Chris Allison - SEIMS - Showdown Without A Victim
Переглядів 2,1 тис.2 роки тому
Performance of 'Showdown Without A Victim' from the new SEIMS album 'FOUR'. Check out 'FOUR' here: seims.bandcamp.com My approach to this tune was to be almost robotic in nature, which was inspired by the tone & repetitive rhythmic patterns of the bass line. So I just tried to not deviate from the parts themselves & move through each section with little to no fills, whilst also contrasting the ...
'A Moth Goes Into A Podiatrists Office..'
Переглядів 1,5 тис.2 роки тому
A humble tribute to one of my comedic heroes: Norm MacDonald. I originally just recorded a short clip of me playing because I was bored, and then when I was mixing it, I felt it needed some sort of spoken word element. Adding a clip from Norm's infamous Moth Joke from Late Night With Conan O'Brien was my first choice & pertinent to me because of Norm's recent passing. Although it was added afte...

This may be the closest you'll get ti a play through of this. Emphasis on 'may be'. This clip was originally made for IG, so please forgive its brevity. This clip contains some of my favourite ideas I contributed to that record. Maybe I'll make a video discussing my approaches? Let me know in the comments if that's something you'd be interested in.

'Seven Days' by Sting; but it's actually in 7.
Переглядів 3,5 тис.2 роки тому
Two reasons this video is only a minute or so long: 1) I'm not skilled enough to remove the ride bell in the chorus of the original track. I was also kinda lazy & didn't really try because; 2) in my opinion, the joke gets pretty old pretty quickly. And yes, I know the original version is in 5/4. Backing track created via Moises.ai. Gear used includes: Sonor Delite drums, Zildjian cymbals, Remo ...

Killer playing, absolutely insane sounding live. Out of curiosity, is the snare triggered or is it all raw drum sounds? Keep up the amazing work!
Oh man, thankyou for this footage. I play this song while I cook BBQs in Aussieland, ace to see the drums live hell yeah killer
I was at this show. Absolutely fucking magical
i highly recommend a pork pie drum throne my guy! did wonders for my back
Hi Chris, this was quite amazing, I’ve recently started working (uber slowly) through ‘stick control’ after mastering this exercise. Do you have any similar goto exercises for your feet, and/or independence between feet/hands?
sangat rumit sekali .. super amazing...
Thanks for this awesome demo! I've been using the bottom of the fx hat 8'' (like in the video I'm sharing) but I was looking for a smaller option. Thanks for showcasing this! ua-cam.com/video/1SnMI6ZNbnc/v-deo.htmlsi=SmfuCZZxhliINtMP
I bought the sheet music for this album and I am currently working on dialing in perfume and impulse voices (the easiest for me to learn) well enough that i can make videos of myself playing them. My long term goal is this song. This drum part may well be your magnum opus! If i can ever get my way around playing all these different permutations of 15 and get anywhere within the realm of being able to transition between them i will be so happy with myself. This song sets many many high bars and the ease at which you execute it is so humbling. thank you for the wonderful music.
This has to be the best thumbnail of Chris LOL unless somebody has him stage diving shirtless LMFAO- also a good performance excellent dynamic and stick control
Beautiful Feel. Thanks for sharing!
How do you come up with your drum parts for plini's music? Cheers and hope to see you guys in UAE!!
How often does Plini tend to get in car accidents right before shows?
I really want to know about the low-tuned offset snare you use and how to get a sound like that!
Yup, that snare smacks 👌🏻
Now that you’ve been with Plini for a long time, what is your favorite song to play that you didn’t write the original drum track to?
Do the guys in TesseracT still sac tap you every chance they get?
Awesome. Questions: What have you found to be the most important concept when it comes to your own playing? Secondly, how have you approached practising displacement? You're a big inspiration! Thanks for your work.
as a guitarist, how can i work on limb independence and some chops to starts with 😋
How does a freelance drummer like yourself secure high end gigs with artists and celebs such as Tony Hawk? Some stories about being on tour with him would also be cool 😊.
That’s insane I just listened to this song and this pops up
Nice to see these amazing skills up close! Awesome. x
That’s not really fair because you could make the cheapest kit sound amazing! More about the player than the gear. That being said, it does sound incredible haha
Oh I love this! Love the delicacy of the hat pattern.
🔥🔥🔥
The tone and the overall sound of the kit is as impressive as the playing itself. Exceptional all around. Thank you for sharing your gift!
Sounds soooo good 🥵🔥
this sounds amazing! it doesn't look like your room is heavily treated, how do you get such clean tones ? been struggling with eqing drums in my mostly untreated room without taking away too much of the body of the close mics.
Bro how did you tune that snare 😮 SO GOOOOD
The toms are amazing too
I just cranked it up as evenly as I could; the snare itself is doing a lot of the work haha
Toms: reso head are either a major 2nd or minor 3rd higher than the batter head.
Clean and smooth 👌🏻 Awesome sound coming from that SQ1
🧈
I want to learn this song on drums so badly, too bad there’s no notation yet.
Holy shit that snare is incredible
Stank face all along
Your playing is too good. 😮
Sounds AMAZING! So sick! You mix these too?!
Mannnn u need to give Virgil a few lessons melody and relaxation! Awesome Bradda!
Amazing Chris
2 years later and this is still making my jaw hit the floor.
👏👏👏So good!✨🤘✨
How did you know this is exactly what we wanted to see? lol
That sounds awesome
Love it! I'd REALLY love to see that Five Days of Rain groove. So smooth it tickles my brain.
Absolute banger
Amazing !!! My favorite song 2023 !! 👍🙌🙏🤘
Just skiid down a slope cranking this - fucking joy
Top 3 favorite songs or all time
You are a beast!
I love the Meshuggah in the background 🤘
0:57 was insane
