Wait so is she.
I’ve listened to quite a few reactions to these two and yours was by far one of the best. Give yourself more credit: you’re not just a *drum* teacher, you’re a full-blow *music* teacher, and a good teacher in general. Not only did you react to DOMi’s insane playing as well, you also took the time to teach us something about their playing, their musical background, the music industry, jazz itself, etc.

@@JunkdrummerTV You're welcome! It's us who have to thank you for your explainers. ;) And you know what, I'm giving you another challenge… How about you react to something a wee bit different (but still on the jazzy spectrum): Clown Core. It's a project not at all (*cough*) made up of Louis Cole (from Knower) and his friend Sam Gendel. You might want to check songs such as Hell or Existence, especially the videoclip versions (they're a whole thing in and of themselves).
DOMi is just like 20 as well. Have multiple degrees with highest honors from the Conservatory in Nancy (yeah she’s French lol). She graduated from Berklee this year too
Louis Cole and Sput from Snarky Puppy mentor the both of these two escaped government projects.

This "if the amen break could improvise" vibe you mentioned is actually the main idea of a style called Breakcore which is probably the biggest influence for JD's drumming on this particular cut at least. If you hear a track by Squarepusher you'll find that what he's doing with programmed beats and samples is basically what JD does on real drums.

The song "Skate" by "Silk Sonic" (Bruno Mars/Anderson Paak's project) features JD Beck on it.
I really enjoyed your review. Thank you.
Yes, was looking forward to this video! I think JD is one of the drummers of tomorrow, but you can tell that he learned from the drummers from yesterday and today (I've seen a video of this duo opening their set with Giant Steps). He's already so incredibly mature with his playing, I'm so excited what we get to hear from these cats in the future. DOMi is just a little older, like 19 or 20. Really digging this duo.
Love your passion and commentary dude! Keep up the content!
Nice, been waiting for this. So impressed by the both of them, have big hopes for their coming album.
This is the best reaction on YT. I needed someone to give me a deeper understanding. Thanks. Instant Sub.
I really appreciate your commentary. Really interesting and something most reactions don't have on this level.
“There is always purpose behind everything you’re hearing”..... that’s such a beautiful way to describe music in general!
This Kid has the BEST breakbeat programmed but still organic feel.
Awesome review!! Entertaining and educational !

I love that the song they are playing is called "U can sniff my butt" but Nord didnt want to put that as the title so its just called "Sniff" JD and Domi are young and weird and immature but they are already grown past most musicians.
DOMi went to Berklee and graduated this year, and JD Beck just graduated from high school. I found them through KennyBeats' Twitch Streams. Super inspirational duo

@Junkdrummer TV I got to say I love this guy, a very cool cat. I'm talking about you. Such a truly refreshing take on the future of Jazz.
Way to drop these kids some props. They are hope for the future.
6:02 While he doesn't seem to reference it in interviews, a lot of commenters bring up that what he plays is basically drum & bass or jungle. I'll go even more specific; he plays drumfunk. It's an obscure microgenre of minimalistic drum & bass producers who cut-up and rearrange breakbeats in 170+ bpm, making sure it sounds as organic and naturalistic as possible. Like an extended drumsolo. Like the song 'Ghost Notes' by Paradox. JD Beck does the exact same thing from the other direction. He often goes out of his way to make his organic drumset sound as synthetic as possible, with those heavily "gated" snares. And then plays these 170+ bpm broken beats.
Things you don’t hear everyday. That dude has an amazing left hand! lol
Listened to several drummers react to JD. This one is the best so far. Steve actually goes into the meat of what's going on, rather than endless surprise smirks and smiles at JD's supreme talent.
Nice episode! I just subscribed to your channel.
Very interesting views and analysis. Thank you! I agree that "the kids are alright."
Great review

"If the amen break could improvise, that's what that would sound like" I know next to nothing about drums, but when I heard this song for the first time that's exactly what I thought!
Thank you for noticing domi’s talent as well. Theyre both so so talented
Ok, that was great. Thank you.

I love all kinds of music from pop to folk to rock to Penderecki to fusion. These two right now have captured my attention big time. They've got something special going on. Also since you mentioned young drummers with natural talent maybe see a young drummer named Yoyoka doing her cover of _YYZ_ by Rush (a one take shot with no cuts that really showcases her skills). She also just co-wrote her first original composition, _Sparkling,_ with musians who have previously played with Prince and Dream Theater. At age 12. She is recognized as a serious up and comer by many well known musicians.
Thank you - i know zero about music, but this conversation is Still, very interesting! And, I Do love JD and Domi - have know about them for awhile...❤
Agree with your thoughts on jazz moving forward. Thanks

How about a reaction to Matt Horn from The Word Alive performing Hounds of Anubis. There are two great videos out there, one being a live video where drums are isolated and one where he seems to be playing at home. The latter would probably be a good starting point so you can hear the whole musical range of the song. Cheers!
I'm about to see these two open for Polyphia. I'm gonna have to sell every instrument I own by the end of the concert.

I love how this intimidated teacher sums it up to, “James Brown with a great left hand”, and EDM gatekeepers say, “he’s just doing what Sqarepusher was already doing”. But I love how no one mentions the fact that Sqarepusher couldn’t actually perform live. Every time he tried, he failed miserably. Which is why he went back to performing digitally every time he failed at playing in an analog context. Then Soulwax came along. So in the end, you’re saying JD Beck was inspired by DJ’s? You’re right
Nobody is doing what JD is doing not even this drummer...not in his wildest dreams🤣🤣🤣🤣
I think it's time you reacted to Aquiles Priester. I recommend anything from the temple of shadows. He has some play throughs on his channel, but I think you should check out his version of through the fire and flames by Dragonforce.

JD didn't listen to James Brown. He started with Tony Williams videos, watched all those then went backwards through all the jazz drummers. Added that to Dilla beats, that is the funk influence.
He's only gotten crazier tightness and really plays around with his kit. 2-3 snares, loose splashes on the heads.

Yeah, keyword on sometimes. This isn’t rock, it’s mainly modern jazz, but even JD and domi don’t know what genre their music is. Regardless, it is incredibly original, initiative, and unique. Putting a fat rock beat, while great in most situations, would dismantle everything that makes their music amazing. JD is a world class musician, who makes a musical choice on every single note.
