“This pocket is so deep I want to sleep in it” lol
This dude has beats as fills inside his fills inside his beats.
It's Inception with chops.
it's beatception lol
Larnell playing a Gran Turismo menu music
wut tf
I was thinking more Mario Kart
Car shopping/preview theme for sure
Fucking accurate 😂
Excellent call. How smooth were all those tunes!?
My older brother went high school with Larnell. Hard to believe but he was this good back then too...I swear he came out of the womb a drum-god already.
Jonathan Milner he was my teacher at Humber. Man, this solo made me cry!
started at age 2 i believe
I’m pretty sure, knowing nothing about Larnel’s past, he has the tiger woods type amount of training. Meaning he has probably already put more hours into learning/practice in his first 8 years alive than most adults have in their life.
AgeDrain pretty sure, from what I remember, he started playing drums at two...so yeah lol
Well, I was a teacher at Mayfield and there were always jams happening. I can assure you that Larnell was The One. Congratulations Larnell Mr. D.
Don't stop the metal, but please do more of these videos. Mix it up, we love it all!👍🤘
Yeah, this was so cool to see, at least for me.
Oddly enough metal, funk, jazz, etc they're all so different but has some similarities as well which is why I think we love it all. Nice to have a mix though.
Yes!!! I subscribe to that oh yeah metal is my cup of tea but watching this was awesome as well damn!
Things I learned from this reaction:
-"This guy's fucking good at drums"
-That was Crowley.
Garrett you smile a lot more when you watch the jazz/fusion drummers, please showcase more of that genre. Thanks.
I think it comes down to the tone of the music. This type of fusion is just so fun! Hard not to smile. I generally prefer listening to metal, but it's usually more serious, even when it's more on the bombastic side it's not as "fun".
findtheearth Its also his own preference of music so he enjoys the style more
@@findtheearth Yeah, as someone whose two favorite genres are jazz and metal, and is usually more of a metalhead, I'm going to say that jazz is way more likely to make you just grin ear to ear. It's just more fun. Metal is just more serious, even for the bands that are smart enough not to take themselves too seriously (e.g., Anthrax).
Rip Steakface well it’s not only that it’s serious is that it doesn’t usually play with time signatures as much as this type of music does at least when being played live
I think the beauty of Larnell’s pocket is the sheer range of his dynamics, most of the kit stays so quiet and he just hits those accent beats so heavy. Wish more drummers could do this.
He's a true musician at heart that respects ALL the instruments and allows to give them space when needed, always thinking of every aspect of the piece as a whole. But yeah, his dynamic range is just stupid good. A true god of drums.
10:09 you were too busy looking at the actor in the audience to notice that he tosses his sticks and smacks the shit outta his cymbals for the last beat with his HANDS
Dude, actor? Legendary drummer alright
aw shiiit, mono neon is sick
The bassist is MonoNeo. He's crazy. Plays left handed on a right handed bass (string strung as if a normal right handed bass)
Hendrix style... Love them lefties.
He also plays completely the other way also🤯
@@Aethenthebored bc its unorthodox...? the fact that he's so good that he plays backwards is what they were talking ab... idk why ur jumping on this person
You know, I wouldn't be opposed to you reacting to more of these fusion drummers and bands. If only to broaden my own horizons. I'm always interested in finding new fusion bands and the like.
These videos are much more interesting than the metal ones.
@@MegaJufy I agree. Don't get me wrong, I like the metal stuff too. But I, personally, have kinda fallen off with metal music too. I find this fusion type music far more interesting.
@@DragonFlopp Same here man. I've been a metal/hardcore punk guy all the way through my teens, but as I expanded my drumming vocabulary and my musical knowledge I've reached a point where almost no metal music interests me. The only heavy bands that I can listen to lately are The Dillinger Escape Plan, Car Bomb, Animals As Leaders and a few others when I'm in that specific mood, but not any thrash or braindead stuff like that. But yeah, since a few years back I've been heavily leaning onto fusion and latin, and man , it's just much tastier music and can be as agressive and abrasive as most metal
@@angelrgdrums Yeah dude! You get it. :)
@Josh derp uh... I'm actually sorry for you
I come back to this video every couple months just for the "get it, fuckin funky ass bass player, shit!" and it gets me every time 🤣
the whole band sounds so CRISP! god damn incredible playing and sound engineering all around
Larnell for you and others who didn’t know is the drummer who did drums for the we live here snarky puppy album aka the album with Lingus on it. larnell learned every song on that album on the plane ride over. He’s such a beast. This just proves way more of how amazing of a drummer he is. Thanks for the reaction to this. Can’t wait for season 2
“Dude is that Crowley? “ I knew I liked this guy 😂 any supernatural fans?
"Is that fuckin Crowley!?" "That IS Crowley!"
it really is tho
I commented about Crowley on the original video once it came out! Hahaha
Bassist is playing a right handed bass upside down and backwards Jimmy Hendrix style.
I was wondering if anyone else caught that
Jimi restrung his righty guitar as a lefty, Mono has his righty bass strung as a righty and played upside down - incredible!
As Alan said, Jimi did indeed restring his guitar, same as Cobain et al who were lefties using righties. I've only seen this a few times and it always seems to be lefty bass players that don't bother flipping the nut and the strings.
t c 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
Yellowjackets Stylee,..,., :D
You should definitely check out the video for Snarky Puppy’s “What About Me” if you haven’t done so already. Larnell’s an absolute beast in it
Lawrence Del Rosario what about me*
Lawrence Del Rosario I second this a million times over
Yes PLEASE. I can't find a single video of someone reacting to that banger of a song, especially Larnell's solo. I just wanna see someone's mind blown face when they hear it 😅
Yes! Pleeease some drummer needs to talk about that! Its absolutely insane!
Dude, your channel is one i retreat to to forget about the rough times we're going through at the moment. Your positively is great.
the bassist playing was TIIIIGHT
In some clips you can see EVERYONE in the room feelin it.. pure magic
MONONEON
Larnell is NUTS! he's a prof at Humber college here in Canada, Toronto to be specific. he is also a straight up humble nice human.... had to audition in front of him like 5 years back and i was extremely nervous because of how into Snarky Puppy I was at the time. Big Cheers from Canada and great job exposing drummers all over to us :)
“Just let me smack the shit out of these wind chimes real quick” 😂😂 dying
I reacted similarly when I saw Crowley too. He does the announcing at these Zildjian live gigs. Very cool! Larnell is a monster!
I've had the pleasure of working with larnell multiple times in the studio. And every time it's just a jaw dropping lesson in what is possible
"Get it, you fucking funky-ass bass player"... cracked me up haha
Pick it apart with us! I'm too dumb to understand what's going on, tell me your thoughts. There honestly isn't enough drummer breakdowns on youtube.
Larnell is an immensely talented beast of a player, and also one of the nicest and most genuine people I've ever met. He did a drum clinic in Montreal during the Montreal Jazz festival, and he brings so much heart and passion to his playing and teaching, and just being a good person. Unrelated: tell me how come that bass player looks like Snoop in disguise lol
He called mono neon “funky ass bass player.” Understatement of the year!
He is a damn beast 🔥🔥🔥
Dude, I could watch you talk about Snarky/Larnell and Tomas Haake all day.
Yes, bring back more Haake or Morgan Agren!
Please do Matt Greiner - Zildjian live! It just came out!
That's a great one too !
@@SoloNecr0zis Absolutely do this one Garrett! It's so good.
yup!!
This would very much adequate
Do itttttt
You should check out Thomas Pridgen’s performance on Zildjian Live. His energy is INSANE
Wooooooooord
Want your mind blown even more? This is his chart and his arrangement. 😳
Been waiting for you to react to this one! 😬 Thanks!
This is probably one of Larnell’s memorable ones by far. The dude is pure joy to watch!
Still come back to this video all the time. Miss your uploads!
I’m back again
savage performance! It has everything going on dynamics, precision, speed, feel, creativity, fun ..have I missed anything?
At 8:11 you can see Randy Cooke just smiling away. He's another killer Canadian drummer, and Yamaha guy....his resume is quite impressive.
Zildjian Live is a phenomenal series... awesome to see a reaction! Kaz Rodriguez is one of my favorite episodes
That ! Was ! Absolutely ! AMAZING !!!!! A nice change of pace on your channel. Totally Awesome.
Thanks for uploading this. 👍👍
The entire Zildjian live series is epic. Its amazing they granted us inside these jam sessions. Incredibly written and composed pieces by amazing drummers as well as the other musicians!
Really just a treat to witness all this greatness unfold with each video theyve uploaded.
I’m glad you’re mixing it up man. I love watching you react to the heavy stuff but you are so happy and totally in your element here. Keep it up brother
I think its awesome you choose something that it isn't from the metal world now and then.
The music and talent are fantastic as well,and shows to some people that there's things outside the metal bubble they live in. Good job,dude
I enjoyed that one at lot.
Reacting to something involving Virgil Donati would be fun to see - that guy melts my brain when it comes to drums... I think he might be an alien.
Virgil is an alien
So much yes!
thing is with Virg you need somebody that has very high competency on the thing's he does just to comment on it otherwise you just get a "guy is baffled by Virg" video. I'm a drummer but most of the time I have no idea what Virg is doing without studying it in time consuming detail.
Id love this^ virgil =monster
Yeah dude! I am so glad you reacted to this, when this video came out on Zildjian channel, I watched it like 15 times in a row, is so good, and with your funny reactions and comments on top it's even better! Thanks man, love from Italy ❤️🥁
I had the fortune to see Larnell play at Humber college on the regular. Anything recitals he played on had the whole music dept watching with jaws dropped.
I drank so much coffee this morning. That combined with this guys drumming - I was about to spin out of my chair.
I love how people react in that studio, including yours Garret..I see happy faces! Larnell Lewis is a beast! Oh God..I'm happy watching this video..thanks man!
you should check out his solo on "The City Lights", written by himself! absolute beast mode!
fantastic. i learn so many good expressions from these videos woven in with the drumming commentary.
Awesome vid, just started playing bass and this was a treat ! As well as seeing you digging this so hard G, I love it
Larnell is an absolute beast! Love that solo so much, and all that ‘space’ in his playing 🔥
And that pocket, man, listen to the bass and all that slapping and popping going on….
Loved your appreciation of that track :)
For another weirdly named fusion band, check out Swedish pop/jazz/funk trio Dirty Loops and their Metheny inspired track “Work Shit Out”, with some mean bass and keys playing and a fire drum solo. I’d be very, very interested in your reaction to that-! 👍
Thanks bro 🙏
Yess!! Been watching a lot of Snarky Puppy and Larnell Lewis this weekend, and had this thought that this specific video would be great to have you react to, and damn it if it's not here! I guess isolation makes us telepathic? No?
Would love to see more non-metal from you, and more stuff where you recommend your favourite drummers, too. 👊🥁💪
I thoroughly enjoyed this! Thank you!
Hell yea. And mono neon!!! Great vid man.
I rewound this so many times! Especially during the solo at the end. Jeeeeeesus! "This guy's fucking good at drums." I fucking concur 🤯
Love the positive vibes and Grooove!..
So I have recently discovered you during this quarantine and have had a blast with your videos. As a death metal musician, but of course love all music, thank you for keeping an open mind and focusing on the creativity and talent instead. You're awesome!
Was nice waking to a feel good song with a feel good reaction this a.m. Thanx G.
Haha! Dude....that was awesome. Great watching it with you (feels like that anyway). Dang that was nasty! Woo!
Love the videos man, just wanted to say my drum teacher actually went to school (Humber Collage) with Larnell Lewis which I thought was pretty cool. Keep up the good work and keep making videos!!!
Dude, I love your enthusiasm, it's extremely infectious and just what I need right now haha. Keep it up mate, you've got a new sub in me.
That drum solo gave me chills 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Return to Forever, Mahavishnu Orchestra, Weather Report, Crusaders, Tribal Tech, Vital Information etc.
Mahavishnu is nice!!!
Return to forever is soo difficult on drum. The romantic warrior ❤️
@@chantalgritti7394 lenny white!!!
2 of which I've never heard
So big up thanks
Yes!!!!!!
Larnell is a beast and no offence to him he deserves all the praise, but Pridgen absolutely KILLED in this zildjian video series. Absolutely murdered it
He didn’t pay attention to the fact them at Larnell literally slapped the cymbals with his am hands at the end🔥
Man, this was fantastic.. ;)
Love your reactions !
As a Metalhead, I can see why you love this stuff....it's killer. I love it. Thanks for introducing me to new stuff👍
Getting massive 80s/90s Fusion Jazz vibes a la Cassiopea from this, and I fucking love it!
I love your videos man. :)
new subscriber! love your reactions. obvious you know your stuff!
Definitely my favorite drummer
About time buddy!
i love the sock on the headstock of the bass.
I think that is the best drummer that i've seen on your channel
I haven't been out of my house for 7 days now, THANKS for the videos :)
I'd like to see more of this...
Mix it up some more, I love extreme music but it's nice to see you react to music that inspires you.
Stay safe and healthy.
I’m just laughing at how he was feeling it in the first 15 seconds...I’m thinking to myself U have no idea what’s to come. 😭
OMG you took down your Lingus reaction. It was one of the best reaction vids!
Thomas Pridgen Zildjian Live and this one... AMAZING!!! All the videos are great but these two, DAAAAAAMN!!!
Man I just discovered your channel in the CZcams galaxy and I just wanna leave a big thumb up and a sub for sure, I think you're a very chill and smart guy to consume haha. Keep it up👍
Glad I found this channel
Awesome!
"Get it! Fucking funky ass bass player" - me every time mono neon is on the screen
Was going to recommend this! The Thomas pridgen one is enjoyable as well 🙏🏽
What I saw I think is illegal in 20 states. It is that great! I'll never listen to music the same way again, I can't unhear that MASTERPIECE.
Love Zildjian live a lot of great drummers .
So good!
The percussionist is nate werth and he’s one of my favorite
Drumming is so cool! And your videos and you and everything. #Duchennemetal
This made me smile so much I fractured my jaw
So many parts of that melted my face off
that little slide on the hi-hats was filthy!
Your videos always give me some good suggestions for new bands.
It has already been said but I think you should continue on reacting to metal but there are also other types of music with great drumming.
This was grooooovy 👏
Hahaha, love your reaction! :-D
Literally the “I just wanna dance” statement you made is EXACTLY what a drummer wants to hear
I'm glad you got around to this one. Such a great video/performance! Larnell is such a fantastic drummer & musician. Another great video from the Zildjian live series is the new one with Matt Greiner (August Burns Red). Matt is another solid drummer. Check it out when you get a chance!
Thanks to garret millers subscribers i discovered 2 things watching his channel= Darnell Lewis and Snarky puppy ....thank you im a metal player predominantly but i always reach out and grab ahold of something that I like out of my comfort zone music wise im hooked
So interesting / ironic how the 'jazz face' is so similar to the 'metal face'.
Like in a direct comparisson is the same.
Its just that absolute 'damn' groove face.
I believe most if not all metal heads appreciate their jazz counter parts and would be pulling a stank face to this 🤘
You should really check out Larnell playing One Note Samba. One of the best drum performances I've ever seen
Haha dude best reaction yet. I'm a metal guitar player, I've watched most of your reactions
