What It's Like to Record at Drumeo (And How I Did It)

Nate Smith September 18, 2022

First things first - if you haven’t seen the Original/Protptype drumeo video, check it out here.

While over the years a decent number of YouTubers have collaborated with Drumeo, I guess I'm lucky that so far noone has vlogged the experience.

So it was that it fell to me - reluctant/amateur Casey Neistat to document things. To be Your Man On The Inside.

And, as I say in the video, "vlogging ain't easy". It's not like ten years ago, when people would look shocked if you pulled out a camera and started talking to it in public Today, it mostly just elicits eye-rolls - "Oh, you're one of those guys."

"Outtake" moments include my lens cap falling off and rolling down the long aisle of an aircraft, for everyone's amusement, while taking off from Laguardia.

But I made it, and I managed to smuggle the footage out with me.

Expect to discover:

  • What it actually looks like inside Drumeo HQ and what the studio looks like

  • What it's like to work with them

  • How I got the gig in the first place

  • Why Montreal in March is no bueno

Hope you enjoy!
