Is it Possible to Make Techno in Odd Time Signatures?

[@JannisLeWolff]

Thanks for watching! Be warmly invited to let me know about cool electronic music you know in odd time signatures 💚 Also: if you like videos about making odd meter beats, let me know as well and I might make some more of these 👀

Man, when the woodblock sound gets added, this really starts to pop. I've wanted to hear something like this for some time, interesting work!

Hey, thank you :) really glad you liked it!

Rock on Jannis! 🤯🤟I am defenitly all in for more odd time signature, polyrythm, and polymeter videos on your channel. Keep up the great work! :)

check out "Hallucinogen - Snakey Shaker" - it switches to 3/4 around the 2:16 mark

Thank you for a clear deconstruction. Subject is more than of mere interest. It's a kind of rabbit hole, but also the direction to the authentic music. Could you please explain how this particular pattern in 7/8 can be interpreted in 7/8? is it possible? Or some percussion hits will be moved for this purpose? 🥸

Hey, thank you- really glad you liked it :) But I don't really understand your question. Interpreting 7/8 in 7/8?

[@alexdiakov_ambient]

I see 7/4 in the heading. When I choose 7/4 signature in Ableton the count-in sounds different from 7/8, which is 2 times faster. For me it is a bit confusing. So let me ask differently - are 7/8 and 7/4 same signatures? And if not, will changing the signature to 7/8 in your particular track here bring any changes? Or opportunities to make the beat more detailed or so?

Almost all venetian snares is in odd time signatures

[@JannisLeWolff]

Thanks for sharing, they are amazing! 🔥

But why?

[@JannisLeWolff]

Just fun to try? There is so much music out there in 4/4, so I feel excited to experiment with other time signatures sometimes.
