Matt Garstka – Developing New Patterns

"In the Pattern Department" sounds like a 20 minute long psychedelic prog song.

Great vid guys, been needing something to change things up for me! p.s. if you put the video at .75% speed you can see Matt do the lesson a little tipsy.

Sounds very cool, BUT you go way too fast for me to understand what u r saying & you play it way, way too fast for me to see what u r doing. Please slow it down - I this is a great lesson & I want to be able to learn it all.

Would love to hear a conversation between Matt Garstka and Gavin Harrison!

i really appreciate the mix here, matt's drum sound is always really... particular, but you don't usually get to actually hear what it sounds like mostly natural.

True drummer👍

Drumoff = Matt vs. Anika

Freak MONSTER!
what a powerhouse!
very impressive

first drummer to actually make this clear to me.... and he did it without even thinking about it, natural teacher

It would be great if you could slow it down. Do you remember when you were learning at 1st. You have so many drum teachers going a hundred miles an hour. That's great for guys that have been on the journey for awhile. But you could teach the same thing to buggies if you would slow it down.

That snare is godly

“Yeah, is basically it!”

That pattern at the beginning between the snare and splash... Dam!

paradiddling right foot and left hand is most useful tip I've seen!

Fucking Predator!
Bilion thumb's up!

Are you Polish Matt?

Whole time I'm just thinking "MATT where's your ear protection!?" lol. Love the teaching, some really great insights.

Matt’s out here looking like a registered nurse

Problem is few, very few have doubles left hand ghost speed like Matt. Very very few. And that is a big part.

Muito bom mas tem que colocar a partitura da

Musicien très solide, avec toute une frappe

Who else knew him in Shed sessions Gospelchops before AAL? Hands up!!! XD

If only my skill and expression level was at a place where I struggled to use words to explain it.

The endless beauty of sticking combinations. Nice work!

Good drummer. Not a good teacher.

Small cymbals

the timelord, what kit is this guys, love the poooph from the kick

what i need to learn to build my own path in drumming? how to see the "whole map" and choose my own way?

Matt dressed like a nurse here because he's truly clinical on the drums.

Great video!

There is just nobody even close to him

Matt Muthaf**kin Garstka!!!!!

That kit sounds so good!

Matt is always pushing his drumming forward. Love it man!

He even speaks in odd time signatures.

A good example of Gary Chaffee application concepts.

I keep going back to the beginning groove 🔥

Omg no wonder I like 5s. I’ve been listening it from this guy. RLRRL. Staple for this guy.

PLAYS LIKE THE BEAST
TALKS LIKE A BEAUTY

Well, listen to Morgan Ågren. He make strange things with the drums

I think the word he is referring to is elements ✌️.

Alta data tiraste Matt, sos un capo guachooo

how this guy looks and sounds like an uncle but plays drums like a beast ... im confused

If the drums just come to you, you dont need to constantly count and all that... Example matt garstka lol

So I noticed every time it did a close-up of his ghost notes, the stick hit the exact same spot every single time 👀🤘

Thanks Matt for showing us these techniques and leveling us up...much appreciated!!
