  • This video teaches you exactly how to break down a 7 against 11 polyrhythm, and play it. Why? Because memes can be a way to musical aptitude.
    It should have been sponsored by 7-Eleven, but wasn't. Oh well.

    If there isn't a 7-eleven near where you live, don't worry! Just do the #the711challenge near any small grocery store or convenience store. Through the power of 7:11 polyrhythms, all stores are 7-elevens.

      You used Mike Chen from Strictly Dumpling! I subscribe to his channel too and I'll bet he was talking about the 7-11s in Japan as they're famous for great food. I love your channel by the way. I'm a pianist and have great difficulty with poly rhythms. I very much appreciate your insights on music theory. Thanks for such an interesting channel!😃

      @Jeff T Interesting, all I see on your channel is music from *other musicians,* yet you're talking shit about a highly skilled professional musician who actually creates music. By the way, lots of classical composers were shitposters of their time - take Mozart, for example, who created pieces such as "Lick the inside of my ass!" (roughly translated, it's "Leck mich im Arsch!", literally "Lick me in the ass!") and "A Musical Joke" ("Ein musikalischer Spaß").

      I agree 100 percent. It really feels like a music track now... Samples ( 7/11 videos), layers (Each location of Adam continues what the previous Adam said, like a voice), and cohesion by making the point of the video wrap back to the introduction of the video, along with creating a real musical track that is an example of what the video is demonstrating.

    This is a gratifying and vindicating video. My music education did not include any practical tips for hearing or performing precise polyrhythms other than the 3:2 and 4:3. Anything else was handwaved away as "rubato," and for some styles of music that was fine. I worked my way up to clockwork versions of 3:5 and 4:7 by myself, using many of the same strategies described here.

      hey i learned this stuff many years ago, one of my first experiences was The black Page of Frank Zappa and next some works of drummers like Bill bruford and Mike mangini, in fact i printed a Berklee web Page all about developing independence with metric modulation where they analized a brufordss tune that has implied metric modulations.. until i met chris dave i was developing a way to improvisation with pollyrhythms, then i realized that in history we used only 10% of the rhythm palet available... any binary o triplet o quíntuplet o septuplet and so on rhytm can be reconstructed 'inside any other' polimetry (for example in 11:7 would be funny if its used in a tune in 7/8 where you can play triplets grouping the notes of the eleven pulse) and whith only that, and the correct way to internalize for a jazz way to improvisation, one can slowly learn to figure out how to play any rhythm in any tempo, maintaining the original tempo! i have barely seen other musicians and composers that could use the académic notion of metric modulation like Chris Dave in a context of improvisation, with full full acuraccy even mathemathically, and the fact that he just throw those modulations like an emotional jazz musical exploration

    Adam is like _that one guy_ who you go to meet for interesting explanations for things, but as he goes into the finer points of "the lick", his house starts falling apart because he kind of forgot about the oven, the shower, the lick, the oven and the fact that his house is mostly built of cardboard and now you're trying to understand his explanations to the best of your ability while the house and the world around it devolves into a post-modern artistic mess as Adam masters the art of not letting chronically falling down the stairs interrupt his straight nine hour *BASS* practice sessions with art critics gathering around and trying to rate the quality of the jazz music that isn't even being produced at the moment. The post-credits scene is definitely David Bruce with an eyepatch breaking into what's not left of Adam's home with Ben Levin and informing him that they're going to create a new composer team. Man, good times. Best episode of Seinfeld I've ever witnessed.
