I’m not sure the plot of the film would fit well on the drum corps field but the score has some powerful moments. My first time hearing this wonderful music. What a great main theme. I immediately saw Phantom Regiment in my head. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim K Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 Maybe there should be a “Music Corps Should Not Do Thread.” If so, this would be perfect for that category. Just got back from a local restaurant familiar to many in Massachusetts, especially 27th Alums, Kelly’s Roast Beef. I wasn’t in the Revere location, but I was in the mood for some fried clams. A family was sitting in a booth behind me, and they had a device that was playing “Baby Shark” over and over. A boy in the family, probably four or so, found a paper towel roll, pretended it was a trumpet, and marched around pretending he was playing “Baby Shark” on a trumpet. Maybe he has a future in drum corps, but he picked the wrong audition piece. And as anyone knows who has heard this ditty, it’s hard to get it out of your head! Thought I’d share my misery with you. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCI-DadJokes Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 (edited) Gavin Harrison’s ‘Cheating the Polygraph’ is a re-imagined album of 8 songs from the band Porcupine Trees where he was the drummer. This is meh style rock rewritten in a big jazz fusion style. The link below is for a sample of the album, all tracks. There is some seriously cool jazz here for BD or Bloo. I am not a fan of the original band, but this album kills. Hope you enjoy. https://youtu.be/NJCPiNby-DY Edited January 29, 2019 by DCI-DadJokes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cadevilina Crown Posted February 2, 2019 Share Posted February 2, 2019 John Powell has done it yet again with the soundtrack to the third How To Train Your Dragon film. This track especially would make for an awesome opener or ballad (not counting the last minute and 15 seconds, which could also work): Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kdaddy Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 It took far too long to get Bruckner in drum corps, let's keep it going with the last five or so minutes of Bruckner 5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheAngryBavarian Posted February 7, 2019 Share Posted February 7, 2019 I'm on the bandwagon. Somebody (Phantom or Crown) needs to do Janacek's Sinfonietta. Also, somebody needs to start doing some John Mackey. Kingfishers Catch Fire as a closer would be amazing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am so sick and tired of hearing every other high school marching band play that piece. Almost none of those renditions sound anywhere near the level of the original. That being said, in the hands of a Top 12 corps that knows how to arrange this piece correctly, this would be a fantastic closer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xandandl Posted February 7, 2019 Share Posted February 7, 2019 No to any Country Western, barbershop quartet or other yodelling where designers don't know what to do with the trombonists who can't march because they disrupt the sleek look of the drill formations 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
