ZILDJIAN LIVE!: MATT GREINER “PTERANODON”


For this installment of “Learn the Music”, we decided to try something a little heavier, something that goes by at an amazing speed when you’re watching it live (waay too fast to decipher what’s going on) and slow it down to where mere mortals can follow along!

Here’s YOUR opportunity to watch, listen – and LEARN THE MUSIC to Matt Greiner’s performance in Zildjian Live!, then download the tracks and try recording yourself playing along!

BEFORE DIVING INTO VIC FIRTH’S “LEARN THE MUSIC” BREAKDOWN, BE SURE TO WATCH THE ORIGINAL VIDEO:

This video “isolates” the drum track to make it easier to follow what Matt is playing.
Use the “Chapter Menu” in the play bar to skip to 50%, 70% and 100% speeds
