Hi, I’m Advik! I’m 19. I’ve played piano almost all my life, I’m a percussionist in the school band (mostly mallet percussion but I’ve been in the drumline before), I produce music, and I write songs too! I enjoy playing some fun instruments like kalimba and melodica as well! I have perfect pitch, the ability to identify a musical note without a reference. Music plays such a huge role in my life and I hope it continues to do so in the future. I write about intense emotions that I sometimes feel, issues in the world that I care deeply about, and relationships with other people, especially friendships. I feel most inspired either listening to music while out for a walk or when I’m lost in thought by myself. When either of those things is happening, I resort to writing about whatever is on my mind. Subscribe/follow/contact/listen to stay updated! Or don’t. Your choice :)
POPS '23 - Tightrope
from DVHS "Blockbuster: Be Kind, Rewind!" 2023
We had the opportunity to film and record this duet onstage before it was screened as part of the Dougherty choir program's annual POPs spring concert! This was tough to pull off but so worth it. This is my personal favorite tune (and most underrated, in my opinion) from The Greatest Showman... Enjoy :)

Happy New Year! This is one of two pieces I brought to a studio to record one day during the winter. Here are progress updates/near-final recordings of the two main compositions I was focused on perfecting this past fall. I was confident enough to share them here with this little 2-part series simply titled "Two Pieces, One Session". "Sunflower" is the first piece I have completely learned of A...

do you pay attention to key signatures outside of sheet music? 🎼🥸 played some melodies in the key of B flat on the piano, thought this would be a nice way to share some travel shots as well! 🌆 #piano #keysignature #instrumental #cover #adviknigam #bflatmajor #gminor #pop

Still a favorite of mine :) This might surprisingly be the first time I've performed marimba literature at an actual event? An amazing opportunity 😊 This could also be proof I can play this on an acoustic instrument and not just an electronic one, but why would I lie about that XD Thanks so much to Arav for filming!! *continuous-stream-of-thought descriptions are superior #Land #marimbasolo #Ad...
A Little Prayer (from Evelyn Glennie's 3 Chorales for Marimba) (rough take)

apparently, my laptop microphone can pick up the sonority of the marimba WAY better than I expected, so I thought I’d share this almost-polished run-through of Evelyn Glennie’s GORGEOUS chorale “a little prayer” a bit of reverb for some major whitacre vibes 😌 best w headphones ofc btw planning to properly record this on an acoustic instrument (aside from this school one) as well as my other rep...

Early last year, I picked up my very first string instrument: the ukulele. I knew I wanted that to be showcased in one of these few new covers. This song spoke to me both musically and lyrically last year!

I listened to this solo piano piece years ago for the first time and it wasn't until about last year when it came on a playlist after so long, while I was painting. I was stopped in my tracks thinking, "I remember that tune!! What is that??" I would say this is what it would sound like if a piano alongside an orchestra scored it for a film :D Here are some driving/nature clips to underscore it ...

In recognition of the National Day of Silence 🏳️🌈 Thank you so so much to Kristen (@kristerduster3446) for playing violin on this; it was a lot of recording meetings, exchanges, and editing and now it's a final product :) I met Kristen and discovered her RUclips channel through a friend and was blown away; I knew we had to collaborate. This was the first Dodie song I listened to before growing...
Percy A. Grainger - Irish Tune & Shepherd's Hey (CCCHB 2022)
Просмотров 4132 года назад
The county honor band is back at it! Played glockenspiel for the latter "movement" (the former was a percussion tacet). When we were rehearsing Irish Tune after the director had told us the backstory, I closed my eyes and listened as if I were an audience member and I'll never forget the way the tears stung my eyes at the climax. Shepherd's Hey was the fun pick-me-up that got wild toward the en...
John Philip Sousa - The Thunderer (CCCHB 2022)

The county honor band is back at it! Played piatti (crash cymbals) for the much-necessary Sousa march. "Other than the fact that Sousa’s 'thunderer' was undoubtedly a Mason, his identity may never be revealed. 'The Thunderer' march was dedicated to Columbia Commandery No. 2, Knights Templar, of Washington, D.C., and it was composed on the occasion of the Twenty-fourth Triennial Conclave of the ...

Sorry Alexa is for Amazon not for Apple because Siri is for Apple
It’s from the opening of Barney’s Great Adventure.
How? Show me how to master the secret technique.
wow I had no idea they sounded this good now
Do you have any issues with your instrument? I want to buy one, but I heard bad reviews! Thank you.
No major technical issues over the years. I wouldn't call it an alternative to an acoustic keyboard percussion instrument, but to me, as far as electronic instruments like these go, it's worked well! It also has decent touch sensitivity and in general is very useful for beginners, instructors, and even performers. (I've taken it onstage after this video was made)
ur amazing at this instrument
i know ur little brother!!!!:)
nice!
wow
aww is that baby anvay
wow ur good
this sounds really good, great job!!!!!!
AMAZING!!
Guys this is AMAZING!! I'm so prouddd great job!

Hi! Sounds so freakin cute:’) can u share the ukelele chords?
hi! i didn’t refer to a site, just picked them up by ear, but I believe it’s Dm-C-G throughout :)
man this was so cool! im glad it popped up in my feed :)
everyone's commenting about how good this piece is but after watching ur video 15 times I am totally fixated upon the PE shirt lol
LOL this was actually so long ago wow, funny cuz one of my new current goals when video making is to not blatantly feature unwanted branding 🙃
Cool , I love this movie cars 2 is my favorite movie which I always love. Is my favorite movie at hot topic lol

What software did you use to get the marimba sound? I’ve been trying to use studio one on pc but it’s been driving me insane.
twas Logic Pro!
@@adviknigam Did you use the Logic Pro marimba patch, or another library? Outstanding rendition! Congratulations!
@@Dynasty62752 It was Logic's own standard plugin. Thanks!
A great one. Thanks for this.
Why did you say hello alexa to siri?
Forgot this video existed 😳 I’d say to spice up the dialogue? 🙃
1-year not-that-major update: Though I’ve acquired various mallets, I prefer the Malletech Stevens LS15’s I’m using in this video for the malletSTATION as they’re my softest and make the least extra impact noise. I also found an external plugin from good old Spitfire Audio called BBC Symphony Orchestra, which has a marimba in its tuned percussion sub-library! Because it was recorded not necessarily for it to stand solo and to only give color to the orchestra, it has preset reverb that you cannot remove, and some mallet impact noise on the ‘wooden bars’ that you may be able to control with EQ. It has an authentic sound although I do not prefer it over Logic’s default marimba plugin and like them both in their own ways :)
What do you do in the EM1 Controller App and in Logic Pro to achieve “realistic” touch and control while playing? Also, are you using Malletech Leigh Steven’s mallets?
Hi! Unaware of an app for the controller (other than Logic Remote which externally controls the DAW). The instrument has a set touch sensitivity that is overall effective and natural, unless you tap too softly. I haven’t found a way to adjust that… also yes those are the Malletech Stevens LS15’s!
I was placed on MalletStation for marching band this year (I’m a senior). A little disappointed I didn’t get marimba, but I’ve been wanting to try a MalletStation for a little while, and this is one of 2 videos that inspired that wish. Plus, my high school used a MalletKat in my freshman year, and the MalletStation is pretty much a MalletKat, but better. Anyways, Wonderful arrangement, Advik. Very well done.
Thank you!! That’s so good to hear; I love when the instrument’s used in a marching band setting, and that this vid is a small part of the reason you enjoy it and were willing to make the most of that opportunity :) Good luck with that 🙌
p͎r͎o͎m͎o͎s͎m͎ ❤️
beautiful music!! and i loved all the small touches you added in
thxx arav!! yea I’m always tempted to do that 😄
Fire vid 🔥🔥🔥
thank you aidan! 😊😊
absolutely loved this collab 🙏🙏
thx for your contributions kristen!! 🎻
Ciao Advik mi piace molto questo brano e vorrei suonarlo anch'io sulla malletstation,dove posso trovare lo spartito?
[Ciao! Consiglierei siti Web come Steve Weiss Music, Lone Star Percussion e Tapspace per acquistare spartiti per percussioni. Grazie!] Translated from English
Grazie 🙏 complimenti per la tua esecuzione 🎹
Sooo soothing! I love it! 😍🔥
Ending reminded of Shadow of the Colossus. Great playing!
I was thinking the nt 4.0’s shutdown was the startup reversed
yea also microsoft did that i don't know why lol
Samuel Hazos always has fun percussion parts. Nice job!
I miss one that is very spread and notorious - titututitututitu - i can't find anywhere what it is called
It’s been an absolute pleasure getting to know you and playing even a small part in your 2021. I look forward to many more happy memories in 2022!!!
Thx for being a great friend Sanjit 😊 Happy New Year!! 🎊
Your compositions both music and writing are incredible Advik 😱
THX KRISTEN ☺️☺️
Absolutely wonderful, made my day!
This is so well done and moving. You have a gift with words. As we have talked about, and you spoke here, we all experience many of the same feelings and thoughts. By sharing we tap into our collective healing.
Love that, thank you Steve!! 😊
This has such a cinematic feel, it’s unreal.
thxxx sanjit so glad you love it!! 😊
Thanks for sharing!
Here from the Adam Tan video. This is great, too. Awesome stuff.
thank you so much 😇😇
Heyyyy I know you!
