Evan, although you may not have won the contest, you won in my heart...because you were the most proffesional musishen to enter the contest. But seriously I love what you did with your cover. Keep doing what you do, good sir.
You are amazing! You are by far my favorite entry for the contest. I love that you used the fans in your vibraphone and made it really original. Great job! :D
I have watched so many entries to Clara's contest, and I have to say - yours is my favourite. I know how hard it is to perfect all the notes on a xylophone (without stuffing up and accidentally hitting the wrong notes) so I commend you for that, and you played with double mallets too! You're great.
That was amazing! Great job! I'm a mallet percussionist myself, and I had to teach myself just about everything. I didn't succeed with teaching myself marimba using four mallets though. Teach me? =D
I swear I have just seen about over 30 videos of this cover contest, and all of them we're honestly preetty crappy..
But as soon as I stumbled upon your video, I knew you have got to win. :)
Your video is great! It has a sweet, cute, bubbly, touching feeling. It's soothing and heartwarming, and may I say VERY professional. Even though there's no singing in yours, I think it's perfect the way it is. Very, very well done.
Good luck, and I hope you win. You have my vote. :)
awww dude you got this contest in the bag lol you're gonna love clara dude she's so funny and cute (as you can already tell) I met her when she played the free show at UCR and there was no awkward moment with her she's a freakin blast to hang out with
@danielorp Yeah xylophone is pretty high in frequency, vibraphone is the metallic looking instrument you see in the video, and it has a softer sound, same with marimba which is usually made out of rosewood :)
@Fun4est hmmm, i really like the vibraphone sound. I saw a perfomance here on youtube, that a guy was playing the whole song on a vibraphone, it's pretty amazing! thanks for the explanation ^^
what scool do u go too? i want to b a proffesional musishen to some day to and i want to go whereever u go because this is so cool and i want to do it to bro!
and how did u get all ur sticks and xylophones and stuff? i looked on altavista and they cost like a ton bro! haha!
i no your gonna anser fast cuz u seem like ur a cool dude. maybe we can jam sometime? i play my jembe like almost every day so im getting really good
ahhhh~~ MAD LOVE THIS! You're awesomeeeee! :)

The alto xylophone had a lot of sustain which kind of mixed all the notes together... But otherwise, everything else was really fantastic.
