Jonathan Sugarfoot Moffett Jonathan Moffett, you have inspired the planet. 🙏🏾
This was so dope! Loved the lesson, and the kit sounds unreal.
That lick at 2:05 was sick. That snare sound though. Love this entire teaching.
I love kaz's philosophy on why he makes his music. It's super inspirational
i LOVE HIS MUSICALITY! Everything he hits seems to fit perfectly where placed.
I almost cried watching this. He's too good
I loved how he breaks down his tracks. Being a drummer who likes practicing to tracks, it definitely gives me a different look on how I approach practice. My birthday was the day after this video was released. What a birthday gift to me! Thanks Kaz and Drumeo
This guy is like a international treasure that a lot of us creative drummers can really appreciate!!!! love these tracks for me and my students!!!
Had the absolute pleasure of hanging out with Kaz a few weeks ago for a second time and he blew me away with his advice, kind words and attitude! This lesson is just proof of that! 😁👍 Not only a bloody great drummer but a great guy too 🙌
It’s amazing to see how different Sput and Kaz played Stutter. So many ways you could approach that song.
kaz honestly is a very inspirational drummer and he inspired me to keep drumming and now im gigging
This video is so underrated!!!
Kaz is a great drummer but an amazing teacher
Kaz is just a fantastic musician ... I've been following home since many years n he is one of the best of the best drummers in the industry... Hope you sir ...!
Found out about Kaz a few year ago, listening to his albums got me back into playing kit. Love his music!
I just found out about this guy and I can already say Im in love with his music and his style. Making music for the drummers is something I have always wanted more of and is inspiring me to get back into the drums.
One of the finest drum lesson on drumeo
His kit sounds so good!

yes...👍👍👍👍
Kaz was the one who inspired me to be a drummer and a composer! This lesson was awesome!
This method is a great alternative to reading or pounding out rudiments. Having the accents in a melody line is genius. Thanks Kaz!
Happy to say that I am proud to be Rodriguez. Congratulations Kaz! Gratitude
Couldn't stop watching..gripping music you create..good to see something out of the box..
I love how I can totally relate to this guy with being musical. I'm always playing to music and I absolutely love this man's style in his playing, his music is absolutely phenomenal and his choices of beats and chops in his playing just amazes me.
I love jamming to Kaz's tracks and I enjoy watching him play drums to them!! Thank you for having him on your show.
Kaz is amazing, he really does wonders with drums. Also, his kit sounds pretty good.
I think I already left a comment, but MAN DO I WANT THAT ALBUM!!! ahaha! Kaz, you're music, performances, and personality are all just so infectious! Such an inspiration to musicians all over the world, yet still so humble and just generally a nice individual! Obviously I cannot forget the fact that your drumming skills and chops are just off the chart!
Very talented drummer and composer. Oh, and that slp G-maple snare, love it!
oh wow phenomenal sound and talent love it thanks, Kaz Rodriguez
Thanks Drumeo for introducing to me so many inspirational artists... I never heard about Kaz Rodriguez but heard so many of his tracks covered by others... such a amazing artist he is
Only 58K views? IT DESERVES MUCH MORE! GREAT STUFF !
Wow! 🤩 Amazing! Great lesson. Thanks Kaz Rodriguez and Drumeo :)
Amazing! :) This philosophy about "melodical thinking" ...love it! and the way how he express himself with smile. Sound of this kit is soooooo good especially snare and cymbals (for sure applause for the sound engineer). I'm in love also with this 7/8 On the Train.
This is one of the best live lessons I've seen. Loved it, so many useful things in an hour. Cheers drumeo and Kaz
I absolutely love Kaz and the style of his music I just can't go without bobbing my head. Thank you drumeo for doing this.
Great way to work on your displacement and songwriting. What a drummer, what a sound! Love it!
Wow I got hooked to this video the second Kaz started to play!
Thanks to Drumeo for bringing this great and inspiring drummer!! He's just a genius of music!!! Love from Mexico! ❤️
Really like the snare sound
The last 15 seconds of clocks was my favourite part but the whole lesson was so good.
Amazing composer, drummer and teacher. Very inspiring.
Thank you SO much for everything you have done here at Drumeo! Kaz and all of the other amazing drummers you guys have had on this platform have kept me inspired and motivated throughout the years. I dream that one day I will join the ranks of a Drumeo lesson giver on the epic Drumeo stage. Thanks again for all your hard work, love, and dedication. And Kaz, you FRICKIN ROCK! Take care Drumeo fam!

P.S. I would jump, cheer, and cry in happiness to be a winner of one of Rodriguez' fantastic pieces of work!
Wow! Serious concept in 5! Thx for sharing... just opened up a whole different way of approaching timing!
I love that snare. Kaz, you're the legend dude!
I love this lesson. Keep up the good work!
wow Kaz. This entire video was so inspiring. I mean you actually get to have a peek inside the genious' mind. SImply brilliant!
Man... the sounds is amazing. Kit incridiable!
La forma de tocar y el sonido que puede crear Kaz es genial por mucho. La expresión de su cara al tocar muestra que disfruta profundamente tocar la batería
What a privileged that was, not only hearing you play but the advice that you gave was priceless. This is the first time I've heard you play and it was incredible! I love drums and I see as much potential in music as there is trying to understand the universe, it's limitless! Thanks for the inspiration!
Sick!! I love this guy and his philosophy.
My favorite part was about triplet-paradiddle exercise,it was amazing how a simple things can turn in to such a beautiful groove and fills. Thanks .
Dude this is so awesome! Glad to see kaz finally do a live lesson!
His rhythm is quite infectious indeed!!! Very nice groove as well.
What a great lesson!... just a basic tips like accent and displacement of them and changes everything.
This lesson is awesome! Haven't seen it all yet, can wait to see the rest!
Brilliant concept! Thank you Drumeo for introducing me to Kaz Rodriguez! 🥁

Better than solid ;)
Great lesson! I'd never heard of this guy but definitely going to look him up - very interesting concept.
Kaz I liked your concept using the triple and paradiddle. This opened up many ideas especially in grooves by combining rudiments in a more simpler way to understand.
I love drumming to Kaz' s music he is so awesome on drums too!!
finally someone who tunes a snare tastefully
Hey guys how are you? Thanks again for the great job that you do !!! Well, the most things that I liked was when he explained that sticking of triplets and paradiddle and then he put it on a groove. Also when he said that he plays the cymbals thinking in colours. That's all, blessings !!!
Great concept for learning and developing drumming style. Shalom
Loved the breaking down part of clocks!!! Amazing drummer!!!
OMG I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS FOR TOO LONG! I am a HUGE FAN of Kaz, his drumming, and his amazing music! I don’t care who gets the free albums I’ll probably be buying the album anyway. I had no idea that Kaz has synesthesia!?!? I too hear and see music as colours! I never even knew it was a “thing” until I was in my early twenties and watched a television program which touched on synesthesia and people who were musical savants. I think synesthesia can vary extremely in its severity where some people literally “see” sounds as colour and others just kind of associate certain colours for certain notes...or something similar...who knows I could be wrong but it would be interesting to hear more of what Kaz has to say about it!
I loved this lesson!
Great drum sounds, love the bite to that snare
You are a great enrichment. You increase the level of drummers worldwide.This is irreversible :) Thank You!
This lesson, has given me ideas on what I should be practicing wow! Kaz is an amazing drummer, his concept breaks things down and I can see the applications musically.. one issue I've had is applying these rudiments musically. i get it now.. now to the drum kit to practice.
Awesome playing and that snare sounds lovely !
Awesome stuff, guys...thanks for sharing
I literally can’t help but smile watching kaz play. Love his energy and creativity. Great composer, would love to hear him work with a new sound palette however.
I met Kaz at NAMM this year and not only has his music and drumming inspired me, but also his personality! Great drummer and dude :)
From day to day I must come here and check this drumset SOUND!!! SOOOOOO AWESOME
Wow...such an amazing drummer!
I love how his kit setup and playing style sounds so god damn chunky n thick in its sound, really stands out.
What i like about this lesson is that Kaz inspired me to Write more Musik. Thanks man... Great Concept and a Great Way of practicing without just The Clicks! Tranks man :)
what i love about Kaz ? I love him as a person. very open minded. Synaesthesia for musicians must be interesting in writing music.
Bought his albums, he's amazing, music is great to practice drum ideas, I actually recorded a couple of videos with his music- THANK YOU KAZ, THANK YOU DRUMEO!
Kaz God bless you. Amazing talent unique concept love it. I'm a fan
Refreshing.
