DIS TOO MUCH - Drum Teacher Reacts to Pentatonix Royals by Lorde
Hello! In today's video, we are going to be reacting to the one and only Pentatonix once more and this time, it's going to be their cover of Royals! I'm going to be honest here, this one was rough for me. I was honestly in sensory overload as I was watching this one and was so disappointed in the editing room while listening back because I realized that I missed so much more than what I thought while doing this video! But alas, as is the PTX curse. It's impossible to really get everything in on one sitting!
For those of you that don't know, this video will be covering not just a reaction to what I'm watching but I'll be talking about the things that I really enjoy about what the featured artist is doing. This can range from how they have composed their music from player to player if it's a band, or the drummer himself; and what I think they're doing really well technically as well as musically! I'll also do my best to convey and educate on the things that pop out to me so that we can all appreciate the artist and what they are doing! Of course, there's only so much that can be covered in a short CZcams video so there are bound to be things that I've missed so bear with me! And now, time for the mandatory disclaimer!
NOTE:
This is going to be a reaction and analysis of the song meaning that I will be pausing the song a lot to give my thoughts, reactions and analysis so if you are here to just listen to the song with no meaningful feedback, this is not the video for you. Stay happy and healthy!
Thank you so much for stopping by and watching this video, I hope that you enjoy it!

      @@JoshCastillo I guess we’ve traveled in different circles. Been listening to and playing rock for 50 years, and drummer is the term used 99.9% of the times. Curious then … if drummer is considered derogatory, what is the preferred term? And why is drummer considered derogatory?

    • @JoshCastillo
      @JoshCastillo Před 24 dny

      @@terrychristian9580 drum set was the first percussive instrument that I ever played, but I came up classically trained. I, and even people in this comment section, who came up playing in symphony orchestras, jazz bands and marching bands strived to be percussionists (a lot of my drum set playing is jazz based). So when someone referred to us as drummers (meaning we could only play one drum I.e. skill-less vs. the wide range of percussive instruments to include mallet playing) they were likely saying it in a derogatory way, because it meant you weren’t a percussionist.

      @@JoshCastillo I get what you’re saying from your perspective and I understand why. Again, we’ve traveled in different circles. In the rock music of the 70s/80s/90s that I play, it’s not as complicated so drummer is the go-to term. But referring back to the original post, I would admit that Buddy Rich was so much more than just a drummer. But the OP of that video kept referring to him as a “drum set player”, and that is a term over never heard in my life, so it was kind of annoying to me. 🤣
