This sounds like off-brand MarioKart music, in the BEST way!

[@pianopride212]

We don't get enough marimba pieces that groove like this. I love it.

I've been a drummer for 7 years and every time I visit your channel it just makes me want to run to the nearest marimba and learn four-mallet.

[@taemonge3835]

So good. Reminds me of an anime ED

[@danielbutcher5836]

Deceptively challenging at first glance - I really enjoyed this performance!

[@stevenhernandez9074]

Hello Adam, I am a 6th grade student and I have been very intrigued by your videos but I was wondering how long do your vic firth mallets last or any kind of mallet in particular last if used daily by you. Hope you respond and I love your music! P.S my dog Thor enjoys your music as well and he falls asleep and occasionally dance to your music.

[@Adi_Ivgi]

Absolutely flawless

[@robbyhale4756]

As a marimba player myself this sounds awesome good job

[@jannike6149]

Hey Adam, love the music and videos, really cool to see a lot more people in to tuned percussion 👍😊 Any chance you could play this piece on a 4.3 Octave Marimba (and Vibraphone of course)? Thanks in advance 🤗

[@AdamTanPercussion]

Jannik E Hey man! The piece is written for 4.3 octave marimba already :) I am just playing it on a 5.

[@jannike6149]

@@AdamTanPercussion 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️ just watched the cideo again and saw it in the Title😂😂😂 many thanks anyway didn't expect you to answer, Greetings from the other side of the planet, Copenhagen Denmark😁

[@joeysmith04622]

Pls review that 6 octave marimba you mentioned on Instagram or am I being an idiot and it was someone else who mentioned it

[@AdamTanPercussion]

Joey Smith Hahaha it was me, but yes only if they send that massive thing to me

[@MarimbaMaurice]

You have outdone yourself with this piece again, Adam. It's absolutely amazing 😍

Great melody. Thank you.

[@cannolivibraphone]

I love this so much! I know people that get excited for the release of movies and video games, but I get excited for the release of your pieces! Ever since Path, I came home from school every day after you announced Moon, and then Lotus, and now Flying Colours, and would check to see if they were out yet because I really love your music! Keep composing man!

[@cannolivibraphone]

And thanks for looking out for the 4.3 octaves!

[@AdamTanPercussion]

David Brown Hey thanks so much man! Hoping to release a few more this year. And of course I love 4.3 octave haha

[@aiden1367]

Are you going to PASIC this year?

[@AdamTanPercussion]

aiden Most likely yes... haven’t planned it yet though

[@jakemielke1231]

Would this fit on a 4 octave marimba, or not?

[@SWilla00946]

You could rearrange some chords but if you're just reading off the page then no it wouldn't

[@joeysmith04622]

Can this be on 4.3 octave marimba

[@okey7261]

Yes it can And it already says Vibraphone + 4.3 Octave Marimba in the thumbnail.

[@joeysmith04622]

Okey don’t judge me I was very tired while listening to it

[@jeremyjacobus7009]

Hey Adam!, My name is Jeremy Jacobus. I've previously commented on the piece you wrote "we are heroes". My section leader wants to play the vibraphone part and asked me to play marimba. I am beyond excited to start practicing another one of your pieces. Any tips or things to think about for starting to work on this piece? Thank you for posting such amazing content and composing these amazing works!

[@SuperCajun97]

world....stars**

[@lucrosier9384]

Hi Where's is possible to have the notes of the piece

[@CounciloftheRadical]

This is the exact opposite of Catching Shadows.

[@marwanone8911]

Hi! I'm 16 y.o , i'm percussionist for 10 years now and i've played with 4 mallet since 2015 , my level is not ... Good enough ! what do you advise me to work on the technique ? I want to play like you haha ​​!!!

[@legoreemv]

Try to improve mallet independence. Try to move one mallet while focusing on keeping the other mallet in the same hand still. It can help to hold the head of one mallet in the other hand to keep it locked in one spot in space. This can help get you used to what it feels like to move the mallets correctly. Slowly start to let go of the still mallet, focusing on it to make sure it stays still. Try with both hands and eventually start to alternate (between mallets 1 & 2 and between mallets 3 & 4.) Try this exercise with all intervals.

[@marwanone8911]
