This MELTED MY BRAIN when I saw it for the first time. What do you think? Can anyone that's watching this video do this technique!? Enjoy! #tosinabasi #animalsasleaders #guitartechnique
I believe the friend that taught him was Evan Brewer, who he played with in Animosity before Evan ended up in the Faceless and later Entheos with drummer Navene Koperweis, who drummed for Animals as Leaders before Matt. Another fun fact: Evan was trained by the legendary Wooten brothers.
Some dude said exactly what he said about how he was practicing it for months and just couldn’t get it down and then bam, he started doing it like he’s been doing it for years
that’s how it was for me. i usually pick things up pretty quickly and since i’m a drummer and it’s so rhythmic i thought i’d get it down in a couple days, took a few weeks, was frustrated for a bit but now it’s like what i just naturally do on the guitar i’m now it’s like a fidget tool now lol
Great video. I tried playing his technique just bow and ended up slapping the string here and there, haha. I am, too, curious how he played with his thumb. Thanks Matt for this informative video, 😀
13 fucking comments on this? seriously? side note if anyone could link me to a video where this technique is show better visually of the hand that would be great. (takes sip of coffee)
Looks like I'm not getting notifications from your channel anymore. Found this one by mistake and added it to my watch later list. I'll catch up with the missed videos within the next days, hopefully.
@@Moakalatte Just finished watching it now and that's an awesome technique indeed! I've always had a hard time with slapping of any kind, whether it's on the guitar or on the bass. Anyway, have you tried this percussive thingy yourself? :)
@@mikeKidLazy I have not properly tried this technique. I'm intrigued to try it more but I just need to actually practise it for long enough for it to become musical and useful!
just use your thumb as a pick duh 🙄 that's the way one of the pioneers (or maybe the inventor) of this technique - Victor Wooten - teaches it. My man wants to look good I guess and tries to overcomplicate it. lame. 😕
meanwhile you're oversimplifying it. The fuck is the point of an "in-depth" explaination then when you leave a demonstration sesh for merely a minute of the audience's time? I don't think its necessary to teach a usually unheard of percussive technique whilst having to credit and c0ckride victor wooten who or whatnot
