Hi everyone! This is my cover of System of a Down's Cigaro, a fun energetic song from their Mezmerize album. I had a giant brainfart near the end where I totally forgot how to play that part, it is what it is.
All recorded in one take with two cameras.
I don't learn songs note by note, obviously - I usually play them a couple times to learn the general flow of the song, and then just improvise along the way.
Gear used here, in case anyone is interested:
- Pearl Masters MMP drums in Diamond Burst finish (2x22”, 8”, 10”, 12”, 14”, 16”)
- Pearl Masters MMP Redline series snare (14”x6.5”)
- Roland cymbals (4x14” crashes, 16” ride, 12” hihats and a 10” splash) and triggers (2x RT-30K, 6x RT-30H)
- Pearl Mimic Pro drum module
- Pearl hardware (ICON rack, cymbal arms, tom arms and hihat- and snare stands)
- Axis A Longboard pedals
