Meinl Cymbals - Matt Garstka - Artist Concept Model Temporal Stacks

More info: bit.ly/3EMECFP
Together with Meinl artist Matt Garstka, we developed two new Artist Concept Model Stacks: the Temporal I and Temporal II Stacks.
The Temporal Stack I is made from an 8" Byzance Vintage Splash over a 10" Byzance Dual Splash, and is the lower pitched of the two stacks. The higher pitched Temporal Stack II consists of a 10" Byzance Trash China over a 10" Byzance Vintage Splash.
"I mainly use the Temporal Stacks within complex groove and chop patterns. Their dry, trashy, staccato sound allows them to get in and out of tight spaces quickly. The stacks can absolutely be used as timekeepers, but the fun lies in orchestrating these into rhythmic patterns which will for sure open up a lot of creativity."
- Matt Garstka

Stack sounds killer! Snare sounds amazing! Absolutely one of my favorite drummers…But…enough with the Covid quarantine man-bun / ponytail. Everyone has been able to get their hair cut for like a year now, late night show hosts are wearing suits again…quarantine is over…find some scissors, some timers, a barber, or a crack head with a blade sharp enough (he’ll cut it for free) lol!

[@ozzku]

I personally really like his current haircut, tho I might be a bit biased since I have long hair also.

[@BalthazarMaignan]

They sound great ! But i don't think i'll buy them, i don't have anough money heh SAD

[@janofe2232]

Am I the only one who thinks most of the recent stacks sound the same? How many more artist stacks do we need?

[@ozzku]

I do somewhat agree. The temporal stacks and the Luke Holland baby stack sound pretty similar, but they do have differences. The temporal stacks have a rougher and dryer sound and the baby stack has more body to it.

Okay but having Matt Fucking Gartska demo how good your cymbals can sound is basically cheating, you could be advertising Home Depot buckets and he would make magic happen

[@Merlincat007]

They sound good but not any better than any cheap b20 thin splash and or mini china stacks. Like wuhan or the insanely cheap WHD ozone splashes. Stacking removes most of the differentiation that you can hear between cymbals outside of a stack.

[@cadben]

Not true at all. The difference between two well matched cymbals in shape, quality and characteristics and two cheap cymbals thrown together is enormous. Go to a music store and have a try with different pairs and you'll soon see. Cheap or mis-matched stacks sound horrendous, these are entirely the opposite

trends?! drummers have been using stacks for decades. Combining things together to create a new sound is part of what drumming is about. Don’t throw away the possibility of embracing new or unusual sounds because you want to be some elitist gatekeeping child. Completely ridiculous mindset to have, totally nonsensical

[@hansoloist9756]

@@ploppoo95 yeah, sure. They’re great if all you do is solo like a kid in mommy’s basement. But if you actually play music, they’re useless. When you grow up, you’ll understand what I mean. You have no clue who you’re talking to son. Get lost.

[@ploppoo95]

@@hansoloist9756 buddy i have been teaching and playing drums for many years I can assure you whoever i am talking to is no more qualified on the subject than myself. I actually watched a video of Dave Weckl using a beautiful sounding stack in the early 90s the other day. The fact you are opposing the choices of some great drummers just because you think it’s a “trend” is ridiculous. i can tell you’re one of these dudes who’ve been playing in a shitty cover band for years and thinks everything has to be 4 on the floor with no forward thinking ideas. Well music is art my friend and art takes on new forms daily. Stop clinging to your dead traditions
