titolivio6832]

Very good!

[@urbanjunglegroove1238]

Wow!

[@w.carlblackwell]

Since this was set in a garage, I was hoping for a drum solo on a lawnmower and/or weed eater. :) Either way, excellent playing and video production. Keep up the great work!

[@joshodzelmans2625]

Excellent playing, Mia. Dave would be proud of you, I'm sure. Go far, girl.

[@vincecostanzo7642]

Wow! excellent execution with your own flare, well done Mia!

[@andymcphie3008]
