In '92 &' 93 that was the bridge between hardcore and drum and bass. Check out Ruff With The Smooth - Art of Intelligence for a great example. So yeah, a hybrid sound I guess 👍 It's all made for fun.

I am kind of a beginner bass player. There was a pause in my rehearsal practice with band for 2.5 months this year (aug - oct). Before that, i constantly found myself stunned when the band intoduces a new material, and the only thing i can "invent" as a bass player was only to play roots. Then, somewhen during those 2.5 months i watched some of your videos (few times each actually) mostly out of curiousity and for entertainment, i wasn't taking any notes or so. BUT! When got back to play with the band again, i found that instead of just playing roots, i can actually make some feeling-good fills and make it up into something that really feels like a BASS line. Thans a lot :) P.S. I've also ownloaded your "12 hacks" PDF, gonna read it soon :)

Hold on. Isn't this an instance of a breakdown where you are breaking 32 16th beats into chunks of 10+10+10+2? As I understand it, a polymeter is two time signatures going together, for instance a 4|4 and a 5|4 polymeter would complete a cycle after 20 quarter beats (5 bars of the 4|4 or 4 bars of the 5|4). On the other hand a polyrhythm would be slightly different, a 4 and 5 polyrhythm would be 5 equally spaced beats playing over 4 equally spaced beats, as if like two different tempos were going on at the same time? Also, I love your channel. Keep up the great work. Cheers!
@HackMusicTheory7 жыл бұрын
Hey hey Anustuv! Thanks a bunch for taking the time to watch and write us a nice comment, we really appreciate you! Great question, too. So first, just to clarify the two concepts: "poly" means "many", and "meter" means "time signature". Therefore, a polymeter is two or more time signatures playing simultaneously. A polyrhythm (i.e. many rhythms), on the other hand, is two or more rhythms playing at the same time. In other words, all the different rhythmic layers in a polyrhythm can be in the same time signature. For example, playing an 8th note triplet rhythm in 4|4 over a straight 8th note rhythm in 4|4 is a polyrhythm, not a polymeter, because there are two completely different rhythms playing simultaneously in the same time signature. Now, regarding polymeters, the time signatures do not need to play all the way through until their 1st beats eventually line up again, you can totally cut one time signature (e.g. the 10|16 in this example) when you want them to match up and start again. This technique is way more fun too, cos it's far less predictable than letting them run their course. Anyhoo, I hope that helps clarify the difference between the two concepts, cos yeah there's a lot of confusion around these terms on the internet. Thanks again Anustuv :)

Excellent video, as per usual! These videos are always so helpful to me. I do have a question about this, however. Alright, so in this video, you demonstrated the concept of polymeters... How does this compare with Polyrhythms then? I have tried to get an answer from several videos/forums about it, and it never ended well, usually just quite a bit of confusion, with person B saying person A is confusing the two terms up and it is just... Well, confusing, lol. Some clarification would be very helpful for me. And i wanted to comment this, when you asked for a number, i originally went with 5, but then i switched to 7, so you were half-right. Lol
@HackMusicTheory7 жыл бұрын
Hey hey ShadowViper001, thank you kindly for watching and leaving such a lovely comment, we really appreciate you! Great question, too. So... "poly" means "many", and "meter" means "time signature". Therefore, a polymeter is two or more time signatures playing simultaneously. A polyrhythm (i.e. many rhythms), on the other hand, is two or more rhythms playing simultaneously. In other words, all the different rhythmic layers in a polyrhythm can be in the same time signature. For example, playing an 8th note triplet rhythm in 4|4 over a straight 8th note rhythm in 4|4 is a polyrhythm, not a polymeter, because there are two completely different rhythms playing simultaneously in the same time signature. Anyhoo, I hope that helps clarify the difference between the two concepts, cos yeah there is indeed a lot of confusion around these terms on the internet. Thanks again ShadowViper001 :)
@ShadowViper0017 жыл бұрын
I think i understand... So with a polymeter, as I have seen in this video, it does not fit evenly in the two measures/bars that you are working inside, you ran out of space. Is that going to be the same situation for all polymeters? that no matter what two time signatures you are working in, be it 10/16 & 4/4, or something else, like 7/16 & 3/4, the two polymeters will always be unevenly divided into each other? I should not say "always" because there are exceptions, of course, but as a general statement, would you say that is true? Then with Polyrhythms... 1. would those fit evenly in a 4/4, or whatever time signature one is initially working in then? 2. I have seen videos saying stuff like "3-over-4" and "5-over-4"... are those polyrhythms? or Polymeters? and they can be more complex than just a single note/hit, correct? My apologies for asking so many questions, and Thank you.
@HackMusicTheory7 жыл бұрын
In a polymeter, you can run the time signatures all the way through until their 1st beats eventually line up again, or you can cut one time signature (e.g. the 10|16 in this example) when you want them to match up and start again. I prefer the latter technique, as I think it's way more fun (and less predictable) than letting them run their course. Regarding polyrhythms, yes they can fit into whatever time signature you want :)

What software do you use for this?
@DaveVedder7 жыл бұрын
They use Reaper: www.reaper.fm
@HackMusicTheory7 жыл бұрын
Hi LJCKILLJOY!, thanks so much for watching and connecting! We use Reaper and are big fans of the software and the company for so many reasons! They give you a free 60-day trial of the full program and it's relatively inexpensive to buy at US$60. You can check it out here: www.reaper.fm. Take care and we hope to hear from you again. Happy Songwriting! Kate :)

Hi Dave! Thanks so much for answering this question, we really appreciate it, as we're getting a ton of people asking about what software we're using. Until next time, take care and happy songwriting! Kate :)

The thing that impresses me most is that you could play such a tricky bass line.
@HackMusicTheory7 жыл бұрын
Hey thanks so much for taking the time to watch and connect Tony, we're deeply grateful to you! Do you play bass?
@Romulusuk7 жыл бұрын
No, I don't play bass, although I was given a bass guitar recently. I do program bass lines on my songs. Btw ... 5.
@HackMusicTheory7 жыл бұрын
Haha! That's awesome! Thanks for sharing Tony. What kind of music do you make?
@Romulusuk7 жыл бұрын
I try to write melodic songs with unusual themes. One of my songs is about a werewolf in love, another about a man soon to be killed in battle.
