Chad Smith is the most glorious man-child.
D Kerr No that's Will farrel.
Chads just imitating him.
next >
@@ezraperez4119 Chad is absolutely a better drummer than Will Ferrell is a comedian...
I have to say, there're a couple moments where you can't tell if whether is Chad Smith or Will Ferrell speaking
Al Hotshuffle the way you can tell the difference is Will Ferrell isn't funny
Dennis Rivenburg christ 😂
it sounds like a photographer is trying to get a shot of every word chad speaks in the background
"I play kinda hard"
- Chad Smith
A few seconds later-I play pretty hard.
Yes. Chad I'm sure that the ladies love your drumheads😆😆😆
Great playing chad
Even as a jazz drummer I still look up to you when I need to rock out
Keep up the great work!
He is also playing the Remo Quicklock Hi-Hat Clutch
"it lasts longer, you know, and the ladies love that." lol gotta love chad smith.
Chad: records a video talking about his drum heads
also Chad: *keeps blasting his hihat*
😂
i love clear emps, such a fat solid sound.
GamerDares wins Ikr. I have one on a snare drum, superb sound!
GamerDares wins If you've never tried vintage clear emperors, do it.
UltraPercussion If you can find some Emperors made with the smooth white film under the coating those are NICE. I believe Remo does this for certain drum shops at their request. All mine are from the same drum shop. The drum shop closed so I would have to hunt some people down to get some answers. There's a bit more midrange presence and low end. It's a similar sound to Vintage Emperors. It just a touch different. I guess the best way to experience it is listen to some demos of smooth white vs clear vs coated. I haven't seen the white film used in the past few batches I purchased but I think Remo should offer this as an option. The white film sounds EXCELLENT coated or uncoated.
Chad smith is the man! Such an influence in my drumming.
Michael Calendo He's not influenced my drumming at all.
he's just funny as fuck!
Yes! Thanks to this man I use Pearl, Sabian and Remo CS for many years =) And it makes me really happy =)
inspirator same here bro!!
Nice to meet you, bro!)
he actually plays dw now
inspirator like wise my friend like wise
Now you have to switch to DW and Paiste! 😂
"You know, whenever you play octobans, you feel like you're ripping off Stewart Copeland"
Well somebody had to say it ;P
Simon Phillips joined 😂
He sounded super drunk at 2:28
MaxBrilhart he’s drunk anyways, he’s fuckin chad smith
calling your drum kit "workplace" must be the greatest feeling on this planet
I think that's the first time I've seen him successfully pull off a stick trick
The Emperor X™ drumheads are the most durable Mylar® heads in the world. They’re made with two free-floating plies of 10-mil Mylar® film with a 5-mil reverse black dot
The Controlled Sound X is constructed of a single ply coated 12-mil film with a 5-mil reverse dot
I am watching this 7 years later thanks to the algorithm. Is this still the case or do you have something even better now?
Chad is the coolest guy I ever seen in the drum world and the funniest drummer
Is someone speed cubing in the background? 😂😂
I've got so much respect for this guy
Amazing drummer!
+GamerDares wins Fuck you
Andrew Hassell No thanks
+GamerDares wins They play completely different styles of music. You can't even compare the two...
This guy always manages to make me smile, even when i'm having a shitty day, I
"It gives you a bulls eye aim" -Hahahah!!!! He is too cool!
"...and the ladies love it!" HA! I was thinking the same thing. CS is the man!
Chad smith looks like the most chillest guy to hang with😂
I love Chad Smith ... guess you could say he is my personal hero since I started drumming 12 years ago.
i think he is one of the luckiest man on earth. he always is so positive and happy . really love his personallity he is such a hard worker and a great drummer
"I hit kinda hard.." That made me laugh a bit.
Chad always having a good fucking time.
ya and chad still has great dynamics. he can ghost really well when the time calls for it. love this guy and his attitude.
"the powerstrokes... FOOUR!" Fuck, he scared the shit out of me.
Very well said Will Ferrell
Remo all the way
man, this guy has got the groove! awesome playing.
wow watch his old "RED HOT RHYTHM METHOD" and then watch this. Mind blowing what time does to people...
No shit, people get old!?
Freaking love chad smith!! 'Throw it again! Wait not yet!!'
3:00 they last longer... and ladies love that
hahhahahaha
13x7 snare with remo CS head sounds like angels singing
Chad.... You are my favorite human being
It's all about that bass
Fuck off.
thumbs up for spinal tap reference!
man chad is hammered!
Awesome video... Thanks Chad.
Chad studied the names from the heads from his kit because normally, he doesn't care what they are, it just mathers what they sound like.
"one day I showed up and this was on there, and it sounds good" Chad Smith ladies and gentlemen. The funniest fucking drummer in existence.
chad is one with the funk.
I haven't watched a chad smith video so I haven't even seen the guy's face in ages. It's so strange to see him now as he's so much older than I remember. He even talks like an old man. His playing is still absolutely phenomenal though.
I love Chad Smith !! hes the man !
I have to admit that there was a time when I miss judged Chad Smith. I had thought that he was maybe just a decent mid level drummer who just happened to be in one of the biggest and most successful bands in the world. That was due to the fact that for the most part RHCP didn't require the need a for a lot of complex fills etc. etc. in their songs. Chad seemed to just be a steady no frills drummer who just played what was needed to make a good song. And there is absolutely nothing wrong with that at all. Ringo was perhaps one of the best drummers ever for just playing just what the song needs to be good, or in the case of Ringo and the Beatles GREAT songs. But after seeing him doing drum work away from RHCP I came to realize that he was actually waaaaaaaay above mid level and was next level. Plus I learned that he was just a regular nice guy much like his late great good friend and drumming great Taylor Hawkins.
what a cool guy
it's...it's...it's..FANTASTIC
I love Chas Smith, he is a good Pearl Ambassador for sure, Looks like the Pearl Crystal beat drum kit too
i love this man
@8:00 the perfect take
let's hear it for whoever threw the tiny black dot head into frame... perfect throw right there!
Why is this flagged? That just made my day lmao
I LOVE THE DESIGN OF THAT HOLY CHINA!! DAMN..
He's Chad Smith... Chad Smith, he doesn't need a reason!
and the ladies love that... the ladies who.. come.. to the show..
chad is a funny man lol
It's so strange watching Will Ferrell play drums.
I use clear controlled sound black dot on the snare sounds nice use evans on toms think i might swtich the snare to evans. Not sure
he is playing the Remo Quicklock Hi Hat Clutch.
I'd be in that group circlejerking if I could see Chad Smith Drum from that close. aha
omg now i see it! its awesome....thought, it would be a sculpture or something.
Watch other videos then, because this video is purely informatic, the drumming you get with this is pure extra!
Best heads ever!
Masters Acrylic kit. Pearl Vision kits are like entry level kits.
Does anybody else find it amusing that he is not using his own Chad Smith Signature Snare here?!!? hhmmm..... Love Pearl - fantastic drums and hardware!
smoothest guy in rock haha
Chad is not a druggy, hes just a heavy smoker.
He's so hilarious
3:02 some serious innuendo there. Lmfao!
Martin Shapiro Innuendo my nintendo..
extremely good sounding
you got remowned !
whats up with the sound at 2:20 i thought it was my ears for a second and almost freaked out
+daren1234valdez They audio is out of phase.
correction chad, chic evans invented the plastic drum head and remo bellini got the patent for the mylar film 1958 and the rest is history...
plugging heads and does mainly high hat grooves :) funny chad
and of course it makes hi-hats sound better
This guy is fucking hilarious.
it give you a bullys eye aim hahaha
Powerstroke 4: It's one louder!
CANNOT UNHEAR
Very Cool
2:59😂😂😂
My drum set set up is the same as Chad smiths
Led Zeppelin Bohnam style
Led Zeppelin gotta add that timpani drum son! Chad used one last year lined up next to his 2 floor toms when I saw them live. Bohnams set up was awesome but if I was using a timpani id rather have it set up next to my floors like Chad was doing. Flows better in my opinion and easier to play like a tom or a gong drum.
Listen to the sound he makes at 8.18! øøøhhhhhh
i want to see will ferrel play his cowbell again
5:31 WTF That was awesome!
the powerstroke FOUR!!!!!
Great! I just broke my snare drum head doing a drum cover. Great new choice for a head!
It`s your technique that sucks, not the drum heads. I`ve been using Remo Vintage Emperor on my snare for over 2 years now and its as good as new
+Paweł Morrison
You do realise the vintage emperor is pretty much the most durable head of all Remo heads right?? Maybe it was the head.
+Pawell Morrison
Actually the head served me well
Vijay Gairola THE most durable Remo drumhead is the Emperor X
OldSchoolAddict
Really? I thought it was vintage e. Mabye ur right.
Fucking Chad!....love this man
i think, after 4:47 he just didn't know anymore, what he just was talking about. i could imagie that he asked, what is it, what we are tlaking about? i dont even know it. btw: 3:39 - 3:45 sounds kind like dani california, doesn't it?
I love how much fun Chad obviously had while making this hot hot vid, and I posted it for everyone to see out on the FB playground. Thanks for the sweetness here, I really dig how ya do...Cynthia Landry
there is no right or wrong--it just depends on the sound ur going 4--if ur playing music that doesnt require a lot of loudness and hard hitting--the clear ambassadors would b fine on top
Pearl Sensitone Elite Steel Shell 14" x 6.5"
He's Chad Smith, that's why.
8:08 ... "Hell yeah"
Such a rich company, they just can't get a high quality recording mic? What a shame! BTW i like REMO
anyone know what snare he's using right now?
is that a acrylic vision kit?
I don't have the luxury of testing drum heads. I wish i could. What i do is change brands all the time until i find the one. Now i have the Evans G1 (not leveled at 360 yet). The center has gone uneven. I am going to buy either st, st dry or g14. I want a good ring and just the right fatness. Pretty much the way snare sound in the song "Mustang Sally".
With the band "The Commitments"
Yeah talk about Evans on a Remo video
Paweł Morrison Just talking about drumheads.
I came across your comment and I couldn’t help but to shoot you a reply! There are many factors that play into the sound a drummer wants to achieve from his or her kit, and it all starts with the material and size of your shells. After that is taken into consideration (Ply/Wood/Acrylic/etc.), you have the seating of a drum head on the shell, which can be affected by the bearing edge, flexibility of your hoops (Flanged/Die-Cast).
Just to throw this in there, the room in which you play in is also a huge factor of sound.
In my experience, I have stuck with maple shells (6 or 8 Ply - Snare, 6 Ply Rack Tom, 8 Ply Floor Tom, and 8 Ply Bass Drum). I use triple flanged hoops on each drum, as well as Remo heads.
I don’t know what kind of set up you have going for yourself but as far as your snare, I would recommend (only Remo recommendations here) a Coated Ambassador batter and a Clear Haze Snare size resonant. If you want an extra touch, try 16-strand snares like custom pros from PureSound.
This is the first time I have really done this but let me know fi you want any more input!
I hope this helps,
My favorite drum heads are free drumheads
