I love poly rhythms and I love your teaching! I’d love to see your take on the differences between poly rhythms and poly meters. This has always been confusing to me. So happy to see the new video! Thank you Ken, for this and all your lessons.

Thanks so much for the kind words! It's true, the distinction between polyrhythms and polymetres can be tricky to understand. Some folks use the terms interchangeably too! That would make a great topic for a future video. Thanks!

Great … with this Video and Explanation I am able to better understand the Basics and learn better to transfer it to my Handpan. Cheers …

Very interesting. But where and when is this applied?
