Sparks Pt. 1 and 2, definitely.

[@achmedhorst3439]

Contortionist or Low Life Nice one, didn't expect a drum cover ^^

[@mykee426]

Cloudkicker in your library also???

[@vincitnoche6313]

Favorite songs either Unholy Aura or Abracadabra

@@vincitnoche6313 Great picks!

[@TheMagicalArden]

That intro is so mind-fucky.

[@DennisMartenssonOfficial]

Haha, indeed! Love it though! : D

[@RedFlareChannel]

No waaaaay, I love this one ^-^ One of the most fun and epic jams they ever made!

[@RedFlareChannel]

Well done, Dennis. You even got the cymbal accuracy with the second break from 3:47. That was a great video, man =)

[@DennisMartenssonOfficial]

Haha, definitely! The whole song feels like going on an adventure. Many interesting turns. : D And thanks!

@@DennisMartenssonOfficial If I could make a request for another playthrough, I think you'll really enjoy All The Light We Don't See and Lily & The Moon together by Thornhill. I'd love to see it =)

[@chrisoakley7071]

ive heard the band but never heard this song before... Great job ...tricky timing at parts super cool !!

[@DennisMartenssonOfficial]

Thanks a lot! One of their best songs imho, this song is a real adventure. : D

[@Stolid]

damn, you rip on drums too?! holy shit, noiceee

[@DennisMartenssonOfficial]

Haha, I wouldn't say "rip" x'D This song is more mentally hard than technically hard, if that makes sense, it's kind of an easy song if you're used to changing feels and polyrhythms and stuff like that. (:

[@mykee426]

Brutifully magnificent 🤘 love it

[@DennisMartenssonOfficial]

Thanks a lot!

Amazing drum cover!!!

[@DennisMartenssonOfficial]

Thanks a lot! : D

[@airsoftfreak11]

Band name makes me think of the soviet cosmonauts 😄 What was the dogs name they sent into space??

[@brewhog]

Are those mesh heads on an alesis? I'm looking into getting another electronic set. I think mesh heads are a must for the next one (Been using Yamaha Extreme IIS for years). I can't stand the solid rubber feel.

[@brewhog]

Just found your hardware kit in the description. I'll have to check out that set. How do you like it? Have you played with the Roland mesh heads? Any major difference in feel?

[@DennisMartenssonOfficial]

Yep! It's the Alesis Surge kit. Although a tad bit modified by this point. (: I had a robber kit before, and mesh heads is a must now in my opinion. There are so many cheap mesh head kits now that there's really no reason for rubber pads anymore, IMHO! And no, haven't tried the Roland mesh heads yet. I have a Drum-Tec Real Feel mesh head on the kick, which improved the feel of that a lot. So I'd probably go with that series of mesh heads instead, if I wanted to upgrade. (:

[@ConnMolnar]

Are you playing to a metronome on the intro or is there a way to memorise the polyrythm?
