      You get it...this video is just a way more advanced/complicated breakdown of the same concepts from Adam's video. Same principles but this dude can do it so fast that even his analysis is like too much all at once for untrained listeners...he goes through years of learning in a short video.

    Typical of Phonon - the tempo of 122.5 bpm is actually a septuplet on the standard dubstep tempo of 140bpm - he fits 7 beats in the same time he would usually fit 8 for a “standard” dubstep tune, so the bar line will still line up if mixed with other dubstep tunes by a DJ, that or it is a troll - absolute madness

  • @punksterbass
    @punksterbass 4 года назад +96

    Brazilian composer Arthur Kampela has an interesting concept about nested tuplets called MICRO-METRIC MODULATION, i think you would dig it
    Basically, let's say we have a group of eight note quintuplets (5:4), but the last two notes we play as three eight notes (3:2). Now, we have another group of tuplets, but we have eight note sextuplets (6:4), but the first 4 notes of those sextuplets, we play as 5 notes (5:4)
    Since the fractions mutilpy to the same value (5/4 x 3/2 = 6/4 x 5/4), the last three notes of the first group and the first 5 notes of the second group last the same time, so we can move between the two groups with ease, kind of a metric modulation but in the nested tuplet level
    in short: 4 5
    first group (triplet inside a quintuplet) - 1 2 3 (| | |)
    1 2 3 4
    second group (quintuplet inside a sextuplet) - (I I I I I) 5 6
    the notes in parenthesis have the same duration, so we could even pass a new tuplet between these two groups of equal duration notes

      I love this kind of thing. It grooves super hard, and to me is a great example of using rhythm for tension/release. I'm fairly certain Richard Vreeland (AKA Disasterpeace) uses this in a number of his tracks, but I can't recall specifics off the top of my head. More than likely I'm thinking of something from his album "Level."

    i gotta say for composing that while nested tuplets are fun to look at, getting the effect is more fun using nested tempo modulation (the instrument that's playing 'hears' a metronome of a changing tempo while the rest of them hear a steady one). this can be with a free running LFO, or by freezing audio written with actual tempo modulation, easiest accomplished in a tracker. see also continuous Risset rhythms, the tempo version of a sheppard tone.

    Hey Shawn, love the video! Had to watch it over and over again, but it's starting to make sense. Do you mind explaining the concept of slurring? I'm familiar with it on wind instruments, but not on the kit. Thanks!

    Thanks for sharing. This must be a lot of work to write, hear and learn. There is one not so hard and very musical nested tuplet, that comes out when practicing 5 stroke rolls with normal accents on the single stroke. If one concentrates on hearing the accents while filling in the unaccented roll notes as evenly as possible, you can squeeze those accents to become dotted eights (like an accent on every 3rd 16th). Even if your video pushes this concept so far, it is more common and useful as it might appear.

    i think the 7 part is actually in 7/3.5, the producer confirmed the "tempo change" is related from half-note septuplets (that last two bars of 4/4)

    It really is crazy how the tuplets themselves are definitely running at least like 4x as fast as the backing beat but somehow feel slower half the time

    The metric modulation itself is 7:8 and I find that also interesting
    also there was a change of pitch when it went back to 7/4

    Hello Shawn, great playing. More impressively though is your ability to explain this bin-fire of a subject succinctly. Can you help me please. I am putting together a video on polyclaves and would love to know what software you use to display the manuscript. I have got as far as exporting .png from sibelius into a paint program ,inverting the colours but the little curser that follows the music is beyond me currently. Best wishes to you. Pat

      Hi Pat. It's just a screen recording of playback in MuseScore. Then I edit it in FCPX to give it the look it has here.

      @@ShawnCrowder thank you Shawn. I was already giving the negative thing a go. It's far easier on the eye. Keep up the good work. I look forward to checking out your other pieces. Stay safe.
