Like your content. Commenting for the algorithm. My favorite metronomes are drum machines, and loop pedals. But when it comes to live performance with other musicians, listening to them/the drummer, and adjusting dynamically to that, is the most important skill. The most difficult thing for me to be aware of and manage, during a group performance, is playing ahead/behind the beat. Another thing that most live performers struggle with is rushing the beat, ie playing too fast. It happens with the adrenaline/excitement of playing in front of an audience. So it is important for everyone in the band (especially the drummer), to take a breath, relax, and start playing at the tempo, appropriate for the intended feel of the song + the mood of the audience. When I am playing improvised solo piano, I dynamically change the tempo, as a tool to change the mood/feel of the music, as the performance progresses. On a side note, one of the elements that is fun to play with, in experimental (electronic, or otherwise) music, is modulating the tempo with random and/or repeating patterns. The world is a better place, for having musicians, and content creators like you, in it. Keep em coming 🌎🎶☮
Great stuff my friend! No worries about the algorithm, I'm genuinely interested in what people think about music and the subjects I highlight in the videos. Keep the thoughts coming! I plan on making a video dedicated to talking about practicing with a metronome. How to do it, how to have fun playing with it, and the various benefits we get by practicing with it.
Not sure it's something you are interested in, but I would enjoy having a discussion with you, on the subject of experimental music, and algorithmic composition. (not talking about Artificial Intelligence, as that is a whole subject into itself). This is made more practical with modern inexpensive software tools, the easily accessible tech, like iPads, iPhones, Laptop/desktop computers. Also as this applies to one of my interests, modular synthesizers, that can be patched together, and play themselves (and/or with intervention from the performer). Where the parameters are predefined, and the system performs/makes the sounds/music. Sometimes with random elements involved. And also, as used for accompaniment/backing music.
Sounds like some cool and interesting stuff to talk about. If you have something specific in mind that you would like to discuss about that music, let me know.
If you enjoyed the video, please help support the channel by liking, commenting, and subscribing. Thank you.
I'm subscribed, like all of the videos I watch, and as know I comment a lot. Wish more people would show their support!
@@james-h6t8c Thank you!
The advice you offer is gold for musicians looking to improve. It's pretty ridiculous that this only has 4 likes and 23 views.
Great video, Tyson!
Glad you enjoyed it!

for some reason, you're inspiring me to practice more. I guess it's your enthusiasm, and you seem like such a nice, down to earth guy.
Great to read that I'm inspiring you to practice more. And thanks for the compliment.
@@TysonGraf thank you
Amazing video
Glad you enjoyed it.
Good takes
Cool.
