  • Very cool!  :-)

  • Two ppl with no ear for good music. I agree with one other I comment I read. I would put you up there with Andy and the others. The playing isnt as technical BUT! there is a lot of substance and catchy melody goin on here. You got a new fan outta me. For ppl who wanna learn how to play stuff like Andy McKee, this is a great place to start

  • Can't believe I didn't catch this earlier... beautiful guitar..August moon style

  • Could you possibly make a tutorial maybe not on all of it but some of it would be great to learn :)

  • @TheMetalboyjosh I would love to if there was enough of a request, you know? I might be able to help you out with the tab

  • excellent performance man

  • amazing!

  • Your sound reminds me of Andy McKee. Love it.

  • that is crazy good, lost for words!

  • Hey Matt... love your performance here.

  • Dude! I listened to a lot of fingerstyle-guitarists' stuff, the classic guys as well as the imitators...that's a bad word...mosot of them do their own stuff and just continue paying tribute by playing songs of their mentors, which has no negative value at all.

    Great feeling, good song material without lyrics, unfortunately!

    Give it a try, or find someone who sings on it!

    4/5, if you put a good singer into it(like me, hehe...come to Germany),

    I'll give you 6/5!

    Greetings by Pianojoe

  • i love this <3

  • Sounds like an Andy Mckee song but much less technical. Pretty cool.

  • Very well done !

    I like it very much !

    Keep it up !

    PEACE & LOVE !

    God bless you !

  • just awesome. fuckin awesome.

  • Nice, a DMB t-shirt and Livestrong hat!  I'm a DMB fanatic and avid cyclist so I really appreciate that. And, as a beginning guitar student, I'm blown away by your playing style.

  • mate.. your inspirational.. you make me wanna play the guitar.. infact, i might just start learning :) thanks

  • For some reason this song makes me want to run to TH 224 and jump into your arms.

    Great song though Matt. Let's jam this weekend. And by jam I mean please play for me.

  • Put some shoes on!!... Jus playing... That vid is totally AwesOmeRRR!!

    -B-

  • MIND BLOWING.....

  • Bravo!

  • Nice sound and phrasing on the guitar man.

  • nice song!!

  • Thanks: good for soul!

    See yoU

  • Nice music

  •  Bravo, fantastic talent, super genius vidéo, 5000000000000000°°°°°°°°°°°°°°­°°°°°°°°°°°°°, thanks, joselito

  • Epic. Love them all. Keep at it. 

  • Fantastic melody and technique! Congrats Matt!

  • also matt, check out the best song i think i might've ever heard, here on youtube.

    john butler trio- ocean live at federation square.

    he has GREAT music. seeing angels is also an amazing song by him.

    just trying to spread GOOD music. thanks

  • is there any way you could do a tutorial of this piece? i think it would be amazing. nothing too in depth, its not necessary, just the tuning, which strings to tune however many frets up/down, and a little run down on some of the beginning?

    i mean, i figure if i learned drifting by andy mckee in half an hour or so, i can learn this easily enough. its just an awesome song, and i'd like to play it when i'm chilling with some friends.

    anyways, it would be MUCH appreciated.

  • i play guitar..self taught..and uhm. if i could ever accomplish 5 seconds of one of your songs. my life would be complete :P

    youre super talented. keep up the amazing work ! :)

    also, question..it looks like youre just tapping on the strings..are you actually like plucking them you make noise come out ? i dont quite understand how this works :P

  • @MaryReynoldsMusic

    Try yourself. Tapping makes noise too! :)

  • @MaryReynoldsMusic The first 1/3 and last 1/3 of the song i'm simply hammering and pulling off, so pushing down hard on the strings so that the note sounds. The middle 1/3 of the song where i'm tapping with my index fingers is a bit different. I'm just hitting the strings where harmonics sound. Harmonics are directly above frets 5, 7, 12, 19. So if I tap above those frets, that's when you hear the harmonic sound. I hope I answered your question! Thanks for the comment!

  • Nice job mate!

  • Oh my gosh, this is one of the most beautiful things I've ever heard.

  • @BillyBrooksMusic

    relaxing. indeed.

  • @BillyBrooksMusic

    what? buckethead plays more standard tuning stuff. i've listened to nearly all of his music i could find. but this has to be some kind of an open tuning. i wish bucket would play more stuff like this. i know he has the talent and creativity for it, by leaps and bounds.

  • Great job congrats!!!

  • I listen to this song everyday, it's so amazinggg it wows me :)

  • Pretty good. All you need now are words.

  • @SupercoolTim1 Nah. Not all music requires words- I prefer mine to be without. Thanks for the input though

  • @DMBalchemy Nice finger tapping. I had a friend, who used to do a lot of tapping on his bass. I fool around with it sometimes, but it's just not my things. Anyhow, you do it well, and it sounds really cool.

  • @SupercoolTim1

    Some songs are meant to be perfections of imiganation and thought.

  • back again...love this!

  • this is ill.

  • not a single dislike. for good reason.

  • r u serious??

    thats awesome ^^

  • This is just awesome, I feel so relaxed when I listen to this tune :) Thanks for the music and keep it coming!

  • Nice....

  • Nice job !!!!! I really enjoyed this. Bravo!!!!!

  • So beautiful my friend....I could listen to you all day!

  • Beautiful! Just simply beautiful!

  • Fantastico Matt!!!!

  • Another beautiful original, im falling in love with your music!! I especially like the chord/harmonic breakdown around 1:27. Very Cool :)

  • beautiful ! Thx Matt

  • Great work. I'm not exactly sure what you call this style--slap/slide guitar? Who cares. I like it. Beautiful tune. I don't comment on many songs but this one--had to let you know how much I like it. This is good stuff! Check out my tunes if you get a chance. Take care my friend.

  • hey. try listening to batman/ alexander supertramp

    its amazing. or try listening to andy mckee, he has countless great songs like this. also look up smilguitar, another good player, though he's much less known. antoine dufour is also GREAT.

  • @BeatManSpank thats exactly what i thought! :D

  • Awesome guitar working my friend...You have a great talent to be able to do that on an acoustic, with nothing but fret and finger tapping...I am very impressed... It takes some people an entire band to produce this sound and you did it all by yourself...I love this sound....You rock my friend...

    And you did it all in one take......BRAVO>>>>

    Keep em comin.... Send me more

    Kris

  • I'm very impressed.You have a great melody with abit of percussion blended in..Nicely done as its fun to watch you play with the way you move your hands and tap with your fingers like that.I've seen alot musicians in restaurants,coffee houses, small clubs,venues ,ect that aren't as talented as you are.Keep going!

    Peter

  • Nice one! Hey the shoes are off. Can you do that with your feet?

  • @WeepingZeeGuitars I've found that wearing shoes is annoying with this song, somehow haha. Its sometimes hard to keep the guitar still, so I cross one leg over the other, then keep the guitar trapped between my heel and stomach. it helps lol. Glad you liked it!

  • nice 

  • wow really sounds good. you've got a cool way to play guitar.

  • Excellent guitar work here!

    Thanks for the send, Max
