Message in a Bottle - The Police - Drum Cover By Domenic Nardone
Музыка
Here I am attempting to be Stewart Copeland for 5 minutes. He has always been one of my favourite drummers! I used a new camera for this video. I bought a small GoPro Hero 2 camera, a cool waterproof, high definition video camera that is more geared toward sports related video. You can strap it to your wrist, chest or head and attach it to helmets. In this video, I've got the camera strapped to my head so it gives a unique "drummer POV (point of view)" If you want to see how the camera reacts to running and going underwater, check out this video...
• Video
I filmed the song a few times, Once with the GoPro on my head and the other times without it.
As in all my other videos, the audio is recorded once...usually while I'm filming the front view. In this case, I had two cameras filming while I recorded. The front view and side view. All other views were filmed separately. If I make a mistake while filming another view, I always revert back to the front view for that scene.

Stewart Copeland is one of the highest rated drummers EVER...he has reggae and jazz influences in his fling ! All 3 Police members are very intelligent and talented individuals. You won't find that many good bands like this in the next decade!

You know, i grew up casually hearing so many bands and songs that i just did not appreciate anywhere near enough, and didnt realize it until my 30's. Sooo much music just in the 70's and 80's alone with such depth and such genius and dynamics baked in, that is soooo easy to miss, if you are just a "casual" listener. I have since repented of that sin, and now study music at a deeper level. Its like a magical force in this world, for real. 🎉

Yeah, I tend to be stuck in the music of the 70's and 80's. Of course, my age plays a big factor.

Hi Vitotone! Thanks for the comment. I generally spend alot of time figuring out a song by ear. I have a fairly long commute back and forth to work so I listen to a song over and over in my car while keeping time on the steering wheel. Once I get the song tattood in my brain, I'll take it to the kit. For difficult fills, I sometimes slow the mp3 down in a sound editing program like Audacity to figure out what the drummer's doing. I don't use charts and have never taken lessons.
Most people miss Stewart's 4 on the floor kick drum signature. You nailed it.

Shades of Keith Moon. It lets you do all the crazy stuff upstairs without ruining the bass and guitar players' timing.
The quality is excellent- so precise and accurate. Love all the flourishes- power and subtlety together- the hardest trick to pull off
"on point!" love that cymbal work, to me that's what seperated Stewart from other drummers in the alternative/new wave rock music scene was that he made great work and lots of it with cymbals!
Wow! Another brilliant cover. Respect to anyone that can keep up with Stewart Copeland. The guy is a genius, and so musical. And you rocked this. Great song, and a great cover. I'm subbing. You are a KILLER drummer, brother.

Brilliant playing to a difficult number. Loved how you added the ride bell to the main beat. Many drummers say that Stewart used to add stuff in studio and layer it on the track. You actually could do all this and more. Many congratulations to you on playing such a lovely piece. The fact that you have not taken lessons and are self taught is amazing. Best of luck with your God given talent.

Guitar player here. I had listened to this song probably a hundred times but never had paid attention to the drums. A couple of days ago I got spontaneously hooked by the toms part and the drum kick before the middle of the song 0:59. Had to come to YT and find this masterpiece. Looks and feels like a super fun song to play in drums. Makes me so jealous of drum players!

You nailed it. Friggin’ awesome. Drums sound fantastic too. Keep it up.
Brilliant, really well played Domenic. Really got all the little sounds in there. I heard on the album version they used 2 separate drum tracks (but haven't heard official confirmation - if someone knows the truth) and you did really well to incorporate all of the sounds and make it sound really good! Bravo!

Some overdubs on the ride bell rather than two separate tracks; which sounds like either/or, rather than the additional pings that are present in this arrangement.
absolutely rock solid! loved it, a breakdown would be might useful though.... :)

I keep listening to the original and your cover back-to-back, and boy must I say that I'm really amazed at your attention to detail! Loved it to the last bit. It never really is easy to replicate a Stewart Copeland track as is. Kudos!(Special mention to the parts with the double hi-hat and ride, and with the intricate rim-shots)
Awesome man. You killed it. Great job.
There are many covers but this is the best!
Perfect cover. Wouldn't want it any other way!
Best cover I've seen!
Fabulous! Tight, smacking grooving beat. Your drum tuning, particularly the snare, kick and cymbals tones work so well with this tune. Love your hi-hat work. This is a tune I've been wanting to cover. Great job Domenic.
Great work!!!! Awesome
Flawless. Really nice job, top notch video work too!
Nice job! I'm learning this for the band I'm in. Your video really helps!
