    I was listening to it and was trying to figure out how it was being played so fast and if that’s even possible but then I realized I was in x2 speed

      It sounds so cool on 2x playback speed

    That was epic

    This... doesn't "sound" like it's in 6/8 at all... seems it's an example of rhythms and phrases that are various lengths but are just written in a simple time signature regardless? I mean, you could write The Rite of Spring in 4/4 with accents...

      The rhythmic groupings are a little strange and don't always line up but that's not unusual. There are definitely measures that are six eighth notes long, though, even if it doesn't have the standard feeling
      Edit: Perhaps it's more of a 12/16 kind of thing

      9:05. It bugs me so much that I am so curmudgeonly and perfectionist that all I look (er, listen?) for when I listen to marimba solos is mistakes:) (teaching drum corps... does that to a person?)
      I LOVE this performance. it's insane.
      I mean, there are Keiko Abe recordings where SHE makes mistakes, (her stuff is hard, those insane descending riffs which feature the same exact notes down an octave and then down another octave and then another... "actually" playing those right... would take EXCELLENT accuracy, which most people... learning all manner of percussion instruments and not just marimba, seem to not have time for, which bugs me.
      Love to hear Kai Strobel play... ANYTHING else, burrit keiko abe, anything:) he's the bomb.

      ​@@highstimulation2497 I 100% understand that - I had been struggling with that same issue when I first went to college, and I only did drum corps for 2 years. It was something my area director at University actively had to kind of bash out of my skull. For me, I've kind of flipped and am pushing in the opposite direction. I'm much more enthralled in musicianship and have let note accuracy fall to the side. I've done well because of it - I get called to gig at different venues because I'm fun for people to watch and they actively enjoy me being there, BUT I don't want to be classified as an entertainer. I suppose drinking either Kool-Aid isn't exactly great. I've seen plenty of performances from kids who are 99.99% note accurate but are just boring to watch. They do everything on the page, but, as Evelyn Glennie said in her ted talk, would "Have a career that would last about 10 seconds." Kai Strobel does an EXCELLENT job of showcasing musicianship and supreme note accuracy. At the end of the day, I think music is a form of entertainment - and so long as the note accuracy doesn't detract from my personal enjoyment of the performance, I don't have problems with it.
