There’s something about larnell Lewis’s phrasing’s at the solo that makes it sound like it’s hard to catch the 4/4 timing .. I don’t know how he does it . Anyone can explain this ?
His phrasing are going over the bars, meaning that he phrases his licks in a way that sounds like the 4/4 is not there. Maybe because of irregular groupings, or because of metric modulation. Either way, he chooses not to use one or two bars, but in stead spread out the chop over maybe 3 or 5 bars so it sounds irregular, but he will still end up on the 1 at some point. Did that make any sense? Because it sounded good in my head
Funktionary probably because we’re so used to hearing the vamp patterns on the 1.. the vamp patterns however are spread out in 4 bars . So first bar the vamp starts out in 1. Second bar vamp starts on 1. And then he will continue the fill for bar 3 and 4 before the next measure continues for the vamp on 1 again. This is my analysis after listening for months since my previous comment lol. This makes it hard to catch the 1.
@Johnny Channarong Before the solo, the groove ends on the last 16th note of the bar. Then there are 2 bars of rest. Then the first shot of the solo is on BEAT 2 after 2 bars of rest. So it feels like 1, which throws us off. To throw us off further, the shot in the next bar is on the 'a' of 1 (ie, the 16th note before beat 2). If you listen to it and try to stay grounded in where the beat is, despite the shots being in weird places on the bar, and no emphasis on beat 1, you can feel the 4/4.
This makes me feel like I'm a kid again playing old school Sega games in the summer. (not a musician. Just saw Larnell playing Enter sandman after hearing it once and just wanted to see what his other work was like). I'm a fan now.
Tony Robinson (“Daily Chops”, from the UK) transcribed his City Lights solo (the live audience version) note for note. Free on his website. Unbelievable pocket- Larnell sings through his instruments- you GOTTA check out “The Forgotten Ones”; cuz how can a percussionist tell a story like that? It’s haunting
great song, but this mix sounds really bad. I mean, the guitar and the keyboards sound off in comparison with the others instruments. Don't know if it's the camera or the sound engineer that messed up.
These guys should have got hired to do audio tracks in the Sonic movies. It's totally a compliment.
I never get tired of "Change Your Mind". I'd listen to the polka version.
Sound quality doesn’t give it justice it deserves
i mean... its my iphone 7
6:01 larnell attack face
This man really just fixed his clutch mid fill. Larnell the Legend
Most people wouldn't have caught that. You must be a drummer! rock on!

Funktionary hmm I think I roughly understand what you mean . Thanks!
