If you're talking about people challenging El Estepario and it being a competition for him, its not, its really about inspiring other drummers. He's talked at length about talent and how he thinks its a scam; its about practice and routine but also having fun. He's satirizing. The message is if he can play it with one you can do it with two. That's what these videos are. Maybe they are a challenge but its not a personal one, the challenge is become a better drummer.

@@AndrewRooneyDrums he’s also done a couple videos where he showed some comparisons of how his playing has improved over time and it seems like it’s just been the last couple of years that he’s gone from being a pretty good drummer, to being the absolute machine we see today. I’m not even a drummer, I’m a guitar player and I just find this guy fascinating, and I love his videos. I’d love to see if he could write a drum part using two hands that’s literally impossible for most drummers to play-that’d be the real flex, and would really raise the bar for aspiring young drummers. Like the 4 minute mile, or guitarists trying to play Flight of the Bumblebee at ridiculous speeds, just because they can. Since I’m not a drummer, and he’s the only guy I’ve ever seen doing that one handed technique-is he literally the first, or was there someone else doing that before him even?

@@kernelpickle I don't know anything about drums. But somehow I watched most of his videos. The first time I saw his video I watched them till 3:00 am.

3:55 it is a weight inside the rusty old cowbell. the purpose of the insane amount of dampening effect he gets with all that weight, is because he plays SO fast, and combine that with the microphone pickup element that he needs to carry over to our ears, it's necessary. basically, in short, without the 10 pounds of dampening, our ears wouldn't hear the quick snaps, and we would instead hear a blur; being able to hear every single distinct stroke SEPARATE from the next, is key to his raw speed coming across clean and pure to truly convey his talent.

He's playing the hats and snare together during the blast beat part, hats with the shoulder and snare with the butt of the stick. Damn he's so good that it sometimes looks like a cartoon because it seems humanly impossible :)

The insane thing about his Bat Country "cover" is that you wouldn't even know it's not the original drum track if you weren't looking. He's clean af.

EL ESTEPARIO SIBERIANO took over the drum internet by storm. He is all over the place. As a drummer, I admit his talent is absolutely shocking.

"best drummer" are not satisfying their ego, but creates grooves with other instruments. this makes a good drummer "the best" drummer. Calling this guy "the best" is offensive toward many others that does not have this speed, but can perform in different band giviong a different grove. Listen to his cover of the intro of Dave ghrol in song for the death; he is patetic. A drum machine can do the same, even faster.

When you get the chance, he has a video about talent being a myth or something like that, but it shows his progress over 8 years or so and its rather inspiring and motivates me to be better, and i use this not only in my drumming but in other aspects of life as well. I know i cant practice like he does but it does push me to do better and be more disciplined.

You can see the interview in “The Wild Project” channel here in YT.
