Holy shit this drum set has the most beautiful sound ever
If I had a set tuned this good at home, I'd probably never stop playing it.
12 hours of practice on the same piece of music every day gets results.
H
Nice, now no swearing
Austin Knight tf? It sounds awful.
3:33 that snare drum sounds unreal
its a concert snare so it sounds different has no tone like a drumset snare
@@kool4580 I think he’s saying it’s tuned really well
@@kool4580 doesn’t sound like a concert snare at all, sounds like a drum set snare
10:07 yes
I've never heard someone play drumset so clean omfg
CryHavocband he's the drumset player for Rhythm X, you would hope he plays clean lmao
look up alex rudinger
it's DCI, what'd you expect?
Ryan Cho hello ryan
CryHavocband Listen to more metal.
I died when he said tiny rick during the bumble boogie
Cole Avison “the bumble boogie”
holy shit i be scrolling thru the comments and see this comment and then he be like TINY RICK
I love that you said *bumble boogie*
Cole Avison HE WAS STROKING TINY RICK YO
omg “bumble boogie”
dayum those toms sound amazing
thanks! (im tom)
@@thecavalier6780 nice one! 😂👌🏻
lol
mini hoov dude the snare sounds like Jesus himself tuned it.
swearing is bad and no one should do it. Boo-hoo-hoo
10:25 to end is so fantastic wtf
The entire thing is fantastic
As a former front ensemble member from when dinosaurs roamed the earth I gotta give Zachary here the highest level praise. Its very difficult to pull off precision, groove, and feel like this when the rest of your section is 50 yards away a lot of the time. This is fantastic. The feel and pocket is great throughout. Well done and congrats on a perfect season from an SCV vet.
He section is 50 feet away? Its rights next to him. Drum set is a front ensemble instrument.
The Erratic Drummer He meant batterie
@@lameimpala8426 i know also, battery*
The Erratic Drummer It's batterie in this sense. It's not the things you put in electronics
Can we get 1000 subscribers with no videos? amas,Xalapa.
Metamorph is such a beautiful set. I have watched it as a whole and from many different POV's. I learn something new everytime I see it. amazing!
A Fischer same
A Fischer I play snare and watched the snare POV for like 2 month straight,feels like can't ever play as clean as them😂😂
Same here
@@ItsEdwardHere sane here, I tried learning it for like 2 months. I can but I'm nowhere near as clean
When he looks over his shoulder he's probably watching feet for timing. That's what my school's drum set player does
Wyatt K personally I’ve been playing drum set for my schools winter group and you are exactly right. Drum set helps the pit stay with the marchers and they have me look at feet as well
@sonew hol' up
i play drum set and yep that’s right. my feet have different rhythms than my hands, and normally keep the beat
Wyatt K why doesn’t he just watch the drum major?
George Smith sound delay. If you’re in pit you shouldn’t be looking at the major, you should be listening back. Unless of course, the pit initiates a phrase
Is the person who tuned those available for hire 😂
For sure !!
Yes
Water Water why did you feel the need to put your negative opinion out there? What were you planning to do with this comment?
ranch dressing idk i was just super salty
mr good behave bruh what did you put now I’m very interested
I just want to point out how flawless that stick mute was at 9:23 was. Small detail, but i just can't seem to do stick mutes without extra added noise! Zach is a talented person indeed.
7:24 this is my favorite part. You can tell he loves this part. Its just so clean.
TTIINNNNYYYY RIICCCKK
Sergeant Scrotum rick and morty is a terrible and overrated show
stanfoo fuck u
Paper Bag lol keep getting mad at the truth little baby
Hey man, it's all opinion. Mister scrotum can like a show if he wants. No need to be a cock about it lmao.
stanfoo if rick and morty was terrible, it wouldn't be popular lmao hush up kid
7:15 michael tran casually going off on the xylophone
How the hell do you even write for all of those cymbals...
Rabgaming150 you write for the type of cymbal, and then it's up to the set player to add flair
He doesn’t even use 3
Never swear. >:(
MountainaForcefield _ he used all 8 (9 if you count both hi hats) within the first 4 minutes and 14 seconds of the video
Noah Honeker it doesn’t seem like it
9:52 this part makes me have chills
DeltaMilitary 80 how?
ThunderAnt because I have an headphones on.
DeltaMilitary 80 I dontdont
Damn that snare part is clean AF
kit sounds amazing, especially the snare
anyone hear that cheeky “olay” after the stick clicks 1:58
Yes
Hard to miss
Thought he said Oh Dang. Both have same effect tho
No
Brown ok
10:36 is my fav part of this show musically and that was sick
i’m in colorguard btw so I have no idea what’s going on but it’s okay
Baritone player, this part is freaki g epic. Theres a kid at my school who learned that whole part and I wish he taught the rest of our trombone section
12:44 is my favorite part (joke)
@@hazda5791 if you were serious you wouldn't be breathing anymore
@@SaneTheBro lmao
2:34 Teas done!
Took me a second to figure out what you were referring to lol
Who ever tuned those is literally drum Jesus
i didn't know the drumset part was so hard! I assumed it was just for special effects!
Andre Perlman it's not hard at all
Its really difficult
Spoken exactly like someone who has no idea what drum corps even is.
DatK9 not every group has a drum set player in the front
BrandonPryorMusic Don't lie you probably can't even play a regular jazz beat.
3:47 "Tiny Rick"
I love the way the kit is set up totally makes perfect sense from a range motion aspect :) looks comfortable and ergonomic
Paul Fuller exce0t for the high hat
This is how like every set is set up. Mine included. I may not have all the cymbals and drums but that's how you set up a drumset properly
The middle section of metamorph is so good. Like the combination of marching and jazz really makes this part sound like heaven.
10:35 HOW DO THEY STAY TOGETHER SO WELL?!?!?!!?!?!?!??!??!?
Honestly I have no idea
It was in God's hands. Every time.
He turns around and looks at how fast the feet are so he can feel the tempo
Or at least thats what i think
@@guspage9276 you stupid haha
By listening to each other. They've played the piece millions of times.
3:04 there he dropped the 2nd tom’s mic
😂
That timing at 9:07 to 9:21 is so crispy and sharp! I love it!❤️
YOU ARE AMAZING SIR!!!!
Loving these head cams!
My mans rockin the flip flops lol
It’s incredible the skill of Drum Corpsmen, they learn all this music, in a matter of months. And it turns into something amazing and beautiful.
6:39 is the best part I. My opinion
Jakethedog 1213 facts
the amount of times i replayed 7:25 is not normal
The 20 seconds before it where you can see and hear the xylo player going crazy is also amazing
The little simple fill at 5:35 😫
The fill at 7:50... but that entire run from 6:40 is a thing of beauty!
Why the hell did they make you play those tiny damn bell things lmao
@Toaster Burns I would like it if you reduce your profanity.
Looks hella weird to play lol
Mr. Incredible chill
@@mr.incredible6276 frick
@@mr.incredible6276 Oh shut tf up dude
1:17 “we will we will rock u”
The flip flops too, this guy is awesome
Wow, I wish I had this kit...and the ability to shred it like this guy does!
Bro like your whole drum set sound so perfect
Lmao the way he bobbles his head around at 4:19
And the drop with the contras. Amazing
10:50 Something about the ride hits is so incredible to my ears
THIS IS THE COOLEST HEAD CAM EVER!!!!!!
i would be so happy if blue devils marched cymbals
Jackson Weathers ive never met anyone who enjoys playing marching cymbals
stanfoo my friend Olivia does
stanfoo my friend absolutely loved cynbals
Didn't SCV march cymbals one season?
They march them every season
"Tiny Riiick"
Thank you for this. I always play along with you playing and ive practiced it so many times that it sounds almost exactly like it. It has also made me a better player.
i love the way his snares are tuned 😍
Awesome vid man, great playing. Out of curiosity, how granular is the drum book? Is each fill specifically written out, or do you have any latitude with what you play? Are individual crashes and effect cymbals notated, or do you get some discretion as you play?
giveandcolor interested in this too
In high school, atleast for me, all fills where written out. I dont know about drum core, but i think its written for the most part.
I think it varies from group to group because in my high school group my instructor just tells me to improvise over most of the show as the only parts I get are fills, basic grooves, and some hits.
I think it depends on the level you're at and how well you play the set.
giveandcolor most of my parts were written out note for note, I took liberties with a lot of it, and other parts would get changed on the fly. Sometimes a written part would feel uncomfortable and I would just change it. I always made sure to stay true to what the arrangers/writers wanted in the first place, and then comfort and "fun stuff" came second
A lot of times the writing will take into consideration what the battery is doing, so a good player (like Zachary) will be able to keep that in mind if they have to modify anything - it's all about having a good sense of what fits, and that comes from experience.
wtf was that at 5:11 ? Ive never seen that thats pretty dope
Its a microphone
i meant the thing he does withh the cymbal and his fingers lmao
oh😂
I "snapped" the cymbal.
GASP
the man himself replied. Big fan man xD Also, thats interesting, im gonna have to try that out just for fun
oh my god that drumset is amazing
every drum is tuned to perfection
1:46 OOP YA DONE GOOFED
Caleb R Lol and he dropped it off the bass drum 😂
It sounded like the bass drum sound came from him dropping the stick on the bass, perfect timing
HE DONE AN OOPSIE
“FIVE-SECOND-RULE!”
Oof... love that
Great job duder!!! I miss the days!!! Im Now just a Dad watching his son play, in his first years of High school MB!! Hoping he goes the distance like i once did!!
This is fantastic. Such an amazing drummer
the rebound on the ride cymbal at the start is just satisfing
Is the person in front of you at 1:37 a wizard?
Shankabottomus 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
It’s religious stuff
Oop 😂😂
Anyone else notice the Rick and Morty joke?
Mark DeCesare if
if what?
Doesn't the mic pick that up?
tiny riiiiick!
David Teska no
Who else still watching 4 years later? :D
the small break at 6:35 just added something spooky to the whole show then you're greeted by some really soothing music
sounds like a star wars sound track. like always at 2:20
Spicy Food the song is called triumph of time
That's why it felt familiar. I've been wondering g why for months, thank you
Nobody:
People who know that honking won’t clear traffic but do it anyway: 4:02
Lol
Good one. Lol
Thank you Zach, very cool
I saw the other video of this and now I see a drum set view, this is incredible
It’s like I can picture the DUTS happening with the drumline since I’ve watched their parts so many times
your playing is so tight its unbelievable
Such an amazingly tight performance! Wow just wow! Fux,ing amazing
I saw a video of a member of the band, who plays percussion in the field. And looking closer I realized that this video is another angle of a video from another channel this is sensational
Thanks to CZcams recommendations I've gone from knowing nothing about marching band competitions on the other side of the planet, to... knowing almost nothing about marching band competitions on the other side of the planet, but I now think these Blue Devils are pretty awesome!
Genuinely makes me cringe as to how sub-standard my own high school band was, but... hey, we were just a tiny school in rural Australia. And at least I got to play with James Morrison that one time.
So this is 2 years late and I know I’m not gonna get a response, but I’ll ask anyway.
How hard was it to get into DCI? Like I know that there was auditions but how many people were you up against? How long did it take before you got the part?
Yochran front ensemble parts vary on difficulty based on parts but for anyone auditioning that is not a kit player I believe they audition on boards/keyboards while other battery types audition together just (based on from coaches from DCI) but really depends on how well you can feel the part as well as skill cause you gotta groove
It really does suck that front ensemble is so hard to get into. I march clarinet and I'd obviously have to learn a new instrument if I wanted to get into DCI. I used to just think I'd do pit but I have no chance competing against people who've played percussion for years longer than I have.
@@Gabe3N domt undervalue yourself, you never know what your capable of if you put your mind to it!
@@roguenetwork27 Thanks. Hopefully one day I'll be able to be a part of DCI.
super fun vid to watch. killer dynamics and use of space. wish i could be that good.
Awesome! Fun to watch
7:49 is the filthiest shit i ever heard, damn
TheeD ikr I was like “how the fuck he do that”
@@KingHeadass44 TKennedy and TheeD, never swear or else I will get very mad at you. >:(
@@mr.incredible6276 Ahh, scared the shit out of me I MEAN you scared me and ok
Mr. Incredible ok mr. worldwide
@@KingHeadass44 I said never swear
Everyone needs to know about Drum Corps International, these people deserve millions, not the NFL/NBA, my favorite is Santa Clara Vanguard
Lavernius Tucker They pay to play in DCI though.
Just take a bit from NFL/NBA to keep costs low, like in the hundreds
Why is your drum set up perfect and they stay together nicely no delay and your drums sound butifull ❤️❤️
This is some amazing drum set playing/writing.
3:08 HE’S WEARING SANDALS
Yess! Awesome!
I am not really familiar with DCI. But why are you looking most of the time in the field?
Benno1223 the front ensemble can't normally get tempo from the drum major, so I would listen to the drumline for tempo, and when I couldn't hear the drumline I had to turn around and watch their foot timing
Benno1223 what Zach said. I'm lead trumpet in my marching band, and since our theme this year is Motown, it's very dependent on me, center snare, and the drum kit / rhythm section. However, instead of depending on the drum major, we listen back to center snare.
SammyBanana oh shit what school do you go to
Thank you!
Diego Aviles 1243 Evanston Township High School. I'm a sophomore. We're doing a GoPro thing similar to this, so I'll try to remember to let you know when it gets rolling!
Man he has the best job!!!!, must b soooooo fun, all the cool responsibilities. Great job man👌
The definition of awesomeness
7:15 I love how energetic the whole percussion section was at this part.
ThatWasSexy
WoW
I was impressed with your performance.
sounds beautiful.
Zildjian cymbals and Evans heads. mAh man! 👍
I have seen the drum major's head cam and I am suprised the drummer doesn't look more at him.
Maybe it is to hear more the music and sync better but isn't that the job of the drum major?
And I get that light travels faster than sound. So that may be it! ;)
Dominic Paré your exactly right. The front enemble's most important job is to listen to the drum line. Not only is sound slower than light, but it also fluctuate causing tempos to speed up and slow down slightly as the band moves around. Very rarely can a front enemble look at the drum major and be in time.
I must watch more of those drum major cams because I find this really interesting and I want to understand more how he/she directs (what needs to be directed and when and why and how)!
Thanks for the insides/infos. ;)
Dominic Paré Not only that, but they practice to metronome so much, and this is such high level of play that the drum majors are primarily there to start and stop songs.
Sound isnt instant. If the pit went with the drum major, ther pit would be really early depending on field position,
Dominic Paré Pit never goes with drum majors lol
Omg so amazing i was jamming out the whole time
you, zach, my guy, are my idol. i wish i could have a shred of your talent!
I see that the blue devils made switch to Natal drums.
David Ortega OMG!!! Do you know what drumset he used? I really want to find those toms
4:52 clean asfff
Dayum that drum set sounds amazing...
Keep Rollin we will rock what song happens now
7:30 this part gave me chills
5 second rule boys
Winston Luo h
aspiring to play drum set in my future years of marching band this gives me a nice idea of what i need to work on/know what rhythms i would/could play. awesome work this sounds amazing!
Great tom sound! Also this looks so fun
Share this to the people that say percussion is easy
10:31 SHRED IT
My fav part 💯💯💯😭😭😭🧡
I always paid attention to trombones, and I'm so glad I found this part cuz it's just as good
Oh great, now I feel like I'll never be anything. Thanks, literally every percussionist in this video.
Very impressive and a cool set...
