What blows my mind is that the Bongo Song was never played or intended to be played by a single drummer. It's played by two drummers, which makes this cover nearly unbelievable.
...with a lot of help from a drum machine...
@@Kiham80 El Estepario is the drum machine.
@@CM.243 Agreed! But the first dudes are not :P
100% mate it was made for an ochestra or percussion and other instruments you don’t even hear the gap where the other instruments are he’s that seemless I know some amazing drummers I’m not half bad myself , played for a few known musicians and just wow this guys mustard indeed ❤️
It’s played by two guys in the original and they play the same beat. So it was intended for one
He is without a doubt the first drummer that could go on tour by himself just playing cover!! He would be a sell out every night!!
His Gravity blasting is amazing. This guy can play anything. He's absolutely hands down the best drummer I have ever heard.
I’ve been watching amazing and legendary drummers for years, and nobody is doing what he’s doing or is as talented. Period. He’s absolutely the most talented drummer alive, and the attention he’s bringing to the drums is fantastic. Most unbelievable speed, accuracy, coordination, and technique in the biz!
I think similar about it - although Id say objectively there is probably some ppl in the world who have or had similar impact / skill that I just did not recognize yet. That being said- I started drumming because of Estepario- which probably says something.
Still he is pretty humble and has nothing but good words about other legends like Thomas Lang and else. Fact is: neither Thomas Lang nor the Dreamtheater drumming crew or any other famous drummers made me feel about drums how Estepario did. Not even close.
Estepario does incredible things which are still kinda "easy to listen to" not only expressing expertise through some polyrythm 5/43 over 2/3 like Thomas Lang and others. Estepario just has this natural musicality - paired with loads of practice and technical expertise.
He is today’s Buddy Rich. Everyone treated the trap kit a certain way until Buddy came along. We’ve had a long drought of everyone chasing Buddy. Not a drummer alive would even suggest someone was better or is currently better than him. This guy is absolutely on Buddy’s level and has the life left to pass him. The promised one has arrived to begin an entirely new era of trap drum kit usage.
He has stated in other videos that the reason he is able to play at that level is all due to practice. But from what I can tell, besides having supernatural four-limb independence, he thinks creatively outside the box more than most people. He is amazing.
THE BEST DRUMMER OUT THERE FULL STOP 🛑 this is years
Of hard practice and dedication he eats and sleeps drums this is his life 🙏
The dude is out of this world. There are lots of very talented fingers and percussionists. But there's something really special with this dude. It's so damn awesome and such a treat to see him play. Great video. 👍
I think he is pure instinct without thinking it…he IS each beat, each roll, each symbol…he becomes One with his Kits…and his Kits vary from video to video. He’s an artist and fully committed to each moment he’s Drumming. It’s my take but the only way I can explain the extraordinary talent of this man…Bravo! 👏👏👏
He's basically Bruce Lee behind drums. Be drums, my friend.
His basic kit stays the same throughout every video. Just look carefully. Doesn't rule out the fact that he becomes one with the song.
@@dennisrehrmann6710 🤣🤣🤣🤣
The speed of his single stroke rolls is insane
I remember the first time I heard Safri Duo do Played-A-Live, I was amazed at how cool it sounded with both of them playing. El Estepario Siberiano sounds every bit as good or better doing it solo. He's on a completely different level.
💯🐐
And they Was a duo. Safri Duo, they played this song on two drums and with four hands. But, just for the record, they not played the leg things. So mr Siberiano making two and half job alone. :)
@@TranceFanHungary But this guys "leg things" are insane on their own. He can work those pedals like no one I've ever seen before, so I would go as far as saying he's doing the job of 3.5 drummers. He is incredible. And self taught in 11 years or something ridiculous. Wow!
@@smokeybenj totaly agree! 🙂
Man, I'm so glad I'm not a percussionist.
Many don't like the word "GENIUS", well I'm sorry for many, but this guy is a "GENIUS".
I have been studying music since I was 7 years old, and never in my student or work life have I seen anyone play like that, I have seen exceptional percussionists, I have seen incredible ones but this man is a "DEMON" playing the drums, literally.
The great violinist Nathan Milstein once said, "Either you can play it, or you can't play it," as simple as that.
El Estepario is an ABSOLUTE GENIUS, and in his immense modesty he encourages us that it is possible, but it is a lie.
Understand that for that genius it is normal, and what we see seems impossible to us, for him it is normal.
We are facing a phenomenon of nature, a Failure in the Matrix.
For me he is the best in the world.
But that is my modest opinion.
Id mostly agree and I think also that the phrase "there is no talent- only practice" comes from ppl who did not fully understand what talent ist.
Still I just wanted to add that while being a multiinstrumentalist myself, the own point of view changes dramatically over time with practice.
At start you feel like stuff is simply impossible, but after takin step after step, building muscles and neurons, stuff becomes kinda "reachable".
This does not invalidate your argument which I agree with but I just wanted to add this - especially to ppl who underestimate their own ability to improve- even with "medium" talent.
Please go check out owen davey play dreamtheater on EVERY instrument it's not right.
bro have you seen technical death metal?
Stunning drumming. Flawless, effortless, and he is really enjoying himself. Best drumming I have ever seen. Fabulous El Estepario.
YES, HES THE BEST, NEXT TO THE LATE, GREAT, NEIL PERT!!! MICHAEL...
I especially like this one because he seems to be enjoying playing it.
effortless? :) like 20+ years of hard work, and he is sweating!
@bernardjacques3860 I don't mean he isn't working hard for it, he is. He just makes it look effortless. He's an very efficient drummer.
I'm an early generation x guy, so I grew up in the '70s and '80s with all of the huge drum sets these drummers played on. So for me seeing this guy initially I was like okay this is a real small kit, but there's no way I can sit and just deny his talent, ability, and obvious devotion to perhaps what could be thousands of hours of practice. Nobody gets this good without practice.
He's the best drummer I'm aware of right now. Hardest thing to do is to hold a beat and come back on one, and he's throwing all of these complicated fills, as clean as I've ever seen, and coming back on one That's the hardest thing I've ever had to tackle.
If Neil Peart was alive, other than retiring because of his age and inability to keep up secondary to that age, he would probably retire because of talent like this.
The guy might as well be drinking a beer and smoking a cigarette. Oh wait! He does that while he plays.
Really. Neil Peart would retire. Dumbest statement ever
He sounds so good, not only the perfect clean technique, it sounds good on every way of listening and feeling ❤
I mean dude this is sick but have you seen his new video. Oh my God the techniques that he is using are like nothing I have ever seen anyone else do. This guys on a whole complete other level of drumming
His interpretations are getting better every day.
He is possessed by some being from another planet or something like that.
It's really hard to understand how someone can be so talented.
The man is superhuman. Only One other has such chops - his Infernal Majesty !
I like watching him. It’s amazing to see how he uses his feet and hands and when you watch his eyes he rarely pays much attention to where he’s going. He just knows exactly where everything is and feels the music. That’s how effortless it is when you give yourself to something and make it yours.
It’s almost like he plays using 100% peripheral vision. He doesn’t really look at the drums. It amazing. And the speed that he’s playing makes the sticks look like the old pencil rubber trick.
That part isn't unusual, even a beginner drummer will be able to hit every part of their kit with their eyes closed.
Best example I've ever seen not looking is Nick Mason playing "set the controls for the heart of the sun" live in Pompeii
He’s not only good as hell he brings drums to another level!!! Love it!!!
YES, MUSIC IS A GIFT!!! MICHAEL...
I've played for 19 years and I'm still blown out of seat with his perfect timing and precision, but his style is so unmatchable. Brilliant 👏 👏 bravo el friend 🧡
I absolutely love the 2:23 when he gives himself a little nod and grin 🫡
Everyone from my generation in Denmark remember when Safri Duo made that hell of a track. :)
He's definitely the best drummer that I've ever heard, his coordination is nuts.
This drummer's skills come not from concentration, but from a gift in its purest form, the likes of which I have never seen in over 35 years of making music.
I love the composure and absolute joy on his face. Makes me happy to watch and listen.
You don’t understand because you’re simply thinking about it too much. This is not to take away from obvious natural talent, but this is a man that’s just letting go and flowing with the music. He enters the flow so easily. That’s a true master musician. When you are able to just let it run thru you instead of thinking about it.
LMAO What can you say that we haven't already said the Groovefather is a master drummer all we can do is sit back and enjoy!!!
🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
those cymbals sound amazing!!! El estapario is a living legend! What an inspiration!! ❤❤❤
He's literally seeing the music. He gets a deep smile cause he likes what he sees.
You can see he has transcended to another state of reality.
I cannot wait to see your reaction video to his newest Blinding Lights cover. He takes it to a whole new level!
He has got to be the best out there, he is at a level that nobody else is at, I’ve been a drummer for 40 years now and this is just mind blowing
this is what you could call a natural gift...
He actually talks about that in one of his videos. He does not believe in natural talent. It is many hours of practice.
This is tens of thousands of hours of practice
I can't play faves with most of his videos, because even if I'm not a follower of some of the original bands' or musicians' work, I can still appreciate his impeccable craft and abilities and interpretations.
He has his youthful physicality as his main asset.
I think it's a kind of trance, hypnosis, in which nothing affects you except the music. Beautiful.❤
I think this is my favorite video of Estepario, the drums are absolutely flawless but they compliment and complete the song in a way that most of his other covers, while still absolutely mind-blowing, tend to fall in the "overplaying way too much over a simple beat" territory.
"How do you get this good?"
A valid question when you consider that no one could teach this to him!!
Mind blown!
It's called natural ability that cannot be taught.
There are human beings that come along who are simply astonishing. He is one of them. An inspiration on so many levels. What I would give for even one private lesson with him. When my girlfriend and I get our non profit set up for my fellow vets we want people like this to to come in and work with disabled vets
I think he trains at least 5h per day? There are some videos from him on the topic, also about talent ;)
What you see now is the result of hard work...
watching him play gives me back my will to live ... seriously
most of us drummers cant play like this even if we had a 4-5 arms. but still prefer through fire and flames cover. that was superb
What's even crazier that this song was originally played by two drummers
His spatial awareness, timing, and otherworldly fills are such a joy to watch. He is such a joy to watch. Amazing! Thanks Colby!
Music is a pure gift Mr. Colby, and here is living proof!!! Michael...
I think, whenever you say I don't understand, it's unanimously thought of... I've just come to the conclusion, just enjoy, if you pick up on bits and incorporate it, awesome, if not, just go with the flow and smile!! Absolute raw talent!!
Makes my arms ache just watching, the best in the world
I've watched pretty much everyone of his videos and watched them good. Couple of things come to my mind:
- See how he keeps his right stick between his middle and index finger during the hardest parts? Makes it easier for some moves.
- He IS the beat, the rhythm. He has way better sense of rhythm than the common man and he just is persistent on practice. IIRC he said that he's been practicing every day for the past 18 years.
- His basic setup remains the same throughout his videos. Ok, there are additions every now and then but the basics are there. Practice and muscle memory.
- For some odd reason I believe that he has practiced his limbs to work independently, in gym or otherwise. It surely is possible, practice and muscle memory again.
- He just has a huge amount of talent on top of everything.
All in all a humble and a great guy. And by far the best drummer in the world.
Whoa... Simply amazing dexterity, chops, and endurance. What a talent and what a creative way to incorporate bongos into a drum kit.
This was awesome to see him post it live!
One of my favorites is maniac, and of course take on me. They are all good!
Obviously the greatest drummer not just his technique but his groove and taste
Nothing can beat him ever.... SUPER AMAZING
lov the way he smiles he really enjoys his work and when he gets it wrong man he snaps lmao lov this guy hoooowoooollllllll
I had a big Ole smile on my face the whole time. Amazing
Me too 😊couldn't stop
This guy blows my mind. I am not a drummer or musician but this guy is my all time favorite drummer. 😎
You can tell he's having fun with this one...unfortunately i was not blessed with any kind of talent when it comes to the drums. My dad is a drummer, my brother is a drummer. So i most definitely can appreciate the difficulty & talent it takes to truly be a good drummer. This man is an absolute wizard & every video i see continues to blow my mind. He's just so fun to watch & sounds amazing! The power, control, and i swear he makes it look effortless....my jaw is on the floor by the end of each video. Mind blowing 🤯
Mr. Colby, this is by far the greatest song this man has ever performed!!! You should hear the original too sir??? Michael...
That man is definitely good on the drums.
I'm so thanking the drum gods for showing me you. Your sound is in my head always. I love the groove you get into.
My hands do it on a klong yaw
WTF did I just watch!!
Just scrolling through YT and found this genius.
I was truly mouth open watching him.
Wow!!!😮
I don't know how to describe how the sound he makes, makes me feel. Goose bumps that don't go away
Of the drummers I have seen, none are better. He is the Michael Jordan of drumming.
🐐🤘🏻
I was watching his old video and he said, it’s practice, practice and more practice. Unbelievable!
Best Bongo Song cover ever and takes this song to a spectacular level never before.
Song = 100%
Beat = 100%
Better than the Original = 100%
Sound Quality = 100%
With Love from Spain = 100%
Everything OK = 100%
Colby = 101% 🙃
so far, best drummer I've ever seen
Incredible,, this man has no weak points in what he's doing. What a great talent he has
You meet people like this from time to time...natural talent and a lot - a lot and a lot - of constant hard work. It's almost genetic.
Funny thing is that he has an old video from way back, when he uploaded in Spanish, where he explains that he doesn't believe in "natural born talent", rather he believes in total dedication and effort, and to prove it, he shows his evolution over six years (by that time, which if I remember correctly, was 6 years ago, so the older videos he shows are 12 years old now) from being a hobby player to being a professional one, and indeed, his technique was kinda sloppy up until he took it seriously and started practicing like 8 hours a day every day no matter what.
I personally think that some people have some predisposition to master some stuff easier than others, but if you dedicate and center your whole life to something, like at obsessive levels, you'll end up a master of it.
Buddy Up there Chillin with a big smile and a stogie playing thru a heart attack and just enjoying what he created.. ♥
É tão gratificante ver uma pessoa se propôr a fazer algo e ela faz além do esperado.
Parabéns !
He deserves all the recognition in the world for actually mastering and redefining the craft.
Colby you were almost speechless all video. 😂
What’s amazing is the finger control. He’s getting so much from his hands and wrists. Some drummers it’s all arms. I’m not a drummer but having been immersed in music as a concert goer and playing acoustic at church you notice things after a while. Efficiency of movement is key to doing so much. But then on top of that his execution is phenomenal.
You ask what we think is the best one, I think I’ve just seen it. Got rhythm the beat just way beyond awesome incredible. Every time I watch this guy he just blows my mind. I have never seen anyone play like either ever and I’ve been in the music business since I was 18 I’m now retired. nice one fella keep bringing these awesome videos to us. God bless. Stay safe❤❤
Когда-то давно я случайно увидел его видео и даже до конца не досмотрел. Ну знаете, как, типо таких видео, кто пытается исполнять известные композиции, очень много. Но далее я увидел ЭТО и после ШЕСТОГО просмотра подряд, пишу комментарий 😊 Очень крутой и очень талантливый человек, говорят "ТАЛАНТ ОТ БОГА" вот это про него.
LISTEN CLOSE, YOULL HEAR WHY MUSIC IS A PURE GIFT, MICHAEL...
It is a struggle to beat perfection. His technique is flawless, his sense of rhythm metronomic and beyond that he has great musical skill. Years of dedicated practice and an exuberant passion for his craft has elevated him to the level of the very best. There are few so blessed with innate talent as to have achieved mastery at such a high level without the proverbial 10,000 hours study/experience.
This guy is a freak of nature. AMAZING TALENT!
That a hell of a drummer! That just blow my mind!
Wow just blew me right of my chair! Outstanding does not come close!
Absolutley the best drummer in the world without any word
Absolutely incredible the speed is just unreal
what i found funny was that EL ESTEPARIO SIBERIANO said its not talent that got him here it was hard work and dedication and not talent lmao which he clearly has but it was the hard work and dedication that allowed his natural talent to do what hes doing and showing us
I've been watching him for some time. I think this is my favorite so far. Dude you are amazing. Thank you for sharing
This guy is absolutely amazing. Sick skills!!! Thank you!
I got goosebumps listening to that... AWESOME, Pure liquid molten heavy metal! 💯🤘
I'm 56 from England John Bonham always my favourite drummer you've just changed my mind awesome 😊😊
And on top of everything else......anyone notice how many times he changed his right hand grip on the stick??? Insane!
For my taste this drummer is an absolute talent!
Unreal! This is the best drummer I’ve ever seen!
How is that even possible? 😮
Absolutely brilliant
I've never seen anything like this dude,way faster and crisper than anyone no doubt!
the guy is amazing.he has no best video,all his videos are insanely perfect.Bang a Gong.
Wow this has just blown my mind amazing talent
I got so lost in the song I was expecting a standing ovation at the end!!!🦾🦾🦾🦾
Que El Lobo Estepario toque con tal maestría esta obra planeada para dos bateristas y lo haga ver sencillo tiene que dejar en claro, para los pocos que lo dudaban, que él es el depredador supremo
Es impresionante lo que este español hace en cada uno de sus videos... no es natural, no es normal
Pareciera que además de tener dos cerebros en la cabeza, tiene IA en cada una de sus extremidades
Y lo que más sorprende es que él toca de oído, es decir, no sabe leer las notas musicales
Este tipo es un virtuoso que aún no ha topado su potencial
Podría estar en cualquier banda de rock, hard rock, heavy metal, trash metal o incluso jazz y destacaría de manera impresionante
Coincido con Colby: hoy por hoy es el mejor baterista del mundo
El Estepario Siberiano is a perfect proof of what happens when hard practise is blended with a huge talent and a great "music intelligence". He is an intelligent guy, otherwise no one can be this good. I am also impressed about the sound of the drums.
That’s one of the coolest things I have ever seen on the drums
The best video he ever made was him praising Eloy Casagrande, and how humble he was when they met
Every time I watch this I hear more…
Watch his eyes through the whole experience…
This is fascinating…
He has 4 brains, one for each limb! It is crazy!
Through Fire and Flames ❤️🔥
I can not forget Estapario cover it is unreal! Even my 8 yr old son will sit and watch the whole thing
8 hours of practice a day for years is what produced this gorgeous talented man!!!
