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.

    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. 🎉

    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.

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.

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!
