Cobus - Jonas Brothers - Burnin' Up (Drum Cover) By deedlebag http://www.cobuspotgieter.com http://www.facebook.com/deedlebag This is a drum cover (or remix) of the Jonas Brothers' song, Burnin' Up. Pop and Rock politics aside, this was one of the grooviest songs i have ever jammed to.. was an incredible amount of fun. (As for the drumming intro; it's the only part of the song that was written beforehand, the rest is all improvised on the spot, to keep things fresh and unpredictable.) I have to emphasize, I know calling this a "cover" is wrong, seeing as I only PARTLY stayed true to the song's drums (or lack thereof), through the WHOLE song i play some variations of the beats, phrasing and fills, since 99% of what i play is improvised. Even though i have done my fair share of session and studio drumming, that has little to zero effect on these video's, I kind of see them as live performances. I'm NOT aiming to be accurate to the original drums, I'm just aiming to enjoy myself. And I thoroughly succeeded in doing that, might I add :) Jonas Brothers - Burnin' Up from the 2007 release "A Little Bit Longer" is the copyrighted property of it's owner(s).

Cobus - Hillsong United - Take It All (Drum Cover) By deedlebag Laus Deo Semper. http://www.cobuspotgieter.com http://www.new.facebook.com/pages/Cob... This is a drum cover of Hillsong United's song, Take It All. As with the Planetshakers song, I was really scared of doing a praise+worship song as a "cover" since I find it pretty darn weird jamming and improvising (and especially "entertaining"..) with a song intended to give glory to God. A lot of people have been asking about a few p+w songs, so I decided the only way I could record it was if I in fact really DID praise and worship God while playing this, so I got really into it :) Because of that, this is a really personal performance, and so i'm a bit scared of uploading it because of it being a lot more personal than just another song. Laus Deo Semper. I have to emphasize, I know calling this a "cover" is wrong, seeing as I only PARTLY stayed true to the song's drums (or lack thereof), through the WHOLE song I play some variations of the beats, phrasing and fills, since 99% of what I play is improvised.

Cobus - Inslowmotion - Stupid Things (Original Song) By deedlebag Laus Deo Semper. http://www.cobuspotgieter.com http://www.inslowmotionband.com http://www.new.facebook.com/pages/Cob... This is a "drum cover" of Inslowmotion's song, Stupid Things. As some of you propably already know, the band I play in is called Inslowmotion. We recently finished recording our self-titled debut full length album, which will be released early next year. The Hybrid Series will contain 5 of our songs, so you guys can hear what we sound like, also so you can hear what type of drum parts I write myself :) The 5 songs that will be uploading will be three english songs, and two Afrikaans songs. Concerning the drum parts.. this is pretty much a pop-punk song, with two movements. The first is straight forward and pretty anthemic, and the second is a way out, strange, very full, (and almost "stupid", hehe) movement. In this second and last movement of the song I play one of the grooves in my arsenal that I am most proud of. It turns into two-dimensional polyrhythm, and then a three dimensional polyrhythm just before it goes to the toms-variaton of the same groove. Written as a simulation of and metaphor for the contradicting complexity of doing stupid things, even though you know you shouldn't. I love it :) As I always say, these video's are to be viewed as live performances, NOT studio recordings. I don't hold back, I don't underplay.. this was fun and I totally went out to enjoy it :) Critique in terms of originally written performances is always difficult, since it is so very very subjective; that said, I will LOVE to hear what you guys think of our material, please rate the video and leave comments, it'll be MUCH appreciated.

Cobus - Usher - Caught Up (Drum Cover) By deedlebag Laus Deo Semper. http://www.cobuspotgieter.com http://www.new.facebook.com/pages/Cob... This is a drum cover of Usher's song, Caught Up. First off I should say I used this song as a warm-up.. It was inserted at the beginning of the third set and I used the verses to get the tightness going and the choruses for fills, loops, etc. I really dig hip-hop, I love solid grooves and tight phrases.. LOVE it. So obviously this was then a LOT of fun to do, the song is pretty basic, I went a little nuts in the choruses, was so so so much fun. I should also mention, this was totally inspired by Aaron Spears' performance of this song at the 2008 Modern Drummer festival. I saw a clip of this and HAD to cover it, looked like an insane amount of fun. I've also really gotten into the drumming of Aaron himself, aswell as Gerald Heyward.. unbelievably talented muso's, MAXIMUM respect. I am totally convinced you can't really play drums until you can groove, and these guys redefine what it means to get and to stay in the pocket. (check out Aarons performance of this song, SO good, just search "aaron spears caught up") I have to emphasize, I know calling this a "cover" is wrong, seeing as I only PARTLY stayed true to the song's drums (or lack thereof), through the WHOLE song I play some variations of the beats, phrasing and fills, since 99% of what I play is improvised.

Cobus - Drumsolo (Hybrid Series 2008) By deedlebag Laus Deo Semper. http://www.cobuspotgieter.com http://www.new.facebook.com/pages/Cob... This is just a short little solo from the Hybrid Series 2008 recording sesions. Eventhough I planned a much more extravagant solo than this for the Hybrid Series, I unfortunately just didn't have enough time to do it as i originally wanted to; so this not a planned and written and rehearsed solo, just a little short improvisation.

Cobus - Vanilla Sky - Umbrella (Drum Cover) By deedlebag Laus Deo Semper. http://www.cobuspotgieter.com http://www.facebook.com/deedlebag This is a drum cover (or remix) of Vanilla Sky's cover of Rihanna's song, Umbrella. (whoa, now that's one complicated sentence) Crazy amounts of fun, this one. Loved the groovy parts in the intro and outtro, aswell as the heavy stuff in the middle. Obviously the last few choruses were also quite nice to do :) (As for the outtro doublebass crossovers; it's the only part of the song that was written beforehand, the rest is all improvised on the spot, to keep things fresh and unpredictable.)

Cobus - Avenged Sevenfold - Afterlife (Drum Cover) By deedlebag Laus Deo Semper. http://www.cobuspotgieter.com http://www.new.facebook.com/pages/Cob... This is a drum cover of Avenged Sevenfold's song, AFterlife. I had only been playing doublebass for a few months at the time of this recordig, so please be lenient with he comments about that ;) For the record, ALL double strokes were played with one pedal, ie the ones at the end of the gutiar solo, as you can very clearly see by how crazily tired I was after that piece :) I would hve LOVED to show you the FootCam of this, but I forgot to rewind the tape for the whole third set, so with a few songs I unfortunately couln't use the FootCam shots.

Cobus - System of a Down - Toxicity (Drum Cover) By deedlebag Laus Deo Semper. www.cobuspotgieter.com www.new.facebook.com/pages/Cobus-Potgiet er/18074843749 This is a drum cover of SOAD's song, Toxicity. Again. As much of you know, I have done this song before.. Not being totally satisfied with the outcome, I uploaded it anyway. The day after it took the "most viewed video" spot, I took it down, as I felt it was a very misleading example of my style, since it was so grossly and unaccurately overplayed.

This is a drum cover of Sum 41's song, Fat Lip (10% faster) Since I started playing pretty much JUST the Blink182-esque flavor of punk rock, this has always been a big favorite of mine.
