    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 really do love this album a lot. Really straight to the point and so “Meshuggah” . Feels like they trimmed a lot of fat on this one yet still expanding with wilder rhythms. It’s grabbing me as much C33, DEI and nothing did

      @@Max_Payn3 I love this album too. I think the first half is flawless, the second half has one too many instrumental tracks and some of thw weaker tracks (Kaladeiscope I'm looking at you) but still great. Overall it's my second favorite Meshuggah album right now after Obzen.

      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!

      I just got done watching his video on Future Breed Machine and he addresses this! It’s one of my favorite Meshuggah moments, too. It’s so imposing and just keeps crushing you. It’s hard to beat the guitar tone off that album.

    The only other time I can think of where Meshuggah combined different subdivisions is near the end of Future Breed Machine /watch?v=PoHa48lqsqE&t=268s
    where they have the triplets and duplets, but it's sort of two sections.

    This ending riff is one of the many moments that shocked me on this album and made me thinking what those people that say this album is just same as their older material mean) And i'm really kinda dumb with such stuff but not noticing loads of craziness Meshuggah put into this lp is crazy)

  • @GuilhermeCarvalhoComposer
    @GuilhermeCarvalhoComposer 2 роки тому +10

    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.
