  • He didn't have his Skrillex wallpaper on his computer up this time!

    D:

  • O__O

  • HOLY SHIT

    

  • how are you so fast and precise on your octaves? Its pretty fucking awesome

  • @jaykp123 they're my favorite thing to play! Just play a lot of octave scales (major/minor/chromatic) and arpeggios with the metronome and you'll get there. I just do them so much cause they are more fun for me than Czerny or Hannons

  • You are astonishingly... Incredible

  • te pasas de lanza!

  • liked and shared :D awesome sounds exactly like the original

  • @2k11chester Thanks so much!! Shares and likes are seriously worth their weight in gold to me. You are awesome!

  • He is awsm

  • I am a groupie for this man and I'm not even gay.

  • You, sir, deserve a Grammy for your work. I salute you, oh fine YouTuber.

  • dude, you're amazing! can you re-upload it on soundcloud, cuz it reached its download limit, but i don't have it!

  • Its awesome that you not only cover Skrillexs raw beauty incredibly, but you cover his unreleased songs!!! Great work man

  • Evan, Just want you to know, I had a homework assignment in Piano Class (im in high school) and I had to find 2 videos on YouTube of people playing the piano and right away i picked 2 of your videos and the teacher was blown away and got me an A+ :) Nice work!!! Cant wait for future videos and covers!!!

  • Evan, this deserves waaaay more views!

  • many people may not know you but the real talent can not be covered, still working hard and who knows someday the world will know your name and your incredible talent

  • ur awsome

  • This is awesome man, must've taken you ages! Any plans on a version without the 'dubstep' and keeping it melodic the whole way through? Would love to hear that...

  • This is awesome. Can you play this to me every night before bed?

  • isnt this fake??

  • @DeteFromBlokvi I hope not! It took me some time to practice and get a recording... if I found out I was faking, I'd be PISSED!

  • @evanduffycomposer there is a real song "voltage" that skrillex plays live but its unrelreased, the studio version floating around was made by some dude trying to approximate what it sounds like but the real drop is very different.

  • @darkbyte202 I'm familiar with that recording, however this arrangement was made using multiple live recordings of Skrillex dropping the track - including the performance I saw from him back in October

  • hey man, you must be ambidextrous!!!

  • sick as hell! keep it going

  • perfect ! no more

  • Sir, this is one of the coolest most awesomeset things I have ever seen in my entire life. Top of the hat to you.

  • Can we download this or buy it somewhere? :O

  • How old are you? realy nice young piano

  • Absolutely AMAZING dude, keep it up and use your talent to inspire others. Nice work

  • It's so beautiful !!

  • You make me cry :')

  • i don't like classical music. but i love your stuff, and i'm finding that your covers of dubstep act like classical music to me (such as when surgeons listen during surgery or students learn better when listening to classical) :D thank you so much for deciding to share your work with the world and perform these covers. please keep it up. it helps me to get through my homework without getting too distracted. ^_^

  • 10 000th view. woooooooo

  • 10 thousand views doesn't do this justice. Youre killin it man keep it up.

  • amazing.

  • Keep it up friend. you're have a good talent

  • who can dislike this :(

  • when i want to be pumped up, i listen to the actual skrillex songs. when i feel like relaxing, i listen to piano versions of skrillex songs, and the first place i come is to you. then i continue coming all over the floor.

  • What a boss XD

  • you sir....are jesus. amazing. absolutely amazing.

  • That one dislike is SOPA saying "You may not download!!!!!!"

  • Ugh every time i hear you play i feel like i have to cry from excitement. yet again ill ask marry me ?

  • You are soooooo talented

    

  • Also could you try the song "Father Said" by Skrillex.

  • Dude you are crazy good. Do you have any more music on itunes than just "With your Friends ( Long Drive)"? Also I think I heard a wrong note at 2:59 on this song. Sorry but being musically inclined something didn't sound right to my ear just curious. Your'e an incredible player and I wish I could play piano as well as you but I'm no where close ha.

  • amazing bro! you got me inspired to try and learn some piano with my grandpa's I just inherited! keep it going bro! much love :D

  • absolutelyfreakingincredible!!­

  • Blown away bro..

  • my mind is blown!! i've been playing piano for 11 years and i thought i was good. but dude seriously you're ridiculous! please please please keep playing. you're amazing!

  • 1:13 Piano bassdrop? Goosebumps!

  • i really wish you wanted to make a tutorial, i would love to learn this, sounds great man!

  • I'm happy that i've seen this video when it's only got 6,000 views. It will give me some satisfaction when it hits the millions.

  • amazing man!!

  • i like to go under my bed and pretend i'm a carrot

  • holy fuck , almost made me cry... so beautiful

  • i have been playing piano for about 5 years and a half and i'm nowhere near as good as you .. and i never thought of playing skrillex songs on piano ... but you do it so well .. awesome job

  • HOLY TITS ! <3

  • I didnt even know it was possible to go that fast..

  • You are my fucking idol! <3

  • You are a good person! =D

  • I dont know how to play piano but I will love to Learn how long it takes ? Im thinking on Buying one (:

  • How can you move your fingers so fast?! o:

  • Does anyone know the notes for the intro? Or the chords in Voltage? :L

  • In the begining: hmm... Hes really good... At the drop: HOLY COW!

  • Holy sheeeeeeetttttt I cried when you played the drop

  • Honestly, I'm glad this doesn't have a sheet to it. Because then, I would print it out, attempt to play it just like you, realize I'm nowhere near as good enough to even learn it, rip it up, throw a huge tantrum in the middle of a Starbucks, go to jail for starting a fight, and live out the rest of my life as an inmate :(

  • Dayummm :D

  • Think you could do a version of .Johann Pachelbel - Canon in D Major? 

  • if only there were sheet music :(

  • Dude do you learn by ear????

  • @Gamemaster1000000 I do all of these arrangements of electronic/popular tracks by ear, but I learn classical repertoire with scores. I love playing by ear, but it's good to have a good balance between the two!

  • @evanduffycomposer :') Skrillex must be proud. You've earned yourself another sub! :l I hate that you don't have more too... Ive shared, liked, favourited and subbed! I absolutely love the sound of your piano! It's so light sounding and rythmic!

  • You should do a cover of some tiesto songs.

  • ASTOUNDING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!! One of my favourite songs right know, reimagined in perfect piano form. Just as much hype on your rendition as the original!

  • You my friend are possibly the best pianist I have ever seen. Keep it up :D

  • I love skrillex you do amazing jobs on these covers! you transform these to something totally new.. love it:)

    Keep up the good work i love following your posts!

  • good stuff man keep it up

    

  • Equinox! :D

  • So, not gonna lie, I felt pretty badass when I taught myself Voltage a month ago... now I am just embarrassed after seeing yours hahah. I've said it in other videos, but you are seriously INCREDIBLE. We need to get married asap, jusss' sayin! You love the same music as me, and we both play piano :)

  • This is pure awesomeness. When will your album of all these excellent covers be ready for purchase? Or download, either way I want it in high quality audio now! Uhm.. Please. :)

    Keep it up.

  • you should join ice fortress

  • You should try doing Porter Robinson - Unison or maybe The seonds. That would be Epic

  • @Brainbox97 love Porter Robinson! Especially Unison (Knife Party remix is sick). Definitely a possibility!

  • @Brainbox97 I totally support that!!! I also love porter robinson especially the knife party remix, which i think would be a great song if covered on piano. GOOD SUGGESTION!!

  • Just gonna say, you're the best human ever. There are no words to describe how awesome this is.

  • just letting you know that all your skrillex covers are on my ipod

  • @sabertoothnate howd u put them on

  • How old are you sir? I've seen some of your Skrillex covers and you are the first person I've ever seen to do such things with the piano. I can't believe your views are not above the million! It is people like you that inspire and ENTERTAIN me. This is amazing. I am 15 and I dream about to become something like you!!

  • @ImFromJamaicaXD I love reading messages like this - one musician to another, I know how important inspiration is to the creative process (you can only do so much without it!) so it really means a lot to me! I am 22 and have been playing piano for 12 years - am currently a senior piano performance/music composition major. Follow your dreams!

  • @evanduffycomposer I am 15 aswell. I have been playing from youtube tutorials for some years and am beginning to learn by ear. I can now even play songs without any sheets or lessons. ive never had personal, real life lessons cause i hate piano teachers hah. ^ Just like him, you inspire and entertain me to play. You are now my favorite pianist. I subbed and hope to see many videos in the future. Best of luck man.

  • @ImFromJamaicaXD Im 15 too!! How long you been playing?

  • @TheLifeOfTommy I grew up with a piano, but I really started to practice about 3 years ago I think. I'm learning simply just by playing something :)

  • awesome!!!

  • oooooo!!!!! he dropped the bass on a piano lol

  • farr so accurate with those octaves O_O

  • @ronaldtherobot I love octaves! haha can there ever be too many?

  • hello god how are you doing? long time didn't see ya :S i see you made another epic piece of piano :D

  • WOW. JUST AMAZING!

  • FUCKING AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­

  • WOW never thought that could be done on piano, Evan, this was amazing.

  • Yay this was my request i feel so exposed! hehe :D Amazing job :/ This is really good.

    My favourite bit is the "you gotta believe in something more" after the 3 bass drops :P.

    im so jealous.

    I can only play that bit in SM&NS on piano and i had to look at tutorials on youtube the whole way :(

  • very good

    1:15 wow (Y)

  • Very nice, Evan. I really enjoyed it.

  • I liked this video before it even started because I know I love everything you've done. You're seriously one of the most amazing composers/musicians I've ever seen. I hope to one day be like you, and I strive for it every day. I love music, and I love your music. Keep it up, man. :)

  • :D
