Fantastic playing, really highlighted how lovely those cymbals sound. Now I’m gonna look up this guy for more of that tasty playing.

[@westleedrums]

There were reasons Joe Zawinul hired this guy. He's incredibly talented

[@Brento44]

Fantastic drummer!!!

[@MatthiasKnorrMusic]

wise words from Nathaniel - I love all the beautiful sounds & musical colors Paiste Cymbals have. They inspire me every single day I play them.

[@KONAMAN100]

Not just the cymbals, those drums are beautiful. Nate's a very very slick player.

[@DimitriFantini]

Nathaniel!!!!

[@davidsuprenant893]

The only cymbal your missing in this set up is the masters 22" swish and a 8" splash and you have got the HOLY GRAIL SET UP.!!! Nobody can complete or even come close.To me this is as close to perfection I could ever ask for in a cymbal setup. I don't think it could ever get any better for my ears.

[@michaels6213]

[@thenel2162]

this guy is fantastic!

[@sennaha]

Sweet!

[@Agenda-zt6dj]

Great video, and awesome choice of drummer/musician to do the demo!! Love the nice mix of sounds Nathaniel gets by using various lines of Paiste cymbals to get a wide range of sounds to paint with. I love Paiste cymbals! I've been playing Paiste for over 3 years now, and I'm so happy I switched. When I hear other companies cymbals, they sound OK, or maybe good, but they lack something that's hard to put in words, but Paiste's just have a presence, a very live vibe to them & they cut through the mix. They respond well to my touch & I'm never disappointed with them at all, even when I switch from sticks, to brushes, to mallets, they always come through for me. Thanks Paiste!! :)

[@PaisteChannel]

Thanks a lot John!!!

[@Agenda-zt6dj]
