@@FlorianPestilenz Haha! “Ulceration 101”.

Gobsmacking elite chops aside, the most interesting aspect of Jamie’s drumming is the unique configuration of his arrangements, like when fills just come from nowhere and appear disjointed, but instead they work, probably due to his impeccable timing.

IMHO, his setup is just a leverage for his enviable drumming. But, indeed, his timings, fillings, all of his plays are extraordinary. For years, he is setting the (human playable) limits - in terms of complexity paired with speed and sublety.

​@@Virvum_Juggernaut Ye! Also his flawless switch from efficient double-bass (calf controlled) to heel-toe for a perfect fraction of timing. He reminds me, that, if you have a HUGE talent, train it nevertheless. The most likable drummers (also featured here) are the most humble ones and yet the most talented - I guess it is a guideline **cough** *Aaron Kitcher sucks* **cough**

@@FlorianPestilenz IKR? “Aaron Kitcher” LMAO! If only he could physically play his drum tracks. I stick to the likes of Jamie, Darren Cesca, David Diepold, Spencer Prewett, Guilio Galati, Sebastian Lanser, Ken Bedene, Kerim Lechner, etc, but my top 2 cleanest speed demons with flawless techniques are Janne Jaloma and Simon Schilling. It blows my mind how the most élite extreme metal drummers of today have mastered every foot technique imaginable and switch between them when necessary (as you mentioned). Edit : How good future drummers will become is a frightening prospect considering that it already beggars belief how insane they are now.

that MASSIVE fill at 1:18 ending with a perfect ping on the ride was absolutely masterclass

His settings is ergonomically the best out there

that snare sounds absolutely incredible 🔥🔥🔥

he’s one of those drummers you can show people who aren’t into metal and they will be impressed as well

Every time Jaime is on the kit is a time to witness an unbelievable work of mastery, his fluency and style is absolutely phenomenal. Incredible indeed.

Really interesting and creative drumming. One of the best Ive seen since Sean Reinert

What makes his performance even more impressive is the fact that he’s doing this on a back line - rented kit. Might not sound like a big deal - and yes a great musician can play on anything - but it just adds to the level of difficulty

Amazing! I listen them sometimes, but my problem with their music it that it's so complex, sometimes overdone, and there aren't many returning elements, it can be overwhelming, and there aren't many memorable parts... but that's just me.
