Cobus Potgieter Drum Lessons: Double Stroke Sweep

[creating13]

lol any tenor marchers (REPRESENT!) will be able to do the sweeps easily!!

[rscottgoddard]

I don't see myself using this technique... I'd rather just use two hands. Good advice though.

[joshuamariano27]

GO TEAM CONAN ^^

[Paiste013]

Like that bell! :)

[N30NT1G3R1]

Hey Cobus, watter stad is jy van in suid afrika? is jy in 'n orkes?

[nightmarealivemetal]

cobus i want your skills but definately not your knowledge of drum theory haha

[LoadingSet7]

I can go like : "tataa tataa"

[Kentsuruki]

"If you have 2 hands you can use 2 hands"

HERP DERP

[MrJellyman300]

I miss Cobus! He felt like he was really apart of the team!

[ILiveForMusic11]

I can't even do that with 2 hands and a double bass pedal.

[miketwo345]

So, am I seeing this right? He plays this (all doubles):

HTom,Foot,Snare,Foot,Snare,Foo­t,LTom,Foot (allx4) ?

[TheCebe95]

@miketwo345 It's high tom, snare, foot, foot, snare, floor, foot, foot.

[wayesey]

Jared, next time, can we get a high-speed camera on Cobus' foot?? Wow... :)

-Ysa

[SuperCoolDomino]

its sounds so weird and cool when its slower :D

[DrumFuckerFr]

Goddamn it Cobus, stop being so skilled. At least explain the other move at 7:55 :')

[blackzeus298]

DAMN.

[metallicasam36]

thumbs up if you love conan too

[smk33321]

those are probably the sexiest cymbals I have ever seen o_o

[ntfd125]

Check out Chad Szeliga's double stroke sweep. I don't remeber which video it is but its amazing. For those who don't know Chad is the drummer for Breaking Benjamin. The channel is Baggistv I think.

[gojiraddict687]

@ntfd125 Dont watch someone's video, then comment on someone els, that's just wrong dude.

[ntfd125]

@gojiraddict687 How is it wrong? Am I tking away from Cobus or Jared. I don't think so. Drummers get ideas from other drummers thats how it works. Chad is a professional drummer he doesn't do instructional videos. I am just trying to help out other drummers.

[RawkinOutt]

Don't sell yourself short Jared. Cobus is very good, but you've got an amazing talent as well. Not to mention, not every drummer can teach like you. It takes a special person to play like you, as well as being able to break it down and teach in a way that anyone could understand. Not every drummer can do that, no matter how much technique and experience they have around a kit. Cheers.

[iah03]

very nice combination...COBUS and JARED! 2 THUMBS UP GUYS...

[Incorruptibification]

what does the circled letters mean in the thumbnail of the vids??theres A and B

[skyskelton97]

@Incorruptibification it's A, B ,and I and the stand for Advanced, Beginner, and Intermediate.

[drummerjen]

Endorsed by DW and then Pearl show up 8:04 lol

[hongee95]

The way you hit the slide on bass. Shooooo smoothh.... Its like impossible.

[indieHindleyMusic]

cobus' slowest is still super fast to me lol!

[JNielsen1971]

One word...AMAZING! Gives me something challenging to work on. Very nice!!

[MrJellyman300]

I tried to do this, but I messed up right leg while racing against my friend. Fail, and now I can walk on my right leg. :(

[GtheJAR]

two of my 2 favourite drummers together... love it:DDD

-... and we have to spin the sticks-

well doh! :DDDDDDDDDD

[SirJohnBonham]

I'd lol if he dropped his stick again! :P

Great lesson though!

[MightymanofGod21]

Awesome- I'm starting to like this Cobus dude's style. Jared: where's Dave at?

[sanddybusum]

i'm so gonna get his good enough purely just to amaze my band mates :)

[STATUSthesleepers]

why not just do this fill with 2 hands? for the dynamic sound of it?

[MrJellyman300]

@STATUSthesleepers He said that you could, and that it would probably even sound better. Unless I misunderstood. I was too amazing by the sweeping.

[JonnySalazar1194]

Im still practicing the herta sweep and jared & cobus already spit out another video -.-

[namelessH3R0]

great video!! :)

what is this amazin bell exactly, except a trx? :D

[Clancedrums]

[kcbszone]

[MrZacharyPeters]

[CastoII]

[JimmyDeanBreakfast95]

[cosmosgato]

It sounds better slow.

[LBird44]

[thewardrums]

What bell is that??? I love it!!

[drumlessonscom]

@iLiiChKiMZz The product is hopefully launching this week sometime. As soon as it comes out I would recommend buying as we will most likely sell out. If you purchase right away you'll definitely get a copy. Also, we've got another surprise in store for all of the people who buy at launch :D

[MrJellyman300]

@drumlessonscom The price, please?

[drums4life5]

I thought it was all about the spins! Where's the spins!

[joeyw1993]

*TING*

xD

[ogelrok]

awesome!

[LaughingOutKraut]

Is Jared wearing a "Team Conan"-Shirt?

[drumlessonscom]

@LaughingOutKraut Yes I am.

[LaughingOutKraut]

@drumlessonscom That's rad! Cobus should do his own version of that, reading "Team Cobus".

[nostalgiacreep]

@drumlessonscom props, jared! awesome shirt :D

[Kruemel952]

Very interesting!! :)

[TheJochemvanberkel]

Nice =]]]

[TheBreakfastBurritos]

I've always wondered how Cobus did this. Thanks :D
