Periphery - Wildfire - Drum Cover by Simon Schröder

[@maxyboy9648]

the jazz improv is a welcome addition!

[@kaylalavalle4093]

Love that you did the jazz breakdown as well, so good

[@SimonSchroederDrums]

Thanks! Yeah, that jazzy bit is fun! I like the idea of the same kit sounding very different just by changing the dynamics . Cheers!

[@drake7709]

[@SimonSchroederDrums]

Thanks! I‘m glad that you like it!

[@SimonSchroederDrums]

Thanks a lot!!

[@Myriam-nk2fw]

4:25 makes me want to see you play some jazz on a jazz kit, feels a lot like you could nail it if that was the genre you were playing

[@SimonSchroederDrums]

I studied Jazz Drums for quiet some time and I´m very much enjoying it - Nowadays I wouldn't call myself a Jazz-Drummer though. But I like the impact it still has on my playing. Cheers!

[@Myriam-nk2fw]

@@SimonSchroederDrums oh that explains a lot! I can definitely see that you studied jazz, your playing is very enjoyable, you're amazing man! And by the way, I'm gonna start studying jazz drums next year😁I'm so excited

[@SimonSchroederDrums]

@Myriam-nk2fw thanks a lot!! Great to hear that you’re going to study drums! It’s so precious being abled to invest so much time in what you love. I wish you a great time practicing! 🥁

Danke dir Noah!! 🤟🏻

[@sillypickle9662]

How do you go about learning such specific kick parts like these?

[@SimonSchroederDrums]

I´m listening a lot to the parts before sitting down on the kit. So by the time I get to the kit I know everything by heart - then it's just repetition. I remember needing a bit more time for the part starting at 3:54. For stuff like this I recommend "The Ultimate Double Bass Drum Lesson" by Matt Garstka.

[@Myriam-nk2fw]

[@suspiciousonions]

Cover was super tight! All of the ghost notes were super clean. Another great playthrough from you! Also, what room mics do you use?

[@SimonSchroederDrums]

Thanks a lot! Actually I‘m not using room mics. I just have the overheads and a mic which I placed between the bass drum and the floor Tom. This mic is recording a lot of room and adds a lot of energy to the mix.

[@Ty_Thurmond]

You killed this dude!! That also looks like the exact kit Nolly and Periphery used on the album??

[@SimonSchroederDrums]

Thanks a lot! I dunno about the exact kit Halpern used on the record - but it should be a Pearl Kit, since he is endorsed by them. They recorded the drums at the real world studios which is crazy.. such a great room!

[@Ty_Thurmond]

@@SimonSchroederDrums Ahh okay! & Agreed!!

[@Yeefan0116]

你的雙踏左腳是超穩的那種…好厲害🥺 Open hand 也好強…有考慮出個教學類的影片嗎😂

[@SimonSchroederDrums]

Hey there, thanks! I used Matt Garstkas "The Ultimate Double Bass Drumming Lesson" for training my left foot. This really helps for all the tricky double bass grooves wich are used a lot in modern Progressive Metal. I hope you can translate this! Cheers 🤟🏻

[@Yeefan0116]

@@SimonSchroederDrums Thanks for your reply! Going to search it right now🙏

[@1MPL0DER]

nice bro that china sounds bitchin'!! .. also love that lil stak setup on your right

[@SimonSchroederDrums]

Hey, thanks!! The stacks are a Luke Holland Stack and a Matt Garstka Temporal Stack 2 on top. Cheers!

[@mattnormandrums]

Nice job here! How do you manage to not crack your bullet stack? Sticks you're using? I shredded mine pretty quickly unfortunately.

[@SimonSchroederDrums]

Thanks man! My bullet stack already cracked on one side.. but it lastet for around 2 years now. I‘m using 5B sticks - so pretty standard :)

[@mattnormandrums]

@@SimonSchroederDrums okay cool. Thanks for sharing 🤘🏼🥁

[@MannyMo_]

Is that a Prototype 18” Meinl China?

[@SimonSchroederDrums]

That is a 18" Byzance Traditional Trash China

[@MannyMo_]

@@SimonSchroederDrums I have never seen that China from them before, is it a new one?

[@SimonSchroederDrums]

@@MannyMo_ It released last year - I guess around February/March. I bought it for a club tour - but it also does a great job in the studio!

[@MannyMo_]

@@SimonSchroederDrums Hey bro off topic but I just released a new single called “Nexus” and I’d really appreciate it if you would check it out and give me some feedback!🙏🏻
