Laus Deo Semperhttp://www.facebook.com/deedlebag(by far most active here. fo shizzle.)http://www.cobuspotgieter.com(head over to the forum and tell everybody what you think of the video!)"Less is more" cerainly doesn't apply here, haha, definitely one of my most overplayed covers; starting with the song's drumming already being quite busy. LOVED it, though. Zac has a style that I love listening to and it's so much fun jamming along to this song.A technique that I stumbled accross while jamming a week or so before recording these covers, is hitting the cymbals from underneath; and although this looks kind of cool, the main reason is fluidity. I find the action to be much more natural when the stroke comes from exactly where it is; ie I had just finished hitting the floor tom, my hand is already underneath the cymbal, so it makes more sense to just hit it from there, as opposed to lifting it up and THEN hitting it; which equates to double the distance. Those kind of strokes feature quite regularly in the bridge of the song, I love using it.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.~Paramore - Carefulfrom the 2009 release "brand new eyes"is the copyrighted property of its owner(s).~Drums:UDRUM | http://www.udrum.comCobus Potgieter LDS Signature Serieshttp://www.udrum.com/db/viewpic.php?ID=312http://www.udrum.com/db/viewstore.php?ID=273Cymbals:TRX Cymbals | http://www.trxcymbals.comElectronics:Jobeky Electronic Drums | http://www.jobekydrums.co.ukRecording equipment:Samson | http://www.samsontech.comsupplied and imported by Audiosure, South Africa | http://www.audiosure.co.zaSkins and sticks supplied byMusic Connection | http://www.musicconnection.com

Sep 8, 2010 - Hey Cobus. How comes WMG doesn't mute your tracks?Are you paying royalties or do ya think it's the credit for copyright that's saving ya?Just curious. Mine keep getting muted. Lol
klitoop0792 Says:
Sep 8, 2010 - @sonaddict93 yeap the guy is cool im not hater but with new albums and new stuff he should use new drum beats or even addapt doble bass rather than use almost the same single bass beats to his songs... just saying
