Cobus Potgieter


Anyone seen his work on Youtube?! - Crazy good drummer. I think he kinda sold out a little bit on most of his newer stuff (Since he's been sponsored) But all of his old **** is awesome!

Maybe I'm Idolizing, but I think what he does is incredibly creative.

Re: Cobus Potgieter


ya, he is good. im not too big a fan because he doesnt play the music i like. the A7X covers are pretty good. anyway, he is creative, but i think he overdoes it quite often. most of the time i think the originals are better.

Yeah Butter I feel the same way about his music. I think he's good, but I don't like the music he plays, for the most part. Some of it's good.

Iīve seen some of his videos, I donīt like the music he plays but as a drummer he is good, on the other hand, I donīt like the way he plays, I mean he is good and everything but he is just trying to be to fancy and always showing off, but those kind of drummer are succesful too. I think we can learn from everybody and create our own style.

See, I'm in agreement that he overplays some things, but I also think most of it's pretty creative, and quite awesome.

Re: Cobus Potgieter


i really like most of his covers. a lot of my inspiration has come from stuff he plays. however i would love to see more variety of music. he basically stays on the pop side of music. i would love to also see some fancy double bass work.

the day he covers "bleed" by meshuggah and anything with A LOT of blast beats is the day that i crap in my pants.
