0:00 - Introduction
Remember the first time you heard "Enter Sandman" by Metallica?
Or maybe you've never heard the song at all.
It's one of the most popular metal tracks of all time, but those outside the metal or rock world might not recognize it.
The last time Larnell Lewis came out to Drumeo, we challenged him to write a drum part - on the spot - to a song he'd never heard before (click here to watch) and he blew everyone away.
This time, Larnell wanted to try a style he's not known for playing: metal!
If you want to see a fusion drummer try to play one of the most popular metal songs of all time, don't miss this video (you can skip to 9.33 if you just want to watch Larnell play).
01:08 - Active listening
When learning a song, he practices active listening, which includes looking for these things:
Song form: How many measures are in each section?
Tone: How does the song feel? Is it aggressive or calm?
Specifics: Any shots you should look out for?
Larnell takes an analytical approach and breaks down all the details, noticing patterns and themes and how the different instruments play off each other. Because of this, he can already hum the chorus' melody and drum part after only hearing the song once, and remembers most of the structure as well.
09:33 - Performance
While he's known for his great drumming skills, he also has excellent listening skills and a strong memory. Larnell knows what to prioritize when learning, so he's able to learn quickly. You can learn how to do it too!

Not quite sure which is more unbelievable: His extraordinary talent OR the fact that he never heard of Enter Sandman.

@ezekielwriter2620 3 жыл бұрын

I hadn't even heard of Enter Sandman until I was about 14, I guess it depends on the environment you're raised in, my parents were heavy reggae and RnB listeners so that's all I heard I was young.

I love how he recognizes that the half-beat would mess him up, so he adapted the lines with high-hat fills to not loose track while keepin the half beat on the crashes. It ended up harder to perform than the original line, but for his mind work, the extra notes ended up helping him keep on track. A nice improvise perfect for a first-time performance. A true Genius.

mr. Lewis is not just an amazing drummer but an incredible musician. he serves the song and not himself which is how he can hear things like the up beat hits and moreso the key change. he's got chops for days and could easily be one of those drummers who has to show all of them in every song. I love these kind of drummers but Larnell is so musical. so tasteful. one of the best in my opinion. god bless you mr. lewis!!

Watching someone who is so good at his craft dissect a tune like this is amazing. A man who is that technical walk through tune like enter sandman is awesome to watch. It was cool to see the transformation, he was very studied and near introspective in the beginning, he got a little more comfortable, loosened up and then the power of BLEEEGGGGGH compelled him to just let her rip. A lil surprised he didn't charge through the kit after. Also after seeing this I think his feet are so fast I don't know if he'd need a double pedal for blast beats. He had so much fun! So well done dude. Much Love Mr Lewis!

wow. i had to scroll through a few of these videos in this series to find a song that i truly knew & could really grasp with full appreciation the talent behind the artist’s ability to align with a song completely unbeknownst to them & put out what sounds - to me - to be - if i closed my eyes - arguably, the original. this drummer made my love for one of my favorite songs - renewed. this artist is SO talented ! & helps me to appreciate the unbelievable talent of even those drummers in this series performing songs that - likewise - i do not know either. regardless - every drummer & every song i’ve watched in this series so far i wouldn’t have been able to differentiate from the original or not, whether i’d heard it before or not.
