You already know we on this after watching Larnell

[@Samuel0.0kang]

Martin hahaha lol

[@VanAvakian]

They gotta know this, he set the stage for the rest of these g's!

[@crgrdhd]

Not quite the same though is it. Larnell set the bar pretty effing high!

[@OkImJustCommenting]

Craig Redhead lol facts! Really high!! But Kaz did his thang same way though. Larnell is a different kat man...#TorontoStandUp!

[@georginaigbokwe1461]

You're right on that one. Brilliant. Also reminds me of Vic Firth concert with Devon Taylor. Great vibes; great set x

[@johnathonbirch3074]

Can we also take a moment to appreciate how good of a loop Nate Werthy(the percussionist) made for him to solo over 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@AnuarsTV]

I bet Kaz wrote it :P

[@MrMartell2012]

That loop is sick!!!!

[@TrevWILL79]

He kept that pocket right in there!!

[@MalachiVereen]

Yesss!!!!

[@nelsonsantos2706]

FACTS!!! He was sooooo locked in it was ridiculous! After 5:45 the loop stood out more than everything else in my opinion..... even against the solo, which I actually didn't like too much. But the song itself as a whole is awesome!

[@codemasterz6074]

The composition itself is an absolute masterpiece.

[@christinehammons4467]

Yes!!! I agree. Complete Masterpiece in every sense

[@Bernsong]

Indeed and I love how it comes back to the starting theme.

[@titusrussel1447]

I couldn't agree more. I keep coming back for this. Haha

[@EQPaunders]

[@EQPaunders]

Thumbs up to everyone

[@zzlagond6438]

Tempo : 100 Intro pattern : 5/4 Afterwards : 7/4 x2 - 6/4 - 5/4 + instrinsic rhythms... it's not easy task !!! ;)

[@samuelbracamontes5177]

You have a trascription?

[@YoxxSHIxx]

Thanks

[@spudwrencheddie]

I’ll be damned if I couldn’t figure out the time signatures man. Thanks

[@Sudheerkumar-fd1nw]

tq bro...im thinking about the intro number

[@scroxydrums]

Im doing the transcription right now) (it's not 100 though. The tempo is somewhere between 102 and 103, so they probably recorded it without metronome)

[@justinthomas4387]

That guy on the synth is killing it. The band is amazing

[@Jknoles78]

They are currently on tour!

[@Jknoles78]

The first synth solo is Xavier. Played with Prince and plays regularly with ToTo.

[@WallyPeterson]

I'd like to add that Nate Werth is the most underrated percussionist in history. He's a secret weapon.

[@biggrizznotthelilone]

FACTS!!!!! He is an absolute beast!!!

[@lucymb6438]

This is the most sophisticated musical masterpiece ever. Kaz is an absolute genius

[@cbaum64]

DAMN, little Baby Boy Drummer got to sit in on a Zildjian Live performance too... that lucky little guy has it made!

[@alhassani23]

Isn't that Aaron Spears holding him? Pretty sure he's well on his way already.

[@cx777o]

Its just crazy to see that through social media input and the right learning strategies that little guy starts to grow immensly... now he has the opportunities to absorb all that playing and be formed into a formidable world class drummer! Wish I was young again haha

[@thompsondo2450]

He has to preform here or else..... or else.

[@TrevWILL79]

Christian Baumgartner like every drummer is like big uncles to that kid!!

[@letsadddrumsin4547]

Zildjian has Baby Boy Drummer!!! another young legend musician in the Making furshure!!

[@breakfast_kat]

That shot of Aaron at the start of the solo’s crescendo 😢 Was already emotional then just started weeping when I saw that

[@0Gotenks]

I bow to the composer of this track as well as Kaz Rodriguez 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🔥🔥🔥

[@melsanchez05]

Kaz’s discipline at the end shows he’s level of drumming from the first to the last bar I would’ve gone crazy and how great of a musician drummer he is

[@chrisl5711]

This might be the best song overall in the whole series. Well done!

[@Mr88saved]

It's dope to see Spears, Pridgen, Royster Jr., and other drummers there showing support

[@undernovemberskies]

great storytelling through music. i loved larnell's performance, but man this song gave me goosebumps and brought me into a dreamlike state. it was like watching an epic adventure movie

[@amf-v1093]

Larnell's and TP's smash this...even Tony was like...this is eh.

[@Fluffykinggaming]

KAZ!!!!!!! So proud of this guy !!! UK repping !! So many powerhouses in that room !! So much talent and they're there for the love of music !!! Love it !!

[@ivan1914]

If this theme were a script for a movie, surely KAZ would be the director along with Roberth Sput, who was fantastic in this interpretation, this percussionist is also wonderful. Mas Merits to Kazz Extremely impeccable drummer, disciplined and an excellent storyteller through music🎧🥁🎼🔥❤️

[@rdgdrummer]

I wish I had all the zildjian live songs to be drumless!! The meter changes and the musicality!!!🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾 🔥 🔥 🔥!!

[@SteveBurksMusic]

This is my fave Ghost Note arrangement so far. Hands down. It's exquisite.

[@Delicate_Elephant]

That synth solo @2:36 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 Such incredible musicians! This is giving me the chills like Snarky Puppy's Lingus video.

[@kaduhangar]

I confess that I was looking forward to this video, I'm a Kaz fan, congratulations to Zildjian.

[@greivinchacon4851]

The arrangement is a master piece, so musical and complex and yet too easy to appreciate, the band is a delight for the senses and Kaz is the cherry of the cake, thank you guys for such a musical masterpiece.

[@THEEBlackAnime]

The build up to the solo. Awesome storytelling as well 👌🏾

[@nelsonsantos2706]

I like the build up to the solo MORE than the solo itself! The percussionist made that pocket Soooooo deep! 🔥🔥🔥

[@groovemaster1978]

What an amazing composition! It moves me to tears.. Kaz is an exceptional drummer..

[@sandman2534]

The structure of his playing throughout the piece is just perfect. There’s a constant build and he finally gives us his all at the end👌🏻

[@joebavaro6667]

Can’t stop watching this ! Love not only the drumming but the composition !!!

[@christinehammons4467]

one of the best instrumentals I've ever heard. I get goosebumps at the synth solo it sounds like a soul crying out

[@gabrielfloresdrums]

Another fave drummer 😉👊👊👊 Yeah 👊👊👊😁

[@CaffeinatedGiraffe]

I read that some people didn't like his solo. Now, I respect that you have your own personal taste, I get it, but I feel that if you look past the technique and look at the actual meaning of this song, it could potentially change your view. This right here is a song of triumph over grief, darkness, and loss. The beginning is pretty dark and sounds like the soundtrack to a villain getting his way, feeling victorious. As the song progresses, our main character gets his strength back over time, until the solo comes and he finally bursts from his shackles and freely expresses himself, thus destroying the darkness that tried to hold him down. That's just my interpretation, but if you look deeper than just the surface, you can appreciate this arrangement a lot more. What does this song mean to you? Is this the soundtrack to your life? Have you overcome or are you overcoming a burden?

[@steevyboy1]

I'm so pleased I've found this series.

[@NormSauceman]

I think if I listen to too many more of these sessions I will break my STANK face... Way to go Kaz!!

[@ArpithSamuel85]

Proud of you dear brother. Glad to say that I know this man and had the opportunity to jam at his studio a few times in London. Gem of a guy.

[@riffpad]

I cried watching this last night. The composition is beautiful and the performance was executed with groove and precision. The melodies just moved me so much I had to shed a tear. Absolutely 11/10 experience. First time watching time actually slowed down so I could take it all in, haven't had that happen to me in years...

[@brandonchinga]

Song makes me get watery eyes almost everytime

[@silpariss]

Masterpiece, by far the best song on this channel

[@cmcwilliams120]

Majestic, stunning performance.

[@Jknoles78]

So far this is the best series anyone has put out yet. Larnell was astounding. (Like I watched it about 20 times in a row through tears of joy and jealousy) Kaz was fantastic. The rest of the lineup is amazing. Having Ghost Note as the backing band is just icing all of the cake. I can't wait to see the rest. Thank you so much Zildjian for facilitating this.

[@Ibradrums]

I think that's my favorite composition for Zildjian Live.. they're all stellar compositions tho... but this one with Kaz is a masterpiece of music

[@BeatPushaTV]

I really enjoy the way this composition unfolds. Possibly my favorite performance in this series.

[@batero-mikev]

Amazing Drum Sesion !! Very Groove !! Master Kaz Rodriguez !!!

[@Ephremjlm1]

I love the fact that this man uses powerstroke 4 clears on his toms. The secret weapon to making your toms sound huge is using those on the top and then remo diplomats on the bottom since they have a super thin single ply. It makes the head resonate more. with those on the bottom and the PS4C's on the top you get that super huge sound but you can tune it to control it without it sounding overly boomy.

[@TheHi-NoteFunClub-BeatsByMike]

The wash on that ride cymbal sounds like someone dropped a 10 penny nail into a laboratory crucible that started aggressively boiling a cup of butter an hour ago... While just the faintest echo of a gong decay sounded after being hit 2 rooms over in the moment just BEFORE that nail hit. Phenomenal.

[@wojticz3754]

Damn Kaz is the bomb, so is the band! Ghost note is in da house! But we should also kudos the sound engineers... fantastic job lads.

[@stevenkorenek389]

This song is pure gold..

[@nomoreratrace8090]

Syncopated rhythms aren't the easiest to play by any stretch of the imagination, especially when there are counter rhythms being played in contrast to the main rhythm. Keeping time and knowing where you are is crucial. One miscount, hitting a note too early or too late, will possibly cause a train wreck and ultimately a break down in the song and the show. However, I have seen some damn good musician recover from timing errors and find their way back to the main rhythm with no issues and keep playing like nothing ever happened. This dude Kaz is a true beast with this syncopated playing. This was AWESOME!!!!

[@yatharthization099]
