Cleaner than sibelius

[@realvdot]

Best percussion ensemble out there. People talk about snarelines quads and basses, but this is what really matters. Putting it all together in an ensemble. Brilliant as always

[@coasternut88]

Agreed!! Team Rennick redefines *Marching Percussion*! Truly a Standard all Their Own!

[@Texray1]

Gorgeous snare tuning. No cardboard was harmed in the making of this video.

[@JacobHalfman]

Damn, didn't even realize the timpanist was playing a walking bassline. Impressive.

[@FenceHorse]

Or that the front ensemble is playing the ride cymbal part in one hand and the mallet part in the other!

[@nobleteamftw]

Thanks dude!

[@chrisnguyen1186]

They could just field a drum set but it's not SCV style

[@loganrussell3064]

They did the same thing with Phantom in 2009 but everyone hated that jazz segment for some reason 😒 I thought it was really well written

[@PerfectlyNormalHumanBeing]

@@nobleteamftw6 years later and you still absolutely crushed it, great work :)

[@nathanreno-winters8732]

I think we can all agree that 8:22-8:45 is INCREDIBLE.

[@raneyboy9937]

Scott McCoy Same!

[@Tom70s]

I have been around drum corps since 1970, and this is the biggest "WOW" I can give. This is the best I have ever heard, and I have heard them all. Writing, performance, it is all there. That said, there have been so many greats over the past 50 years, all making the activity what it is today. Congrats Mr. Rennick.

[@yungtwiz]

Almost forgot to watch this today

[@luckystiff5695]

Currently my third-favorite favorite perc line of all time, second being SCV '98 and first being SCV '04

[@l0xx79]

I did not realize that was someone on theremin. Great job!

[@nehemiahboscia7056]

What is the remin?

[@gavin_bigred]

@@nehemiahboscia7056 theremin* look up a video they are cool

[@robertkoh3539]

these videos are perfectly edited

[@Iplayquad]

5:35 that concert bass drum player was having fun

[@joelamattina74]

KILLIN IT - Best drumline of 2017 by far. Can't wait for 2018!

[@HypeTheClean]

Soooo... 0:26 - 0:37 is pretty much summed up with "FIRE, FIRE, FIRE, FIRE, FIRE" Wooooo!

[@raneyboy9937]

I think 0:00-12:35 is summed up like that

[@wyatthatch4031]

Been waiting for this for a while, love this show!

[@RickCogley]

Lordy, what a tour de force. Slammin'. Great writing and playing. And the video and sound production is off the charts.

[@shatteredbroadcast]

The camera work on this perplexes me at times, like, it looks like there should be a drone or cameraman in a shot but they just disappear

[@DrumlineApps]

nicely done! - from the writing to the playing to the video editing... beautiful stuff!

[@superninja2202]

God damn.

[@FelixTruvere]

Wish the video crew had enough knowledge to know to Video the tympani player playing that part at 3 minutes. Would have really loved to see how he operated the pedal in that spot.

[@kevinlopezruiz874]

Wish it showed more cymbals... otherwise AMAZING!!!

[@skaynekurtis]

Just incredible - giving us all the angles & showing the stick flare a lot of videos from last year didn't capture - it's an "11"!! This more perfectly expresses my admiration for Rennick's '17 SCV crew: FF to 3:15 kzbin.info/www/bejne/eGXPi5Z7jpmhf6s

[@scv1981]

Fred would have been so impressed...Go Jonz!

[@swfan1004]

Earlier than usual I see

[@mac18706]

Holy crap!

[@mac18706]

Superb tuning as well as the writing.

[@jeffmansfield914]

What was with the cymbals being super disciplined and tight after the last note, then cymbal dude on the sideline is just letting his mess sway in the breeze?

[@lukeparsons4965]

Jeff Mansfield the cymbal play in the front was part of the pit, so he doesn’t have to move in time.

[@jeffmansfield914]

Luke Parsons I’m not talking about moving in time. I’m talking about when the performance is over after the last note, the entire group is stoic and still like a tight military group at attention, but the cymbal guy in the pit is just fidgeting his cymbals back and forth.

[@lukeparsons4965]

Jeff Mansfield I know, I worded that really bad, he’s in a different style because of that, he can essentially move however he wants most of the time, as long as he’s plays all the notes correctly and in time with uniform technique as to the rest of the pit, as long as it’s not distracting or taking away from the show.

[@jeffmansfield914]

Luke Parsons I marched percussion for several years and have followed DCI and percussion organizations for decades. I’m familiar with the differences between the pit and the battery in terms of movement. Yes, during the performance, the players in the pit have more freedom to move around than the battery, which needs to look uniform. However, when the performance ended, all other players, including members of the pit, came back to motionless attention... except for the one guy flopping his cymbals like he can’t stand still for a moment. He is the only thing moving and it was distracting and took away from the otherwise very tight and disciplined show. Did it ruin the performance? No. Was it a big deal? No. But, it was noticeable and distracting in that he stood out by moving at a time when everyone else had frozen at the end of the show.

[@Mediocre_Music]

@@jeffmansfield914 Super late, but this run could have very well been edited from many runs put together, and maybe the closer run that ended up in the video sounded the best, but had that little hiccup so they let it slide. Food for thought

[@RADZADproductions]

I don’t know how the tune their drums. But I’d do anything to find out.

[@EthanCowburn]

drum key. that'll be 1 million dollars.

[@programmedwrong3795]

Ethan Cowburn Also, turn clockwise. $2mil

[@enlighken2656]

anybody know why the snares harnesses are painted differently? there’s less white as you go left to right

[@jwillis9499]

Christ, almighty!!!

[@alexandercarroll4045]

2:39

[@snakestew3848]

Why tf is the tenor line throwing gang signs?

[@keenman0403]

Any updates on the 2018 one?

[@pmillergroove1]

5:24-5:49....SHEEEEEEESH!!!! I need the standstill from 2018!!!!

[@krisluna32]

Just dropped the 2018 one today

[@nzane1216]

Matt Kossick

[@FelixTruvere]

Great visual clarity on the video. I just wish the SOUND-production was mixed with more high-mids. Lows are really drowning out the articulations. It’s much too filtered of mids. This is a DRUM CORPS video. Not a rap song.

[@azariahodede9591]

what’s the instrument at 4:29

[@gdadhd4775]

theremin

[@averyrobinson4666]

4:35 wtf is that and why do I want it

[@willcrowder2250]

Avery Robinson it’s a theremin

[@laptopstylelife7050]

Im glad im not the only one
