Took you’re course this year and you won the title “biggest inspirer” of 2018!

[@benaducci1]

great

[@JulianFernandez]

good one. new year, new intro maybe?! :)

[@rillloudmother]

as a guitarist. the intro is one of my favorite parts.

[@midifortress170]

I love the intro so much!

[@borgullet3376]

Dude, your the Indiana Jones of the Drum Kit ...

[@rogerregor2489]

Even the camera lost its mind at 4:32

[@thomasdeckermusic6543]

It’s hard for me to do the exercise even with a met because my left foot just loves to rush

[@thomasdeckermusic6543]

I guess I’ll have to start slow 🤘

[@martywhite2988]

Mile High Drums The 80/20 philosophy suggests you should just cut it off. Be sure to clean up the bloody mess.

[@mothabod]

or Like you americans Like UEBERLIKE

[@jangunnarolsen5946]

Folks! «Youngsters»talking drums/drummers. What abt drums/sets like Kenny Clarke, Art Blakey,Max Roach, Stan Levy, Shelly Manne played on, namely GRETSCH, LEEDY, they don’t make them anymore! Like they used to be. «Shame»! Poor Y «young» drummers . From and. «Old» man 75yrs

[@8020drummer]

Whaaaat? Current Gretschs and Slingerlands sound great! (I'm not sponsored btw free plug:)

[@adityatyagi4009]

Just saw Eric Harland and Zakir Hussain and some drummers from South Indian and it was insane!

[@JacobEvansDrums]

Tony is the GOAT

[@El_Bicho_Feo]

Regarding the Eric Harland thing on the Aaron Parks, check out what your old buddy Kenneth Salters does on this track called “Take the Humble” off of Cameron Mizell’s ‘Negative Spaces’ CD. Similar but I love the way he varies it... www.cameronmizell.com/negative-spaces

[@muziko]

So I’m hearing 3 bars of 4 and a bar of 3 which says 15 to me. Really enjoying your videos but that seems “odd”☮️

[@carmenip6924]

I also wanna ask what do u think about American drum solo150, is it really useful? Kinda wasting time to practice that

[@davidmcdade4288]

Hi nate, why is there a bar of 7/8 in your transcription. Cheers from Australia

[@BeeslyBeep]

Thanks man I'm loving your channel. I don't normally practice stuff from internet educators, but you got me.

[@김영민-x2o]

Man, your all of tom stuff sounds similar to eric harland's, especially snare I think, tasty!

[@billpeart]

Wouldn't mind hearing you analyze Tony's stick grip. He states he holds rather tightly with his pinky and ring fingers? Great content as always, and thank you.

[@xiaozhouchen4122]

Your lessons are exactly what I need. Appreciate!!!

[@elwoodwhite9734]

Great video thks for posting

[@emmanuelgauthier2470]

[@mothabod]

[@janetremsing6988]

[@jodyzannoni]

[@neotake2278]

Bump it up a little bit, bump it up a little bit... Hmmm. I like it. Thank you for your commitment and effort. God bless you!

[@chrissweetleaf5453]

This guy. 👍

[@Drummer_of_Solace]

We are watching the best drum channel on the planet.

[@8020drummer]

Relax;) (But seriously, thanks)

[@flotuc]

i like those ideas !!!

[@utubz007]

Can you describe the use of your fingers and wrist action when you play fast.

[@vincentrizzi4929]

Nate, paint you're door, looks like shit bro.

[@drumma_satch]

You the man!

[@carmenip6924]

Damn this s exactly the lesson i need

[@Massy012]

yoo cheers nate

[@andrewwalsh6762]

I really love your videos. Great educator.

[@ForwrdMovmntMusc]

🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

[@utubz007]

Thanks for the great teaching

[@douglasgreen5234]

I really enjoy your videos. This is going to sound like a BS question but it's not. Have you or any drummer you have heard of ever designed a rhythm around Morse code? do you think it could be done and still sound musical? Thanks if you respond.

[@mickberry164]

YYZ is exactly that. It's Morse code for the Toronto airport, which is in airline parlance "YYZ". The morse code rhythm is what the song starts out with.

[@jeremydale5080]

Why isn't the hat the off beat

[@dinodeluca6210]

Nice work my friend

[@meetgadhia2524]

Even nate smith does it!!

[@ChrisSheridan295]

I'm a big fan of this channel but why the nylon tips man? They are some lovely cymbals man, seems a shame to make them ping like a 30 dollar symbol

[@ns81]

Chris Sheridan 3 guesses who else uses nylon tips 😲

[@AquaAnim]

Nathaniel Smith *cough Eric Harland cough*

[@ertoliart]

@@ns81 Louis Hayes

[@Ronaldo07ISDABOMB]

Yeah sorry bruh, Nylon tips are no less musical than wooden tips, it's all about the sound. The sooner you can come to terms with this, the sooner you will benefit from this kind of thinking.

[@ChrisSheridan295]

They both sound different, neither are more or less musical. People have a preference and mine is wood. I don't think that's holding me back like you're suggesting

[@kurtjohnson1042]

Can you do a gear video with the gear you take to gigs ever? It would be interesting to know why you choose the gear you do, such as drums, snares, drumheads, cymbals, sticks, etc.

[@8020drummer]

I can do a video but I'll spoil the surprise. In New York, the answer is "as little as possible", including playing on crappy kits and somebody else's cymbals, just to avoid schlepping stuff. I can make a crap house kit sound pretty decent with a wallet, by hat, and my touch ;);)

[@kurtjohnson1042]

@@8020drummer Interesting, I know a cheap drumset can sound good pretty easily, but I've always thought bad cymbals were bad cymbals.

[@matteodifra]

yeah!great!!!

[@bombingbloke]

Love this eventhough Im still a beginner level drummer. And I love invisible cinema! Check out golden age from Nir Felder. One of my favourite jazz albums with Parks on the keys and Nate Smith on drums. Greetings from the netherlands

[@billstrohler]

I just found out about album a few weeks ago. Nate Smith is so amazing. I really enjoy this youtube channel, very well done!

[@efafe4972]
