    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.

Thanks for being here!

  • @ProjectGnoll
    @ProjectGnoll 12 лет назад +11

    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 12 лет назад +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.

    I know you have your band BUT Breaking Benjamin is currently looking for a drummer. you should send them an audition tape.

    • @spencerwhydoihavetoentermy5369
      @spencerwhydoihavetoentermy5369 10 лет назад +9

      They've already chosen Shaun Foist is their new drummer. He's very good, but it would have been awesome if Cobus had auditioned...

    • @JaxSandman
      @JaxSandman 10 лет назад

      Has the whole band been chosen?? if so where can I see this?

    • @spencerwhydoihavetoentermy5369
      @spencerwhydoihavetoentermy5369 10 лет назад +3

      I don't think the whole band has been chosen yet. Ben actually uploaded a photo, sometime back in December I believe, to his Facebook; Ben was off to the side with his amp and guitar while Shaun was behind his kit.
      If he is their new drummer, he'll make a good fit I'd say :D

    • @hugorezende199
      @hugorezende199 6 лет назад +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 RUclips 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.
