RHYTHM TEST! A challenging test for Musicians, Singers & Dancers

[@msmliars908]

I play the drums and have for decades so 15/15. However it’s a great way to describe the subdivisions and beat formats. Well done.

[@qdbldbp]

10/15 I felt it way more difficult than the deaf tone test, but equally fun. I don't know why, but it was very easy to get the 4 last

[@Koraxus]

It basically confirmed what I already guessed about me. I'm better at tone and melody than in pure rhythm

[@weegeerules1]

As someone who is not experienced with playing music or music theory, I was surprised I managed to get 15/15 on this. You did an amazing job explaining what to look for within the rhythm and I was able to use my memory of the examples given to succeed. Fantastic test and learning experience. Maybe I know a bit more about music than I thought I did.

[@that1sketchyguy597]

I've been drumming for about 11 years now and got all of them correct, but this is a very cool and fun way to teach others. Nice video!

[@orlandocorchado1045]

been drumming for 4 and got them all too! Nice job brother :)

[@TiqueO6]

15/15, Been playing for 54 years, Bass and Percussion, not a perfect sight-reader but started reading back in the early days of all that. I would’ve worried if I hadn’t gotten all of these 100%, ha ha! Thanks for putting up some fun tests

[@Kevin-George]

I'm glad you dig them 😎👍

[@musicmania635]

Got 13/15 .. Funny tht answering the complex rhythm questions were easier for me than accents... May be that's because I'm trained in Indian classical music that it uses a lot of complex rhythms... But this quiz was really fun ... You are a great teacher

[@Kevin-George]

Thanks for your compliment Mona! (I had to resist using those old Ajit Khan dialogues cause you'd probably tired of them and might end up hating me lol). Yeah I'm putting out more of these where I'm trying to show a more practical approach to music rather than a theoretical one. Got my 3rd one coming out by the end of the week hopefully :) And I'll also cover some of our Indian classical music vocabulary like our complex rhythms and quarter or micro tones (what we call Srutis).

[@systemout9914]

I also got thirteen but the complex patterns were the hardest and the rest was easy for me

[@THEmaggspie]

Yes I'm the same

[@tonjiyematthew-ibanichuka3750]

I got 11/15 I realized if you could listen to every beat slowly you would be able to get it. And as a dancer, I just used my instincts to feel which beats were pulled or pushed based on if I could make switch moves gracefully. This was fun!

[@ArabellaGordon]

Kevin, I am new to your channel and I loved this! I am teaching starting musicians how to count and this video is a perfect overview of the possibilities. Thank you for what you do, for who you are! ☺️👉

[@Kevin-George]

Aww shucks Arabella:) Your last compliment might of been overkill....but i'll take it :D hehe I'm glad you found it productive:)

I dont undertsand what i have to count for the subdivision test so i was so confused

[@ruffvega]

yayy 15/15 very cool video. the final part was fun :D

[@utharkruna1]

I'm not a pro, but I nailed it all again. 15 out of 15. Though this one was just a bit harder than the last one. It seems that by taking your both tests in music and rythm I discovered my hidden talent. Thank you for the help. I'm looking forward for more of your tests. ❤️

[@ponsoke]

I got 8/15, but if it wasn't for the Push and Pull section, I would have gotten 4/11. That section just made sense to me whereas the others I clearly didn't understand well-enough

[@saintjynr]

Thats funny, the push and pull part is the one that I'm still struggling to understand lol

[@aylenferreyra6010]

Same the accents and the push and pull where the easiest to me, I struggled a lot with the other ones (I got 10/15)

[@GwenMarsh]

Oops, I didn't do as well in this test, 11/15 and could have done with more time to listen to each clip especially the latter ones, it was hard in the nicest way! 😁 Thank for keeping me musically on my toes and I love your Santana influences at the end. Thank you & Keep Music Live! 😍 🎸🎶🧡

[@osamabindiesel3389]

Same, but then again my musical expertise comes from taking guitar classes in highschool like a decade ago, but I’m still impressed that I scored this high.

[@isaiahneilguitaristofficia549]

11/15 is still above average

[@erinic04]

15/15! I am in drumline though so... makes sense. 11 was harder than every other one for me though, almost missed it

[@Blitzypie]

Washed up drummer here. Probably wouldn’t have done so well without it.

[@benjaminmerkel]

I’m on drumline too and i ended up getting 15/15 as well. Maybe doing these tests for beginner musicians just makes me feel better about myself lmao

[@luscao8444]

That was what I got wrong!

[@lamotfanpage7413]

im also in drumline 15/15

[@sigsin1]

Same!

[@Zyph8n]

Awesome! I've always struggled with rhythm and is something my teachers and mentors wouldn't care to teach me, but this video makes a good overview of it. I scored 12/15, struggled a bit on subdivisions and accents, but actually got to understand how complex rhythms works!

[@Kevin-George]

Well done Chris! As far as odd rhythm goes, I learnt this technique of breaking down everything into 2's and 3's from drummers.

[@esmolol4091]

Which is funny, because no song can be played without a rhythm that puts every note into it's enclosed box.

[@helenaforbes2650]

Very educacional! There were a lot of things I subconsciously understood (sort of) and somethings I’ve learned just now! Great video ;)

[@patrickgambill9326]

15/15. This is closer to how I think about rhythm while playing in a band, then how most people teach it

[@Psyciandra]

As someone who has always felt I attached and picked up the beat well in any song, I’m very happy to get 14/15. I had to really listen though as technic of what beat was playing I did not know, your explanations were great in helping me identify each one!

[@Kevin-George]

Nicely done Psyciandra! I'm glad you enjoyed it:) And man the name Psyciandra is so cool!!

[@MegaAlterSchwede]

Also got the 14/15. My only "wrong" answer was on Section 3, Question 4. I didn't felt it as laidback but still as being pressing. However, listening to bands like Tool can show you what is rhythmically possible.

[@nadine5729]

Yay, I got 15/15! I've been playing the violin for five years. I have no problem with tapping, feeling or writing down rhythms. But as soon as I take the violin, I sometimes start to overthink when my pieces are getting more complicated! Maybe I just have to relax and practice more! 😊 Edit: Just wanted to add, thanks so much for these tests! I appreciated your pitch perception test as well. Both tests were fun! 🎉

[@azander1958]

We need more of this man This can literally help our music skills because we're learning things in this type of video

[@michaeldaunt1580]

This is a terrific introduction video. More please. Transcribing songs directly from tapes, cds and old records was tedious 30 years ago in comparison to using wave files with looping and playback tempo controls. Transcribing ability is a huge advantage in learning music quickly and accurately. Sight reading speed becomes second nature.

[@benh8936]

For the first 7 questions, I only got 3... I have never even try to fix this... I already know my problem since the first time, but your video really makes me want to fix this problem... This is just give me a picture about how bad it is... Thanks bro...

[@anica7438]

8/15 not baddddd- also thank you so much for giving me a crash course on making music (I understand your explanation more than my music teacher haha)

[@garrettdesoto1740]

Came here after acing the pitch exam, my musical training earned me 14/15. Didn't trust my gut on Q11, cost me the perfect score :P. Great video! Really explains a lot of the intuitions musicians have to pick up in the nuance of rhythm from the ground up.

[@Kevin-George]

Excellent scores Garrett! I'm glad you're diggin' these little 10 minute trivia runs:) Thanks for sharing your feedback man

[@crysales3667]

I've always been someone who struggled with rhytms, such as dancing or playing instruments. Still got 11/15, I am overwhelmed pretty quickly but I'm good at feeling the "mood" :3

[@Kevin-George]

Nice job Crysales! Yeah learning and teaching rhythm is a bit tricky at the beginning. Dancing and rhythm is easy to feel and follow as a non-musician before we start learning. Then at our first lesson, we are forced to think about it which messes us up. The goal for us is to keep working on it till eventually it all falls to muscle memory and instinct, and then we can finally get back to feeling it again, but with a heck lot more authority...which is required if we want to improvise flawlessly.

[@randomstuff14688]

I love the accents part, defo my favourite bit. I used to play piano and always struggled with rhythms, especially during the graded exams. I'm now starting singing lessons as I love singing. With a lot of replays I managed a 12 and defo found the first part the hardest!

[@Kevin-George]

Well done Izzy! 😎👍 Yeah subdivisions are important. But it's pretty easy to work on by yourself. Just practice counting the different examples on your own, like how we did in the video. You'll get super familiar and will be able to recognize and distinguish them in no time!

[@aritramandal6949]

Woah, i don't even have any knowledge of music and I scored 12/15! The test was amazing. Thanks a lot! It was fun!

[@Kevin-George]

[@hrobert745]

10/15. I missed 3,6,7,8,15. It was pretty hard for me, but an interesting learning experience. I guess it’s why I have trouble with polyrhythms in piano, like 3 against 4, 6 against 7, etc. where the left hand plays one rhythm and the right hand plays the other.

[@theea1985]

Thank you for the tone deaf and rhythm test. I can finally point out my problem, 9/10 in tone deaf test, so yay! I'm not tone deaf. And 0/4 first question on rhythm test, I'm totally out of rhythm 😭😭😭😭😭

15/15! we play in mixed meter all the time in band, so I actually did really well on that last part

Kevin, Thank you so much for putting this into more practical terms! While I am in my fourth semester of music theory, I have struggled with both pitch and rhythm. I got an 11/15 for this test, and an 8/10 on the test about tone deafness. It is certainly a confidence boost scoring that high as I had been told all of my life I didn't have pitch/tone or rhythm! You have got yourself a new subscriber. Keep up the excellent work! 🥰😊

[@Kevin-George]

Anytime Nichole 😊👍 We all struggle with trying to stay in shape. I had moments where I thought I had my rhythm down, and then suddenly discovered there were spots which required major work lol I'm sure you'll have your share of moments and the best tip I can share from my own experiences is to talk and share different approaches and perspectives with other musician friends n teachers. It took me quite a while to understand music as I do now. After years of struggling I finally found out how easy music actually is lol. All the best Nichole 😎👍 Kick some ass!

[@jessygeorge4014]

Excellent exercise Kevin👍. I scored 11 out of 15. It was very interesting as well as a little challenging to find out where I stand ♥️😍🥰

[@jcastro004]

I got 8/15, questions 5-12. Completely confused on subdivisions, and complex rhythms just pass me by.

[@Forkez]

I've never been able to consciously identify or count the beat, but keeping rhythm or falling into one can be done with a second. I can feel the timing, but there's no way for me to push my brain into the mix and get it that way. Any time I try, I start to doubt. I can still keep the rhythm, I just have no way of translating it to a count or upbeat or downbeat or whatever else.

[@algorix8420]

I got everything right except for the last two questions on the groove feel. That is definitely something I've never given too much attention to... and it matters a lot. Thx for the video!

I was pretty confident about my rhythm, and I got 15/15 pretty easily. I've always enjoyed songs with different time signatures, polymeters and such things, and have always been tapping along with music and counting the rhythm or time signatures in songs. Most recent one was Tricot - Dogs and Ducks, where I tried to find the time signature of the verse. I was really happy when I realized I got it right :)

[@Cheerybelle]

After missing questions 3 and 4, I went back and paid more attention. I didn't miss any more after that. Somehow. It did take an absolute ton of focus and effort, though --and listening to the questions multiple times. Question 3 just sounds like a 3+2 rhythm to me. I didn't know what to do with that. I can't parse a 4-beat rhythm from it for some reason. Question 4, though-- That was just a silly mistake on my part. I hear it now; I just hadn't been paying close enough attention at first.

[@RepentfollowJesus]

Thanks for saying this. I feel better ! I'm a killer on typical timing and beats but the last part threw me . Im half asleep and taking pain med for my injury so I will try again later. It will definitely take some concentration.

[@frankiejo6988]

I missed 3 and 4 as well.

[@maikaproduction]

I did the deaf tone first, got 7, but the ones I missed (well 2 of 3 misses) were very hesitant. I was scared for the rythm one since I'm no professional at all, but I've been singing for fun here on yt for a couple of years. I've always feel like I had a good rythm, but this test comfirmed it. I got 13/15, and tbh, the 2 last sections far purely out of feel, because I barely understood a thing of the explaination. Thank you for this!!

[@wacowildcat]

I'm not otherwise hopelessly untalented music wise - but it seems rhythm is a blind spot. Which is also weird because I love music with deep(?) and somewhat intricate rhythms. I hate music that's just thumo-thump-thump-thump-thump... and without any variation.

Don't quit if you enjoy it. Being thrown into a group can be tough if not given enough time to slow down new rhythms. Practice slow...I mean slooooow. And build speed. Once you build those habits and mental pathways it'll get easier. I'm not much of a dancer but I brute forced myself into playing percussion and it's been very rewarding.

A bit tougher than the tone deafness test, i missed the first few getting used to actively thinking about the rhythm. After the first section I scored perfect from then on. Was surprised to find I actually quickly recognized the irregular meters in level 4 and could make something up on the spot comfortably in the jam section (even if it was completely improvised and purely based on feel rather than any semblance of knowledge). Interesting tests. I'm hoping to be able to pick up electric guitar in the near future, so these were really insightful for that.

Not a PRO though because i can't do those crazy complicated "chops, solos, fast shredding licks, high vocal notes" or read "sheet music/score" but i can do those "simple, stay in the pocket" kinda thing 😁 And for question 13-15, i need to listen to your stick count/metronome "accents" to figure it out lol. Keep it up 👍 Can't wait for your next test.

Thanks Trigger! I'm glad you're diggin' these! The next few I'm working on are all about relative pitch. Peace!

n' killer job nailing this one.

10/15 is actually a lot better than i expected because i‘m terrible at playing anything in rhythm or even tapping to a song. Apparently I can recognise more than I thought - i just can‘t replicate

[@angelazeiler6838]

10/15... I'm not surprised. In school I had always problems when we did rhythms, especially with two combined (foot tapping and hand clapping 😵‍💫)

[@Kevin-George]

Well done Angela! I hope you enjoyed this one as well

I'm a drummer so I did it at 1.5x speed. Still got 15/15. Yay.

[@argonwheatbelly637]

Me, too.

[@tigranchtchyan1614]

As someone who always struggled with music, especially dancing, I found out this test quite hard sometimes, contrary to the pitch test, which was easier. Though I got 12/15, which is not too bad I think. Thanks a lot))

[@goatfan9605]

15/15 with only an interest in music theory and no prior musical training! This is the proudest I've ever been of myself.......

[@meika886]

13/15, but hufft it's sooo hard,, I can't understand it instantly, replaying the explanation multiple times until I get the hang of it. Thanks for the effort..

[@Kevin-George]

Good job scoring 13/15. I'm glad the explanations helped :)

[@robertarnold6192]

Got 15/15, and the complex rhythms were by far the most challenging part. Beginning to think I understand music more than I think I do. I don't have any formal musical training.

You sir are absolutely phenomenal! Much love from Brazil!
