    Default First actual drum cover - Keane

    [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lkulNE2Tovw"]YouTube - Keane - Bedshaped Drum Cover[/ame]

    Some Australian lad did a fantastic piano cover of Keane - Bedshaped, so I cracked out the ol' webcam and headset mic and set about recording the drums to it.

    My timing's a tad off in some places, partly because I can't really hear the track that well when playing in my room (inner-ear noise cancelling earphones inside Deben ear defenders, and I still sometimes lose track of the song ), and partly because I'm fairly sure the guy does change the timings ever so slightly now and then

    As you'd expect from a headset mic against a drumkit in a small room, the quality's pretty poor, but this is the vid I've been most happy with so far. Bass drum control seems to be considerably better than it usually is, but then now I've finished my exams I have nothing to do but drum until October, so with all the extra practice it should be!

    I just saw this thread, and I think you did a great job on the drums Leprechaun! I thought your cymbal work was tasteful, and accented the piano very well.

    Hey, I log in for the first time in ages, and there's more replies! Cheers guys!

    Russ - yeah, it was a piano cover of the original song in the first place, which was perfect 'cause I didn't then have to follow the song's original drums.
