Gergo Borlai - 19/16 Jam (DRUMEO) 

Yep... My thoughts exactly...

Couldn't put it better myself...

jesus has got nothing to do with it :D

The DrumHouse I know. It´s a figure of speech.

It's a shame he went to Zildjian

Dream Theater - Home (outro)

19/16 is different from 19/8.

rito pls

Ahaha

20/17 makes no sense. No such thing as a 17th note

20/16 is 5/4.

You do know he's making a joke about a date, right?

i honestly feel stupid

+Jack Penders I'm a drummer so I've come to terms with my limited understanding. LOL.

RIght..

Overthinking can be a big problem

@@avakinlifeuser6888 I go both ways, really. I wouldn't stress one over the other for every groove and situation.

That's the curse of being a drummer u always try to figure out whats going on

I guess being able to play that groove by feeling means you're on a certain level. But knowing what you're doing brings you to the next.

It's not easy, it's greasy...

agree 100%!

different kinds of music for different people man.

Meshuggah, one of the pioneers of that genre, started out with that in order to groove as well as they could without the boundaries of traditional 4/4 time but then other bands took it and made it something it wasnt meant to be. I agree, i cant find many bands in the genre i like, but some of them nail it.

+John Bergeman Man you need to check out Admiral Angry - Buster, ASAP. Has exactly what you're looking for.

He comes from a very small European country. He needed to fight himself up there with his exceptional drumming technique. It's easy when you are American or English. That's already an advantage. I am glad to see that the nowadays technologies are casting the world into a big equal pile where doesn't really matter which country you are from the only matter is your talent. Decades ago you had no chance to show your skills to the whole world unless you were American or English. Gergo deserves his awards. He has worked so hard and I guess his best is yet to come. He is an extremist drummer and the world always needed extreme talents. That's what we call natural selection I believe. If He was a normal drummer nobody would interested. Well done Gergo

Check out Antonio Sanchez

Check out the stuff he has done with Gary Willis and Scott Kinsey...

I saw him with the Frank Gambale All Band and it was unbelievable.

Turned me onto Formula 602's and I've not looked back. Fabulous!

That Great Gretsch Sound!

The snare overtones are bothering me a bit

the snare has a nasty ring to it… Listen carefully at 1:00 into the video...

I thought the same thing too.

Good catch!!

Don't give up friend! If you could accidentally come up with 19/16, who knows what else you could come up with!!!

....what means he is FAST

And 4years later... ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-BBXBokooeuc.html 10:15

Dennis asked for Drum Lessons ;-)

Dennis called him over to shake his hand after his own showcase at the Zildjian gig

Ki vagyok ütve, kösz a napi kacajért :D

Remélem kezet ráztatok utána 😉

LOL :DDD

Dre Cor looking forward to your video demo of that! 😜

... to me it sounds a bit like a skipping vinyl. Of course the backing track does not help with that. Still impressive thou! And I am sure it is a lot of fun to play if you can handle it. I´d also love to see a drummer who has a more relaxed and maybe 'elegant' approach to odd time signatures.

Billy Cobham did it in 1973, this guy is a great player though

Exactly

Look up the MadRasana Unplugged Kanjira Quartet and the TM Krishna at Afghan Church videos. The quartet does something similar to what you're talking about, but it's 15.5 beats split up into a half-time 5 beat rhythm (so ten beats total), then a four beat single time rhythm, then a double time 3 beat rhythm (so 1.5 beats). The total turns into effectively a 15.5/16 or, more accurately, a 31/32 time signature. A 19/16 signature would likely be played as 6 in half time plus 3 in single time plus 8 in double time (12+3+4), or alternatively 10/6/3, or something even weirder, potentially - 14/5. That would give you rupak in half time (7 beat rhythm x 2), then jhaptaal in single time (5 beats). There are a million different ways to make it work. The Afghan Church video is even more complicated, and you can watch the video to understand it properly. And to make your brain explode even more, if you want, you can play something called a tihai, which is usually a section repeated three times to throw off the listener but one that actually fits within the confines of the underlying rhythm. And you can even layer tihais inside OTHER tihais. So coming back to the 19-beat rhythm: Let's say we want to end a piece with a 4 bar conclusion. That gives us 78 beats to work with. This is divisible by three. So now we have sections of 26 in which we can make a tihai. But to make things even crazier, we can layer a tihai INSIDE this 24 beat section itself and make it a tripalli (which is a single rhythmic line repeated three times at single speed, 1.5 times speed, and double speed). The way that works is you do an 10 beat rhythm with two silent beats at the end, which is 12 beats. When played back at 1.5 speed, it is 8 beats, and double speed is 6 beats (5 beats rhythm + 1 beat silence). 12+8+6 is 26. HOWEVER. You need the last beat of the very last double-time rhythm to land on the FIRST beat of the FIFTH (nonexistent) bar. Since there is one beat of silence at the end, you need to add two more full beats to the rhythm, which are put in between each of the sections of the tihai. So your structure now looks like this: [10+2\\6 2/3+4/3\\5+1] + 1 + [10+2\\6 2/3+4/3\\5+1] + 1 + [10+2\\6 2/3+4/3\\4] | 1. And the very LAST beat of the last rhythm is the FIRST beat of the next bar, which doesn't exist. It's very trippy, and I'm not sure I did the best job explaining it. And I've been playing tabla for 25 years. Lol. EDIT: 76, not 78. Dammit lol. But if the beat was 19.5/16 (or 39/32), it would work. My point is, nested rhythms are a big deal in Indian percussion.

lol

No!. But hold my Jack Daniels while I hold my glass. So you can feel me cup put some Liquor in it?. In reply 2 EvoSvex?...

Rick and Morty reruns...

he literally mentioned that it was a zappa song just before saying that vinnie played in it hehehe

This isn't even remotely djent...

And the troll is strong with this one

I could hear some Djent elements. it translates over to it

Andy Serrano it has elements that are also used in djent, not djent elements in particular

TYFLOL tomato tomAto, I think it's because of the odd time signature but I'm not saying it's djent.

+einarabelc5 I will. Fabulous groove! Thanks for the heads up

+einarabelc5 Thanks for the recommendation. I love his playing. No matter how crazy it gets he's still right in the pocket. Phenomenal

Agreed. Btw, Like your user name. Jez I am. Nice
