    The way you choose to visually represent musical concepts through shapes and colors is truly something special. This makes so much more sense to me than traditional notation.

    Meshuggah did a song called Don't Speak on their rather obscure compilation album Rare Trax in 2001, where they switch back and forth between different measures of tuplets and regular 8th notes, although the switches are pretty straightforward and isolated to individual bars.

      I appreaciate what they attempted in TVSOR but I'm glad they went back to their more standard recording method because it feels more Meshuggah. This new album just sounds so precise like master surgeons effortlessly making incisions whereas TVSOR sounded more chaotic and out of control.

    Although not technically "in the same riff", another time I can think of that Meshuggah changed subdivisions within the same song is in future breed machine. They play a quarter note triplet + release riff at 4:30, and then at 4:39 they play a VERY similar but distinctly different dotted eighth pattern utilizing the same phrase structure. One of the most epic meshuggah moments in my opinion. The difference between the two riffs is so small yet so big at the same time. Amazing video Yogev!

    @GuilhermeCarvalhoComposer 2 роки тому +12

    Just for reference: the triplet sections last 2, 4, 6, 8, 4, 12 beats respectively. Very very nice linear progression with the 4 thrown in to mix things up instead of a 10.
    Also, the fact that these are all even-length and that A is even-length (6 beats) while B is odd-length (3 beats) leaves that extra beat at the end, after the last version of C. Such a nice construction all together.
