Evan Chapman - "Your Hand In Mine" by Explosions In The Sky (Percussion Cover) *HD*

[jackopop17]

Play this song and the real full original version of this song together. It should stay on perfect timing :) or close to it! Try it everyone.

[killpostrocker]

It's just fucking brilliant! Seriously!

[thaatgirl1234]

interesting... :)

[electroluxe76]

Your work is really impressive & inspiring...

[thatstotallyrude]

PERFECT the filming in this one is amazing

[Commanaut]

I actually like this more than the original song.

[unforgettable903]

okay, who else really wants a xylophone now?

[bdlfilms]

Brilliant!

[wubrownie]

damn! forget the caliber of musicianship for a sec, that was beautifully shot and mixed too. How must that have taken to learn, record, edit, etc...!

[jappe1047]

You, my friend, made my day, my month, and my year. That's truly beautiful...

[TCFuture15]

I'm upset that only 22,000 people have seen such amazing work. 

[isaacgana]

Muito Bom o cover!

[LMAOlizz]

There needs to be more people like you in the world.

[sleepysheepy03]

Stunning sound.

[AcousticMusicianESWS]

the best thing about your videos is not purely the music, but also the emotion you put into filming a lot of these. you capture another side altogether of "art."

[onefortythirdfilms]

this is indescribable.

[MisunderstoodPC]

You give me inspiration to keep writing.

[katherinamarcela]

Fuckin awesome

[firstitgivith]

wow dude great great job. your a very talented percussionist

[jaivaramongolid]

Wow, I think this is by far the best cover I've heard of this song. Beautiful!

[mrcsmkt]

Great cover... Maybe you could do one for "First Breath After Coma"?! Haha

[TheReyesValdez94]

My percussion section is very interested in playing this song for an ensemble. Would you be interested and contacting me about the music? We all love Explosions In The Sky and were super excited when we found this video.

Thanks!

[un4w4re4lex]

I cannot get through this masterfully filmed EITS cover without experiencing utter joy and sorrow simultaneously. This video you have created for the rest of the world to enjoy (as silly as it sounds) makes tears run down my face due to the unique special combination of sound and visuals you have meshed together. It truly enables me to travel my mind to the saddest and happiest moments of my life all at once and for that I commend you on such an outstanding post. I even had to buy the shirt :)

[Rawr8987]

Most beautiful cover I've ever heard.

[EquivalentTrade]

Amazing video. Constructive comment though: what kind of mic are you using right now? I'm no sound expert, but the cajon sounded especially thin. I feel like this would benefit from some more....I dunno, "punch?

In any case, great job :D

[chese321]

This is all i want to do with my percussion career, it's just so pure

[afreijat]

looks like you need a loop machine LOL ;)

good work man. this is very impressive.

[OldOnliner]

Love it!

[gcozzarellim]

This is the best cover i've seen in my hole live, hear it like 25 times today, thank you soooo fucking much!

[McDog3]

Wooo, encore! Encore!

[SirJamestown]

Seeing this performed live would be one of the greatest things ever.

[TABjuggler]

I love this so much.  I've listened to this about 10 times since I saw this on EitS's fb page!

[oneNAMEaboveall]

WOW. That. Was. AMAZING! I would never even have THOUGHT about Your Hand In Mine being done any way but how Explosions in the Sky did it! Your cover is EPIC! I love EitS, and you definitely did them proud. Keep up the great work!

[glasstronic]

Stunning. Thanks for posting.

[AlbertChensingshire]

Some people are capable of the most amazing things. Thanks man.

[PrevailBcn]

What kind of Marimba is at 3:00? Amazing stuff

[abbeyroad1001]

@PrevailBcn im pretty sure, almost positive that they're vibes, not a marimba, but i could be wrong.

[cashflowization]

hey ysmnthelight, awsome rendition, and I share your enthusiasm, but in instrumental post rock all together. If Explosions In The Sky is the only post rock band youve listened to I recomend getting to know some of the others. Specifically, try '65daysofstatic - Radio protector' and 'The Sleep Design - These Dreams Haunt and Capture.' They are incredibly epic and if you can some how do a rendition of the latter, it would be beyond incredible. Especially the end! PEACE brah

[adamsni86]

Very cool

[artvandelay13]

Just incredible. A flawless and original cover of one of my favourite songs...

[jhugo1986]

Absolutely amazing. Perfectly done. A thumbs up isn't enough to rate this video. Awesome work.

[LukeVader77]

You flippin rock!

[Dudinsky]

Explosions In The Sky brought me here.

[glakeev]

spectacularly executed - measure for measure in both note and sentiment.

you've done something new with something timeless and familiar.

thank you.

[W11BO1]

I hope you realize EITS put this on their facebook :)

[OOAC133A]

Master class dude.

[ariley92]

I KNOW THIS DUDE! Yeah, he's this awesome in real life, too.

[sealedforproctection]

AWESOME!

[dorfpanmit]

This is about to get mass views and comments. Simply brilliant!

[psyshock918]

AMAZING

[byrondavidson]

Great job dude

[pjpedrosa]

You are amazing!

[PauseandClause]

That was beautiful man. Keep doin' what you're doin'.

[Fun4est]

DUDE EXPLOSIONS JUST POSTED THIS ON FACEBOOK!!!

[Jaxonbass]

Explosions In The Sky just posted this.

[CarolaChicaEspaciaL]

This is perfect for a baby... An space lullaby song :)

Good job...

[goobag123]

that's really effing impressive

[fanculoate]

the best music, the best cover, the greatest emotions. thank you!

[insanityuponlife666]

I'm still wearing that shirt. . .Thanks man. You really helped me open my eyes to TWLOHA and see that there's nothing sweeter out there, than to help and be helped :)

[iTz1993]

lol it makes me laugh but I know I should cry

[StockensReel]

its really cool but you play the marimba and vibe awkwardly just saying.. and you should try four mallets so you can play the chords correctly sometimes its inharmonious :P.. but other than that is was freaking awesome

[FakeSidewalks]

AHHH. <3

[WarRaptor0]

Hearing music like this makes me miss high school marching band and to pursue a career in music.

[machdiehl]

amazing.

[TheChrisCorgan]

the least i can do for you is like this video

[TheFunkyCaterpillar]

This is great! This would make a great doorbell!

[Bunji2k6]

We should clone you and make an Evan Chapman Ensemble, then you could do intimate concerts for all your fans.

[Rawr8987]

This is incredible. Thank you for sharing.

[amysamtx]

This totally made my night. As a percussionist and Explosions fan. Thanks

[rbdregs]

thats perfect 

[cane2477]

Amazing work bro! Thanks for sharing it!

[Julian20o8]

This is a first. Pretty cool man, keep it up!

[MainstreamMarimba]

I absolutely love the combination of cinematography and percussion...I actually am going to major in percussion performance and minor in cinematography ;D Great work man!

[chantty3]

Hermoso :)

[NiiickPitman]

My god, thinking about the amount of work this must've taken makes my brain hurt. A thousand bravos, this is fantastic.

[AmPpRoDuTiOnS]

This is amazing...

[ExclusiveGoodMusic]

Dun, den-dan.

Don, den-dan.

Dun, den-dan.

Don, don-don

[pamela10355]

Sean said if I was getting bored at work, I should bring up your stuff and listen. SO, I did and this is one of my all time favorite songs and you do a beautiful job with it!

[ExclusiveGoodMusic]

How much I love this video.

[PrakashGalle]

Congratulations ! Usually I am not a fan of cover versions especially with master pieces of music like that by Explosions in the Sky - but your video and music is an outstanding example and enjoyment to listen and watch as well !!!

[PaScal95xD]

this is the most beautiful thing i have ever heard

[ExclusiveGoodMusic]

How much I love Marimba - this is trully especial!

[whaa777]

This is amazing!!!

[Captainspoon]

brilliance. it sounds awesome layered over the original too!

[JabiCobain]

This is completely other-worldly. I'd never stop applauding.

[jordanswee]

[tswars]

got damm it o.o .... exellent job!! :B

[Malox91]

wow...

[BloggerMusicMan]

I love the vibe this has.  Great job.

[insanityuponlife666]

I know this is off topic, but where did you get that shirt?? One of the greatest quotes I've ever seen.

[ysmnthelight]

@insanityuponlife666 Hey man! I love that quote. That shirt is made by an organization called To Write Love On Her Arms. I'll copy & paste what they are from their website:

"To Write Love on Her Arms is a non-profit movement dedicated to presenting hope and finding help for people struggling with depression, addiction, self-injury and suicide. TWLOHA exists to encourage, inform, inspire and also to invest directly into treatment and recovery."

You can buy shirts at their website, twloha.com!

[insanityuponlife666]

@ysmnthelight Thank you so much, You're the best. (And I really mean that) This song must have taken a lot of time to compose into such a masterpiece!!. I love it so much I considered this to be my travel song :D, I can't explain exactly why (I'm traveling around different countries whenever I see the chance, "Carpe Diem" of my life) and this song will from now on, give me that little courage that I seek. I'm hoping to get that shirt as soon as I can; I hope they have more. so thanks again

[CaptainAawesome]

@ysmnthelight I love TWLOHA! I bought one of their shirts, but I accidentally got 3 sizes too small haha

[LivingWithGiantsband]

@insanityuponlife666 It's also a Switchfoot song. I know they sell those shirts at Switchfoot shows. That's where I bought mine.

[MVBAND2003]

this is an amazing video and the arrangement for different keyboards is really well done. im also blown away by the 4 octave vibes that you have. must be dope every time you practice on it. if you still have your sheet music for this, i would love for my perc ensemble to play the piece.

[Butterz8]

Incredible

[flipflopqt1294]

absolutely amazing.



[raginbull29]

That was freaking beautiful man.

[lovelessdance32]

So amazing. Thank god you put the download up cause now I can listen to this every morning and start my days off on the right foot.

[ysmnthelight]

@lovelessdance32 Dude... this is an awesome compliment. Hahah. I really appreciate it!

[EstefanDedalus]

@ysmnthelight I used to listen to this song on my way to school. It makes me remember of good days that happened not so long ago. Your cover made me feel happy again. As a fellow percussionist, I sincerely thank you and there's nothing I can say than congratulations, you did an awesome job.

[OblivionZer0]

I need new tear ducts.

[Schlagwerker1988]

GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Resonate85]

You have no idea how lucky you are to have access to all those instruments. Great job.

[mfeher91]

wow this was absolutely stunning. incredible job man. my high schools percussion ensemble did a similar version like 4 years ago. do you have sheet music for this? if so i would be interested in somehow getting a copy. Thanks for the beautiful rendition man.

[ysmnthelight]

@mfeher91 No way! Is there a video anywhere of your school's rendition? I'd love to hear it. Unfortunately, my sheet music for this was kinda just scribbles that were just enough for me to understand. If you want that, I can scan it and send it and you can try and decode it. :P Thanks so much for the compliments though! It means a lot.

[mfeher91]

@ysmnthelight yeah dude that would be great thanks a lot. if you search your hand in mine and cb east my high schools version is the first video. thanks again man

[coasteraddict]

You deserve more views. AWESOME work.

[riverstrawslol]

it's so pretty O_O ...You should do more stuff like this :D

[asdfglori]

I love you.

[lastwishSTAR]

That was fantastic!

[toolgirl402003]

I never would have thought a cover of this amazing song would have worked when anyone other than EIS did it, but you proved me wrong. This is amazing, you should be really proud of, not only the music itself but, the editing as well. You have some true talent in many areas...

[ysmnthelight]

@VaginaJuiceBro Well this is awkward...

[classicalGass17]

amazing

[00Gorilla00]

This is amazing... really

[TheDrummerKick2]

LOVED the ending too btw, absolutely perfect

[TheDrummerKick2]

Jesus Christ man, completely original. You took a beautiful work and turned it into your own without ruining the original. Props.

[Galasuko]

[CaseyTheDrummerBoy]

Absolutely amazing man. I really enjoyed experiencing this. The filming in this was really cool. I especially liked the shot of you on the box (I apologize, I don't know what that's called), but just the lighting in the shots were really good. Overall this was just, beautiful. Thank you for putting the time and effort into making this.

[amistrymister]
