Venetian Snares - Szerencsétlen Drum Cover By Yogev Gabay

[@cablevamp3163]

Aaron Funk himself said in a magazine that he saw this and said it was the most accurate drum cover of any of his songs. So the original composer even agrees that this is spot on.

[@YogevGabay]

Cable Vamp really?! Damn! Do you happen to have a pic of that?

[@cablevamp3163]

Yogev Gabay yeah it’s on my 1TB HDD so I’ll look for it. But yeah I saw this cover and was at Guitar Center in the Synthesizer section and you know how they had all those magazines well Electronic Musician interviewed Aaron on what he thinks about music and who’s influenced him and then was asked if anyone’s covered his songs and you and Mike Glozier were mentioned and he went on saying that he’s seen many covers but you and Mike were the only ones to hit every note precisely spot on. He of course used his silly wording because it is Aaron Funk lol.

[@YogevGabay]

Cable Vamp holy shit that is so coollllll can I ask you to send it to me?

[@YogevGabay]

Oh yeah man, I'm leaving on Friday and I'm SO stocked! It's gonna be epic.

[@CaalamusTube]

@@YogevGabay not for nothing, just trying to help... it's "stoked". Stocked means that the shelves are full :] Like I said, not trying to be a jerk. Just trying to help. Great Drumming :D

[@obscuredood]

8 years later this still goes hard

[@YogevGabay]

Thanks !!

[@isaaccharamuga3698]

I think it's absolutely amazing that after he just fucking broke the sound barrier, playing with inhuman accuracy for 4 minutes straight, he fucked up his stick trick at the end.

[@SamChaneyProductions]

There are many Aphex Twin / Venitian Snares / DnB break-beat drum covers in the wide world of KZbin, but this if by far the cleanest, most accurate, confident and well-shot/recorded I have ever seen. Congratulations!

[@aronbuch4275]

+Sam Chaney this one is basically perfect, but the gentleman cover by mikeglozier is insane as well

[@lars38010]

If you want to know this kind of music that has those weird time signatures. It`s called: Breakcore.

[@YogevGabay]

Aaaaaaand, with the latest replay ever, thanks!

[@curly_]

I like the mike glozier ones too ❤

[@borysboryck6579]

Nearly 10 years and this is still the best drum cover of VS's deranged music.

[@YogevGabay]

And almost 20 years later, that album is still one of the best albums ever produced

[@DavidBagshaw]

Not only precise, but this has a confidence and 'feel' that drives the whole performance.

[@YogevGabay]

Maaaan, thanks a lot!

[@wolfgang4468]

It is absolutely beyond me how you could learn and play this incredible amount of non-regular notes. Hats off!!!

[@YogevGabay]

Thanks man it was INTENSE for sure! Things you do when school is boring.

[@jonasblom127]

This is inhuman! Unfathomable! The rhytmic patterns are ridoculously complex and should be impossible to immitate with such accuracy. I am in absolute awe.

[@YogevGabay]

Ohhhh thanks man! Glad you've liked it

[@satchmothewerewolf]

This is STILL 100% my favourite drum cover ever!

[@YogevGabay]

Ahhhhhh thanks man!

[@sc7597]

Those snares sound wonderful!

[@ripbooboo8563]

I love the addition of multiple snares. V-snares loves him some snares with multiple tones.

[@thesierrasillustrator5130]

I was given a drum set at the age of four/five. Didn’t pick it back up until high school in the 1990’s, and have played in many bands since. My brother introduced me to VSnares in 2000, and I became obsessed. I created the artwork for the album, “My So Called Life”. All that being said, I am in absolute AWE of your skills and talent with this performance!!!! You are an inspiration to myself and to drummers everywhere. I’m grateful to have found you in this small world we inhabit through the VSnares-connection!

[@YogevGabay]

OHHHHHHHHH man thanks so much !!!! I LOVE Vsnares and this album specifically has been a long time favorite. I think I'm gonna work on another track from there, i feel like it's time. Stoked you like it !!

[@dema5747]

here on my weekly rewatch, this is such a good cover!

[@fishslappr]

ive been watching this in the background, on a playlist on autoplay. It was only at 3:01 i realised this was real acoustic drums Bravo!

[@YogevGabay]

Thankssss

[@torley]

To get all that right, only to drop the stick at the end - but honestly, that was a spark of humanity and made everything preceding it better. Thanks for this labor of love masterpiece, you're amazing!

[@YogevGabay]

Ohhhhhh thanks !

[@thirdmill]

What a vulgar display of power! Inspiring!

[@trialstar]

Shut up and take my Vinnie Paul!

[@ChuckRuledTheWorld]

Just got 'that intro of the art of dying' in my recommendations, saw it, got interested, checked out your channel for more, found this, got really impressed, immediately subscribed. Keep up the good work, you're a great drummer and music theorist!

[@YogevGabay]

THanks a lot !!

[@WhirlwindDrums]

I envy any drummer who can cover venetian snares

[@YogevGabay]

This was very very hard work indeed. Thanks!

[@dahmerbundy8704]

@@YogevGabay how long it took you to learn it?

[@djnekroman]

I like when I watch a video for (what I think is) the first time ever... Go to click the "like" button, and discover that I've already "liked" it. Lol. Don't remember how long ago I saw this, but it's still mind-blowing!

[@YogevGabay]

HAHAHHA best

[@daffydaydone]

Could we get a track with just your drums??? that would be amazing to hear.

[@narcspector]

Agreed

[@theokingshango]

and rip

[@SlyHikari03]

Yup

[@matthewconte]

You definitely win the "human vsnares rendition" contest in terms of getting the groove of the track. Amazing work! There are other videos on youtube of drummers attempting vsnares tracks but i think you got to the heart of it the best.

[@matthewconte]

Also, your victory pose at 4:08 is gold.

[@crackthefoundation_]

I love how he didn't catch the drumstick at the end lol all that immense precision

[@YogevGabay]

#fail hahahah

[@crackthefoundation_]

@@YogevGabay You prove that stick tricks don't prove anything haha. you should hit Vsnares up on instagram and ask him about live drumming if you haven't!

[@YogevGabay]

@@crackthefoundation_ oh man, you're right! That can be sick! And the most time consuming thing I'd ever do :-)

[@adsr3870]

A whole exposition about clipping. AND a drum cover of one of my fav Venetian tracks. My dude, you have just become one of my top YT channels to follow! Keep it up!

[@stuartrae4612]

This is genuinely one of the most impressive feats of drumming i have ever seen. Ive been binging your Meshuggah videos and found this. This is absolutely astonishing hahahah 10/10

[@notmusics]

I love how humanizing the end of the video is

[@apuapaeae]

A testament of skill.

I come back to this every time I just want to feel blown away

[@YogevGabay]

[@YogevGabay]

Thanks a lot !!

[@kaijohansson3379]

i´ve been watching this way too often. definitely not something you play after a six pack and a couple of spliffs. much respect.

Found this video thanks to Monsieur Funk himself! I'll definitely becoming back to this video from time to time. Awesome job.

[@somebodysnobody]

I never get bored of this. And as much as I enjoy Venetian snares, I really enjoy this version for the sheer visual entertainment.

[@YogevGabay]

Thanks a lot mira!

[@somebodysnobody]

@@YogevGabay It would be an absolute pleasure to have an entire album of your renditions of similar styled music. Or even better, an album of your own creations in a similar fashion of genre. I would play it 24/7. In all honesty. Would you possibly have interest in Collaboration?

[@YogevGabay]

@@somebodysnobody Oh man, that would take me sooo looonngggggggg but yeah, that's something I really wanna do! What do you play?

[@somebodysnobody]

@@YogevGabay well over an amount of two decades I have been using vocal expression, and manipulating through various hardware equipment. But, recently via means of software and technological computer programs. I enjoy the infinite variables the vocals can produce. I always felt the need for addition of percussion would really open up the possibilities.

[@Shakti3o0o]

Wow, that was absolutely flawless! I couldn't tell you how many times I've listened to that track, and apart from the roll before the muted cymbals every single hit was right on target. Amazing

[@YogevGabay]

Oh man thanks!

[@tonythrowaway3327]

pretty sick how complex just a single vsnares track is. some years he released 3 LP's lol.

[@YellowChoklit]

sometimes more

[@RedNosePitbullMT45]

its all about renoise, once u crack the code its not only fun to make beats like this its effortless almost, get into the program get some good amen break samples , go into sampler mode cut that shit up, then rearrange in the tracker. you can do alot with that program its really really groovy, add in a drum machine to break up the monotony and boom your golden

[@Gabriel-mw5ro]

@@RedNosePitbullMT45 Can you elaborate? As far as I could tell Renoise is simply another DAW. Are you implying it's easier to create breakbeats on it?

[@RedNosePitbullMT45]

@@Gabriel-mw5ro renoise has a very cool tracker or "piano roll" as its somtimes called. it has feature which is really helpful and cool for jungle electroinc music. in its sampler you can splice up asample of say a 20 second drum clip. it then auto maps all those splices onto your keyboard so you can easily enter specific keys in your tracker that let triggers different parts of the sample. if you get really good ay understanding rhythm of the genre you can, you can triger all those breaks and it will seamlessly playback to you. its a little hard to describe in words but thats the best i can describe how it works. just alot of room for customization and effects and treatments also . just the way renoise is setup makes alot of other trackers and drum machines obselete just how easy the workflow can be . but i like to combine those chopped up samples and put into my mpc and i also use pro tools in combo with renoise. but its all good shit.
