Awebo weee, gracias.

Aver cuando jamiamos otra vez we:P.

[MikeAmaro77]

nice work man!

[GIANCARLOCORTES]

Oh shit, you're actually right:P. I didn't make the bass drum though, my dad's friend made it. When I got the drums, I had no idea how to build a bass drum.

Does this make the bass drum sound significantly worse or not really? Cause if it does I can just change the heads and play it like it should be played.

[seinty]

your bass drum is backwards

[GIANCARLOCORTES]

Backwards?

[seinty]

yup ino you probably dun this so that the tom mounts are closer to have the toms closer but the legs on the bass drum shud be at the front to raise the bass drum so the sound dosnt travell downwards rather than forwards  sorry for the massive comment :P ? am i right?????

[MaskProduction]

dude if you ever meet Lower D tell them you wanna try out for drumminng cuz you got the talent bro

[fastflame304]

so balliinnn.

[GIANCARLOCORTES]

Thanx bro.

[tristanhopperton]

PERFECT COVER! 29 thumbs wayyyyyyyy up!

[ramadon222]

damn duke.. you absolutely killed it.. ive been doin music for alot of years and you got a bright future bro believe it!!!

[andrew12398]

I know how you feel, you can't hear mine either :(

Hell of a good cover though.

[dannerka]

well done!

[ericb11211]

"Oh and if anyone thinks I am doing the bass drum notes wrong cause you can't hear it, just look at the Yamaha sign whenever the bass drum is hit in the song, you can see when I hit it.

Same with my other covers."

same reason i replaced my white shine head with a black one. i want people to know what im playing at unmiced gigs:D

[GIANCARLOCORTES]

Ahaha, yeh, makes sense.

For the most part, people don't really pay attention to the bass drum at shows, only drummers do.

[StatenLights]

good job, man. Lower def is absolutely amazing.

[ch3sterp]

I love em too. too bad their like done :( unless the find a new member :*(

[eaturdrums1994]

Dude, that China is DONNEEEEE.

[GIANCARLOCORTES]

I know man, but I needed it for the breakdown:P.

[ElBocadillo]

my zxt china doesnt sound that good, maybe i should break it lol

[ElBocadillo]

awesome cover. great fuckin job!!!

[wwh92]

I KNOW THAT GUY!

[mydarksidez]

love the "Cross each others lives" XP

btw what is that thing on top of your ride cymbol

and i got another question but leave it for the next comment :P

[GIANCARLOCORTES]

That thing on top of my Ride is a 'Zil-Bel.'

It's a special bell that most screamo bands use. Examples: Devil Wears Prada, Chiodos, Pierce The Veil, Lower Definition, etc.

[mydarksidez]

ah alright then, u just helped loads! thanks ;P

[mcp0301]

great job. i was looking at the yamaha symbol to make sure you were hitting the double bass. lol great job though.

[GIANCARLOCORTES]

Of course I hit the double bass dude, it's the most important part at the end.

[duckattak]

what kind of ride is that? sounds clean

[GIANCARLOCORTES]

It's a 20" A Custom Medium Ride dawg.

[duckattak]

fuuuuck nice cover. i like that ride. have you tried sitting higher before?

[GIANCARLOCORTES]

Thanx man. Nah, I haven't.

I am used to sitting that way.

[futurefalcon2012]

[Sedrom]

[Sedrom]

[Sedrom]

[branimal04]

[GIANCARLOCORTES]

Thanx man.

:P

[dannooooooo]

sick cover dude, sick band but i find alot of there songs sound alot the same. shud cover pueblo cicada. props

[GIANCARLOCORTES]

Yeah, they actually kinda do, I admit. But I like their music, it's very distinct. And I'm from the same part of San Diego as their from, so it's kind of a pride thing also.

[emokllrs8]

what part of sd r they from anyways?

[GIANCARLOCORTES]

They're from a place called Eastlake.

It's not that big man.

It's in Chula Vista.

[emokllrs8]

o there from cheaslake? thats interesting, so ur from there to?

[GIANCARLOCORTES]

Ahaha, you call it Cheeselake also?

Are you from SD son?

I'm from like Bonita but it's super close to Cheeselake.

[emokllrs8]

hahah of course i am. i go to bvh! hahah nd u?

[GIANCARLOCORTES]

Sick man, some of my best friends go to Bonita Vista. I go to Saint Augustine.

[emokllrs8]

sick, what grade are u in?

[GIANCARLOCORTES]

I'm a sophomore son:P.

[emokllrs8]

dam, so how long u been playing?

[GIANCARLOCORTES]

6 years and counting down.

[emokllrs8]

noice, ur pretty good especially for a sophmore, and this is a really good cover. im gonna make some lower d covers when i get some drum mics and some free time

[GIANCARLOCORTES]

Thanx man, the drums actually don't have mics, the camera just makes 'em sound nice:P.

[emokllrs8]

u have a sick ass camera then, well. i still want mics baha

[GIANCARLOCORTES]

Nah, the camera kinda sucks, don't know why it sounds nice.

But yeah man.

[emokllrs8]

haha. keep making vids man

[GIANCARLOCORTES]

I just recorded to old Lower D jams today.

[emokllrs8]

really?. u gonna put them on here?

[GIANCARLOCORTES]

Fuck yeah man.

They're from moths.

[emokllrs8]

shit! what songs?

[PrepareToDie]

hey GIANCARLOCORTES.. are you left handed?

[GIANCARLOCORTES]

Nah man, I'm right handed, like the majority of drummers out there:P.

[PrepareToDie]

chyeah.. me as well.. just wondering cause of this song.. guess its just the style of song..

[GIANCARLOCORTES]

Ohh you mean the, 'You say you know, but I don't think you do!' I hit the hats like that because it's easier for me that way, but you can also do it the other regular way. And that doesn't necessarily mean that a drummer is left handed, I know this one guy that always hits his hats like that.

[cabron226]

i'm still stoked on your cover dude. so sick. haha good job dude

[GIANCARLOCORTES]

Ahah, thanx cabron:).

Request for onther jam?

I recorded Miami Nights by Lower D and Colors by Portugal. The Man but some friends are putting the music on them.

[dude3529]

yea dude well

you should try and do a cover of through the back of a witness that song is intense.

hahaa

yea that would be br00tal if you did!

[GIANCARLOCORTES]

Ahaha, some requested that song also like a week ago, but it's really hard.

Honestly, I can ROUGHLY do it, not perfect though.

The only part I know is the breakdown at the end.

[dude3529]

ahh soo saad dude.

your china symbal is cracked

but it sounds perfect soo its all good..

lol

great cover dude

i wish i had a drummer like you in my band.

[proktm144]

[GIANCARLOCORTES]

Thanx a lot man, Yesterday's Rising is the shit.

They played Soma the like a month ago for the first time in two years, and I played that day at another show:P.

It sucked, but yeah, thanx a lot man!

[daughtersjean]

[GIANCARLOCORTES]

[GIANCARLOCORTES]

DUDE, MIAMI NIGHTS DEFINITELY!

That's my favorite song off the record.

And I recorded a To Satellite one, it's just it lagged when I uploaded it.

If you want I'll give you a link to download the regular video without the music:D.

[fatfishy888]

[GIANCARLOCORTES]

[carlosxface]

I know that guy!!!

[RAPTOR660R]

dayyuuummm foo ur getting better!! its me sammy!! haha aye i wanna start learning how to play drums! ive just been surfing alot dude!! well u should go to lower D and this is the hospital october 10th main stage SOMA~~!!

[GIANCARLOCORTES]

Haha, thanx Sammy!

You know I'll be there.

Most of the bands are fuckin' sick!

:D

[RAPTOR660R]

yeah dude check out my cousins band (this is the hospital) and of course lower d! but yeahhh dude if i get a drum set soon u should help me out!!

[gimmikhimself]

Another good cover, sir.

[Freestylecrew]

o and whats your cymbal setup?

[GIANCARLOCORTES]

I do not listen to Misery Signals but I hear they are pretty good.

I will try, dude.

The setup is:

Hi-Hats - New Beat Hi-Hats 14" Avedis Zildjian

Crash - Crash 17" A Custom

Ride - Medium Ride 20" A Custom

China - Cracked China 14" ZXT

:)

[Freestylecrew]

very very good job

you should sit straighter though

[GIANCARLOCORTES]

Yeah man, you're definitely right.

I guess it's just the position I am used to.

It kinda sucks cause I have had back pains cause of drums.

[Freestylecrew]

yea get  a throne with a back rest and itll help

[GIANCARLOCORTES]

Yeah, it's just that I am kinda broke right now.

My snare bottom head actully broke a little before I did this.

So I had to get this extra coated snare head I have and rip off the coating so it would be clear.

So, I used that on bottom of my snare, that is why it kind of sounds shitty.

[Freestylecrew]

o i see, well once you get some cash invest in that. and if you can try and cover some Misery Signals.

[TMVowns]

that was sick man..

do inertiatic esp

[brunomorano]

fuckin' great

[bearnardoh]

who ever made this is a sexy bitch.

good job by the way.

[plasticsuns]

very good job dude.
