Here is another sneak preview of the drums in the forthcoming iGenesis video - the 'In The Cage' medley taken from Genesis' 1986 Tour. This excerpt is the outrageous and aptly named 'Apocalypse in 9/8'. Another split screen video and me trying to play both Phil and Chester's parts :-)
I have tried very hard in this video to play both the drum parts as accurately as possible. It is however only my interpretation of what the hell is going on - this is a very complex few minutes!
For my part I am very proud of this - I think this is far more accurate than my previous two videos featuring this iconic moment in rock history. My previous attempts at this had me trying to play both drum parts simultaneously. This is the first time I have tried to break down the two separate drum parts - and it was not easy to do! Once my ears figured out what the hell was going on, I then had to get my brain to tell my limbs to actually play it!!!!
I hope you are still enjoying the new drum sounds. 'Phil' is on a Gretsch and 'Chester' is on a Premier. Try and listen on headphones or big speakers for the full panning effect! I have had some fun in Logic and even more fun on iMovie doing this video - man!
I had a lot of problems with getting this video uploaded onto YouTube, without the audio and video going out of synch. This one seems to be almost ok though, so I'lll live with it. It does seem a bit jerky at times though :-(
Hope you enjoy, and above all HAPPY CHRISTMAS TO YOU ALL!
