Art seems like such a cool guy. I actually prefer his drumming to Adler's.

@Drumeoofficial – Why was this mixed this way? When Art is doing the full performance, the loudest part is Randy's vocals. Way above the drums. Shouldn't it be the other way around??
Turn down the other tracks and turn up the drums in the mix so we can hear exactly what Art is doing. It kind of defeats the point of a drum demonstration if the drums are mixed below the vocals.

In the future can you use and Drum & Bass song without the drum track to see what a rock drummer would do with the beat?? Could imagine them elevating each song with a decent beat instead of the repeat D&B usually has.

I've only started to watch Drumeo, and now I've grown to be curious; in those "Drummer Hears Song For The First Time!" type videos, is it mandatory to be English Songs? Because there are a bunch of cool Japanese Rock songs out there that I'm interested in hearing their interpretation.
One of which, could be Haruka Mirai (Last Page) because, for me, as a new drummer, I love their drums there on how intense and fast it sounds, but then again, it's not English so.. but I would love to see Sir Dirk Verbeuren try it, cuz 1.) I'm definitely sure that he doesn't know that song and 2.) I think it'd be a cool experience for Sir Dirk and Drumeo all in all to explore songs even outside the natural language.
