"360" by Quey Percussion Duo (Gene Koshinski and Tim Broscious)

[@faidonoftheditoo]

can't imagine how this is notated

[@vahan-sahakyan]

Literally :)

[@GGman2019]

it will be easier reading dr notes

[@steverman2312]

Its regular percussion music, but written in hieroglyphs

[@dubbadan1]

"play dragon yawning sound here..."

[@MontoyaMatrix]

I also noticed that there was very overt usage of stereo. Like a back and forth kind of thing at time. Which is interesting because the composer has to be using two mics for this, and is consciously considering this as part of the recorded piece. Even if one calls this piece fragmented, it's still quite composed.

[@o7k4vokb0ksp5n2]

*finishes performing* Me: "Wow, that was amazing. What's the name of that song?" "I was just checking the instruments."

[@jwstout007]

When the drum line doesn’t like you & your friend’s battle ideas, you make your own band.

[@2s7a2m7]

it's like the most intricate secret handshake

[@DillonMcSwain]

You have some really innovative ideas

[@genekoshinskimusic]

Hey thanks!

[@scourtheearth]

the calando between 2:47 and 3:10 is... exquisitely performed

[@CaseyCangelosi]

I've watched this a few times, but now with my GOOD headphones. Man, sounds freaking excellent.

[@genekoshinskimusic]

Thanks buddy!

[@hakonsoreide]

Wow! Every now and then KZbin's recommended videos get it just spot on. That was an absolutely amazing piece, outstanding performance, and also kudos to the sound engineer for the perfectly executed recording. It sounds great on speakers and even better on headphones with the wide stereo image. I'm definitely sharing that, and subscribing so I can see what else you guys are up to.

[@lemko1983]

I am lost for words. Just absolutely amazing skill and beautiful to listen to too.

[@jeffcornelius215]

So fun and interesting and well played.

[@laurenstephens4018]

I played this on my senior recital at university. Easily one of the most complex and challenging things I have ever played

[@marksmith7737]

"Why do I always gotta be the up-beat?! ☹"

[@Dsullivann]

"IT WAS MY IDEA I GET THE DOWNBEAT"

[@sillysauske1072]

"No, it was MY IDEA. So I get to call dibs on the DOWN BEAT"

[@clenng]

STOP NOBODY LIKE IT IT'S PERFECT

[@MannOfTheHill345]

Was it at 360 likes when you made this comment?

[@clenng]

Chris Hillmann honestly... i dont remember 😅. What a good reason to rewatch the piece and appreciate it though

[@herberar]

Great performance!!! I can't imagine how many hours they have rehersed to play this piece !!!

[@brahmsabraham4107]

Oddly satisfying, unique but brilliant, its like you are inside Jupiter's hurricanes, or like how water droplets are falling down, the echoes are bouncing through and throughout your ears that made your head goes completely hypnotized by it sounds.

[@aidencoxmusicguy5097]

Brahms Abraham woah trippy

[@isakpersson5211]

This is awesome! I am going to be stealing some of those sounds!

[@Dsullivann]

Very unique and creative! Great job guys. 🤟🤟

[@lacogonzalez]

Magnificent percussions !!!

[@pasveerliefhebber]

WOW ! what a fantastic piece of music ! I LOVE IT !! good job !

[@pasveerliefhebber]

2:37 this part is making me dancing ! COOL part !

[@Saint-Graal]

Très créatif et super performance! Wow!

[@susanmeertens606]

Ohhh guys! This is epic! :D Will be revisiting some now and then or maybe even just play on repeat to hear and learn by heart ;'D

[@NicleT]

Splendide pièce exécutée avec perfection!!

[@genewilliams617]

Very clever. Very listenable!

[@emakmpos]

Very nice! And a very musical composition ...

[@aaronrios6470]

I can hear some Steve Reich influence! Beautiful piece!

[@stevecarter8810]

This has to be the only forum in classical music where that gold sparkle finish is ok on a tom shell

[@Dewald1984]

Love it!! Well done gents.

[@Mug4ina_alexii]

Гармония - основа СМЫСЛА!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@jimcallahan3991]

Nice job, guys. Fun to watch!

[@jawslego123]

can't wait to buy this

[@nanaandbump.]

Just discovered you, very cool stuff! Great playing and super creative. Keep on making new stuff!

[@leo47443]

Fantastici.

[@davidbulger3716]

Wow! Reading that score must be like trying to read chicken tracks.

[@OrisStories]

Phenomenal!

[@mistererq1819]

Bravo!!

[@naccilifebilla7314]

incredibile!

[@brebis2956]

Belle performance - bravo

[@audicoes]

Bravi!

[@chezz.1]

When Gene asks to borrow your kit... Yeah sure what do you need? Just the floor tom shell, bass drum and snare. Oh just the floor, kick and snare, sure. Don't scratch it though. The skins will be fine.

[@GreatBowlsAfire]

Genius

[@taro_momo]

えぐすぎる なんともいえん快感…もっかいスティック握るか

[@0eroPositivo]

It's very original y would like listen another composition with that hollow drum.

[@SaxaphoneMan42]

Aside from this being awesome as all hell, my favorite part is percussionists pretending to read music.

[@davidsynge7030]

I'm really curious... would the likes of Autechre and Aphex Twin be influences on your work? I've not heard much like this before and those are the closest neighbours I can think of to the way your music ebbs and flows, almost following rhythmic patterns like trains of thought and letting them drift in and out of focus... are your roots purely classical or is there some electronica in there, too?

[@genekoshinskimusic]

Hi David - interesting...we definitely have a wide arrange of musical interests and influences, but probably not specifically those groups you mentioned. Pop, electronic, sure...I can see that.

[@JamesDGardner]

David Cantan this totally sounds a lot like some Aphex twin. very good assessment.

[@americanpercussioninstruments]

GREAT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

[@horaciogianello5282]

¡AMAZING!!!

[@senan0302]

0:30 ここのキメカッコ良すぎわろた

[@Nullllus]

2 guys 1 drum

[@Anazble]

I love this piece. Great work! ps. I am getting an ASMR-like itch from listening, anyone else?

[@underduckbro]

Anazble same here! I’d love to fall asleep to this

[@imjaytho]

How many drums did they have to go through to find the one with the right sound? 😂😂

[@steverman2312]

I wanna see someone try and transcribe this

[@chsemaphor]

Wow.

[@yep-that-happened]

What is being drawn across the snare head at 3:48?

[@mwiz100]

It looks like a rubber mallet (probably soft) normally used for xylophones or similar instruments.

[@keegansmith6327]

It's a superball mallet. It's kinda like a mallet with a bouncy ball on the tip. When rubbed against some surfaces of drums or cymbals, it can lead to some pretty weird sounds.

[@МихаилЖиляков-ф5ъ]

omg I have found the origin of Civilization 3's soundtracks

[@memassironi]

que maestro

[@ZuLLeT]

subscribed this is awesome. more werid shit please. SO GOOD!

[@T_WTX]

Great stuff, guys! Do I hear some Varese in there?

[@sadredinesmaily8283]

خیلی خوب بود it was Great i can hear it several time wiithout any stoping.

[@marcusblackfellow2850]

Is it harder to follow than to lead when doing percussion splits? Or is the person 'following' (say, one sixteenth behind) just doing their own thing maintaining their own sense of meter where they don't see themselves as operating in between the beats? If the latter, I guess the notation would compensate for the offset? I'm probably thinking about this in too simplistic a light given I'm just a strings player.

[@jamessatterfield4625]

As a friend of mine said, it's easy if you count (we posted the quote in our band room)

[@cg7240]

Your comment didn't make too much sense. But the upbeats (in between beats) are much harder to play than the downbeats.

[@ghdesign_]

Hey Gene! Me and my friend just got this awesome piece, and wanted to know how you personally work through it, both as a group and individually. Since a lot of the duet consists of rhythms split between players, what do you think is the best way to tackle this in initial practice?

[@genekoshinskimusic]

Thanks! We always practice and rehearse together, from the beginning. We might spend an initial session individually to work out any major logistics, but then immediately work on the piece as a group. This way the piece always exists as a whole and never two different parts. Work slow and understand the composite from the beginning, which will require a lot of compromise from both parties. Record your sessions a lot and listen together. Best of luck!

[@ghdesign_]

Gene Koshinski thanks! And one more question.. how did you get the drum shell to stay secure to the cymbal stand? Ours keeps rotating around when we try to do the circular motions

[@jixaw9383]

1:07, 00:44

[@jordankillian9023]

What the ice says before it comes out of my fridge

[@85ddrummer]

JordanK illian why do you keep ice in a fridge and not a freezer?

[@jordankillian9023]

85ddrummer well it’s in the freezer part of my fridge. But I just call the whole thing the fridge

[@gottardopaganin2772]

Geniale

[@peyton.percussion]

what kind of snare drum is Tim performing on?

[@GoAndPractice]

Pearl M1040 "Sopranino" snare. 4x10" maple shell w/ no re-rings... I believe they're discontinued but probably not too hard to find one used or make on your own.

[@ghdesign_]

Hey Gene, just posted a video of my friend and I performing this duet! I'd love if you could check it out! Thank you for writing such a cool piece of music!

[@genekoshinskimusic]

I'll check it out - thanks for playing it!!

[@schnauzerloversmom]

Dang!

[@tulleyj3]

Neat

[@frankalfar]

How is the circular part annotated?

[@flparg2]

O

[@tonygagnon8580]

epico

[@willtato8778]

I honestly can't imagine myself listening to this on my way home... It's impressive nonetheless though.

[@onurertemmusic]

💀💀💀💜💜💜

[@ちょろんぼがとぅー]

ちなみに楽譜てどんな風に書かれてあるんですかね

[@marcio62091]

Vedere un percussionista leggere lo spartito deprime molto

[@imjaytho]

For some reason I wanna see TwoSet react to this 😭😭😭😭

[@bigbowlowrong4694]

tabs pls

[@ET2carbon]

Why would you video a 180° camera location flip? So jarring! And I'm paying attention to the audio not the video. Can't imagine what a videographer would think

[@olivecool]

???????? hhhoooh ho ho h hoqqq how????!!?

[@aalegge]

These guys have too much freehand on their times

[@sirnubenegra]

Danny Carey played it better

[@yucatansuckaman5726]

LAAAAME!

[@ampledaps199]

Bunch of nonsense
