    with 9 Hero 3+ cameras, in 1080p at 24fps.
    Recorded and mixed using Cubase 8
    Edited using Sony Vegas Pro 13
    Filmed and recorded in Los Angeles, California, USA.
    This video was filmed, edited, engineered, mixed, mastered, and produced in its entirety by Cobus Potgieter.
    NO drum replacement was done in this mix, this is a 100% acoustically recorded and mixed track: absolutely no supplementation, layering, or triggering was done.
    ______________________________
    One of the reasons I started making drumming videos in the first place many years ago, was to SEE myself play and to be able to track my progress. What does my technique look like? Am I hunched over, or relaxed? To this day I still think that recording yourself playing drums is an incredibly valuable educational tool, it helps you see and hear things you'd never otherwise see or hear. That said, when I started prepping songs for the new series I thought it might be really cool to re-do one of my first ever covers, mostly to see the difference in creative approach and technique, and man oh MAN has that been the case! It's been so rad to watch the videos back to back and see the difference in approach now, feels a bit nostalgic, actually! Thanks so much for being part of this crazy journey, and especially to so many of you who have been around for so many years.

    2:36- Even though Cobus is one of the most humble people you'll learn about, his smirk here shows that he has to admit that what he just did was epic.

    The zen-like control Cobus Potgieter​ has around his kit is inspiring. Fun and playful style as usual and massive amounts of control and precision here. Also, I think it's pretty clever that he returned to do a cover of a track that helped him get crazy amount of exposure back in the day.

    Bro! I checked the old video and this one and what can I say.... You have refined your drumming in EVERY possible aspect. Seriously dude, this is such a good initiative; one that can only inspire other drummers to see where they've come from (to help them stay humble) and where they are now (increasing their confidence and desire to continue improving) Baie BAIE goed gespeel amigo ;) Regards from the Mother City.

    This is sick!!! I've been a fan for a while, and I'm a fellow drummer. It's been so incredible to watch you improve exponentially with every series. You always had the raw talent and groove, but man over the last 2-3 years your technicality has gone through the roof. It's evident you've been putting in real work. You've truly mastered the process. Every aspect of your videos from syncopation, groove, accuracy, execution, and production is on point! You're a pro, enough said.

    This is like a whole new level of Cobus... Amazing to see how much you've progressed man.

    Cobus crushes it - pound-for-pound best drummer on the earth (or on any other ball somewhere in the nexus). And boys and girls, this AIN'T easy - the "greats" just make it LOOK easy!

    This is amazing grace by Phil Wickham. I've been trying to get the drum down. I got it but since your the drum I've learn from I would really like you to do a cover of that song.
