- Amazing beats from amazing drummer Dylan Elise with blow your mind signature stick tricks.
Dylan Elise's own channel: / dylanelise
More than half the money that is earned from this drum solo video has always been shared with Dylan. - Hudba
To get a crowd to start moving to the sound of a solitary drumkit simply by the beats and grooves you play makes you an outstanding drummer
tbf, there are hundreds, if not thousands, of videos of guys with a bucket and a pan...doing this exact thing and having the crowd go nutz ;)
Ummm... it's a drum solo. Just about every band concert has one. They put it in there because it ALWAYS gets the crowd going. Not some guy on the street without a shirt
@@drummnagain and they are great too. 🥁❤️
And they're all drunk
I gotta feelin Banana-Man lost his girl that night...lol
Only lol comment that made me laugh out loud
+tes420 what about flintstone girl !! lol
+tes420 I think Mr Flintstone did too. @ 2:05, he KNOWS she's flipped for him.
i just got out from the library and laugh out loud hahaha
+tes420 More like the flinstone-girl than the Oktoberfest-girl
Cave woman was liking more than just the drum work. Lol.
She had a total **** Me smile. 🤣 Yeyuuuuuuuuh. 😂
She was thinking YUM all the way
Oh yeah :-). She had other plans.
@Independent 1 solo drums-tick trick 😂
lol
As a drummer myself, I can't ignore how good this guy is. Fantastic talent - best of luck with it!
Facts
Ginger Baker, Buddy Rich and Gene Krupa are no longer with us sooo.
@Less Than Nothing... as a non drummer you're a part of the reason why people hate drummers who have weird god complexes
@Less Than Nothing... Can you share your video. I will check your skills.
Exactly the same story with me lol. This is just insane
Are you really telling me I missed the Flintstones convention...
Real talk lol guessing so
#STOP IT!
😂🤣😂🤣😂😎
Brody F hahaha nobody told you??
🤣🤣🤣
I dont know if this guy is the best, he's down-right wicked. His timing was on par during the whole video, and also the speed into which he put everything onto is nuts. The double bass was good, the speed of his sticks were amazing, and the speed at which he moved around is quite difficult to accomplish. I've been playing since I was six and am now almost 17. This guy is still much better than me and he put in the work to get to where he's at now. Hats off to you my man.
Same also played since i was 6
This is the most reasonable comment out of all of them on this video. Thanks for not being an asshole while giving an honest critique, and still giving props to this dude. The CZcams world needs more you for sure!
Now your 23 ? How’s your drumming now. I’ve been playing for 50 years & im nowhere near the skill of this guy. He’s really good 👍🏻👍🏻
Lmfao greates lololoololkk
Freaky. I'm listening to Matt Halpern and comparing... wow..
He's one of the best I've seen in a short clip, but even the others that I've seen won't claim that. Art is not a competition.
It's a gift.
that's because they are not the best. this dude IS the best
Man...that cowbell was freaking amazing.....great stuff!!!!
This guy is without a doubt one of the best shirtless, sidewalk drummers within three city blocks of that particular location- that I've ever seen!
😂
Haha
Fr, fr!!
Funny!
Nailed it 😂
0:37 those yells from the cop are killing meeee
LOL
+Luminoir Sounds like a fuckin' donkey lol.
+Luminoir the funniest thing is thats a real cop lolol
HAHAHAHAHA
IT ACTUALLY DOES LOL
😳You got to be kidding me. Oh-my-goodness. This was beyond fantastic. Wow!
That banana in the background had me laughing so hard
he's with a lovely chick as well
forsho
It's banana 1 from bananas in pajamas.
PHUC DAT BICH Fam be careful! He's in a striped suit.. He could be dangerous!
Best drummer or not, he's still better than most of us
Definitely outpacing majority of earths population lol
He is better than most drummers using only one hand.
Just wow. This might be some of the quickest most precise hands I've seen on a drummer. Purely amazing. I'm mind blown.
I didn't watch this video the first few times I saw it. Then I thought, ok, let's watch it, but get ready to hit the pause button. I must say that I am very glad I took the time to watch this video. There is no doubt that this young man's skills on the drums are truly remarkable. He definitely didn't learn those chops and rhythms and rudiments because he is dumb and uncoordinated. He has definitely put in some hard study and practice time to get to that skill level. On the flip side I will guarantee you there are other musicians in this world coming out of the wood work with skills equally good that would blow your mind. Such is the world of instrumental music.
Absolutely phenomenal Dylan. My daughter is 9 and she plays the drums. You are an inspiration to her 👏👏👏👏
Can't see how anyone could not love this.His skills and stick handling are amazing!!
I respect anyone willing to bust a cold solo out of nowhere at a party. Pretty solid brother.
To one drummer to another...This guy is F ing amazing!
I've been a drummer for over 30 yrs. This guy is good, but i know, personally, at least a dozen that are as good or better.
I've met him and he's gotta be one of the most dedicated people ever he's spent his whole life working hardout at drums
VS I second that :)
QuartzXCreater you can tell the dude is super dedicated he's great at drums
The way he handles the drum sticks is impressive to say the least.I for one enjoyed the video. Thanks
Even after over 10 years of watching this dude, he is still by far the best! Show me someone better? Please
Apparently you've never heard of Buddy Rich.
Ray Luzier is a better drummer in my opinion. Because I like him more.
@@oliverpalme2689 Ray sorta sounds more techy but he is forgetting the most important lesson in drumming groove, Dylan still shits all over him, my opinion only:)
Edu Ribeiro - Trio Corrente
Kiko Freitas
Danny Kerry
I'm almost 60 , I'm a drummer and have seen some great drummers in my time , but this guy is right up there believe me
I have seen and heard drummers for years; but this one is the best i have ever heard.
He's really good...but world's greatest? Let's avoid words like that...please.
Jerry Jazzbo he’s pretty darn good, but that’s it. Click bait titles piss me off.
He’s ok. Not good or darn good
Swift behave yourself hes good. Not the worldest greatest. But better than ok
Swift Nevison Bush Wrangler He’s extremely good not the best, but he is definitely a professional
hes top 50 in the world
Love the beat, awesome energy and rythem!!!...effortless command on the kit!!
Give the man his props. Those were some well controlled rolls and stick handling skills. Plus, ridiculous feet. Hands down!!
Could be one of the best soloists for sure. No doubt some serious chops, relatable grooves, and visual elements are going on. No wonder he's a crowd favorite. Good show!
If not for the unfortunate title, the comments would be a lot more positive! Come on, that was some pretty impressive stick work.
my thoughts exactly. it was click bait. we clicked. he was good lol.
And trad grip for a bit. He changed as i was typing bahaha
True
Nah people just need to know what a ' ? ' means
Yep. He's good. Unfortunate title
Great stick handling Never seen that before. Bravo !!!
Wow! Such an amazing drummer! Has the crowd in the palm of his hand!
I wonder if any single person in that crowd realises just how talented this guy is. They might think “oh yeah, he’s really good” but the insane amount of talent that goes into being a top notch drummer is far more than anybody realises. I’ve been a drummer myself for 23 years and I’m not even close to this good 🤷🏻♂️ Absolutely respect for Dylan 🙌🏻
Makes me proud to be a human...when I see stuff like this.
For years I've been coming back to this just for 2:46
same here! And I can't find another youtube video that goes into depth with that beat. I just ordered agogo bells to put on my kit and I will learn that beat. Not sure what he's doing with his left hand in that samba beat.
this is one of those videos you rewatch to imagine that it's you playing that.
Amazing Drummer. totally my style. He gave each each piece in his kit a slittle solo. Love doing that. Makes it fell like a whole band of drummers.
I doubt he titled this video though. "Worlds Greatest" is what spectators attach to any high level drummer they see play solo live. No drummer will claim they are the greatest. There is infinte styles and techniques to learn.
I bet he has his heros he looks up to as the Greatest.
Dylan Elise is one of mine. :)
Drum On!
Certainly not the world's greatest, but he has a LOT of awesome shit going on. I'm a new fan!
Agreed Conor!
You reach a certain level of advanced playing where the best of the best comes from uniqueness and originality wiyhin the advanced drum community
The kid has some mad skills but Neil Peart he is not! RIP Neil!
Man a lot of you people are just haters.. Just because this youtube channel "YouOriginal" says he is the best drummer in the world doesn't mean you have to agree with it and then proceed to talk down on this guy. Why does everyone always have to "One up" everyone else? Get over it. Give props to the kid or GTFO.
Bet your asses you wouldn't take your hateful comments outside this youtube page and not onto the very street he's performing at. Because you'd truly see not only how FOOLISH you are, but you'd probably be too embarrassed and dare say SCARED to say anything.
Even if this title didn't say "World's Greatest Drummer," you haters would be hatin on him anyways. Don't be mad that the only thing you can brag about is a bunch of likes on a youtube channel and probably haven't done anything remotely successful in your life.
Y4J why are you overreacting? they're just saying there is no "greatest drummer in the world" cause they're great in there own way. don't you think so? so the "haters" were just answering a question.
One of the best n most entertaining drum performance I've ever seen👍👍👍
GOD BLESS YOU..(watching here in KSA.)
As an ex drummer from the sixties I love to watch drummers of all abilities but this guy takes some beating
Really enjoyed this. He has great feel, and tasty fills. Great playing.
He said " Tasty Fills " 🤣🤣🤣
The drum solo is musical and captivates the audience. People are having a good time and being entertained. What more could you ask for? I wonder if any of those posting negative comments would be willing to travel back in time to that exact moment and try to steal the spot light.
As for me, I would be one in the crowd cheering.
I'll admit it in the beginning i was like oook bro, then at the end i was like daaaamn bro.
I’ve been playing for over 25 years thanks for the MOTIVATION 🤘🏻
Once again raw talent....nothing needed. Fast and accurate.
i remember watching this when i was 12, i was amazed, now i'm 22 and still amazed.
Dylan that was really
Great. You have mastered the drums.
492 people either very very jealous, or don't know jack about drumming. This guy is seriously good!! The best? Impossible statement to make. But incredible - yes.
This vid has had 2.5 million views, and not one of the people who viewed it could play like that. So the negative comments are just sour grapes from very pathetic jealous individuals. Just accept greatness when you see it. Enjoy.
Dennis Neo he certainly IS NOT the worlds greatest drummer by a looooooong way, he is a show off, drumming to people who wouldn’t know a good drummer if their lives depended on it
I've been playing drums for 60 years... I don't know many drummers with hands like that! Feet, too! I know it's all subjective, but the guy's at least in the conversation. People need to quit hatin'.
I’m surprised no band has picked this dude up yet! The man is incredible!!
He's the drummer for 'blood sweat & tears" He's been on the road with them for some years now.
He'd have to be able to play in-time. Okay doing random nonsense when you're solo.
@@whatilearnttoday5295 First of all, he's more than okay in this video. Second: he's in a band so he can obviously play in time. Number three: he's been playing drums since the age of 6 and appeared on TV at the age of 9!! And last but certainly not least, he won the Adult Category of the New Zealand Drum Wars Competition....AS A 13 YEAR OLD!! So yeah, he's more than just "okay doing random nonsense".
Your comment is not only ignorant, but down right idiotic considering you have all the information I just got from Google at your fingertips. Troll or just an asshole? I'd vote asshole.
one of my favorite videos of all time
Ultimate playing and outstanding no words to praise you
Magnífico......... Saudações do Brasil 🇧🇷...
God -given talent!!!..Superb!
Brother omg simply amazing, the ability, youve honed it so precisely. standing ovation here my friend.😳😳😳😳😳😃😃😃😃😃👍👍👍👍👍
Very very Good...talent sure hard work too..beautifully displayed...what sn inspiration to kids learning drums you can be.👍
Bananas in pajamas are coming down the stairs
Bananas in pyjamas are chasing teddy bears
I had to give him a thumbs-up because he has great control he's holding his sticks correctly, I'm not a drummer, but I'm a professional guitarist and I can appreciate what he's doing.
I agree
Moss Fett Why do you say he is holding the sticks correctly? There are at least 4 well known grips that are considered correct? He just happens to be using a traditional grip. I play both traditional and matched, it totally depends on the type of music you are playing and what is most comfortable. For a jazz influenced style like his, the grip is usually traditional; to that end, you are correct.
I'm a professional CZcamsr and I say you are wrong
I agree. He's very good especially the stick work, thats crazy. He' s very good at what he does.
Amazing Dylan,how many time ya heard that but it is man,love it.
Wow!!amazing..you are the man.. greeting from Malaysia.
this is pretty dope
world's greatest? nah
i don't mean this as hate tho, the guy is really fuckin good
Rōnin Narasu Bro. You watched one video of Dylan years ago, freestyle on the street. Do some research and come back. Dude's for real.
hey man, you didn't read my second comment. i'll say it again, i didn't mean it as hate, because the guy is really fuckin good. i just think greatest is too strong a word for.. most professions/things/people really. I wouldn't call musicians the greatest even if i respect them more than any other
wiggity08 There are drummers in death metal and prog metal bands that shit on this guy from far above
Alexandru Banica Give me a link please :-)
I wouldn't say the best drummer in the world . However I would say super talented , super precise , and likes to make a few stick tricks too ... very very entertaining . Definitely a thumbs up from me , and no need for haters here , he is very very very good :) Peace all :)
Up there with the best .... wow ! Made it look effortless.
I don’t even know what to say!!.....Amazing is an understatement. Inspirational for sure. With those chops I’m sure that guy plays for a band.
Last I heard he was the touring drummer for Earth, Wind, and Fire.
I wish somebody had a scouter to read his power level.
*_IT"S OVER 9000!!!!!!_*
Not quite my tempo...
Just kidding! that's AWESOME!
TheWhiteWolf LOLOLL fletcherrrr
Nice quote.👍🏼
This put a huge smile on our faces, even the Banana in pyjamas had a huge smile on his face. A very talented guy. Thank you for bringing happiness 👍
The guys good alot of Finesse great stick work and very quick, great show man
bananas in pyjamas tho
What's up wi all the people bashing this guy? Come on, you see one demo then claim that he isn't good because he can only do this? Have you actually seen him play the drums properly? I know I have, I went to school with him, I had the same drum teacher as him. Don't bash the drummer because of the video title. The title doesn't even claim that he is the best. That is why there is a question mark next to it!
Jacob Suckling So true, This is how the video was named. I watched this video before I met Dylan czcams.com/video/bHDjGtj18X0/video.html When I watched this I found myself standing cheering and clapping in front of my computer and said to my self "that guy is the world's greatest drummer." I then searched to find out what he has been up to more videos or anything. I couldn't find much just Dylan touring schools, at that moment I decided to create a CZcams channel find people like Dylan Elise and promote them to the world. Then some magic happened I am not sure when two weeks or a month later I decided to go to the sevens rugby after party to maybe film some buskers and put them on the channel. I Walked down the street armed with a new camera and Dylan was busking. I was star struck at first and just said "are you that drummer on CZcams Dylan?" he replied "yes" I nervously asked if I could film him and the rest you can see.
When I got home I studied how videos get seen on CZcams and found a key word tool and the most searched keywords were "world's best drummer" "best drummer" I thought, well I thought he was when I watched his other video so put a question mark and ask the question. Now I ask myself did it work? then I look at this webpage www.bloodsweatandtears.com/ This is what Bobby Colomby says
Colomby also describes the instrumental players chosen for the Blood, Sweat & Tears in glowing terms. “The band, man for man, pound for pound, is better than the original B, S & T.,” he says. “Without a doubt. They’re a ridiculously talented bunch, The drummer Dylan Elsie who I found on CZcams is better than I am, or was.”
I am sure if Dylan wanted the title changed he would message me. No money was the driver behind this channel just a passion for music. Later on CZcams contacted me and offered a partnership and asked if I would like to earn an income. To date we have paid thousands of dollars to Dylan and will continue to do so. YouOriginal has also given new instruments and amps to buskers on the streets this video came from.
Sorry for the newb editing but I did not have a clue :) - the camera man
Wot school , how old which country so on, show evidence.
Kelson School in Wellington, New Zealand
enough evidence for you?
+Jacob Suckling I was with Dylan last week here in SYDNEY before he started the Australian Tour with Blood Sweat & Tears. After leaving NZ and drumming for Sons of Zion...good to see him chasing his dreams in the US.
Yeah, makes me wonder what I could have become of I continued drumming like he did
So strong !! Thank you guys
What the, OMG!!! PURELY MAGNIFICENT!
Ok ok people getting too focused on the worlds greatest thing I don’t think realise how much natural talent it takes to drum as fast and hard as that for as long as that, I’ve been drumming 20 year and couldn’t get close to this guy
Maybe you are not a natural born drummer 😂
2:07 Everybody's first garageband track
Incredibly accurate
So much indurance. Good work
You are kicking it! Great job!
Did I watched flintstones?
Swi Leee yes you did watched flintstones
I should did be watching da Flintstones.
That was pretty sick though! He is a great drummer!
Damn dude, that's some amazing playing!
Absolute great. Thank you. I love it
Great. Now the only thing he needs is an adult drum set.
UHMM would u carry around a shit load of drum peices? Even by car thats hassel as
It is funny seeing him play fills that sound like they come from a metal song on a baby kit though
It's not a baby kit
It's just smaller numbers
"Jazz" numbers ... noideadickhead
Soleyiu S lollllllllllll
Great sounds can come from small drums, as evidenced here. I like the lighter sound of this smaller kit. And with smaller drums comes more of an economy of motion, so there's another benefit. And could you imagine lugging a full-sized kit around to do gigs like this?
Clearly comes from a marching band background.
From the Brazilian carnivals
Latin jazz.. not marching band..lol
No marching bands in new zealand brah🤣
You assume because of match grip? Lol
@@Kosmo999 he used both grips anyways
No doubt, very impressive and talented young man.
Wow wow wow absolutely unbelievable fantastic amazing I love this guy xx
Speechless performance
It was a drum solo, why would he also be giving a speech?
Greatest? Who can say? There are some spots with very minor timing problems, but that's like pointing out some small pieces of lint on a very fine suit.
He's better than me, which means hes pretty good...
Keith Katrowski Are you a "drummer's benchmark" or what?
?
Buddy Rich.!!!!
Not really. Lint on a suit can be easily removed. Timing with drumming is an integral part. It would be like pointing out some minor flaws in the stitching of a fine suit.
Absolutely great technique!
Nothing short of amazing! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Comparisons apart, this guy is amazing
Chick in leopard suit is ready to mate.
Dude in tiger suit is ready to submit.
The swedish chick with the blue dress can feed the offspring🤗
They'd make beautiful babies, for sure.
That was good...real good. Keep up the great work.
He is the most entertaining drummer i have ever seen. There is no such thing as the best drummer. it's art. it's subjective. it can't be measured.
That was great how he lost his grip at 1:55 and got back on his timing.
Gene Krupa and Buddy Rich wipe the floor with this guy
And Neil Peart...
And tony Williams and elvin Jones wipe the floor with those two
And Danny Carey,Jaki Liebezeit
Danny Carey and Tony Royster Jr
Robert Haizlip this kid has better groove and a deeper pocket than those jazzers.
FANTASTIC DRUMMER 👏👏👍👍👍🥁🎶🥁🎶🥁🎶
Thank you
He doesn't need a setup that looks like a spaceship. He's just good.
Greetings from the Čech Republic 🇨🇿 and stay healthy 😷.
3:09 The girl in the back right be like.... "Mmm I want some of that!" .... Looks over, and her man is B2!" 🤦♂️ 😂 😂
NEEDS MORE COWBELLS !!!!!
The fact that I know what you're referring to worries me.
boisdesormes mooo?
aperfecte he has three isnt that like the most u need?
he's referring to the saturday night live skit featuring will ferrell and christopher walken.."I gotta have more cowbell!!!!"
you ruined the joke by having to explain it
Brilliant. Well done😮
