Drum Teacher Reacts: Just Kick & Snare… And It’s INSANE (Ash Soan)

This one came in from Mike — and this is exactly my kind of drumming. Ash Soan hearing “I Hate Everything About You” for the first time… but with a twist: He’s only working with: • kick • snare • hi-hat That’s it. And what he creates from that limitation is incredible. The feel, the touch, the variation, the dynamics… this is what real drumming is about. What really stands out is how much music he pulls from such a restricted setup — and how the part develops from the first take through to the final performance. Then hearing the original drummer Neil Sanderson react to it adds another layer entirely. If you want to explore this approach yourself, Ash has a full course over at Drumeo based around this exact concept: Drumeo 30-Day FREE Trial https://www.drumeo.com/andrewrooney/ Also — Ash is one of my favourite drummers, and I had him on my podcast (NZ Drummer Podcast #69): https://andrewrooneydrums.com/nz-drummer-podcast/ Original Video ► https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-xwIX3b_ab4&t=934s Subscribe ► https://www.youtube.com/user/RooneyDrums?sub_confirmation=1 TIMESTAMPS 00:00 Intro 02:10 Concept & first listen 08:28 First take 11:37 Final take 19:59 Original drummer reaction (Neil Sanderson) 21:43 Ash’s Drumeo course (Kick, Snare, Hat) 23:35 Final thoughts DRUM GEAR USA Fans: Find the best drum deals at Sweetwater Current Deals ► https://imp.i114863.net/EaqZz2 Drums ► https://imp.i114863.net/BXKy00 New Arrivals ► https://imp.i114863.net/DVLeLb Europe & Beyond: My Thomann Gear Recs https://www.thomann.de/intl/thlpg_rqg2g5l68b.html Support The Channel PayPal / Requests ► https://andrewrooneydrums.com/youtube-reaction-requests/ Patreon ► https://www.patreon.com/AndrewRooneyDrums Watch Next Reaction Playlist ► https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLqspKksRqaUURy8K34sBSKvuGo3ApmLC2 Shorts Playlist ► https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLqspKksRqaUWQwIAxemlYg2ifCp2fE9Z4 #ashsoan #drumeo #drumteacherreacts
