Kai is just so precise! He's a really neat person, too. I've watched a few interviews with him and he seems to be such a nice person. 👍

@@thomasorn8009 Oh my goodness, I would very much appreciate that. My favorite drummer in the whole world is Ian Paice. I have loved Deep Purple for many, many years, so I admit, Paice is kinda on a pedestal for me. But solidly in second place is Kai. Not only is he a master of his craft, but he seems to be so genuinely kind and humble. Ritchie Blackmore is one of the greatest guitarists ever, and helped form Deep Purple, and yet, I'm not a big fan. Why is that? Well, because he's a big jerk. All the talent in the world can't buy you a good soul. That comes from within. Thanks for sharing this with Kai. Well, not ALL of this, of course. You could just say, "Hey Kai, you've got a fan in California, USA. " 😁👍

I can play this song properly maybe 1/10 times and I have to take a long break after each time because it's not just technically demanding, it's also extremely physically taxing for me. Kai is laughing while playing this beast of a song and all I can do is wonder if he is even human at this point 😅

Nice to see genuine impression, Kai has a nickname of "metronome".. He never misses a hit. Maybe best or one of the best drummers in Finland. Cheers from Finland. Ps. If you haven't checked out Nils Dominator Fjelströmm you should check him out, he's absolutely on next level too.

IMO, Wintersun is the best Finland can offer. The melodies, vocals... musicianship of all its members - just enchanting.

@MikkoRantalainen Жыл бұрын

I depends on the genre you prefer. I think Nightwish, Amorphis, Poets of the Fall, Apocalyptica and Beast in Black are worth checking out, too. In their own genre Wintersun is probably the best.

I am a huge Nightwish fan (I am 62) and he has brought a new dimension to the band along with the vocals of Floor Jansen. You really need to check them out properly. Their previous drummer was called Jukka Nevalainen and he was equally as good. If you are gobsmacked watching Kai also review Slipknot drummer Jay Weinberg and a 12 YEAR OLD Japanese drummer called Junna. She will blow your mind!!!!

Yes, I also think he is the best out there but I have not seen them all. WinterSun don't have so many songs on YT with Kai, it's about 3-4 good ones. If you will see him in full speed, search for "obay" with the group Rotten Sound, but he is now with Nightwish so enjoy that too.

I think this kind of drumming is even more impressive in context (i.e. being able to hear the rest of the band properly). This is already impressive as a long drum solo, but it's hard to appreciate the musicianship that way -- you don't really know why hits land where they do and stuff like that. It's nice to have a fixed view on him though. As a side-note: watch his left foot starting at 15:17 -- opening and closing the hi-hats while keeping the double-bass going.

The human robot. Except this one is genuinely nice and has feelings. The precision througout the songs, the continuity, flawless and faster then light. And you know what? He looks like he could enjoy a nice cup of tea and some donuts while doing this.....or read the paper. And doing it all night. He is not human. Which actually makes sense. The other members of Nightwish are not human either. They were send from planet Alpha to earth to mesmerize mankind and prevent ratkind. They are on a lonely epic level. Speaking of planet Alpha: check out the music from Arjen Lucassen. A project called Ayreon. It features the drummer Ed Warby. Totally different and not as fast as what you saw here, but nevertheless a fantastic drummer. Next to him you see a staggering pile of worldwide talents perform in one show. It's like the musical G20 coming together......

Kai is great. Wintersun is great. Nightwish is great. Anything from those and you can't miss. For something a bit different you should check out a progressive metal band called Dream Theater - their drummers Mike Portnoy and Mike Mangini have done some epic stuff behind the kit. Mangini has some nice play throughs and drum cam videos on his channel here in KZfaq. "Pale Blue Dot" consert drum cam is nice for instance.

Great reaction! Another great drummer at that stratospheric level would be Tomas Haake. Here is a drum video of him playing Clockworks in the band Meshuggah: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/l953oZmiyrCsk4E.html ...or their song Bleed: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/mKd6ZLqFrLStg58.html To be clear though: I'm not making any comparisons between the two. Kai is awesome and I honestly don't think it's useful or even practical to discus "who is best" with drummers at this level... I mean, what metrics would you use and how would you weight them. Bpm? Precision? Feeling? Groove? How would higher max bpm be stacked up against metronomic precision or groove? How would we even define groove? You get the point... Everyone will have their own slightly different opinion and there will be a lot of arguing. I hope you enjoy the videos though.

Not trying to detract anything from neither Kai's or anyone else's skills, but it's simply wrong to dub any one drummer 'the best'. No one is. Imagine all the insane drummers out there. I must admit to the fact that, I've kinda lost my love for extreme metal during the last decade, because most are all about who's the fastest, who's the more technical one, and/or who combine the two the best. Edit: Check out John Longstreth from Origin. :-) Or Eugene Something from Fleshgod Apocalypse.
