Adrenaline Engines - Randall Standridge, Grade 2.5

Thundering percussion, driving rhythms, memorable melodies and frenetic energy are unrelenting in this rip-roaring sonic adventure. Meter changes enhance the pace while dynamics and expression add character to the music. This will be a sure-fire winner with your band and audience!

[@SchoolAppropriate]

My percussionists LOVED this! As a percussionist myself (you know how it be), I always pick pieces percussion heavy for my students. Thank you Mr. Standridge!!

[@SuperMarioOddity]

Agreed!
The timpani part is extremely fun. Even as someone who mostly plays grade 4 and 4.5 pieces now, it’s still fairly challenging with the stick movements on the solos. Love this piece!

[@ThatOneGuyIsaac08]

Have you heard steel? It’s a good song

[@Tito9857]

Played this my 7th grade year in band (was also a percussionist) was such a fun piece

[@peyton2084]

My biggest flex was playing the timpani for this, sickest thing ever!

[@-_M1K3s_4dd1ct]

Yes!! I'm playing xylo/marimba for this and it is so fun. It gets me going whenever we hit the percussion breaks.

[@DonovanMowry-kk2iu]

Omg I'm playing timpani for this too

I remember hearing the end of the song, and I felt so proud of myself. It was an honor to be in All County Band. This results of practice blew me away. This is the most beautiful and adventurous song I had ever heard.

[@nidrevoicirapaodraneol7445]

I’m playing this for my all county band!

[@Bluehamster-ng7ik]

The snare part is so fun

[@danieloku7560]

I love the low brass part in the beginning. I play trombone and I'm the only low brass in my class. Its basically a solo for me

[@dinolover_1184]

I remember always being the "snare guy" in my school, but playing snare drum in this actually made me proud to hold that title.

[@sophiebanuelos2657]

I just played this a few concerts ago at the "Not quite spring concert"! I loved being mallet percussion for this, it was really fun!

[@Tensorblade]

Playing this for our spring concert with honors band and symphonic band,middle school. Really nice piece.

[@BennyKetchup]

I love all your music oh my godddd

[@thereedist_]

[@cookiyzz]

I am playing this as a trumpet and i love this song its my favroite song we have played

[@XxSavageTKxX]

We played this last year, it was easy and fun

[@houdinitwo]

I love every piece you make, whenever I see your name on it I know it's fun (go bari❤)
My fav part is at the beginning where the low brass and low winds get to show off

[@nala.quadrobist]

[@randallstandridge]

Thank you, but no

[@aditya_aquarius]

@@randallstandridge what do you consider your best piece?

[@gabs0819]

I actually love this piece

[@iLikePlanes16]

Sometimes I like to play this song on snare and in the middle of nowhere just play some serious chops 😂😂😂

[@MuchoM4ngo]

Rest in piece to all the percussionists in measure 69

[@Trombonemusic765]

Your piece is the first time we had three four on our concert music in band

[@calamania]

Playing Tuba on this was magical!

[@cyclechickmary]

This was the first piece I ever played by Mr. Standridge!

[@xxEzraBxxx]

On Xylo for this one

[@rooberdoo]

real

[@xxEzraBxxx]

@@rooberdoo It was pretty fun. We won a band comp in Pigeon Forge for it.

[@MuchoM4ngo]

Same

[@MuchoM4ngo]

As a beginner mallet percussionist measure 69 was a pain

[@xxEzraBxxx]

@@MuchoM4ngo I don’t think any part of it was difficult. That’s the solo correct?
It’s just a scale pattern, really simple stuff.

[@aditya_aquarius]

Thanks so much!

[@TheRandomBlder]

I played in my middle school band foe the Spring resightal I was percussionist I had 4 different parts on on crash and suspended symbols, the triangle, and the timpani

[@Kxz_Red]

I’m playing this for the Utah state fair

[@GKKL-x8n]

As a person that plays trumpet and is playing song for my spring concert, I hurt at the end of each rehearsal because of the amount of articulation😭

[@BraylenTheGamer1]

Also the way it calms down in the middle then gets louder

[@BraylenTheGamer1]

I love the intro it’s unexpected at first

[@MrCalCal87]

Mr. Standridge, what would you say is the hardest part on this piece?

[@Sergesadventures]

Afterburn?

[@presleykizziar1344]

Playing this in honor band got to study it

[@AquaMistYT]

Nice I played this when I was in honor band in 2018

[@EliasHayes-mp7vr]

I played this in Chesapeake HS. I got Bb Clarinet Part 2.

[@Oldgenricthtofen]

I like it. I play second trumpet

[@lnaxlvr]

as a trumpet 2 player i despise the repetitiveness in this song since my director makes us play it over and over again ✌️

[@janerikflores]

I was clarinet it was fun!

[@Sleep_is_needed]

This is one of the hardest xylo pieces I've played, measures 69-71 I just can get right, I keep messing up 😭😭

[@xxEzraBxxx]

It’s pretty easy for me. I’ve been playing for 2 years since 11th grade

[@whiskeithered]

No trumpet part?? :[

[@laynehoffstatter8222]

I'm about to play this at a comp at elitches in 30 min

[@bigbread2928]

why is it called Kweblekop?? 🤣

[@BraylenTheGamer1]

And the way all of the instruments have the main tempo at some point

[@vvxcrystl]

W song

[@thatonekiddd_jay]

Hey

[@TrevBrooks55]

Hello!

[@YDPC12112]

kinda sound like afterburn

[@Sergesadventures]

It’s inspired by afterburner becuase people wanted a harder version for them to play
