Tool - Right In Two - Johnkew Drum Cover

This song was another outstanding journey for me trying to learn it on the drums, like every other Tool song I've played. I'm so impressed with the musicality on this one for the band as a whole. The vocals, guitars and bass, and drums are are a real piece of art. I love how they were able to incorporate the sitar and tabla tastefully in a song that rocks so hard it can melt your face. While they're not the first to use Indian musical elements in a rock song, that they were able to do so without losing their distinct Tool flavor, or sounding hippie-ish in any way is a testament to their originality. I was debating playing the tabla solo on this one because I know that Carey worked hard to learn how to play them. But I'm not pretending to be anywhere close to Carey's skill level, even on the regular drums, and since he plays this part on the mandalas live (and possibly in the original recording if Wikipedia is correct), then I figured I'd give it a go on the Roland pads. And playing along with the tablas just really completed the song for me. So I gave it a shot, of course with no disrespect to Carey's drum mastery. As always, it was a humbling experience playing along with Carey's drumming. I noticed that Carey's playing on this song evolved quite a bit since the original recording. If you watch the live recording from 2011, there are a lot of new elements, in contrast to other songs such as The Grudge where he keeps it pretty true to the original. So I incorporated some of the 'evolved' playing into this cover, and kept it closer to the original in other places where I really liked what was on the recording. The drums are harder to hear in the mix of this song than most of their others, so as I was learning I had to sometimes play what I thought sounded best without being able to hear exactly what Carey was playing. One example of using a live-version idea: starting at 0:45, I tried to play a melody on the pads similar to what Carey tapped on a synthesizer in the live version rather than his alternating patterns of three on the original recording. I used an Ultrabeat setting called "Space Bells", which I programmed for notes which harmonized with the guitar. It sounded good when tracking the drums, but while mixing it, the bell sounds just didn't quite seem to fit. So I turned them way down in the mix, and now I wish I would have just stuck to Carey's original pattern. And at 6:45, I rode the floor tom instead of the ride cymbal like in the original recording because I felt it provided good separation from the previous section (similar to how Carey changed it in the 2011 live show). I like how this sounds, but you can still hear Carey's ride cymbal behind the mix. Anyway, sorry to bore most of you with this overly technical talk, but I know there are many hardcore Tool fans out there who also enjoy peeling back the layers and might want to know that I did think deeply about how and what I played, and didn't just bang it out on the drums. I'm very happy with how the song turned out, and I hope you all also get some enjoyment out of this video.
