Who's your favorite drummer and why? Mine is Zach Hill because of his ability to go apeshit and still make something that makes sense rhythmically.
James Bradley Jr, jazz child prodigy with a fascinating career. https://youtu.be/ZOtxTyJmxVIhttps://youtu.be/t82m7GMSUz4
what's his name from emerson lake and palmer
>>130163375and
Ginger Baker, Andrew Cyrille or Hossein Tehrani, but then again I don't know, there's so many incredible drummers. There's more to life than YouTube.

>John FrenchNobody broke conventions and still sounded as irresistible as he did with Capn >Bill BrufordHis prog drumming stands above all others, discipline era was peak
>>130163467Ahh shit is that Pearl Jams second but not most famous drummer? My dad would buy you a beer. I like PJ too grew up with them so hard i have to religiously tell kids on here theyre more mature than Nirvana (AiC is still my fave grunge)
>>130163148i find zach a bit uncoherent, like im not sure what parts he has in his mind that make something fit together
>>130163485>John Frenchbased
Dave King, very musical, not one of the greats for most people.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q9hOSZGMXlI
>>130163601id like to know more about his drummingbut then it means i need to listen to beeeeeheartlike having to slog thru coreas pixie music to listen to vinnie
>>130163148Bill Ward cause he plays fun fills, nicely uses tom toms and makes some unusual rhythmic choices (jazz influence). Also his kit just sounds great
>>130164527bill ward is a funk drummer, not a jazz drummer

Buddy SaltzmanWho? He was one of the most recorded session drummers from 1955-1968. He had a feel I love... back before the days of click tracks and quantizing. >Here are a few of the number-ones: "The Loco-Motion" by Little Eva, "I'm A Believer" by the Monkees, "Rag Doll" by the Four Seasons, "The Sounds Of Silence" by Simon & Garfunkel, "Sugar, Sugar" by the Archies, and "Lightnin' Strikes" by Lou Christie. Saltzman's voluminous discography also boasts records by the Cowsills, Neil Sedaka, Solomon Burke, Tommy James, Lesley Gore, Barbra Streisand, and Peter, Paul & Mary

Dave Lombardo
>>130165178I ACCEPT YOUR CONCESSION
I literally only listen to /mu/ meme music so Zach Hill(I am not being facetious or ironic, he literally is my favorite, for the same reasons as OP, and I do literally only listen to things shilled here and on Tiny Mix Tapes when that still existed and sometimes Resident Advisor)
>>130163148yeahhhh in no particular order but starting with some mentioned in the thread already, zach hill, carson palmer, jaki liebezeit, klaus dinger, terry bozzio, jon bafus, robert wyatt, jon christensen, charles hayward, chris cutler (henry cow) and many more... especially if we were to include percussion in general and not just kit drumming.

>>130163148jaki liebezeit from CAN, love his grooves and has incredible feel/time mitch mitchell is up there too, i like his jazz influence, but still has cool rock licks jeremiah greene (RIP) has awesome feel even if he "technically" drags or rushes some. >>130163467good list >>130165069he wasnt bad for a long time, it just sucks he never improved. metallica died with cliff burton did>>130167801good list >>130167824Gadd is one of the greatest to do it, love him on Aja
>>130164458Sounds like s you problem, Pachuco Cadaver or Moonlight in Vermont are very catchy and very great displays of drumming from TMR, and then you have albums like Mirror Man Sessions that show off his playing in a less experimental way for people who have a hard time with trout masks brilliance
>>130167801And the over praise of the police continues
Chris Hornbrook
>>130170179Even on pop stuff like 50 Ways To Leave Your Lover, Gadd is brilliant.>>130170375>reeeeeeee stop liking what I don't like!

Hot take but Danny Carey. Some of his solo drumming vids out there where hes really technical sounds so impossible to play

What plebs think Zach Hill is, Art Blakey actually was.

What are the best mallet percussionists?
>>130171760the best percussionists are male
>>130165317yes, you did
>>130171950you spelled ping wrong, tiny dick
>>130171959you did it again. how tiny?
>>130171996is this you talking to your tiny dick? cute. post feet.
>>130172007I understand. You are a footfag with tiny a tiny dick. Makes sense.
>>130164527>jazzTo me he's more samba
>>130172049i can see you now, with two tiny drum sticks from your lars ulrich action figure set, rubbing your micro peen, coaxing it to life, pretending one day it will be a big clit,"you did it again,Tiny. I understand, Tiny."
>>130173625OH TINY OH TINY IM GONNA PING OH TINYPING PING PING PING PING PING PINGahhhhhh
>>130170307I generally go more for Mirror Man, I like hearing him play across a long jam, but hard to say. On one hand, it's highly documented that TMR had all the drums and cymbals covered in cardboard so they wouldn't piss off their neighbour, but on the other hand the mirror man session is in fact the session where John was told afterwards that his tea had been spiked with LSD
Love this lil nigga

>>130174189muh nigga
I have a really bad habit of not appreciating drummers or bassistsI'll go with John Bonham just because I notice him the most
>>130174752you should go with him because his dynamics are both faultless and the envy of all
>>130174752>not appreciating drummers or bassistsyou mean being based?
Is Jon Fishman actually a good drummer or is he just in Phish?
>>130174774He had one fault. As Ginger Baker said, technically superb but he couldn't swing a sack of shit.
>>130175179i used to think this too, knowing only the first zep album or two, something about the slowness of the songs makes it a bit harder to hear. knowing more of his playing now, thats just not true.
Dave grohl because he rips and thinks aids is made up
I don't know about all times-favorite, but I'm a big fan of Panda Bear's drumming in Animal Collective, back when he didn't use a full kit (Feels, Strawberry Jam, Merriweather Post Pavilion to some extend, etc)The parts he used to come with were actually really refreshing, rarely relying on back beats, usually not even using a kick drum. Nothing too complex but very originalhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ImkOQ3f2m7ghttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HYXBA4IoyHAhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aQTgoQdtxvghttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xE76LFB1saE
>>130174752>notice big drums the mostprobably because sound big
>>130163148the guy from angine de poitrine does all that but better and tight as fuck despite wearing a 20lbs costume
No one mentioning Britt Walford. Shame on you
Simone Pace from Blonde RedheadJonathan Fuller from Sleepytime Trio (also guitarist in Engine Down)Klek from Angine de Poitrine
>>130163148No dynamics
>>130175243Not swing
>>130178650Many such cases with drummers, many such cases.
>>130175085he's a good drummer.
>>130178666holy keks of course it ishttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wEPog_WdPE4https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tVADdyDFLXY&t=1833she doesnt lean on swing as an ostinato, but he swings. zep leans on quater and 8th feels especially when theyre doing theyre fucked up time signature riffs.its not like his riffs are legendary for no reason right?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cLE_GqTyozE

takashi kashikura (from Toe), he has nice touchcan't find a good video with just him drumming but his style was what got me into math rockhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=azSsMG6h8k0&t=1m
>>130179144rock/metal/not music drummers in particular. funk drummers can be fucking baller
>>130180683literally none of this is or has swing. I've been listening to zeppelin for 30 years but thanks for the wikipedia style entry opinions i guess. i'll stick with art taylor, thanks
Nate Smithhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ZKpAPpHm2Q
>>130182697it does swing. you just cant hear. sorry you wasted 30 years. why dont you go listen to ginger baker plod through a double bass solo and crack more wikipedia jokes.
These are my three drumming godsArt BlakeyChristian VanderTatsuya Yoshida
>>130174102its fun to say nigga
>>130163148Reason I love Zach Hill so much is because he doesn't really play like a drummer, he plays the drums melodically almost, he's not just providing a beat the drums literally shape the music itself. Makes total sense he'd experiment with v-drums and vocal samples because he's playing along to Ride's vocals, you hear it in the video your thumbnail is from
>>130186649but it aint always righthttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4C6w8fhxUG0work for peace
>>130175179>>130178666>>130182697Swing isn't the ultimate end goal of all music you fucking drooling retardDurrrrrr elvin jones was okay i guess but he couldn't write a sonata form string quartet therefore he fucking sucks hurrrr derp
>>130186950did you just shit on my man elvin?
>>130163148I usually know very few of them and only because of their bands, if they are among the oens I listen to. My favourite used to be Rob Bourdon from Linkin Park. He had the it thing about, the energy, the charisma if you will.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fy_iNVC10RsSince he left the band I guess now it's Colin Brittain again from LP. He has his own shtick and mannerisms and is very memeable. Drumming is not his main thing, but Mike Shinoda needed a drummer and asked him. The rest is history. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LoQ2veTfEdk
