extant. is the solo performance project of Philadelphia-based percussionist Josh Laskin Garcia. Utilizing a stripped down kit and drum triggers, they create dynamic sonic environments which combine non-traditional drumming techniques and samples drawn from a diverse range of sources (including found sounds, pop culture detritus, non-western instrumentation, and granular synthesis) to craft narratives through performance.
