Top Comments of this video!! :3
In his breakdown of the original drums, Nic touched upon something that I think is at the heart of the style difference between rock & jazz. His instinct as a rock drummer was to add his weight to the big moments, amplifying with hits what the horns were doing, whereas the jazz approach was alternating between light and dark (playing or silence) and using the drums to colour that light. Ironically, despite saying he's not Larnell Lewis, by bringing that rock approach to jazz, he made it fusion.

Sometimes we forget the weight of the name he carries too easily. He is humble, well-trained, young and down to earth, he has a great career ahead of him, he did very well on the tour with his father, playing with authentic sacred monsters and in front of very demanding audiences, and in this video he has put himself on the line in the best way possible by tackling a genre that is not in his league with intelligence and musical taste. I can only wish him the best, and if he then succeeds in reviving the glories of progressive rock of yesteryear I would be even happier.

You can tell he's:
A: Into a specific genre
B: Young
C: Very talented indeed
D: Humble
He doesn't have the experience of some older drummers but he has a great attitude and by the 3rd take he's properly getting the idea of it all. He still has that rock drummer power when he could lay back massively, or know when not to play, sometimes but that main groove when he gets on the bell of cymbal sounds amazing. After analysis, too, he gets it.

Dude got thrown straight in the deep end and somehow came out in one piece, mad respect.
