  • I finally got around to doing a reaction to Matt Garstka's playthrough of "Red Miso" by Animals as Leaders! In this video I do a breakdown of his playing, stylistic choices, musical approach, and his gear setup. This was a fantastic video and I thoroughly enjoyed watching the master @drummusician at work! I personally learned a few things myself watching him play, and I highly encourage you all to check out his channel, social media, and his website! All links below! If you enjoyed the reaction please do no hesitate to talk to me in the comments, and please like as well as subscribe if you haven't already! Thanks so much everyone for watching!

    At 6:26 you write "that bass sounds so good". As far as I know they don't have bass in Animals as leaders. The sound you think bass is actually the other guitarist Javier Reyes.

Great reaction as always, love the analysis, and I particularly loved the breakdown on what samples are and how he had his kit set up.

    Those look like DW's new top of the line pedals the MCD (Machined Chain Drive). Matt's DW endorsement is relatively new (about a year or so?) as he was a Tama endorser for a long time before that. I kinda like how he added a second bass drum but didn't change the rest of the setup leaving both rack toms above the primary kick. Nice reaction and review....just subbed.

    Please check out the new breakout band Tallah! Their drummer Max Portnoy is son of legendary drummer Mike Portnoy and his is sooo good! The whole band is amazing and bringing back the nu metal sound from the early 00's, but modernizing it with their own twist! Hard to find a good "drum video", but definitely react to some of their tracks if possible! They just released a new sophomore 2022 album of the year, "The Generation of Danger". The songs, "Shaken (Not Stirred)", "Overconfidence", "The Impressionist", "For The Recognition", are good places to start if you can! 😀

      ok i deep dived into some research on this. Tosin said they are using a guitar to essentially emulate a bass sound by manipulating it in Cubase.
