Zach Hill practicing February 2011 

SHIT LMAO

Lmaoooooo

This is what the study girl studies

Shut the fuck up

Put some microtonal keys to it and then you get the best thing in music ever

Underrated joke, XD

this made me laugh louder than I thought was possible

LOL

Holy shit bro I’m wheezing thank you

Roflmao No daré like para no arruinar ese hermoso 666

Inside one giant kick

while simultaneously keeping a perfect 5/4 polyrhythm

No, you're comment is for real. "Can you fill for 4 minutes?" Hold my beer.... FOREVER!!!

Oh you like drums? Name every drum fill ever

This would be a pretty awesome reggae intro

KEN WINS he bought them himself haha

@@navmanshack1579 so bless him

I bet the neighbors "Curse whoever got this guy his first drums and sticks"

Pretty sure I read in an interview Zach's dad got him his first kit at 16 for Christmas. Fun fact Zach's dad makes it to every single show he can

@@jtyler0 aw thats nice. his hearing doesnt work anymore does it

oh hey nfkrz

Oh heeeey…it’s your friendly neighbourhood Russian! 👋

Zach hill: imma beat you son.

wait Zach what are you doing with those sticks

i sure hope nothing wacky or uncharacteristic happens

His victims lol.

environmental storytelling

@@Madhijz Lol

He went too hard giggity

Lmao

Get going at it

What? Theres nothing technical or amazing about what hes doing here

@@TOGGGAA1 ??? his endurance is incredible

@@cerulean5881 yes hes very good at making just noise

@@TOGGGAA1 The endurance at that speed I'd consider amazing, even if you practice single and double stroke roll, and alternate left right and throw in a double kick it'd still take a few months, grinding at it for someone new, and likely not working on anything else. Seeing as the vast majority of people in the world can't even do the basic beat at 120 BPM, even less can do this for this amount of time.

Saaaaame

@aMoral27 truly a god amongst mortal bongo beaters

Lmaooo

Fr haha

you've clearly never seen "guy from death grips loves his job"

This and 1:59 are the best parts

It's sounds like the immigrant song beat just the triplets being played on the mounted tom

@@Picklepucker60000if you watch his leg, the triplets are mostly coming from his kick drum playing doubles and the mounted tom playing singles. just goes to show how insanely fast he is

Fuck man you got anything else? I really like this analysis.

I really like his drumming an all, But for the most part the fast stuff is conceptually simple. Its fast linear style drumming, sharing rudiments between hand foot combinations. Theres a central focus that hes peppering the different drums over. I really like his drumming. Its all feel. I sorta get what you mean, its proper solid to do like drum line stuff or complex jazz, but pro drummers get this I think. They just choose to play different. Like it's really intense but theres more "notes per second " or however you wanna judge complexity, in having four parts spread between the hands and feet playing complimentary parts.

@@pleasetellmethatyouloveme6922 Seen them all, I still think there is still more info about what Zach is doing that can be extrapolated. JA is great though.

@@pleasetellmethatyouloveme6922 thanks, the dude is a fascinating artist, he is a master of syncopation, to the point it sounds like he's playing polyrhythms. his interview with modern drummer is the best resource to understand his philosophy.

yea, its nowhere near this complex.

Zach hill is a technique

Jack Burton ikr

He is in a math rock band, Hella. Imagine how much he’s had to practice for that

@@kaylons he's in a lot more than that

It’s absolutely god like but I wouldn’t call this in the pocket at all

@@Fleetato you have to understand this man's prolific discography, and then you'll understand that this man knows exactly every single thing he's doing and he has decided what the pockets are and where they are located and just how deep they can be. Is it a person who self-taught from 15 and is now nearly 40 this video was made nearly 10 years ago. You talking about a person who has spent more than 8 hours a day almost every day practicing drums from the time they were 15 this person can go slow they can go fast they can go in between and they can time jump around as much as they want fuck I swear to God he can jump through dimensions. You may as well consider him the quantum leaper of Los Angeles

camera guy = andy morin aka "guy from death grips"

@@avantchop i heard he loves his job

Peep I heard they get to play loud

alex what are you doing here 😳 i had no idea you were into death grips

Oh hey it’s the analog horror guy! :D

Oh my god ahaahahahahahh

Why would you throw that out…

@@mcadminbro2139 hahahahaah

with it being zach hill youre lucky it wasnt also soaked in blood

Do u remember anything else from that gig? Couldn't find anything bout it when I searched for it so it must be super rare

lol

that would be legendary

@@tylerdaniels723 Yes it would

Holy fuck that thought has never crossed my mind now I need that

One of his more recent tracks 1st 44 easily sounded like a B Side from government plates or something, their sounds would work well together I think, but DG just don't seem to collab. Why is that?

@@riccardominicozzi8717 i mean they did work with les claypool on more than the fairy and others like lucas abella on bottomless pit

。 same

Hey, they’re both two of my favorite drummers.

They are both cool , as is Jimmy Chamberlain, Stephen Morris, Dave groul and Keith Moon .

Tre Cool is still a fucking awesome drummer.

He got pocket

Hope it gave consent

She Grips the shaft

comedic genius never before seen

honestly it's not SUPER complicated, especially compared to the other stuff, it's just alternate strokes on the hihat coupled with the kick. kicks fuckin ass tho

I think hes reacting to how the snare comes in when he cracks it that loud, cutting through that loop into the next part of that beat.

my whole life my whole fucking life MY WHOLE LIFE MY WHOLE FUCKING LIFE

@@abhiklovesbadbitchesyour whole life, your whole fucking life. Your whole life your whole fucking life

Naw he's smiling because he messed up; tried to hit the crash at 3:38 but his upstroke got in the way

He's not playing as hard as he can. He is just warming up.

He didn’t bleed while drumming so he’s going easy mode here

если её не поставят власти я туда приеду, несмотря ни на что, и организую все. хотя думаю желающие и без меня найдутся, но я выражаю свое согласие твоей идее...

Thank you. I know he uses Paiste Cymbals & Tama Drums but wasn’t sure which kind of cymbals by Paiste he was using. This kit looks like it’s made by Pearl or is Pearl knock-off.

Looooool

@Ross Orange really?

Is It true? Running a soccer field many times is exausting. Im a drummer. There great fat drummers by the way, Eric moore, Aaron Spears, gene hoglan. But there is no fato soccer player.

hi have you heard about cocaine!!!!???

Hugo Rezende drummers dont need to be on a strict diet unlike soccer players who are forced to calculate how many calories they take in to not gain weight

@@hugorezende199 perhaps I misreported, but drummers have incredible endurance and stamina compared to any other musician. They I shouldn't say they beat an average soccer player, but they have a capability of being to their level. www.google.com/amp/s/amp.belfasttelegraph.co.uk/news/drummers-beat-footballers-in-fitness-levels-28444329.html

Steve French there are no rules of sound

@@Creaturefiendyo Yes, yes there is.

Math-Rockesque.

He is in a math rock band after all

Can you post on the subreddit that the video for 'spread eagle cross the block' is gone please?

This man makes me wanna quit drums

do it :))))))))))))))))))))))))

Supposedly he just rocks his ankle really fucking quick, pretty sure it took him awhile to get to that point

Nah just do drugs

I'll let you know right now, the technique is not as hard as it would seem. I'm only on my third month of drumming, and I have 100% figured out how it works. You just need to activate your calf muscles, I would look into 6-minute calf exercises. Start working out your calves, because again I'm on my third month and I'm already starting to double bass with one pedal. You have to hold your leg upto where the beater isn't digging into the head, but it's like halfway there. Then you need the beater to be further back than normal, and the spring to be as loose as possible. Next start doing calf exercises. when you start activating your caps you can literally pulsate them when you hold your legs in this position. but just understanding the technique of how it works does not give you the years of time and consistent practice required it to get to the level of double and triple basing that Zack can achieve. I'd say it would take quite some time before anyone can reach that, but the actual comprehension of it is not that crazy. It just takes being home all day so that way you can figure out what's going on

You just need to develop calf strength and a feel for the pedal. I don't think any drummers with a good right foot actually use the heel-toe technique. It's a waste of time to learn IMO.

I never bothered to learn heel toe and i can get real fast doubles with single pedal. I use a technique that I think is called "the slide technique" where i hit it at the top of the pedal and then slide my foot down and make another hit quickly after that, can get pretty fast if the pedal is set up right

And I don't even play drums lol

@EATshitanddrinkbleac Hustle bones

"No. It's _my_ tempo."

He is the drumming equivalent to show whats possible with just pure passion to learn something. All self taught.

Tryyyyyyy n tryyyy

@@eragonandsaphira1843 I’m about a week and a half in. Noticing some improvements and practicing rudiments a lot, I play 3-4 hrs everyday after work. Haven’t touched video games since getting the kit lol.

@@squanchysquanch1840 so how is it like now?

@@skullnumb1532 I play 30 min to an hour daily now. 15 minutes of rudiments at least. Im very consistent with this and I’ve noticed massive improvements over time. Single stroke/double stroke roll, paradiddle (with variation, for example incorporating the kick instead of using both hands) are the 3 main rudiments I practice. I also practice a lot of triplets using my kick to practice fills. I am comfortable playing 1/4 notes 1/8 notes and 16th notes on the hi hat. Very comfortable In 4/4 time or variations of it. Feel like I have decent groove and timing but need more work on incorporating fills. Need to learn some new time signatures. Overall, I’ve made massive strides and am starting to feel comfortable on the kit. Can’t wait to move into a house so I can buy an acoustic kit. I wish I started playing earlier in life, but still feel like I have plenty of time to master the craft. I’d say I’m starting to get into intermediate skill level.

@@squanchysquanch1840 keep it up bro

i'm glad you named herb. he's my all time favorite

i wanna see zach hill make some stuff with sam gendel definitely
