DarkeSword Posted April 14, 2006 Share Posted April 14, 2006 indeed. 9/8 can be 'felt' as 3/4 with triplet feel, just like 6/4 can be felt as 4/4 with triplet feel. Not 6/4. 12/8. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chavous Posted April 14, 2006 Share Posted April 14, 2006 indeed. 9/8 can be 'felt' as 3/4 with triplet feel, just like 6/4 can be felt as 4/4 with triplet feel. Not 6/4. 12/8. Precisely. Now, sine we are on the subject of meter signatures, I want to see if anybody can guess the meter signatures in this song: http://doulifee.com/prc/Orc/ORC43/ORC43_Chavous_-_Jestoslounge.mp3 I'll just warn you: they are insane meters.

Radiowar Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 no, it's 13/8. really it's more helpful to think of it as 7/8 and 6/8 but yeah Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SSB Posted January 14, 2007 Share Posted January 14, 2007 I made an original song in 14/8 a while back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CC Ricers Posted January 19, 2007 Share Posted January 19, 2007 Listen to the beats. Try getting some drum pattern ideas from there. There are many kinds of time signatures that are uncommon for the Western ear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fishy Posted January 19, 2007 Share Posted January 19, 2007 What makes it 14/8, as opposed to 7/4, or 7/8? The same thing that makes 3/4 different from 6/8. It depends where your accents are. In 3/4 its 3 quarter note beats, wheras in 6/8 its grouped in 2 sets of 3 eighth notes. One has two accents per bar, and one has three. I can't say what it is for 14/8 though. Maybe two groups of 7 quavers :/. Also prizm: Dance of eternity is the best song ever written with odd time signatures. I learnt the whole damn thing, it's so awesome to play.

Emura Posted January 29, 2007 Share Posted January 29, 2007 I came across a rather bizarre time signature while studying some early baroque music the other day. It uses a proportional time signature more common in earlier music: The actual time signature translates to 6/1. It can get somewhat confusing since I'm used to the whole rest having a value of 4 beats in the usual common time, so reading them as just a single beat of rest is odd. Oh, and ya'll might be interested in checking this out: List of musical works in unusual time signatures Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
