    Their song O.D is his best performance

  • @VomitShovel
    @VomitShovel Před 3 lety +16

    This is one of the only "drum teacher" or "drummer" reacts where they actually get into tech details. This is honestly fucking spot on analysis, Clay is such a fun guy to watch.

    • @moviebad109
      @moviebad109 Před 2 lety

      Even just showing how to count it is why some people explain this tuff better.
      It helps you establish your own sense of rhythm with it. That detail alone sets this guys apart to me. Getting people into the gritty details of how a drummer like clay uses counting to structure his playing.

  • @ssaylor
    @ssaylor Před 3 lety +15

    This is great, pointing out the little stuff sprinkled into the track that gives it character. I love that Clay doesn't just repeat his fills back to back, all of his playing stays groovy AND interesting. Definitely keeps the whole thing engaging and you don't space out from a drummer getting lazy.

    • @moviebad109
      @moviebad109 Před 2 lety

      He’s a master of using space. So many drummers get bogged down in showing off chops that they forget that the spaces between fills and notes can be so well used.

      @MikeLevitsky  Před 3 lety +5

      Hey Eric, Thanks! I understand, it's just really hard to make drum lessons right now. I make these at my office at the church. My kids are still home all the time since schools are still shutdown in California. When they get back in school I will be back at making drum lessons. In the mean time, I am really enjoying making this type of content. I also finally added you channel to mine. Thanks for your continued support!

  • @ralphmunn1685
    @ralphmunn1685 Před 3 lety +2

    I LOVE Clay's playing, especially his use of space. And I really appreciate what YOU bring to the analysis, both on the drum/technical end and on the musical analysis end. More please!

    • @moviebad109

    A lot of people keep saying to do O.D. (which you say you'll do at the end), but I really feel his performance on Icronic (especially the one on Meinl's channel) really shows his ability in the best of ways.

  • @hankbardukis381
    @hankbardukis381 Před 2 lety

    22 yr guitar player(own amusement) but watching drummers lately inspired me to get a set of sticks and practice pad. Brain telling myself "oh yea dude rhythm is rhythm"...cut to me discovering guys like Clay here, Tomas Haake, Krimh, George Kolias... It's hard me to wrap my head around most of what they're doing and channels like yours help a ton dude. I am humbled by two tiny sticks...

  • @ronniestrickland825
    @ronniestrickland825 Před 3 lety +8

    If you liked this one, you should definitely check out his performance of their song "O.D." on the same Meinl channel. It's phenomenal.

  • @j-bird6563

    React to Chris turner please... dude is an animal. Changed the way I see a drummer. He is more like the lead for the band oceans ate Alaska. Escapist drum play through is insane

  • @Akrymir
    @Akrymir Před 3 lety +2

    Matt Garstka (drummer for Animals as Leaders) has a great collection of his playthroughs.

  • @dillondavis4996
    @dillondavis4996 Před 2 lety

    the guitar solo section in the middle/end with the noticably different tone is Mario and Erick of Chon, definitely a good band in a similar sort of space as Polyphia to check out!

  • @juanacuna9031
    @juanacuna9031 Před 3 lety +2

    Chris Turner is a must!
    Songs: "Escapist" by Oceans Ate Alaska
    He also has a solo project he just barely released, it's called "40 Roll"
    And you should also check out his cover of "I am Abomination" it's INSANE!

  • @johntearle
    @johntearle Před 3 lety

    Really enjoying your reaction videos. I would highly recommend Periphery. Astounding band, including fantastic drums that balance chops and control.
    I'm not a drummer so not sure which songs are best to recommend for that.
    "Reptile" is a master piece, well worth checking out.
    "The way the news goes" was my first track from them and there is a great video of Matt (the drummer) playing it at a drum festival.

  • @TheEmptyAutumn
    @TheEmptyAutumn Před rokem

    Just because there are two featured guitarists on this song, Mario Camarena and Erick Hansel of the band CHON, I suggest checking out playthroughs of their songs from their drummer, Nathan Camarena. He may not be as tight as Clay, but the style he brings to CHON is a little interesting. At least to me it's a nice **clash** between... uh... kinda hard to explain... I guess like Prog Soft Jazz with their guitars meets Prog Metal with the drums... maybe, kinda, sorta... either way, great listen. ^-^

      @DaveSteele07 Před 3 lety

      I've been to many churches around the south, and was always amazed at the talented musicians. I started out as a drummer in jr high, but caught the guitar bug in highschool. Mainly because I didn't have to lug drums around the neighborhood.

  • @funkflip
    @funkflip Před 3 lety

    I dont understand this "youtuber reacting to others youtubers youtube video". People do this which cant produce their own content. I liked your channel back then when you sat in front of a kit...

    • @MikeLevitsky
      @MikeLevitsky  Před 3 lety +6

      Hey Funflip, I hear what your are saying and I understand where you are coming from but here is where I am coming from. In 2020 I made 55 videos, of those 55 videos I got very few views, very few comments, very few subs, and very few likes. In 2021 I have made 4 reaction style videos and already have more views, likes, subs, and comments on those videos than all my videos in 2020 combined. I see that you have been subscribed to my channel for a long time, and I am very thankful for that. But I would encourage you to like, comment, and share the videos of channels you like so that youtube knows you like them, it is also encouraging for the person making the video, and helps them to know what kind of content to make.
      I agree with you that a lot of reaction videos are junk, just people watching other people's videos, but I would hope you see that I am trying to bring more than just me watching someone play drums. I am trying to give an approachable breakdown of what is going on as far as the drums are concerned. I hope to help people to better understand what a drummer is doing. I am also, like in all my videos, trying to get better at it, and trying to adjust to what people want to watch, what is helpful, and content I enjoy making.
      Finally, I will continue to make drum lesson videos, but in my current situation it is extremely difficult to get behind my drums to make new lessons. I am hopeful that as the virus dissipates and life gets back to some kind of normal, I will begin making lesson content again. Thanks again for your support, and thank you for sharing your opinion with me. I don't know what people think unless they leave a comment.
