The "Matt Garstka" Paradiddle Challenge

Somewhere between geebing out to Matt's Youtube videos and watching Troy Wright absolutely slay his "Polyrhythmic Movements Over a Groove" video (    • Polyrhythmic Movements Over a Groove ...   ) I came up with this vid.

#1: Displaced Single Paradiddle Challenge

Take this stuff slow and build it up one bar at a time. Through repetition you lose the guesswork and you can just focus on the groove and all the layers working together to create a massive morphing triplet train heading straight to planet zontar! Once you start getting it together, grab the guitar loop and start challenging yourself to play this thing along with some music!


Leave me comments here and on Facebook!! I want to hear what crazy ideas you have to take this stuff to the next level and ways I can improve in any way! Thanks for checkin it!
