Awesome Mike Mangini Video
« on: September 24, 2014, 02:19:46 AM »
Well, besides the great drum sound, it is a great video to show how technical yet very groovy Mike is.

Something's not right with the audio.  I've got it blasting and I can't hear anything.


And I already checked other videos and they're fine.


Anyone else who can't hear the audio?

Yes, unfortunately the volume is very low, but if you turn up your speakers hopefully you'll get to a decent volume level.

So it seems he has cut his hair. :)

They should do something like the last pattern in the next album. Amazing limb independence!

Really interesting video, thanks for posting it! I can definitely hear the audio, but I had to almost double my usual headphone volume on my laptop.

His accuracy and his sense of groove during the most intense moments are what truly amaze me. He always keeps the rhythm locked down no matter how technical the pattern gets.

I'ma just go ahead and call him Mike Machiney from now on.
So fking tired of being an oversensitive naive moronic fkin bitch. I CANT STOP IT. I CANT CHANGE. IM STUCK. This world eats me alive. My purpose is simply to be what others shouldn't be. A shriveled fking beacon of sad energy. I have lost. I am lost.

That was a very different solo, much less technical in a way, more groove. Great vid.

That groove needs to be in more DT music.

Re the volume of this video, I'm so glad it's not just me having problems there. I thought it was a problem with my headphones. I had everything right up and I could only really hear the drumming, and even then not at a truly desirable level.

Once again :

I really love Mangini as a person. I admire and recognise his technical skill and he 100% deserves to be in DT .


However - his solos bore me to tears.


Even as a drummer myself and as someone who did a three year music degree - I can't find anything to enjoy apart from the fact that it's technically flawless.

Musically it does 0 for me on any level.

That's how I feel about drum solos in general. I love drums, I dream to be a drummer, but drum solos are BORING.


I'd comment on the video, but I couldn't hear it...

Weird, when I watch this on my mobile, the volume is ok. When I watch this through my computer, the volume is really low.

Here is the shorter version that includes my favorite part.

The volume on this was way too low for me to enjoy.
Hef is right on all things. Except for when I disagree with him. In which case he's probably still right.

Yeah, the volume was low but MM's personality makes up for it.  He is definitely a very unique individual and has instructor type qualities.

I actually got decent volume by turning my computer volume all the way up then turning my speakers all the way up.

I think Matt Lynch (video above) is amazing. And so is Matt Garstka (from Animals as Leaders).
What impresses me about a drummer is how creative he is. I mean, given a guitar lick (or any harmonic instrument lick or phrase), how he adds to the melody, how he orchestrates the syncopation.
I love drums as lead instrument. I wish I was creative enough to do that!

Yes, the video of MM playing Lost not Forgotten is also amazing.
Why is he using a laptop there? What is it for?
