Check out Brendan Buckley's electronic/acoustic hybrid drum set on Shakira's El Dorado world tour. It's about 50/50, he says, between pads and acoustic drums. Many of the acoustic drums also have triggers, and the final mix often has a blend of both miked drums and samples from the triggers.
This massive kit includes gear from DW, LP, Sabian, Roland, Vic Firth, and Big Fat Snare Drum. - Hudba
We worked with Brandon when he subbed for Miley, the nicest most humble guy and a great player! People should understand what it takes to do these gigs, the playing is only a small part of it, attitude and being a solid player is why he’s been with Shakira for over a decade!
Well said!
Over rated
@@DeeDee-dd4kk He isn't. Not only is he plenty capable of handling the musical material (combined with the digital operations), but he LOOKS the role. I gotta go reply to another idiot who has attempted to mince my words regarding the stage-presence matter.
Darrell Craig Harris met him at namm this year and was such a chill guy. After his signing at remo I ran into him on the show floor and I got go chat with him about gear and a few genre style things and he was really nice about hanging out for a minute to chat
Darrell Craig Harris Consistent work has always been a huge indication of musical maturity. People can shit on pop all they want, but’s it’s very clear to me after watching videos like this that the drummers for the artists have to be INSANLEY multifaceted and knowledgeable. Love it.
That's not a drum kit...that's a spaceship
Haha
Lol ikr, with all those pedals I was waiting for him to show us a throttle pedal and brake pedal too.
This dude is a beast on a top multi-million dollar world tour and we have people commenting below, telling him he has too much kit and how to do his job. Haha. Smh.
Notice that those people are not professional musicians.
Haters r gonna hate
I love his rig. I actually think it's efficiently sized and layed out. I wish he would have mentioned if the Octapad was using its internal sounds or if he was triggering samples.
Music One he does have too much kit and he has to do his job the way I tell him
@@ryansams1268 hahaha so true
first time I've ever looked at a kit and felt a little frightened. I'll be over here working on my rudiments.
I have to agree. How does he even keep track of all that stuff? Scary
its a nice set but neil peart has more.
I
Exactly and who cares? Excellent comment Nero. I love Neil but this is a different generation (and it's apples and oranges anyway). Stop comparing people. Just go with it and learn something.
Dare you to look at Portnoy's DT sets.
Imagine missing with your left foot and an explosion goes off
Colman Burks good one bro 🤷🏼♂️
Da fuck that has to do with anything? Go take your meds kid!
GrumblyAirMonk if you actually watch the video rather than insulting the guy. The drummer says that one of his pedals controls confetti cannons for shakira as there isn’t always music to end on for a cue so he will push the foot pedal to create the explosions.
🤣
GrumblyAirMonk @stupidpolice
It’s incredible the amount of detail he has to work with. You wonder how much of the audience would appreciate it
So this guy gets paid very good money to tour the world, play this insane kit and watch Shakira shake her hips from behind. Suddenly my life doesn't seems that good..😑
@@jgt_ I have a friend who plays bass in a couple of important bands here in my country(we are talking South America) and he gets like 2K a night, it's not bad money. So this guy playing for Shakira (an A-list world wide star) should be making at least ten.
Boohoo
Jezen Thomas don’t worry mate, this guy is making bank, you can be sure of that.
i mean on average, big name drummer (touring the world not just their own country) can make anywhere from 50-100 thousand a show. Soo you are wrong sir
and depending on the amount of shows they play, they can accumulate millions a year.
This man isn't a drummer, he's a profesional percussionist that sit on the throne
Thats what you gotta be these days if you want a good gig playing drums
Professional, but plays the easiest shortcut of rolling the drums
I mean that's generally what drummers have become and I believe it's actually a pretty good thing, since it keeps pushing you to practice.
And this pedal opens the safe at the 7-11 on Wilshire Blvd
this game me a good laugh, thanks
RIP roadies
Roadie? In what decade are you living in? There is one overpayed drumtech and three Stagehands and while the Stagehands working thier ass off getting no fucking credit, the drumtech flys off to the catering to get some coffee and food.
OFFICIAL Falcon Turner It's all about qualifications bro, the drum tech probably went to university, meticulously studied drum sounds, maintenance, everything drum related day in, day out, for years. Not to mention the fact that drum techs are usually BETTER drummers than who they're working for. Now as for stagehands, well that's just manual labour which you can get into the day you leave school. It's also not considered marketable, therefore, no credit. The moral of the story is, the harder you work developing a specific set of skills, the more benefits you reap.
OFFICIAL Falcon Turner At no point did I say that stagehands didn't deserve credit dude! I said that they don't GET credit, which I was actually agreeing with you on.
Well yeah, tuning is a big one for starts, they gotta be able to change a drum skin and tune it in 30 seconds flat if something went wrong, that takes practice. They would also have to learn everything about drum sample layering, EQ, Compression, Saturation, etc. They're basically mixing engineers as well as phenomenal drummers. Not everyone can do that.
Much love from England!
Tim Parker ?
@@officialfalconturner7874 Well, I worked as a drum tech, and to get to gigs where stage hands do the manual labor, you actually have to do it yourself plus the actual drum tech job. And yes: Big shows are completely fuc.ed without stage hands.
He’s doing the work of a drummer and 2 additional percussionists. Exceptionally impressive and the tour gets to save $$ not hiring additional musicians.
she problably has additional percussion
bruh... i just got an anxiety attack thinking of how he dissassembles and assembles them back again every gig ...
Roadies do it for him
FIEND __1593 lucky bastard 😂
Ble3eding Plays he doesn’t disassemble shit
FIEND __1593 but still
I think he needs a whole day to do that
“Uh, look, another timbale”
Like it suddenly appeared there lol
I'm sure she doesn't lip sync.
I have a 13”,14” and 10” timbales on my kit Love them when they are needed they are there. For reggae and world/ Latin riddims.
SURELY singular of timbales is timbal?
Steve Carter yes!!
I like seeing drummers use big kits in mainstream pop music. It's very interesting to see how they use all that gear in a musical context that's not prog rock or fusion.
Why do all people having negative comments here? He is a great drummer with a nice personality, he is a professional drummer,he knows exactly what he does,he doesn't deserve your judgements plsssss,🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
SHAKIRA: Heres a blank check, Go buy a drumset
GUITAR CENTER: YEs Sir, can we help you?
BRENDAN: I need to buy a drumset
GUITAR CENTER: Sure thing, what were you looking for?
BRENDAN: Everything in the back two rooms. ALso, do you guys have an Explosion pedal?
GUITAR CENTER: Absolutely, youre gonna want the 3 year warranty with that.
😂😂😂👌
BRENDAN " naa....Im only going to be using it for this tour ".........FML
I wonder if he rather went with Sweetwater!? Amazing kit. does guitar center sell Radial?
I think he’s endorsed by drum companies
Soooo...... he does not to buy the drum set, just a few
The three year warranty killed me
Compare this to Buddy Rich’s setup! How times have changed! Amazing! And I’m not comparing. Different eras, different drumming. All good.
Spirituality1980 for some reason this comment made me happy
But he is playing pop/world music on this gig not big band
Buddy was always looking forward that set up would'nt have fazed him he had a talent way beyond that
I'm not fan of shakira and the music that he plays but shakira has a complex combination of different sound in percussion parts maybe not very complex musically but different pitches and style like synth rock, jazz, rega, south American styles... even middle east and... This guy needs to this drum kit or maybe more than this for performance different styles and sound sometimes in one song!
Forget Buddy Rich. Ringo Starr!!!
This is what a professional looks like
thorjoetunheim He has a ridiculous setup and uses every bit of it. Nothing there is for show. He knows exactly why, when, and how to use all of that equipment to enhance his artists show. And her shows are massive. Very professional in my opinion.
@thor Anyone with a clue can tell what a professional looks like by the fact that he presented every part of his kit and explained what it was for.
He's Shakira's touring drummer - you think her record company wouldn't hire a professional drummer?
You think they'd risk having someone screw up a show which they spend money to produce?
She headlines tours around countries, it's all about her.
Man, someone take this kid back to school, shit.
Jay is completely correct - I sensed the professionalism as soon as I noticed the 2 laptops and then he spoke of the monitors.
Oh, and I've been drumming a little while.
Your experience in drumming isn't relevant, I too have been drumming over 10 years; check my profile.
It's your deductive reasoning that is the problem here. I have no more time for you, figure it out - if he drums and tours for money for Shakira, he's a professional.
Full stop. End of story.
If you don't understand that, think about what type of artist Shakira is and how she's manufactured/produced/etc.
jayshizzle2323 professionals come in all shapes sizes and equipment set ups.
D Gee exactly , Fuckin Weird
People complain about how nowadays music is all artificial and nobody plays instruments anymore and when someone actually play all those sound effects manually they complain that it's too much smh
Thank you for recognizing that. Just because the sounds aren't made acoustically doesn't mean there isn't a performance aspect involved in playing them live.
Not trying to say you're wrong or anything but Shakira isn't exactly recent music considering she started in 1988.
A lot of pop electronic artist now are getting in real drummers, Chainsmokers got in Matt McGuire as their official tour drummer and they found him via a cover of one of their songs on CZcams!
Great point!
Mad props for people who can do that. That stuff is definitely not easy to keep track of
"and here is my backup drum kit"
That's a cool kit, love the combination electric/acoustic...I'd have fun playing that, I bet he does....
Thank you for this amazing rig run down. Wonderful!
I am a guitarist and by definition I used amplification and therefore electronics. On top of that I am an IT guy so needless to say I use computers and more electronics blah blah. There is a constellation of electronics you can use and I always get this clash with ol school guitarists that favored all guitar things away from computers and keep it more "tube". I don't give 3 shits. Now looking at this drum set up I am soooooo fascinated at how well planned and responsible he is. Like NASA he has redundancy in his set up. This is how a professional does it. I am about to pick up drums and teach myself and this is very motivating... except I will learn on a $500 Alesis electric kit my son doesn't use anymore LOL! Anyways this kits seems like the Millennium Falcon's cabin! I would just love to have a quarter of that and just go at it and disturb the neighbors, LOL! This is very educational, not sure about why would anybody hate on this guy. I would like to see him play the latin percussion he had on the side, or tribal as he called it.
Pocho Nieves you should check out KJ Sawka and follow the links around. He ends up in a million dollar midi suit eventually with the band Destroid.🤘 talk about complex setups.
Great kit, great gig, great talent. What I would like to see is a time lapse of breakdown, and set up, and your carting. I bet it is mind boggling!
YOU. JUST. GIVES ME ALOT N LOTS OF IDEAS. THANK--YOU. SO MUCH. I HAVE A BIG. PICTURE OF SHAKIRA IN MY STUDIO. AND. I LOVE HER!!! YOU. ARE. A LUCKY-GUY.....AND. YOU DESERVE IT. !!!! GRACIAS
Very nice setup. Thank you for sharing
Just imagine the time and thought that went into setting up the sounds for every single song!
Totally amazing! I’m building something (waaay smaller) like this and it’s really refreshing to see how he puts this rig to use.
Cool! In our conversation before this video, he mentioned that for people looking to get started with adding electronics to their kit, a good place to start would be a multipad and a kick trigger pad. He's a Roland guy, so he plays the SPD-SX multipad and and the KD-10 kick pad.
Wow what a beast of a kit his drum tech earns every cent
That is such an amazing setup! I love the two mbp laptops running native instruments simultaneously. I was always curious to see how running drum 🥁 software live would work. Especially for a huge show like a Shakira show.
what an amazing setuppp
Hey DRUM! mAg.....more of these setup collections please. Very cool.
Al final del video tocando una chacarera. Grande mostroooo
Wow, this guy is my hero...what a setup!!
THIS guy is your hero? ... :/
very impressive, love hybrid kits!
wow. that kit though 😍😍😍
Fantastic! I've heard Brendan on the i'd hit that podcast a few times. Seems like a great guy. Man! Here I am grumbling about having to set up a cowbell and mini timbale on my kit when I do a wedding gig...ha ha! I even went to a four piece, so I wouldn't have to carry an extra tom on my cart…
I know. Thank god he has a tech. I'd hat to have to set up that rig daily.
Good thing he has roadies to set up and break down!
Relatable bro. But as some people already replied, life is easier when you have your own drum tech haha. I guess at that level you just show up for the soundcheck and leave after the show.
Never can understand people that hate on integrating electronic elements into a kit.
like, excuse me while I'm over here using literally any sound I want on the planet, k thx bye.
Konka Bass ikr sorry that I get to play on almost any kit in existence lmao
Stupid
Elitists mainly. No idea who hurt them or why they'd be on a Shakira video but hey, there we are.
Just great stuff, thx Drum! and Brendan!
indeed Massive Electronic - great modern drummer - playing all the sounds that´s needed from the production live on stage!
Sick kit! You can do so much with custom sounds and loops. Didn't think I'd see another set bigger than Danny Carey's of Tool.
Thats an industry professional right there.
Saw this through to the end and I’m blown away, killer set up 😎
WOw, really impressive setup. Never saw a splash on top of a ride, I never could play without my ride's bell :-D
More pedals than a bike shop.
Meanwhile, Charlie Watts just carried his kit to the gig.
This is a serious ass setup.
What an amazing setup. I can't imagine making sure all of this stuff is working every night. Looks so complicated!
Brendan is real do it all professional. I would enjoy to have him in my band. Real pro right here.
So a drummer for a pop artist has a drum kit that puts metal drummers to shame awesome
Metal drummers have no money.
Que brutaaaaaal este es el nivel que hay que llegar... Level 🔥🔥
Omg! In San Jose? Dang! I was there that night it was amazing!! Great night even ! That was her last tour in North America!! 💛
Cool to see those kit yours 😊 learn alot 😊😊
I don’t know how Brendan keeps this all straight.
Rich Boshart this magical person called a drum tech.
Drum tech sneaked that extra timbale in there. 😄
a double pedal for a shakira concert..... i've seen it all
2020 and people still thinking double pedal is only for metal and stuff.
Sometimes it's only for noise at the end of a song.
it's for when Shakira does her Meshuggah cover
@@theblackestvoid i dont know if i can put a figure on how much id pay to see that
Tremendo set!
La chacarera final me encantó!
Brendan thanks for the detail in your set up for a newbie older guy whom always wanted to learn drums
Now I'm curious of how often a backup of something gets used
More comments complaining about haters than actual haters in this thread
^
😆 ahh the irony!! 😂🤣😆
ALWAYS respect pop drummers. ALWAYS!
Alfredo Sincovich well I’m sure he can play everything else as well.
Wow!!!that kits deserve MEDAL OF HONOR
Playing for a pop star looks complex. Very cool though. There must be tons of work that goes into each of his shows just to prepare and get the samples ready. Colour me impressed.
guess im listening to a bit more shakira
Im glad I have a 4 piece kit mainly because Im able to take it apart and set it up
Epic. Amazing preparation
When you lie on your resume and he takes you through his routine set up 😳
That's what I call a true professional musician ! Amazing gear . Hopefully the laptops won't shut down during the gig ! Good luck ; ) Why didn't you lend the guy your mic ? Then we could have understood him a bit better .
Lots of gadgets, a professional does not make... (or musician)
Thank you very much . I'm very happy about your nice words !
Haha... laptops don't shut down on guys such as Shakira's drummer... rofl... we must learn to accept our lot?
Hmm your word in God's ear ! Have you ever heard of Bill Bruford's nightmare in the Madison Square Garden? Simmons SDX - Black out ! Since then , never again electronics on stage
@MorbidManMusic Yeah probably tours with a worldwide artists because he sucks. I mean it's only obvious.
Dude this all seems so complicated. It's amazing to keep track of all of it.
Yes, love to see drumming skills, where is it??? I see so many talented drummers on this channel but like to see his too. No offence meant.
My favorite Drummer ever
I want a bass drum peddle that drops confetti! 😂🎉
How long does it takes to assemble all those
He has no ides, his drum techs do all the work.
Great kit!
Holy moly. What a dream set
TO ALL THE HATERS....
THATS WHY HE IS ON CZcams TOURING THE WORLD AND YOU ARE HATING WATCHING HIS VIDEO....
THIS GUY KNOW HIS ART....LIKE BON JOVI SAID.....HE SEES A MILLION FACES AND HE ROCKED THEM ALL!!!!!!!!
Brown nose
now a day, in order to play a drum, you need to study electronics and computer science first hahahahah
@tututuims ieijebdo i think what he meant by that is that you need to earn quite abit of money to have a drumset
@tututuims ieijebdo let me listen to your theory. I didnt say that you need to be rich to have a drumset. I just said that i think he thinks that you need to be rich
Awesome drum set 🥁🔥
Awesome setup, and an awesome Drummer 🤟. Honestly, I would mostly go to see Shakira live just so I could listen to him play haha 😂
This gives me anxiety! Holy cow that's a lot of gear to keep straight.
Like piloting a spaceship. I don’t think I could keep track of everything! He even has to keep his eyes on her to trigger the explosions!? Those acoustic drums sounded great !
Flippin craaaaaaazy! 😲😲😲😲😲
Really nice set-up!
This drum set is 3 houses and a Lamborghini...
my guess is around 10000 dollars
@@PEP. 25,000 just about
I'm a guitarist I play metal I thought my rig was complicated
Great looking young gun. Also a very intelligent drummer. congratulations Brendan.
This kit and all that is going on in insane. The view must be good at times as well.
He really doesn't have much to remember. As an experienced E drummer myself I can attest to the fact that if you do this on a regular basis, it's not difficult remembering what each pad will trigger for each song. I've performed highly elaborate and sophisticated pieces such as Jan Hammer's "Oh Yeah" and "Time is Free" on pads, even playing a 144 note MiniMoog solo on ONE pad (Alternate Mode DrumKat) with pitch bend via pedal and note hold via breath controller. So, just sayin' - he doesn't have it too tough and he's not just triggering sound fx - not at all. I DO love his laptop setup with a backup! Great rig he has.
Why would he need a double pedal for that kind of music?
Why not?
@@da5e usually double bass beats are a signature thing for metal you know?
@@aliss7128 Double pedals are used for a lot more than just hammering sixteenths, man .
Diego González live versions of pop music are surprisingly pretty dope. I went to an Ariana Grande concert last year and the drummer killed it. It was basically a completely different version from what you hear in the record. Much better live imo.
Nope. It was popularized by german metal, but existed a long time before.
Wow, that is crazy. Back up macs, back up wireless / wired packs. Prepared for everything.
Thanks for watching, everyone! Check out drummagazine.com for more cool drum stories and videos!
"really complex patterns" on a shakira song ?:D
they might do a cover of something like bleed, you never know :P xD
yes, why does that surprise you?
how are your latin chops? how are your tribal polyrhythmic patterns?
If you could play latin then you wouldn't even ask that silly sarcastic question
Clearly never heard shakira
Don't know too much about drumming. But when I see a drummer describing his drum kit I get amused. Because of this, now I want to listen to Shakira, damn!
Holy crap, what a setup!
This honestly seems like entirely too much imo
Actually is not that much, and a lot of cymbals are there so he don't have to turn entirely around to reach them. It's not a minimalistic set but there's everything he uses.
Guido Rodríguez actually, in my opinion it is too much. That's my opinion. Which is why I said that in the first place.
@@WilliamEdwardJacob Sorry, didn't meant to hurt your ego
The only opinion that matters in a professional setting is that of the artist/musical director. Of course we all have our own opinions - however valueless they may be.
You have to remember that the tour contains songs that have all the different sounds by default. You either can add the drums via a playback, or you play them live. When you play them live, well this is how it looks like in order to get it right. That's why her live shows sound so amazing.
What you consider being "too much" is relative. Too much for what? You can't play the show this way, by using a standard kit.
That's quite a good kit setup imo
Wow, this guy has some amazing gear, a great setup I am officially jealous of your job and your gear.
I love that colour so much
wow..a complete package!
You are the man!
Wow!! What a hi tech drum set...
wicked!
Pretty impressive !
