Meinl Drum Festival - Alex Rudinger “The March“ (7Horns7Eyes) 

4 years l8r im still coming back to this video. The fills and the way they r phrased r just too good man.

Its astounding how underrated and I would even go so far as to say underappreciated musicians of this calibre are simply because of the genre of music they prefer to play.

You can immediately tell you got nolly to mix his meinl festival videos. Nolly’s mixes always sound better than everyone else in the world no joke. Meinl should hire nolly to do their mixing for their meinl festivals and meinl videos cause he makes the cymbals and drums sound so powerful and lively but also you hear every dynamic and detail. Listen to the other mixes of this meinl festival besides rudinger’s performance, it’s a HUGE difference in drum tone and cymbal quality. THAT SNARESEE AND TOMS

There is no one in the world who sounds like this guy.. it's so stunning!

Wow his kit sounds even better in a large room. He has a real ear for tone and resonance.

He always play with clean sound. He execute every strike very clear. There is no one like Alex. No other metal drummer can do like what he does.

Oh my god, Alex's hits are on another level...

The most amazing music that fits in with Alex's style of playing, It makes an epic combo.

Someone give the sound guy a big hug, sounds huge and punchy 👏 killer drummer as well, goes without saying🤩

After all these years, he still remains one of the best metal drummers imo. Such power and precision.

God bless the audio man.👌

There's no such thing as perfection... This is the closest thing

I knew from the very first snare hit this was a Nolly mix. God I love his mixing.

Sensational!! Great performance Alex.

Always impressed with Alex's drumming!

Maaaaan this is a heavy song wow

Don’t care for this style of music but I’ll watch Alex drum all day! Drums and cymbals sound amazing!

The most ambitious super incredible drummer of our time this is so sick Alex

Let me just see here... yep, still the sickest on earth.

Alex "THE BEAST" Rudinger ! Amazing, as always. But Meinl, please, we NEED a footcam for these videos! : )

So fun to watch, never gets old!

2:00 slammed the sticks into each other but still sounded tasty.

Alex is in a place where time and space doesn't matter anymore! This level of drumming is out of this world! ^^

I love his style on the kit. Powerful and precise.

So sick! Gonna have to check out this band now. Alex is a legend

Omg a new alex rudinger vid! Nice! Amazing playing!

Nothing but pure passion. It's inspiring, man! \m/

HELL YES! so clean man!

Inspired, now I want to make music like this, in fact, I'm in the process of learning everything I can, drums, synths and also guitar. No, I will never play exactly like Alex nor do I intend to. It's the dark synths combined with drum patterns like these and guitar riffs that get me all fired up. What a musician... only Alex can do this. Thanks for uploading MEINL!

Your drumming was tasteful and crisp as always but man the song as a whole was absolutely beautiful! Felt this one right in the chest! Raised hairs, goosebumps, and a tear all in one!

Incredibly inspiring!

Pure talent. Congratulations...

Alex and Nolly are a match made for each other! I've spent countless hours trying to get my snare and toms to sound like this.... not even close!

amazing sound and amazing drummer

He's actually the best drummer in the world.

Wow,absolut Perfekt 💥👍🤘

What a great song to play drums on and what a great drumsound and ofcourse drumming of Alex!!! Cheers, Jeroen Simons, Independent/ ex- EPICA.

Just when you think it doesn't get any better....sick\m/

Fuckin brutal man, i got this on repeat in my ears while i work keeps me motivated as fuuuck

That was A-W-E-S-O-M-E

IS THAT THE JOHNNY TEMPESTA SIG SNARE? SOUNDS PHENOMENAL! AS DOES THE WHOLE DRUM SOUND! WAY TO GO, MEINL, ALEX AND NOLLY ! : )

A very few places where the hits were lighter than I believe that he intended them to be but overall an AMAZING and HEARTFELT preformance.

techniques,speed,destroyer for me the best in the world right now!!!!

those tamas are killing me. ughhhh sound so o good

I love how he hits so hard, that the bottom cymbal of his stack got turned the other way :D

impressive like all the another videos

I can't even come up with a comment that successfully explains how much this just fucking blew my mind.

King over all king's !

He was the star of this year's festival for sure. Does anyone know the order for the 3 songs he performed?

I love how it looks like an earthquake whenever he hits the drums. He's a beast!

I wish this song was released on RU-vid. It is so fucking sick.

Yeah action !!!!

This mix sounds fucking glorious!!!

One man army.. Amazing!

Extreme precises and hard rythm transition

Does anyone know where i can listen to this song with the drums at normal volume? It seems that this video is the only place where this song is

what a god

GOAT

I'd really like to hear that through the P.A.

1:47 Groove and Fill of the century

I never knew Alex was the drummer for this band? Been a big fan of this band since they first came out.

Kick ass dude

It might be me,but if I sat there..I wouldn't be able to sit still for a second.!!

Noly is the beast , fvckin eargasm

I'm curious if he's going to be the drummer for them, and if they'll be releasing a new album soon.

Nolly!!!

Does anyone know what double bass pedal does he use? I can see that it is chain and not direct but I do not know the brand or model
