    EPIC drummer wrote this drum part, and it's always equally fun and intimidating playing along to one of Chad Szeliga's creations. I have always felt most comfortable playing this kind of hard rock stuff (maybe a little bit heavier) but also with a very strong groove edge to it, which Chad perfectly executes. I love this.
    Awesome band, AWESOME drummer.
    Just as a sidenote (for the audio engineers and mixer who might be wondering) NO replacement or triggering was done in this mix. Every single stroke you hear was just eq'd, mixed, and compressed; I didn't layer or trigger or replace anything.

    UPDATE: I just released a new DRUM LESSON PACK! -> bit.ly/CobusLessons. 5 lessons, 90 minutes, for 27 bucks. It will make you better at tuning drums, mixing drums, I'll show you my practice routine, my worst habits as a self-taught drummer, and teach you one of my favourite linear licks. Thanks for being here!

    I wish more drummers in bands would play like Cobus, he adds in things that he wants to add in rather than sticking to the exact song or the notes that show up, it makes each and every song way more exciting and seriously just makes the audience awe-struck at how amazing the art of drumming truly is.

  • @Paramagic29
    @Paramagic29 Před 12 lety +13

    Not many drummers possess such a natural understanding of what grooves and whats tasty...and to look that comfortable behind a kit? It is going to be heart breaking to hear how good he will be in ten years.

    • @hugorezende199
      @hugorezende199 Před 6 lety +2

      I still canto underdtand why theu choose Faust. Okay he makes breaking Benjamim viver, bit man, Cobus hás a really good technique and lots of diferentes aproachs on songs. Both até CZcams drummers, dia dont show really How tuff theu até on tour but.. Cobus os clearly more techno alguma and pro, playing lots of diferentes Artists.

    • @eliasfigueroa3324
      @eliasfigueroa3324 Před 7 lety +3

      yeah thats Cobus's style of covers...he adds a little more. Its not so much a cover as it is a different way of playing it. Im sure he adds it just to make it more fun than it already is
