Matt Garstka playing polyrhythms with the kick drum

Музыка

Matt making it look too easy and that’s not even him playing it at tempo 😳
We filmed a course a few years ago with Matt titled ‘Single Pedal Secrets’ - before he joined DW - where he gives you more input than you’ll need to get your kick drum fast and precise. In a three part lesson series, he shares more exercises including some odd-grouping madness like here to get you playing and hearing all sorts of patterns.
Head to Drumtrainer Online to check out the full course - link in bio - and hop on before our ‘Summer Madness’ sale ends 👊

    That foot thing is hard for me. I don't focus my practices on that. I'm guessing I need to. 😅

    this goes a very long way. much further than just playing the pattern you will think and play differently from learning these concepts! and they're fun and feel very good

    Do odd note groupings like this really qualify as a “polyrhythm” though?

    It takes multiple bars for it to get back to the 1 so yes

    @@ericibaugh8231 I don't think that's correct actually. To my understanding Matt isn't playing a polyrhythm, which requires 2 subdivisions to be played at the same time with the same starting and ending point i.e a quintuplet and sixteenths played at the same time. Instead, I think this is a polymeter, where there's the same underlying subdivision and different groupings are being layered and take 'X' amount of time to resolve

    No that's a polymeter. You can look at it as hihat and snare playing 4/4(16/16) while the kick is playing 5/16

    Beautiful. I don't know musical theory but are those k notes considered faster than 16th notes?

    No these are just 16ths, but in groups of 5.

    @@oli7173Wish I had learned music theory when I was a kid. It would have been so beneficial, especially doing studio work. Took a music theory class in college but dropped the course, I just didn't have the patience. It was so dry, clinical and academic and focused on classical music. Who wants to listen to Mozart when you're playing the Beatles and Hendricks. If they had just taught the class using the music we were listening to it might have been different. They had no clue how to teach music and make it interesting back then.

    Kinda bad advice saying he doesnt know where the snare is gonna fall. You must be able to hear the whole thing as one complex beat in order to perform it. Maybe hes actually not aware of this as this exercise is so trivial for him😅

    I don't think that's what he was saying. He definitely knows where the snare lands. He's just saying he hasn't decided if he's going to play the kick on 3 (the only place the snare lands.) It's more of a creative decision really lol

    Well yeah when you are learning it at first you need to figure it out ahead of time but if you practice it enough then you can just feel it and become aware of it as it happens.
