The 7 8 gives almost natural live groove to the drums, sounds fresh probably because it's not something I hear or do alot.

I love the groove of 7/8. I think it feels speedier because it always skips one 8th.

@@gehteuchnichtsan7911 I might of actually done this more then I thought, listening back to some of My stuff is definitely not 4 4. I dont really think about it I just do anything I feel like. I dont think about the chords I'm using either I just play randomly while recording and then listen back for anything that sounds good and can be expanded on. This is exactly what Elton John said He does.

Yeah! It's a mix of 4/4 and 3/4 (waltz, like), so, sounds familiar...

My production is hard enough at 4/4 But at least this was inspirational.

To me, when a beat is in 4/4, it just feels like every bar is a sentence. With odd time signatures, it definitely feels like one long stream of "talking", as opposed to a period every 4 beats.

Try this again, but this time think about breaking up 7 into smaller parts; my favorite is 2 - 2 - 3. It will be easier to follow when you have the rhythm in your mind to begin with. Great idea to break out of what you know, it turned out great!

Yes .. I would agree

just wanna say that your filming skills are also inspiring as like as your music.

Love 7/8, swings great, some of my favorite breakcore/jungle tracks are almost exclusively in 7/8. artists: Venetian snares, acrnym to name a couple, use 7/8 frequently.

Anything not 4/4 hurts my brain. Or at least when I’m producing it, that is. I was just making a song with my church band and one of the artists made a song with partial 4/4 to 2/4 and the chorus bleeds into the verse (and vice versa). I am all self taught and everything I understand is 4/4. It’s forcing me to grow. I got recommended your video in the perfect ‘timing’ 😂 great video

I'm sure 3/4 won't hurt your brain. Alot of songs are in 3/4 and it's very easy to catch on when producing it. It's basically 6 counts with the snare on the 4.

God timing brother

7/8 is usually counted in "groups" of eighth notes. 1-2-3 / 1-2 / 1-2 is very common (here's an example of a "beat" I made that switches time signatures, but starts in 7/8 counted 1-2-3 / 1-2 / 1-2 kzread.info/dash/bejne/fImetpRvj9LLgqw.html) I would consider counting 7 quarter notes as 7/4.

We on the Balkans call that a regular day. 😁 7/8 , 9/8 , 11/8 ...all folklore.

​@@armchairfm hey, another turkish guy here. you can check "Moğollar - 7/8 9/8 (1975)" which is a song that alternates between 7/8 and 9/8, that's a really well-known track which is used in most of the turkish movies in 70's. in case of 9/8 rythm, there are so many examples in turkish folk music because of it's danceability i guess. a great cover of the anonymous folk song "Mavi Işıklar - Çayır Çimen Geze Geze (1966)" can be a good example for it. you can look to the Anatolian Rock Revival Rroject youtube channel for deep dive. hope you like them!

You're a great inspiration Matt, thanks for giving us an insight in your production process!

Finish It!!😉 Beautiful bars Matt - love your vulnerable and adventurous spirit in this vid. Thanks for sharing - it is super refreshing to see the subtleties in a similar workflow. We have a couple of "odd" meters in the "maybe" folder and cant wait to polish something off with the right touch. You've got it already. 🎄❤‍🔥

The algorythm showed me this video and im glad it did. Love your musicality. Subbed and looking forward to the next.

This is amazing. Honestly I was getting tired of making music these days since all my beats end up sounding the same, but I realized that I can spice things up by changing time signature or even tempo in the middle of a track. It's like I'm learning to make music all over again and it feels great!

i really enjoyed watching your process making this beat. Definitely makes me want to experiment more with my own stuff.

Nice way to experiment and do something new. The beat came out nice. The video gives me inspiration to try different time sigs.

This is awesome!

bro this is so sick, helping me so much just in how you think about producing, articulated super well too thank you man it's gonna help me with this album I'm makin!!!!

Really cool live feeling time signature and vibe!

Sweet video bro and love the chill setting and presentation so big thumbs up! I think most 4/4 music sounds so machine like and i always go HAM with the repeater on all my hi hats and kicks and then after im done im cutting it down into a groove.

First time watching one of your vids. Awesome work, very professional but also simple enough to engage a broad audience. Definitely a new sub here. Great inspiration.

Excellent love-it !!!

I made beats for a solid 10 years and I sometimes miss it. The business killed my enthusiasm almost completely when I was starting to work with bigger artist. I made many mistakes along the way but this makes me want to compose again. Thanks for sharing.

This is my introduction to your channel and I must say that I love this kind of content! Please keep it up!

I love 7/8 as well. I have a super simple drum machine (volca beats) that has a nice “last step” function that lets you easily create odd meter time signatures. It’s so fun to discover grooves in irregular time signatures. I love syncopating rhythms right before the 1 to funk things up even further. I have some lofi vids on my page! A number of them are in 7/8!

You are putting language to how I think and how I produce...love it. Thanks for doing this. Yeah...this is 🔥

Thanks for the inspiration mate. Awesome groove! I just did my first 7/8 beat in my ko II sampler after watching this 👍

Really beautiful piece of music! Wouldn't be an easy thing to try rapping to this. Even challenging to count. Anyway thanks for putting this one out, I kind of been looking for beats with odd time signatures from time to time. Peace

I love the non-traditional approach! Not immediately going for a 2+2+3, or 3+2+2 or 2+3+2 feel (I'm classically trained, so I live and breathe these non 4/4 time signatures), is really inspiring! It helped me push out of my box of always trying to follow my in instincts, when it comes to harmonic related time progressions, and placing a chord on one of those larger beats, with the drums instead of just the drums to help the listener follow along was quite refreshing! Thank you for sharing your time and talent! Much bravo!

Great work man - subscribed! For the MIDI kick, you can also try a ghost sidechain where the MIDI track for the kick is muted, but bussed to the channel that you want sidechained. The MIDI signal triggers the compressor without playing any audio. Might simplify that mixing piece when layering kicks. Anyways, excited to hear more!

Genuinely excellent content. Congratulations. Informative, entertaining and soothing.

Love the 7/8, mainly because of turkish art and folk music. 9/8 is another good one! That said, for newcomers, 3/4 may be more familiar to play and listen to. It's not as radical as 7/8, but not as overused as 4/4.

ive listened to so much stuff in 7/4 and 7/8 that it almost sounds more natural than 4/4 at points, has a very unique tension and release to it that you just cant get get in 4

i love 7/8 so much
