Matt is an absolute alien of a monster player as always, but the first thing I noticed was just how much Matt has changed into his current Gigachad form, crazy beef
That's Gigachad++ actually, I mean it's beyond anything anyone else really has gotten to except maybe Weckel or Colaiuta....definitely some Donati sprinkled in there, but more like a hybrid of all in pure magical form hence the double ++, so double ++ equals ++++ so all silliness aside it's Gigamatt++++
Matt - I bought this in combination with your ebook. Just wanted to say that having loops, and then your transcriptions to mess around with the concepts has changed my playing /practice. An idea - if you had a bunch of loops for 4/4 pop stuff / stylistic stuff and then transcriptions of yourself playing to them, I’d be all over that. Stuff the average drummer might whip out on a bar gig / wedding gig. Just playing the Trinity loop and then going through all the ways you change the feel and being able to shed that - really has changed my practicing. Thanks!
Those grooves are like nightmares to a beginner who's trying to understand what's going on! But an enigmatic dream, for us who understand what's going on , still have to bargain with ourselves to be able to accomplish those rudiments. And the bargain is, lose sleep or learn the methods!
WOW!!. I wonder how Matt feels about us mere mortal drummers, the new drums sound great btw. I've watched it twice.. Had to slow some parts down to 0.5 speed to even figure out what he was doing.
I wonder if this is his new practice spot mentioned in a recent video…ie his downstairs. Congrats on getting out of LA! I remember my 30 minute commute to the practice spot. Thankfully it’s a flight of stairs now.
It's well disguised, it took me a while. Those middle eastern vibes are saucy, keep' em coming. I purchased and loved the loops by the way, I wish Trinity 795 was longer though. Big ups man.
Curious, Matt, how long do you just play over vamps like these during your practice? Does this comprise a large chunk of your shed time? Inspiring playing, man.
@@HighDefBNG I love AAL my friend, but what Matt does here is quite different. This is much more flowy and atmospheric, almost like a soundtrack. AAL is aggressive, much more guitar focused and their songs try to catch your attention at every moment, which is a good thing aswell but a total different experience.
hey Matt! I was just wondering, what heads do you use? I saw you changed from the Powerstroke 77 on the snare, and I think it sounds even better than before personally!
I either use a coated emperor or coated ambassador on the snare nowadays. Occasionally a coated vintage Ambassador. The Ambassadors have such n amazing snap but if I'm playing very aggressive music it will only last a song or two, but It can last me weeks in practice.
I see a lot of speculation it’s going to be revealed as the equilibrium ride, but I kinda think it’s just a meinl byzance dual ride, though he’s never stated it that I’ve seen. Check em out though. Looks the same. I’m wondering which crashes these are. He’s used a combo of an extra thin jazz ride and a traditional hand hammered but I’m not sure that’s this combo.
Man I never knew Bono played drums at all much less this great. I sure hope U2 come out with an album real soon and maybe Matt Garstka can be on vocals.
@@henne2k That's been my exact sentiment ever since double pedal engineering evolved into really solid, legit, and reliable hardware. People will always argue and debate about notes "blurring" and getting muddy sonically at higher tempos with a double pedal on one bass drum, but guys like T. Lang and Donati use double pedals and their strokes are always articulate and individually heard. And they're two guys that play blazing double-strokes, so if anyone was gonna use two bass drums because double pedals sacrifice articulation and clarity, it would be them. It's also always been funny to me that we play two sticks on every other drum in the kit and it's always been just fine.

He saw Blake Richardson looking like he could powerbomb God and thought oh wow i like your style

Loose sleep to learn the methods!
I absolutely love that ride.
His pocket is aggressive as fuck love it!
Matt Garstka - thank u for your service
Unbelievable excellence. Loved your workshop at Absolute Music man, you are a pioneer!
I could listen to six space loop forever
Me: on the toilet, clicks this video
Matt: Stank Butt
Me: *looks around for hidden cam” 👀
This is incredibly tasty and the bass just sits so well in the mix
Gary Novak smiles happily upon these grooves!
Six Fo Loop just hits the spot. Ridiculous talent Mr Matt
Very nice... I dig the sound of that ride cymbal!
wow he's good, he should be in a prog band or something
Dude’s some kind of animal! Definitely a leader on the drum scene. Hope he finds a band soon.
*a* prog band
@@aeco15 no
classic comment and I love it.
He just needs a guitarist in his band like toastin abasi to really set him off
5:38 Insane!
I really felt in love with this last one, It's by far my favorite 🙏
WOW!!. I wonder how Matt feels about us mere mortal drummers, the new drums sound great btw. I've watched it twice.. Had to slow some parts down to 0.5 speed to even figure out what he was doing.
Six space loop, now that is really chillaxed. Great. That huge high hat is lovely. I'd like to see Thomas Lang do this.
Hi hat not huge only closer to camera
Matt went to music school for a math degree.
That snaredrum sounds like whipping. 💥
that transition in Six Fo is siiiiiick!! Just got the loop pack! can't wait to dig in
Where'd you get the loop pack please?
John Wick killing grooves and drums now yo
He's sending us some form of communication, and it's honestly turning me one.
Indeed
It is turning me two
yes, alien galaxy x3)0 are indeed sending their best
DAMN, Matt! Run for office, big homie. Since we seem to elect "Animals As Leaders", you are a shoe-in! Bless up! Keep on keeping on.
went absolutely crazy in Six Fo.. my god
Best drummer in the world no cap
you missed something
@@JGBDYT what?
@@JGBDYT yeah what?
of all time
@@JGBDYT TRUUUUUUUUUUUUUUEEEEEEE!😂
Ghostnote following the music, so good to ears
I hear the Stank. I need more Butt. Lucky to have it regardless. Thank you
i am in love with this man
I like this content. We need a series.
Yeah, just keeping it gangsta behind the kit. Well done.
I wonder if this is his new practice spot mentioned in a recent video…ie his downstairs. Congrats on getting out of LA! I remember my 30 minute commute to the practice spot. Thankfully it’s a flight of stairs now.
Whats the time signature of Renegade loop, anyone knows?
4/4 :)
It's well disguised, it took me a while.
Those middle eastern vibes are saucy, keep' em coming.
I purchased and loved the loops by the way, I wish Trinity 795 was longer though.
Big ups man.
Man, I'm intrigue to hear Jojo Mayer's take on these loop track . Can someone reach out to him and make this happen?

Monster on the loop!
Matt the metronome man
Phenomenal virtuoso
Phenomenal. What ride is that? I can see that it's a dual extra dry but what size?
It is actually a prototype I am developing with Meinl at the moment. Stay tuned for its release this coming year
@@drummusician Looking forward. Sounds incredible :))
Reminds me a lot of the Sabian omni. Killer ride and crash sound
such a sweet loop to killing it over
Purple loop sounds like an intense The Mercury Program.
Between 5:38 - 5:48 sheesh that shit cray!
What's the snare???
Could watch you jamming those loops for hours! xD
Yes, releasing the loops (additionally) with his playing would be a good deal.
Your improving stuffs only i can say woowwwww🤯🔥🔥🔥❤️❤️🔥
(T)His Snare sound is just cracking it throughout. Does anyone know which exact model he is using here?
This is a tasty arrangement! It's like Stanger Things new theme song...
Curious, Matt, how long do you just play over vamps like these during your practice? Does this comprise a large chunk of your shed time? Inspiring playing, man.
this should be made into an entire genre that everyone listens to instead of low fi
This over some Patrick O’Hearn or Trammel Starks would totally crush titties.
Dam. Deep pockets Matt
I would pay for a full album with this kind of stuff. Just saying.

@@superjarri Aphex Twin vibes.
You are a legend, Matt!
Excellent pocket!
Keep on keepin' on brother, dude!
🥺🙌🙌 you are getting better day by day and i am copying your this type of work🤘🔥
What cymbals are you using?
That “six fo” is nasty.
Amazing snare sound. Anyone know which one it is?
DW Royal Ebony 6.5x14
@@deadseamorty much appreciated!
I love space trap and purple loop
Matt slowly transforming into John Petrucci
Still behind about 100lb of pizza.

Where does matt stream?
Berkeley learned so much from Matt.
3:57 Purple Loop
Is that ride a concept?

@@zeusthedrumlord547 see any of his latest videos with dw drum especially those with over head view and you'll tell it is a concept ride
Santa's Jam after a long day from work.
I rememeber as a kid he told me about wanting to be as good as Wolfgang id say he has surpassed that Vision and then some
3:58 Purple Loop.
Whaaaaaaa?? So good...
so good
Wish I could play like that
I would kill to see a Matt vs Ash Soan vdeo
Ayyye, Mattsputin....
Can you announce the ride already 🤨
this is very tasty...thank you !
Man I never knew Bono played drums at all much less this great. I sure hope U2 come out with an album real soon and maybe Matt Garstka can be on vocals.
Well muse just released a song with big metal influences so.. everything is possible in 2022 ;)
Impressive but can you play The Reason by Hoobastank?
def deafulting to that hithating to that snare bass drum ratio
so sick....
givechaseloop 💥
I like what’s happening in this corner of the internet
This is where other drummers at audition say "well, I'm no Matt Gartska but..."
Drums sound songood
The double bass setup seems to have died before it got started. lol
Who needs that anyway 😅

Damn I didn’t know Aaron Rodgers was so good at drums
This is what it sounds like if math has arms and legs
1:30 - 1:35 aaaaaaaaaaaaawwwwwwwwwwwwww this sounds delicious
what this genre?
Virgin Mother! Maaaat 🙌🙌
Watching him makes me want to quit playing and practice simultaneously.
Excuse me sir, which planet do you come from? This is extraterrestrial..!!!
