Rock drummers used to become legends by pounding out epic arena solos. These days, players are just as likely to become famous by uploading covers of beloved songs to YouTube or Instagram, which can rack up huge numbers. When it comes to going viral, flair, originality, and a grabby conceptual hook can matter more than chops. Here are four online drummers who rose to the top. Deden Noy The Hook: There are DIY musicians, and then there’s this YouTube drumming sensation, who rocketed to viral fame earlier this year with his spot-on prog and metal covers, played on a kit fashioned from literal junk: a snare and tom-toms made from plastic buckets and water jugs, metal pot covers used as cymbals, and even ingenious makeshift foot pedals for his “bass drum” and “hi-hats.” The Backstory : A father of two living in Batu Lambang Village, at the southern end of the Indonesian island of Sumatra, the drummer — born Deden Pramana — was gigging at local weddings before the …

Whether you’re driving to the club, dancing at the club, or pounding tequila shots at your best friend’s wedding, carefully crafted tracks — parts of which have been sped up, slowed down, loudened for affect, and quieted for introductions and commentary — are soundtracking countless festivities and events. While original creators in these cases are supposed to be paid performance royalties (something that’s easier to police on the radio than at a wedding, for example) they do not earn per-play monies à la streaming . Why? An accessible, DJ-first platform with the appropriate, licensed music just doesn’t exist.
