That drum sound tho, especially that snare... Dayum!!!

I would kill for an isolated drum track from Gaudiumni on the studio recording.

Tight drum heads and small cyms........most technical drumming on utube 😎

I'm also a drums & perc major and planning to audition for the Cirque. But gonna do a couple of cruise ship gigs first to get experience and reading chops together :D

Wau, that was amazing. What a great groove.

6:12 to 6:14 - amazing strokes

God those drums heads are tight... And unfortunately, hits on snare are disproportionately loud (or "how can constant rim-shots show sensitivity or lack thereof...). I'm sorry...

Fantastic drumming!! Great technique!

Impeccable as always, DJ!

i would advise all drummers to watch this and study every move.

EXCELENT...

hate to say it again, but this is inspiring . i'm fixing my drum set almost exact. can you tell me what inch is your remote snare? 10 or 12" thanx

I love 6:49 <3

do you have to buy your own drums? Or does cirque provide anything for you!?

Let me guess Drum Workshop (DW)

Great ! Very good musicality !!! I just love it...

Love the flick of the wrist on the snare!!!

Very good man !!!!

That one "dislike" is a shame...this is freaking killer!

So tasty and controlled!

I love the sound! Does anyone know what heads and hats he's using? Thanks :)

Yes, I was the drummer for Cirque du Soleil's first resident show in Asia, called 'ZAiA', in Macau, China.
