Beat Box Vs. Drums

Posted at 12:01 PM on September 21, 2006 by Hans Eisenbeis (1 Comments)

Being the modest and stoic fellow that he is, Chuck Olsen did not alert us to this, his awesome MNStories video of Hieruspecs. What's nifty and fascinating about this clip is that it's a dueling drum solo--between Hieruspecs' drummer Peter Leggett (or is that Twinky Jiggles?) and human beatbox Muad'Dib. While the Big Dibber can't quite mimick a roll on the snare, he sure is light and quick on the high-hat. And what's with the alien/cat/zombie eyes? Simultaenously creepy and cool, like so many other Minnesota stories.

    Glad you like! Pretty incredible.
    Muad'dib is very reserved in person.
    Check out this interview and a little of them recording their new album -- I filmed this for Mpls St Paul mag:
