He's not just playing along with it. He is free-styling the whole song bro. Drumeo does this with a ton of folks.
Yes, he is free styling! He here’s no drum track! Amazing musician.
I don't think they've ever had anyone start playing 30 seconds into their first listen though. No pun intended!
@@leerobbo92one other did it, Jonathan "Sugarfoot" Moffett to Linkin Park's Numb
@@Hubcool367the one where they made Grayson do sleeptoken was amazing
@@christ7921 actually haven't watched this one, I'll get to it ! Does he also start playing along right through the very first listen?
Chad picked up the groove faster than you getting what's happening 🤣🤣🤣
Truth!!
OMG. hello,, McLie,, all the info is right there on screen in the intro bruh. what were u looking at?? maybe stop reacting for a second and trust the competence of video directors who know how to answer your questions before you ask them,, and he's not the only reactor ive seen do this and not get it because they can't shut up and stop explaining everything to us like we don't know when they're rambling on making a full ass of themselves for a half ass job of reacting with intelligence,, fake it till u make it right?,, well when do you make it? how do you know when to stop faking it? if that's your only tactic,, I dunno maybe its just meme, and maybe my standards are too highhigh at this point on the arc of the reaction timeline, but its starting to get very tedious and boooring now that the pool is filling up with floating heads,, more reactors just means more to get NEXTED,, gonna be like tinder, ha. silly humans.
@@normaleehi I think you need to calm down brother.
@@283AngelArch ha. naw im good mr lipton, thx,, we aint inside the actors studio anymore- this is realife on the streets of YT my bro,,
this reaction is for all the reactors. some things need to be said, cant help when the bubble bursts or whose face pops it. if we dont have some QC in our culture how can we see the BS??
consider the above comment a public service from one reactive human brain to all the others,, ratta tat tat tat comes the vultures of culture. straighten up or ur numbers will get tolchocked in the mulchers, o my dear brother 👁️
@@normaleehi yeah but this isn't QUALITY Control here... this is just you bitching cuz someone didn't react how YOU would have. It's not that serious bro... it's a video on CZcams of all things. It's not a dick, don't take it so hard. If you can't handle people not doing like YOU would do, maybe the Internet isn't the place for you. Just sayin.
I think you missed the biggest part. He didn't even fully listen to the song. He heard it drumless, and then just started playing without even taking time to listen or make notes for the song. He didn't play along with it, he winged the whole thing and got that masterpiece of a set. Truly a legend.
Seriously! Chad's a Chad (probably where the term came from? don't quote me on this hahaha)
most videos i've watched they either take notes or they do atleast 3 takes I dont think one has winged it without hearing the full track first
I'm not a drummer but seeing him come in after listening to a drumless track for 30 seconds blew my mind. That dude can drum.
When the chili peppers play live they do a LOT of jamming and improv so it's honestly kind of "in his blood" if you will
And then afterwards he just says "nah I don't need another pass, I nailed it" - I get that it was a joke, but it also wasn't!
I see what you did there....
....to Mars.
I thought the same! And if you watch other artists in their channel they usually listen to it through first and then give it a shot
He's not hearing the drums in his ears. They were playing a drumless track for him and he just free-styled that whole thing without hearing it. His level of musical anticipation is INSANE, but you can tell he can't hear the actual drums because there's a few times you can see he realizes the feel changed but adjusts in like a split second. It's absolutely nuts. The level of musicianship is mind-blowing.
And you can see his head stop bobbing and his eyes looking upwards as he's paying closer attention to what's being played before getting back in the groove.. especially when he's hearing the track with the drums and playing alongside it after his first/only pass at the song
I was almostb hopeless in music but had some talent on painting and graphics end even that artistic enviroment, it's hard to mimic some great artist and their style... In some of cases I though get close enough to fool even some professional artist with my works... On eguy who was a professional artist wanted to look my paintings up close and was abit baffeled when he realized I used the same technic and even the same style of marking my strokes and lines. But training to copy someone elses pieces, youeill began to realize their technic and then its gets to something quite natural to you... You do still have master in some degree what you are doing in order to pull that off. The best way usually is to give some time to reharse. but as soon as you get a grip on it, it changes to so much more easier... even the way of using brushes os pastell chalks or what ever. But the true geniuos are right on spot from the beginning.
3:42 “Chad is hearing a drumless track that sounds like this”
He doesn’t hear the drums. He just nailed the groove
He did come up with the groove out of pocket. Intuitive drummer.
Apparently he’s always been like this. According to Anthony Kiedis’ autobiography, he joined RHCP without knowing a single song and just locked in jamming with Flea and JF almost instantly.
most drummers before him on this show prep the song like 2 times before actually playing it, he just went for it like wtf hes a beast
Exactly!
Yah.. they do 1-2 trial passes, before getting the "correct" groove.. he got it right away after listening to it for 30 seconds.. 30 Seconds to Mars? More like 30 Seconds to Chad
@@stone5against1gottem
@@stone5against1 underrated comment
Chad was in instinct mode, found the flow and stayed with it
If you've watched and listened to RHCP live concerts, you know how much they love to improvise. They have an amazing feel for each other's play and musical intuition to know where the song is going.
He isn't listening to the drums...he is playing his version listening to the drumless version.
Drumeo literally explains this at beginning of video so no idea how Mr Honest Take was so lost ... but not only that, Chad was also playing along on the drum-less track without ever having heard the track before ... in the other Drumeo videos the drummers got to listen to the track the whole way through at least once before laying down their drums to the track.
@@rsmith9094 I think Chad was supposed to listen to the drumless track all the way through, maybe make notes, then give it a pass, but he just said 'I got this' 15 seconds in and fucking nailed it.
@@ToMPaSHKoV of course! he was obviously given the choice to do as you described, just like all the other drummers did, but he just plowed straight in (unlike all the other drummers), which was infinitely more difficult ... and aced it yea
@@ToMPaSHKoV just shows how much of a legend he is.
Larnell Lewis' was the first I saw from Drumeo, and it blew me away, but this one with Chad Smith is actually one that impressed me almost equally. It's pure musicality.
sooo good Lewis did a super jazzy song he never heard before and went off after the first listen.
@@Nastyn1nja808 Yes, that was just amazingly good!
@@thomashverring9484 Right!
Larnell heard the song with the drums (talking about Enter Sandman here, seeing how other comments mention another video of his), but he still did a fucking good job at it! but I'm finding the drumless thing they've been doing since much more entertaining cause you can see what the drummer's feel of the song is, rather than trying to replicate the original song
@@stone5against1 larnell did a jazz song without hearing the drum part
I love that by time you get to the final chorus he knows he's got it on lock and just beats the living shit out of that set. Amazing drummer.
He says in the end that it was "busy". I think it was a genius move to make a bit more "busy" - because that gives him more opportunities to make switches or extend a fill. He makes himself as dynamic as possible so that he can respond to what he hears. It's amazing.
He can't hear the drums - just the rest of the track. You're just watching someone who has spent his whole life jamming and can easily come up with shit on the spot.
I am not a drummer and know absolutely zero about drumming but always was drawn to the drums. Nothing more mesmerizing than watching someone just create magic on a kit, but you mentioned Larnell Lewis’s Enter Sandman rendition and let me just say that what impressed me the most was the “Active Listening” portion of the Drumeo set. Watching the “cogs” in his brain turning, then his hands and feet moving and bouncing as if he were writing the music on a sheet of paper. It was all just too beautiful to me. And this is coming from a layman. Someone who knows nothing about drumming so I can’t even imagine how powerful and moving watching all of this is to the drumming community. I am so grateful that I stumbled upon Drumeo and all these great drumming podcasts for all these incredible videos and content. And of course a f***** huge THANK YOU to the LEGENDARY Chad Smith for nailing The Kill and making that video Viral and introducing all the non drummers to Drumeo. 🙏🏻 And final thought….you shouldn’t have gave up drumming. It’s never too late to start again. ꨄ.
That is one of my favorite videos of all time, even as a total non musician but an enormous 30STM fan i can recognize the genius of what Chad did, his ability to adjust on the fly like that after only hearing the drumless track for a few seconds is mind boggling. Can't imagine how impressive it must be to someone with a trained ear such as yourself!
He uses drum fills to feel out the song to see where it’s going. Pretty awesome.
He’s not hearing the drums m8. He’s improvising the whole thing and he just is a complete master and nails it.
You need to go back and watch the whole interview they did with him and he mentions that sound engineers get onto him for ghost noting the bass. Says the sewing machine leg movement is just a thing of never being able to sit still. It’s a great interview.
Imagine anyone getting on creative for their personal idiosyncrasies. Let each person be who they are, y'all. The guy has been playing for years, you can deal with it. Would these people complain at Stewart Copeland for ghost noting? If they would then they need to come work on some electro stuff with drum machines, lol.
Love it, don't know anything about drumming but watching him just nail it is awesome. Chad Smith has a great charisma as well!
It's amazing when you see Chad Smith unleashing his inner child and having fun.
One of the many reasons why I like this channel is because you put into words the things that I feel musically and that I logically don't understand. Great reaction, have a nice week.
Pay attention. He is NOT playing over it. It’s a drumless track. It literally said that at the beginning.
Does it say that? Can you timestamp it?
@@TheHonestTake Just watch while he’s listening in the black and white part. Read the captions. They even play what he’s actually hearing. He was supposed to take notes and formulate a plan but as soon as he figured out it was in 3 he jumped in.
@@TheHonestTake @3:40
How are you the only reactor not to know what's going on? I mean like in the WORLD.
@@chrisferguson1911 Reading is very hard for some people, even if it's only a few simple words put together.
Chad's anticipation is insane. Alongside a single pedal and the 6002 he beats like a red headed stepchild.
Nice videos, Dude. I've last count about how many times I watched this drumeo video in specific. Keep the good work and cheers from Brazil 🇧🇷👊🏻
I've seen the Drumeo video about 10 times now, and I still get goose bumps every time I watch it.
yeah dude... he's playing this with ONLY the Lyrics and guitars... no drums in his ear! It's MIND BLOWING!!!
My guy took 3 business days to realize why this was impressive.
This is another level of musical intuition. Damn.
This just shows the Chad Smith disrespect that is out there. He has been a professional musician for over 30 years in one of the most ubiquitous rock bands, and people don't think he can keep up. Thanks for putting this out there so people can see these guys aren't just lucky.
Absolutely amazing! The Kill is the best offering in TStM catalog and within seconds Chad Smith takes it and makes it 100 times better!
To be fair, I'm 20 years younger than Chad Smith and I'm probably much more into the emo and post-hardcore genres than he is - I did not know this song. I'm aware of the band. I've heard a song or two, but I had never consciously heard this song prior to this drumeo video.
“That drummer” is Shannon Leto, Jared Leto’s older brother and he’s an animal on the drums. Primal instincts indeed, you should watch him play The Kill, it’s mind blowing.
Dude, he played that to a drumless track, not edited out
Bro I figured that out at the end, incredible!
Silly good!
as I'm sure you've realized by now, he's listening to a drumless track and just figuring out it was in 3 and then he listen to the vocals and guitar and other things to figure out the structure of the song. Absolutely amazing drummer.
I normally hate reaction videos. You were a vibe man. Good shit.
Thank you!!! I try to keep them to one take. Sometimes good sometimes maybe shit haha
I'm not a musician, but I loved seeing him get into the zone and absolutely felt his genius.
As a simple man. I just want someone to edit Chad's version playing along sides Shannon's drums
I’m betting Chad Smith is probably one of the drummers that Shannon Leto looked up to as RHCP were always on the radio in 99 and the early 2000’s.
I scrolled my history JUST to hear you say "fk u Chad" one more time. 😂 Also you pretty much predicted the outcome. Props for that.
Thanks bro!
he learned to play a 30 seconds from mars in less than 30 seconds. he is chad smith, the rest of us aren't
Dude he fucking nailed it!! Chads wheel house has no doors or ceilings bro.
At 3:25 it says we are listening to the full track with drums, then at 3:42 it says Chad is listening to a drumless track and it shows what he's hearing. So he was just playing the drums to the drumless song.
mind blown... I mean i knew he was good but this is amazing
and i alsow loved that you reacted to the cymbal hit he heard and corrected in less then a second :)
"No. I fucking nailed it!"
I love when you can see people feel the music
I took a couple lessons when I was younger and I want to pick up the sticks again so bad after watching him play 🔥
6:29 "It's how you play it's not what you know."
I love that because it applies to so many things in life.
It's not the tricks you can do (skating) but how you do them.
It's not what you wear (name brands) it's how you wear it.
It's not the Knowledge (Your degree) you have but how you use/apply it.
Creativity and passion is what makes art great.
Solid advice.
Thanks for reacting to the whole thing! He is definitely as great of a personality as he is a drummer!
when you look at the changes in his facial expression as he is hitting different parts of the kit its almost like he is having some kind of non verbal conversation with each individual part if that makes sense. anyway, truly impressive display by a real musician.
Chad made it better 😂 amazing feeling to watch master doing his job..woww
Fam I got to be honest, I love how you analyse it. Plus I love how you accept that people only stick around for "the important bit" and if that's it then go like you said haha
His improve was very close and entertaining aF! Great reaction. Chads a beast y0! 💯🔥
Love the clip of Jared Leto watching this and loving it. We can hear the drums on the track but he can't- and he nailed it.
Dude is a beast, I’m no musical genius and can’t play an instrument but it was impressive to watch.
I agree on teaching someone to play an instrument can be too rigid sometimes. My band teacher was very experimental and was big on doing whatever was most comfortable and produced the best sound
And as we can see here, it creates great sound
I don't think they downplay how good musicians they are. It's just that they don't care about showing off. They play only what's needed for the song, and sometimes that's very little. I often see people playing songs like Californication in a more complex way and it sounds worse than the original which is intentionally stripped down to it's basic components to sound precisely the way it does.
Great reaction. Love your insight. I saw a different reactor say the same thing about his ghost notes on the kick drum and how taboo that is. Im not a musician but its interested you both noticed that. It stood out to me as well but I never knew it was so frowned upon in "technical"/"professional" circles.
He's doing ghost beats on the bass And... if you listen to RHCPs he does that alot. Reason is he let's Flea fill in those beats with the bass that's why they have always compliment each other so well. And if you can tell he plays alot of his beats and his accent notes are aligned with what the singer is doing. Which is a simple but powerful way to really drive the lyrics and singing home.
That was AWESOME!
Dude, he came up with the grove out of pocket.
He’s playing along to a drumless version that most drummers listen to once or twice while making notes and then play along to it for the video… CS just went ahead and started playing
Vegeta in the back *cheff kiss* nice
😎
Dawg, the video tells you how this works lol
He hears the drumless track and plays to it, drumeo is honestly one of the coolest music channels on youtube. This is probably one of the least impressive videos theyve ever posted, thats how cool they are and thats how high the bar is. If you havent you really should check out more of their stuff they kill it.
Plus chili peppers jam/improv live all the time so playing on the fly and making reads on sections changing etc. Is something hes reeeeeeally good at/well practiced.
I know dude! I’m super dyslexic as you stated above. He’s great stylized drumming is my favorite!
Man at 11:14 when you give everyone permission to F-off.... that was cool man. I appreciate that. Imma keep watching :)
Absolute legend of the game this man!!!!
Can you please react to drummer of megadeth in drumeo playing mr.brightside
You missed the point. He is not hearing the drums. He made that up as he went, other guys on these drumeo-challenges listens to the full track, maybe multiple times, and then tries and replicate it.....chad just goes with it and HE F*CKIN NAILED! Absolute legend! Best guy who ever did that challenge, period!
I've seen other drummers come on here and listen to the full song without drums before adding their own drum to it the 2nd time around. Chad just listened to the first verse and a couple of bars of the chorus before jumping in with no hesitation. The accuracy was insane. He just has a natural feel for music, even if it's not the style he normally plays.
The Larnell comparison is off since he listened to the full instrumental including the drums before going at it with a drumless track, while Chad listened to a drumless track and played along simultaneously to his first listen.
Magnificent, spectacular!
His track did not have drums. He did that all on the fly. Genius!!
idk why but this brings tears to my eyes
If I wrote this I would feel both estatic and violated at the same time 😂
I have to agree with others. If you read the bottom of the start and paid attention, he wasn't hearing any drums. I'm a choreographer and you get thrown into things. All he heard was guitar and vocal. Not so hard to figure out but he went completely insane with this. It's one thing to count in threes, but also to guess where to come back in. Just amazing. The bridge is when he really slayed, I never saw that coming HAHAHA.:
He listens to The track without drums. He is incredible.
Chad is G.O.A.T 😊
Larnell is great BUT he got to listen to the track WITH the drumline, whereas Chad didn't. Of course still incredible to nail it after such a sort listen, but I imagine if Chad had listened to the track with the drumline he would have 99% nailed it.
Amazing…he nailed it!!
I love 50 seconds to mars!🚀🥰
He's hearing a drumless track. The captions show this before he starts.
I saw him and flea jam in front of me at namm years ago. It blew me away.
No he is not playing with it. Hes actually improving. Come on mannnn
He did come up with it.. he was listening to the drumless track.. read the captions
And as far as his foot pedal style, I do it too and have had drum teachers tell me the same. I tell them it works for me so...
Yall who are going after this guy for the part where he said "hes playing with the drums" obviously didnt listen all the way through because at 11:50 he finally realizes..watch the whole video before you complain lol
Biggest difference between Larnel (doing Enter Sandman) and Chad is that Larnel heard the song WITH the drum track.
he made his own set
i just want to see improvised versions now lol
Yeah, Zero drum track he hears. You misunderstood early in the video lol
Facts, I could have cut it out but it’s good to be roasted/humbled. Cheers!
@@TheHonestTake No roasting here, just a simple misunderstanding, we all human ;)
I think they were all shocked that he didnt even get through the first play through chad was like 30 seconds in started grooving and almost got it spot on 😮
Pay attention. It explains in the beginning that he’s not hearing the drums
Yes he came up with it on the spot. He was listening to a drum less track
Chad and the Peppers actually have toured on Lollapolooza a few times 30STM so I’m sure he has heard the song but he has NOT sat there and actually listened to it Im quite sure lol. It’s not his thing. BUT yes it’s honest to say I’m sure he has heard the song before!!!!
He was listening to drumless tracks. So what we hear is what he's playing
Whats impressive is not how close he is but how far.
if i hadnt Subbed at the beginning i would haved Subbed at the "Fuck off" lololol
lol
How many drummers here also actually ‘Learn’ new music on your steering wheel ? (and gear shifter if your ride has manual transmission)
*I used to keep the bottle cap from every Yoo-Hoo I drank in the glovebox of my ‘86 Jeep CJ7 cuz after beating the metal shift pattern emblem outta my shifter knob, I popped in a Yoo-Hoo bottle cap! 😄 They fit perfectly, but only lasted a week or two, so I kept plenty of spares on hand!!! 😉😎👍🏼🥁
Lol he wanted it over🤣🤣🤣drive it on out of here
