You know you could probably do this with just 2 pieces since it's just him being copy pasted, film yourself playing the party with the longest one, cut it down, film the next piece and so on. And now I want to know if that's what he did, or if he had access to ask of them
One year during practice for the HS Christmas concert, the guy playing the whipcrack got a finger caught in it and had to immediately visit the hospital. He came back with a finger cast, broken bone, no joke.
one year at my HS they tried to make the biggest slap stick they could, was nearly twice the height of a person, but the amount of force on the top of it was too strong and it started breaking during the concert and sent wood shrapnel flying into the audience
This is fucking incredible. I thought it was going to be a recording of each sized slapstick and then it was going to be edited together, that would've been great already, but to record each of the ~22 1:32 length slapstick videos fully and separately without any cuts and then edit it together is on an entirely different level. Bravo sir, bravo.
This was fantastic, but don’t think we didn’t notice you specifically skipped the iconic slapstick moments because of the repetitive notes right before it ;) 😂 At least we still got 0:36 lol
“There’s a birthday party at the home of Far-SLAP-mer Gray. It’ll be the perfect ending of a per-SLAP-fect day. We’ll be singing the songs we love to sing, without a single stop, At the fireplace while we watch the chestnuts pop. Pop pop pop There’s a happy feeling nothing in this world - SLAP - can buy, As they pass around the coffee and the pump-SLAP-kin pie. It’ll nearly be like a picture print by Currier and Ives.

OMG this made me laugh so hard! If this was performed at a concert, everyone would laugh nonstop for the entire duration of the song. After the song, everyone would laugh and clap instead of clapping and cheering. It would be non-stop crowd chaos!!! Merry christmas EMC!
If you don't win drummer of the year for this (and all of the other very creative percussion that you do), then I don't know what to say! Good luck to you - I voted already. When will results be announced?
This is, no joke, my favorite rendition. I'm a horn player and as such morally obligated to hate Sleigh Ride, but this is so novel (and rhythmically perfect!!!) that it's a joy!
Happy Holidays!
Happy holiday!
Merry Christmas
Happy Holiday. Also you should have left the original slapstick part in their but for the part use the giant slapstick.
Merry Christmas
Slappy Holidays!
"1812 Overture" ...but it's ALL CANNONS
YEAHHHHHHHHHH
His neighbors, and the rest of the county, hate this one EMC trick...
YES I’d go to this concert for sure
ABSOLUTELY
bro is giving him too many ideas.
This version absolutely slaps
haha
Beat us all to it :)
Underated comment
Quite literally i might add
tick
Guy at home depot: Working on something big, huh?
me: Very big.
Can’t be home depot wood, not enough spiral

@@Bucky91702 that's exactly what he did. Look at the knots on them, you can see it's all the same. Sometimes it flips left and right.
I love slapstick comedy.
(Crickets Chirping)
@peterrraklliproductions2020 (someone in the back of the audience coughs)
No way, he actually did it! I never thought my request would actually make it through lol
Thank you for this
Congrats
Thank you so much lol
looking closely, it seems like he used 3 or maybe 4 unique slapsticks, and trimmed them down for each subsequent note. That's sesiously impressive!
how can you tell?
@@daveslamjam Look at the patterns of knots on the slapsticks. you can see at least 3 unique ones
What's truly impressive is your deciding to research the provenance of each slapstick. Well done!
Love that you pointed this out. EMC puts crazy effort into his vids

That sounds so dumb its funny.
one year at my HS they tried to make the biggest slap stick they could, was nearly twice the height of a person, but the amount of force on the top of it was too strong and it started breaking during the concert and sent wood shrapnel flying into the audience
Hey, he got to do the horse sound, too!
0:29 really tickles my brain
Im gonna tickle your brain
Real
That Masters degree was money well spent
Only EMC would have the bright idea to write AND play slapstick splits. Anything is possible.
Slapstick splits lol makes me wonder what other things he can find to write split parts to.
Band teacher posted this on our regimen page saying he has no words, but I do; this slaps.
The ultimate bass split
This is fucking incredible. I thought it was going to be a recording of each sized slapstick and then it was going to be edited together, that would've been great already, but to record each of the ~22 1:32 length slapstick videos fully and separately without any cuts and then edit it together is on an entirely different level. Bravo sir, bravo.
I kept waiting for the part with the big slapstick note... but alas, it never appeared 😢
Stunning, none the less.
This could have been funny.
:36
Actually insane, this is how you spot a true pro marching bassist 🤣
1:10 is so oddly satisfying.....
What a glorious and wonderful use of time and lumber! Leroy Anderson would 100% have loved this
Genius! “The percussionists, nestled all snug in their beds, while visions of slapsticks danced in their heads…”. And to all, a good night 🌙 ❄️ 🌲
This was fantastic, but don’t think we didn’t notice you specifically skipped the iconic slapstick moments because of the repetitive notes right before it ;) 😂 At least we still got 0:36 lol
Yeah no he didn’t
@Coleslaw24wait then where was the actual slapstick section?
“There’s a birthday party at the home of Far-SLAP-mer Gray.

we need a video of you tuning every set of sticks
This guy is the GOAT
I was watching this at dinner. The slaps stop, I look at my wife… “I don’t even wanna know.” Tough crowd in my house. 👍🏼😂
OMG this made me laugh so hard! If this was performed at a concert, everyone would laugh nonstop for the entire duration of the song. After the song, everyone would laugh and clap instead of clapping and cheering. It would be non-stop crowd chaos!!!
Merry christmas EMC!
Horse whinny with slapsticks is crazy
that was a good drum break
MERRY CHRISTMAS EMC
CONGRATULATIONS ON 400K SUBSCRIBERD
Thank you!
Why was I happy expecting a Jacques Ze Whipper crossover? 😂 Excellent work!
Every percussionist’s dream
I lied, put your clothes back on, Emc posted
Okay but this scratched my brain in the best way 😊
This will become RUclips royalty is a few years.
This is now the official version of this song, all others are now considered irrelevant
and I'm here appreciating the timing needed to play things with so much difference in inertia and get the timing spot on.
Video editing. He recorded one slap of each.
@@moth.monsterdoubt it, none of his clones move erratically
Talent 🎉
Quite possibly your best video yet! Extreme creativity!
My gas stove whenever i turn it on
I'm not even a drummer but this dude always releases the greatest videos. This is amazing!
Fabulous!
Me and three of my friends marched with slapsticks in a parade for this song like a month ago. Great experience
That is a fabulous version!
This was amazing!! What a way to kick off Christmas week:-D Love the whinny at the end, hahaha. Nicely done.
Total banger
Love how he added in the trombone hits!!!
This is jaw-droppingly good
Congrats on 400k!
That's some slapstick comedy right there
The middle school band if they ever did sleigh ride all percussionists or half of them on the slapstick
Reh-dyeh-seh-frah-huh-vraweweh-seh-meh-blah-naruh-reeaaahhh...
Eh-weh-heh-heey everybody look at the snow in the yard...
If you don't win drummer of the year for this (and all of the other very creative percussion that you do), then I don't know what to say! Good luck to you - I voted already. When will results be announced?
The gift we didn't know we needed.
This is, no joke, my favorite rendition. I'm a horn player and as such morally obligated to hate Sleigh Ride, but this is so novel (and rhythmically perfect!!!) that it's a joy!
Omg, love it
Played sleigh ride this year and I can’t get this out of my brain now
Can't imagine the amount of work that went into this. Well done!
As someone who was often the slapstick guy when we played sleigh ride in high school band, I really understand where you're coming from with this.
this is therapeutic
this is beautiful. i've listened to this for five hours now.
This is the best kind of ridiculousness 😊
SLAPtastic
my favorite part of sleigh ride is the whip crack noise that the slapstick makes so this is my new favorite cover of it
This wasnt on my bingo card for 2024 but im so glad it was snuck in before the end of the year
i was hoping the entire time i'd get to hear them all slap at once. you did not disappoint me
Normally you wear shorts. With the single digit °F temperatures these days, your attire is quite appropriate.
Very enjoyable (as usual).
Gives a whole new meaning to slapstick comedy
this is the most impressive thing i've seen
Love the funny video, happy holidays and congrats on 400k
That was awesome. Only wish I had seen it before Christmas. 🎄🎅🏻
That last hit is just so satisfying
Spectacular, give me 14 of ‘em
THOSE SPLITS 😍😍
Slap Stick splits
This is an instant holiday classic.
This is actually insanely impressive
The amount of rests this guy counted... Absolute music
This is amazing I wish this was the original version
I wish there was a long/extended version of it. I love your videos
this has brought me great joy thank you
This is the greatest thing ever
You put a truly unnecessary amount of effort into this, and it's easily the most impressive thing I've seen all week!
Yoo congrats on 400K subs!
One of the most cursed things I've heard, good job
In the words of Devo..."Crack that whip!"
“More Slapstick” 😅
Fantastic!!!! Happy new year to you and yours!
I laughed hysterically for at least half of the song.
I'm glad I saved myself for this to be my first comment on EMC! That was brilliant, sir! I can only guess at how long that took to do. Great work!!!
This is a masterpiece
What a great Christmas present for all of your Morning People!!! ❤🎄🎁🎄❤️
Ah man I was hoping there would be no instrumental, only slapstick and awkward silence between melodic phrases, but this is still great.
someone has lots of time.....that was quite brilliant!
Excellent in every way
slapstick comedy
Thank you for shopping at your local Home Depot!
Merry Christmas Eric. I hope Santa brings you a lot more instruments to keep on making these great, fun and educational videos!!!!!!!!
Knowing the fight my school band percussionists went through on who got the slap stick part every year, this resonates with me
This is freaking fantastic!
Hypnotic.
The most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen🥹🥹🥹
This guy's hardware shopping list has to be crazy.
