Worlds FIRST Double Pedal Vs. Modern Metal Drummer 

And how is there no one talking about getting a full cover for bleed from Chris!?

That improv over Bleed was insane!

I’ve never been more ready for anything in my life

You're really going for that Thomas Lang level of syncopation with the 4 pedals very impressive

Playing Bleed effortlessly lol. Awesome af. 🤘

MIght interest you to learn that the company still make this style of double pedals today; the drummer from Living Colour's a long-time user of their pedals, and even Roger Taylor played Sleishman kits from time to time.

You sir, are a MACHINE! Was so fun filming this and seeing you full on smack the haters round the taters with this 😂 keep doing your thing dude ⚡️⚡️⚡️

There's a level of craftsmanship where you just can't stop laughing, because it's fucking mind blowing. The feet hopping on the pedals is as funny as it is insane. Very impressive.

MATE this video format is class u gotta do more stuff like this, super fun watch man keep it up!

Bro you are legit an android, how...

This shows that technique > equipment. This was an amazing experiment!

This creative process with you and the boys is awesome to watch brother🤘 Engaging AF!

Really loved the commentary throughout this video. You make it easy to know what's going on and why you're doing what you're doing! Not to mention the playing is sick as ever!

Theres a 1960s Jazz drummer, who used this to play swung 8th notes, rolling in his grave right now after watching this.

More please! The creative process, the fails, the commentary, the playing. I could watch something like this all day. Made me very happy!

Another fantastic video, love how the final version sounds, killer stuff :)

3:40 is unreal. Just so impressive both technically and creatively.

Dude this wa actually so good please make more videos like this

Bro this is so sick!! Always pushing the boundaries 👏 👏 Thanks for this! And yes, please make this a song!

Love it man. Taking outdated equipment and still taking it and making a new sound is fun to watch. Always deserving of praise. Nice work.

Wow the old Sleishman twin pedal. They are still being made today by Don Sleishman and Dave Sleishman.

This was so sick dude PLEASE make more videos like this!

Neat video dude. Very cool to see an old pedal design put in some work like that. Also, killer drumming.

Need more of these vids soon man. Hella fun and entertaining!

Brooooo I've always thought that something like this should exist, with the two pedals symmetrical in design. Turns out it was the first double pedal ever designed :'D Legendary playing as always mate

This drum layout is so fun to play. I first saw it from Travis Orbin many many moons ago. He refers to it as a "quasi open-stance" setup which makes for some awesome open-handed/foot possibilities!

I LOVE the idea of the two hi-hats side by side! It kinda gives off triplet hi-hat vibes and I feel like it would be a perfect setup because you could really use the floor Tom to your advantage and really switch things up by using those hi hats in the same way as a double bass kit!

That is the sickest drum set up I've ever seen. I love how symmetrical it is.

No point standing on ceremony, already know I'm gonna love this lol. Let's give the algorithm some foreplay, yes?

I'm always in awe of your drumming, but I absolutely think Dan's guitar work on all your stuff is epic

PLEASE PLEASE more vids like this!! This was unbelievably entertaining

Love this sort of content. Also, that Bleed take was wild

I enjoyed the fail section. Being able to hear what the kit sounds like with essentially just a room mic was awesome. You're a beast.

Dude this is absolutely incredible! To do that on that old ass decrepit pedal is nuts! CANNOT WAIT to hear the full song. 10k, It’s a coming 🙌

I met Don sleishman numerous times, he is from my hometown and as a drummer, I loved sleishman drums and always used the 13” snare in the studio, that thing was loud. I NEVER KNEW SLEISHMAN INVENTED THE DOUBLE KICK.

Absolute fire on that kit!! 🔥🔥💥 Really fun review too! Great bit of history... Can't wait for more!!🤩

I better be seeing some of that pretty 3-1-1 action at 200 bpm on that beautiful machinerie 😂

What the hell is even that??? Can’t wait to see this

Finally a drumset for match grip symmetry I've seen one of these in my dreams

i love the centered look of the base drum

The fills were cool, in his take on Bleed but the fucking metric modulation gave me b o a n e r

I want the full song, even without 10K likes. Chunky riffs, kickass drums, thats all i wanted.

God this is so sick! I love your work Chris!!! Absolutely sick!!

I had the pleasure of playing this very same double pedal setup. the Band Living Colours drummer Wil Calhoun is well known for playing this double pedal setup. in fact when I played this double pedal it was on Wil Calhouns drum set at the time he asked me to play it for him so he could see how his drumset sounded in the audience seats. So much fun to play!!

Pre-liked this!

Dance dance revolution

Man I’ve been trying to blast beat for years now, I’ve been playing drums since I was kid and I’m an adult now and I can’t even do a basic blast. You’re so freaking good man, never stop ❤❤❤❤

Ya got my like, cuz I definitely would love to hear that idea turned into a full song! 🔥👍🏻

Does he know he's the best metal drummer in the world ever

Get an Offset pedal dude

Came from Nik Nocturnals channel after he showed you off and this is absolutely incredible

I've always loved this idea for a double-pedal kit. I played a Frankensteiner pedal back in the day, and loved having the snare dead center of the bass. It was a hand-made pedal kit and it took little getting used too, but loved being center of the kit instead of staring off to the left side.

This was inspiring! Thanks for putting in all the work it took to make it happen 👍

What a mental stuff mate. This is simply insane . Congratulations for your talent you really beat it.

What’s amazing is that they still make these and Living Colour’s drummer swears by them! Love the concept of having a right side hi-hat ever since I saw Thomas Lang do the same.

3:41 this is the exact type of beat I’m thinking of when I’m explaining why groove is the most important part of drumming. Wildly inventive bud i absolutely love it.

Never heard of you until RU-vid suggested you. Glad I checked it out! Amazing playing and such a cool piece of history! Subbed!

Great video Sir! 🤘🤘 Such a cool and hilarious vid!! 🤣🤣Thanks for the awesome history lesson!

Love it Chris. You and Jibs joking around is my favourite it reminds me to OAA Covert Live MV

Damn... loved the double hi-hat jam! Well keep on playing bro love your drum playing solo or with a group! . Be safe.

i was legit shocked to see you've got less than 50k subscribers and i'm only 3 minutes into the video. you deserve wayyy more subs man this is actually a really good high quality video

I really like the idea of having the snare in the middle of the kit, this is a brilliant design for sure, if you can play Bleed with them then these rock for sure.

This is awesome! Wild you got to play with that thing!!

This is so good you need to make more content like this 🔥🔥🔥🔥

So badass🤘🔥🖤 Dude, you never cease to amaze! I just saw Meshuggah Wednesday before thanksgiving & they played Bleed!! To see you play it on such a different kit was mind blowing🤯

Bro I had no idea you had a channel until tonight, so happy to stumble upon this! Great video, btw. Your playing is absolutely incredible & if there's ever been anyone I want to see run with dual-hats, it's you. Had a Yamaha cable hat to the right of my kick for years & it really facilitated beautiful & totally unorthodox fills - but I can't even imagine where you'd take it. I'm begging you to make it a permanent addition to your kit! You will come up with stuff that will blow your own mind. It's quite the secret weapon even for players on your level because it's so rarely done. Virgil Donati clinics in the 90's are the last prominent example I can even think of.

First found your band around 2011 and besides instantly falling in love with the music I noticed the drummer was an absolute god, one of the best I've ever heard. Fast forward to last year, I look up some old music and figure out that you're a drum celeb now. Fucking well deserved man.

I'm glad to know a world class drummer like Chris and I have the same reaction to messing up parts over and over 😂

Was brought here from the Nik Nocturnal Twitch stream, incredible drumming sir 🫡🤘Also, nice job on the new Termina album

Great vid, really enjoyed that! Missed an opportunity to play the intro to Hate Eternals 'I monarch' there. 😏

Dude you have to do more stuff like this in the future it’s so fun to watch you kick ass….you are a machine sir and one of the best drummers about today… Keep up the awesome work 👌

Central snare is great, you can put your ride and hats together and play open hand.. or develop whatever you like. Especially with a rack. Love your work Chris. Can't wait to see you perform in Australia!!! Your talent is unique and inspiring!

This was sick! And yeah i would like too hear full song!

Everything about this video is incredible 😮 sounds so good and I'm blown away by the end resulting patterns

That song at the end has the making of a modern metal banger classic. Please finish a full song out of that! shit went harder than most anything!

Awesome mate, very creative - liked, subbed, shared! ❤😅🥁🎸🎶

0:29 … AaAaaaAaaaaahhhhhh 😂 Absolute legend 🎉 Excited to see what is to come! 👀 Keep up the good work! ✌️

The fact that you can play this clean on such old technology is incredible. Kickin' ass, man!

WoW! Nice job!

That end song sounds so fucking good. You are an awesome drummer.

Love it man keep it up

I’ve always wondered about those pedals honestly. Only person I’ve ever seen use those is Will Calhoun, but those were chain drive versions not direct drive! Cool video!

Love this type of content !

That setup with the dual hi-hats gives me Travis Orbin vibes

Dude that was sick! i like this concept

No Way!! Fancy finding this. I used to have that exact pedal. I never knew it was the first one made though I knew it was definitely an early one. Mine was a random find in a second hand shop! It was an amazing piece of kit. Unfortunately I snapped one of the footplates & couldn't get a replacement so it went in the bin!....Pity! Nice drumming btw! xx

I’m lucky enough to know Don & David Sleishman, actually when I was 11 David was my first drum teacher for 5yrs & he actually brought his own Twin Pedal over my place, when I said I wanted to learn double kick, but it gets better, when I asked David can I get him & his dad build me a custom drum kit, I was like a kid in a candy store when I got to go to their factory & see how it was made, there was sooooo much awesome drum memorabilia including the double kick. Not only do they make incredible drums, they are absolutely incredible human beings too, both are top blokes through & through

Dude. You are awesome. Thanks for the video.

Liked even before the video starts as i know this is gonna be mental 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘

you gotta make that apart of your setup, permanently. nasty as f***.

Yoo ! Finally we didn't really move away from this first model and nothing never stop you Chris ! 🔥

Met Don Sleishman a handful of times. Would bump into him regularly (we lived in the same town and had similar connections) The man is an absolute legend. The double kick was made for jazz music.

This is too awesome and seems like the better way to make a double

Hell yeah!! Bare foot double bass is how i roll too!

Awesome to see pedals I've played and made for over 20 years come to light. Awesome video! Fingers crossed the 4th gen will go into production one day. I was involved in developing and making the 2nd 3rd and 4th generation of theses pedals. The newest modular cnc machined version will be insane. Newer models are faster with more control and power than this model. Anything anyone wants to know about the sleishman twin, im more than happy to share my 20 plus years experience.

this was the most entertaining video ive watched in a while.

I love this! make this youtube channel bigger you don't see things like this very often

Hi Chris! You're a monster! Probably the best double kick drummer ever and one of the best drummers overall. Watching what you are able to do with the bass drum and the hi-hats... I was thinking why not trying another bass drum with different pitch/voice... I'm sure that you will be able to come up with some crazy ideas/patterns between the two bass drums - mixing and alternating them... I don't know... You're definitely capable of making crazy stuff on the drums...

i remember saw ur old video doin heel toe long time ago, hope we can see it again soon

there it is, the sickest double blass/double hat groove ive ever seen and possibly my favorite video of all time....thank you Chris
