Michael Martin - OTARGOS - Dominatrix Drum Playthrough

Описание: Hey guys !

I am Michael Martin and I'm super stoked to tell you I will be drumming for the french black/death band OTARGOS for the coming weeks, months and years !!!
This is a play through of the opening track from their latest record Xeno Kaos. This song is called Dominatrix and is really really REALLY fast. The exact tempo is 264BPM and I had to work on my stamina like a drum nerd to reach this speed.

All OTARGOS' drum parts are amazingly demanding in terms of speed, stamina and control: that will be a huge challenge to play with them. Of course, I've learnt this song by ear so there might be some slight differences between the studio track and my version.

I'm using flying finger technique for blast beats and double-stroke technique for the super fast foot parts.

Tempo is 264bpm / no edit / only one take

Special thanks to my partners in crime:
Martin Montillet from Reborn To Die Again and KRD Audio for the recording and the video edit. Welcome to the family dude ;)
