Weirdest Time Signatures

[@noel6024]

Doing a small number/16 is basically a cheat code because you can just make it feel like tuplets lol

[@phonetyx]

6/16 is basically just triplets. glad he switched to something else

[@gerardjansens1748]

@@phonetyx yeah i was thinking the same but i dont know what he ended up with now the synth in the intro was doing something diff then the drums i am so confused

[@phonetyx]

@@gerardjansens1748 i think he just ended up with 7/16 but treated it like 4/4, just emphasizing the ones

[@jorntimmer7812]

@@gerardjansens1748 I think the arp thing still followed 8/8 / 4/4, you can see it in his midi that follows the chord prog, it shifts by one note every time so if you solo'd that it'd just sound like your everyday 4/4 prog. He had a nice drop tho, yes it mainly had a tuplet thing going on but otherwise the edm feel quickly falls apart a bit.

[@gerardjansens1748]

@@jorntimmer7812 yea i thought so i think it sounded really sick i wish i could sound design my chords stabs like that.. ima watch this again and try to replicate

[@fgrey-]

i love odd time signatures, they really help me get out of creative block

[@mwljn]

you should upload your bishbattle tracks somewhere, like a separate soundcloud or something, they go too hard to be buried in a 26 minute video

[@patmw]

Agreed

[@TheCJRhodes]

I love genres that tend to use changing and weird time signatures, like Math Rock or IDM. Hits some deep hidden dopamine receptor in the recesses of my slowly smoothing and aging brain.

Sorry to be that guy but this ain't weirdcore (I get that you were probably joking). A good example of weirdcore would be something like もぺもぺ. :) Edit: btw you should be able to get the video I'm talking about by searching for "mo pemope".

fun fact there's a song which is 9 minutes long and has around 250 time signature and 200 bpm changes (there's officially a 0/0 and a -3/4 time signature as well ._.) song is konran shoujo soflan chan by camellia and nanahira if you're wondering (not on spotify)

[@jakezepeda1267]

Wtf is -3/4? I'm so intrigued.

[@1qxd]

Time signatures like 7/16 become a lot easier if you think of it as a measure of 3/16 + a measure of 4/16

[@killermetalwolf2843]

breaking it into 3s and 2s is always the plan

[@lucamega1212]

you know what would be a cool challenge: you listen to a song 1-3 times (depending on how difficult you want it), then you try to recreate it as best as you can without being able to listen to it again would be fun to watch!

[@withoutdaysofficial]

[@liammeyers6725]

this needs to be released somewhere pls bishu

[@TheWhiteLocust]

Bishu’s 7/16 track is so fire. Should be on your album.

"The Adidas arrangement" had me dying laughing LMAO love these, keep it up bro

[@waffledog7756]

This was super fun to watch! Please do this challenge again with different time signatures!

[@BrickWolfy]

i legitimately need this song on spotify

[@AnxietyOpossum]

Man, this new King Gizzard album is weird

[@dubaru0]

a way easier way to write wacky time signatures (for me at least) is to write in compound time, so like breaking it down into smaller bits. been writing a song in 13/4 for a little bit and I basically broke it down into a measure of 5/4, then two of 4/4 (obviously there's other ways to break it down that's were the fun part is). basically makes it feel like you have an extra beat every three bars

[@robbydubbs9670]

100% agree. I'm a guitarist and that's usually the easiest way to break down songs with goofy timing for a solo or something

[@Eve.with.a.Y]

the hack for weird time signatures is just breaking up the pulse into smaller more manageable ones, I have a song I made where the pulse is essentially *7/4 6/4 7/4 8/4 - repeat* but it still feels surprisingly followable, it’s just very fluid and has different melodies overlapping across time signatures

[@bengtnowak8702]

Now I want to hear it

[@Eve.with.a.Y]

@@bengtnowak8702 I probably made it sound a lot cooler than it is😭 it’s just a tiny demo right now and needs actual live drums instead of the preset ableton kit I used to get the idea down, but I just put it up on my channel

[@the3dotsguy...610]

I dont think 6/16 counts as odd time signature... Its literally just 6/4 or 3/4 but with a different context... And thats literally the second most used time signature there is :/ Edit: false alarm it was changed haha

[@trxpedminds3119]

only 9 minutes in so maybe he realizes, but half his instruments are not in 7/16 LMAO

[@AdamSoundOfficial]

yeah...

[@BTTRSWYT]

Personally, i think 13/16 is the goofiest time signature out there, with the possible exception of mixed time signitures
