That piccolo sound was INSANELY popular in the 90s. And, it has nothing to do with my personal preference, but I ABSOLUTELY feel the piccolo was the way to go, especially with the beautiful dynamic you'd get with a punchy, low-end kick. Just perfection. David from Korn used this dynamic to great effect on both "Life is Peachy" and "Follow the Leader".
He's got some very respectable chops. To those who are saying he's off tempo, look up syncopation, and utilizing other time signatures within 4/4, this guy is on point.
Troll comment. I know drumming and never told others they didn't. I just explain what I think. And regarding Otto, super Groover. Feel, touch and choice. He had it here. What's your excise
i love the points where it seems like he's about to screw up and not land it on the beat but pulls it together in this weird changing of space and time kinda way, love when he does that on the drum solo in Nobody Like You
this guy has a great feeling of music, he got that groove, he brought a lot in new metal with his jazz school and been developing through limp bizkit albums. he has his own style, just listen to a short solo in "nobody like you" i think its a great drum solo there.. its not much of the technique, but with great feeling and emotion. that's what every drummer needs besides the technique part.
Awesome drummer! It's amazing how a drummer as good as John Otto can put in a bunch of complicated fills then come back in spot on to the beat/music. I'd be so lost/rushed but then again my limit is wipe out or we got the beat!
That fill at 4:08 is legit one of the best I’ve ever heard, all of his playing in this, in fact, he pushes and pulls and lands on 4 in the craziest ways.
@311Vision its pure otto! one of his signatures. personally, i would never play a snare like that, but he makes it work in a way thats awesome. just one of the many reasons i idolize the guys playing.
@antilus709 What you're referring to is called syncopation. The only signature change he makes is from 4:4 to 6:8 for fills, neither of which are "off-time".
John Otto is amazing :p Only problem, his drum kit is so large by now...you can't really see him during shows :D he aint the tallest drummer around but he got one of the biggest kits around. I really hope Limp Bizkit will make a new Album soon
@ThomasMetal75 Aesthetics... well, not for all drummers, For Example, The Rev of Avenged Sevenfold, His drum kit is really huge too: 11 Cymbals, 6 Toms, 3 bass drums. but he still uses them all! except his 2009 Kit(he passed away in 2009), he used a Double Pedal on the middle bass drum, the 2 other bass drums are for aesthetics again..
John Otto, Take 'em to the Matthew's Bridge
Krispynachos 99 Dj lethal bring it on! Oooooooh yeeeaahh
Can You Feel It?
@@TheBlooBerriBoi my g-g-generation!
Hell yeah
welcome to the jungle, punk
One of the best drummers in Nu metal no doubt. Love it or hate it, Limp Bizkit had the best drum sound back then. In my opinion.
Still the best in my book especially these days lmao
Very similar to early korn sound with david silveira
And Chad from Deftones
That’s studio magic. Not OV drums. They are actually pretty crappy.
He's a god damn machine dude! He will always be in my top 5. Unmatched unique technical skills
I’ve always loved his snare sound. So crisp.
Signature jazz/funk snare

heyimgoingtoplaysomegames actually in follow the leader he used some type of 14x6.5 bubinga or maple tama starclassic but just cranked it
Indeed.
The snare??? That yes also, but he is the master of cymbals
I love this because it shows he has the chops and yet holds back and plays exactly what’s right for the band when he plays for Limp Bizkit
I think being a student of John Otto is the dream of every drummer.
Its never been my dream

One of my favourite drummer ever.
john ottos always been one of my favorite drummers. he knows the groove and rhythm feel like no one else.
i just love otto´s drumming in limpbizkit´s "nobody like you"
has got a nice solo and some groovy breakbeats
i love the points where it seems like he's about to screw up and not land it on the beat but pulls it together in this weird changing of space and time kinda way, love when he does that on the drum solo in Nobody Like You
John is an under-rated drummer..man you can learn a lot from this guy!

People forget to realize that he was in jazz band in high school so that's why he has a good tempo
You know its 90s/early 2000s when theres Zildjian Zs
he's so underrated
That Ocdp snare sounds killer 🙏🏻
Awesome drummer! It's amazing how a drummer as good as John Otto can put in a bunch of complicated fills then come back in spot on to the beat/music. I'd be so lost/rushed but then again my limit is wipe out or we got the beat!
Needs to be more drum clips like this of John there barley any I thought there would be more by now ffs. Amazing drummer still
used to idolise this guy wen I played drums! he had a unique style and tone!
Brilliant
got this solo a travis barker solo a chad sexton solo and an adrian young interview on a cd rom when i ordered my ocdp kit a couple of years ago.
He plays with so much emotion. That gives his style the degree of perfection.
MMMMMM That OCDP snap snare. 😍
John Otto.... A genius... A god alive!! No comment
He is soooo frkn good.
And that snare sound is still to die for.
I appreciate the ghost in their music.
john otto is a sick drummer. not cuz of his technical skill but cuz he's playing with SOUL.. which in my opinion is wut it comes down to
05:01
John giving himself advice while the other John gives him the exact same advice!
that's the kind of musician I love to see: doesn't necessarily play only his band style, but knows how far music goes, eclectically amazing.
John Otto rocks!! Love his style.
1% John Otto, 99% Porn
I want to like this comment but with 69 likes i cant. Thumbs up!
just gorgeous drumming....so good
i love that fucking snare it's so crunchy
He's one of my favorites.
He's got gospel chops 🤌
I also proper want his outstanding drum kit! Its BEAUtiful!
killer jazz lick, love it, great job dude!
This guy fits in more diddles than Flanders.
Love his style, funky and cool at the same time.
my new favourite drummer!
he seems like a great jazz drummer... he should play hip hop rock.
That fill at 4:08 is legit one of the best I’ve ever heard, all of his playing in this, in fact, he pushes and pulls and lands on 4 in the craziest ways.
with this guy i started playing air drums and began to get interested in drums. Really nice influence from him.
haha take em to the matthews bridge!! gotta love jacksonville.
I’ve always loved his hi-hat too. No matter who uses it, it’s always “ah yes the Otto hi-hat”
After reading about him in several publications, and with all of the training & studying he says he has done, I was expecting more from him.
i always love his hit hat work
he is amazing
i love this video
Hes an absolute legend, my hero!!!! :) :) :)
Hey! gracias, está genial!!
some bad-ass talent right there !
John Otto was a jazz drumer before he met Limp Bizkit!... it's not "out of time" it's Jazz
Increíble drummer!!!!!!
John most awesome drummer
def one of my favorite drummers, playing fast isnt anything, its about technique and finesse, that's impressive.
Legend
man blew my mind...
Completely underrated
Insane
Someone knows name of the track he s playing along? Love this
john otto is great:o
this guy is amazing 5 stars
This is nice
He started out as a jazz drummer; he's just grooving. I respect the guy, despite his choice of band (i.e. Limp Bizkit).
He did it all for the ______
@@dodjiegarcia2320 Nookie
otto is a maestro
John Otto best drumer in the earth. Limp bizkit - Argentina - 26 de Octubre yeeeaahh baby!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Alternative title : John Otto plays old school porn soundtrack
That's a peaceful drum solo style and it's fine, why not? :D. Very nice
I really wanna see the layout of this drumset
i really did not expect him to play this good...
great drummer
@311Vision
its pure otto! one of his signatures. personally, i would never play a snare like that, but he makes it work in a way thats awesome. just one of the many reasons i idolize the guys playing.
Never saw him play double kick bass until i saw this video
limp biz and john otto are good
he had a pretty cool pocket at the start for like 15 secs,then it just all falls to shit, nice work taking us to the matthews bridge
the best drummer
@snarfizzle Hell yeah bro. My Vented-20-ply OC snare is sensitive/dry enough, but 30 and 40-ply OC snare? damn! Looks like a hollowed-out tree trunk.
I like his fill- ins
@antilus709
What you're referring to is called syncopation. The only signature change he makes is from 4:4 to 6:8 for fills, neither of which are "off-time".
he´s got some really nice rhythm
One of the best nu metal drummers, no doubt🎉
3.18am time for one more john otto vid.
1 of the best drummers xd
John and sam are the backbone of Lb alway's a clean nice play at their show's
haha wow listen to him in LB. this guy has alot of passion and plays with his heart. he is a good drummer.
John Otto is amazing :p
Only problem, his drum kit is so large by now...you can't really see him during shows :D he aint the tallest drummer around but he got one of the biggest kits around.
I really hope Limp Bizkit will make a new Album soon
Dude sure does like his triplets.
@throbbingmember THANKYOU!
super
Nice editing!
nice groove
Does someone know where to get this music? Btw great style
Why is this guy so underrated.
Agreed, for a 'Metal' drummer, this guy has got such a nice groove.
And yet people will continue to come to a video of someone they hate judging from some of the comments.
@indicajones thats why LB are so awesome!
@phillymetalhead I know right? That batter head on the OC 40-ply snare is just flopping! What is he thinking?
que groso como lo amo a este chabon
Aguante limp bizkit!!
Vengan a Argentina a tocar por favor!
