Whitechapel - Whorship the digital Age Drum Cover by David Diepold скачать видео бесплатно

Hello everyone!

This is a cover version of ‘Worship the digital Age' by Whitechapel.

I really dig their sound and “in your face” songs and I think Ben Harclerode was just a great enrichment for the band.

I didn’t spend too much time on learning this song, so it’s not really a note-for-note cover, but still pretty close to the original. I tracked this song two times: the first version right after I did a Nile and Cattle Decapitation song (which I will release later) and the second version the day after and you can tell by the fact that I’m wearing something different, that I chose the second version. I’ve never heard that clear, how big the differences can be in terms of your dais condition. But I guess that’s just normal…

Very special thanks to my buddies Bartol and Reins from bazn sounds & records, Sebastian from DreamCatch Audio!!!

I also want to thank Dieter (and everyone who's involved) from Murat Diril Cymbals for always supporting me the best possible way - THANK YOU!

Another special thanks goes out to the local Arts- and Music-School in my hometown (Deutschlandsberg) where I recorded everything. It’s actually the concert hall where I had my first “concerts” as a young student and so it just felt great to come back after more than 15 years.

As a kid I never understood how important the environment you’re drumming in is for your wellbeing and of course for your sound. And this big wooden room, whit all its warmth just feels and sounds absolutely incredible!

Which leads to the next point:

Except for the bass drum and (not even half) of the snare drum, all the drum sounds are natural and as pure as possible. We spend a lot of time to set everything up. I also switched sticks – from regular 5a to 3a to get more power, but not by necessarily swinging the stick higher or hitting any harder but because of the shape of the stick.

For the bass I used a standard sample from the Steven Slate foundry and for the snare I mixed signals (about two thirds natural sound with eq, comp and just a little verb; and one third is again a standard snare from the Steven Slate foundry. I had to pitch the sound of the sample, so it would match my real snare and it’s just for the attack during all the blast beats.)

Furthermore I used

Dixon MBS shells (2x22", 8", 10", 12", 13", 16", 18")

p.d.p. Limited Edition 20ply Snare with Die Cast Hoops (14"x8")

Axis A Longboards
