What's your favorite legendary lick or riff in an odd time signature?
Most dream theatre songs
Music is Win never meant by american football
Money by Pink Floyd
Might be out of place, but the last movement of Dancing Mad from Final Fantasy VI. It switches from 4/4 to 7/8 in every measure.
Jacob’s Ladder - Rush or Erotomania - Dream Theater
Music Theory: _Has a tempo structure_
Tool: wUt
Max Niessl here on youtube does some amazing Tool tabs, and watching how often the tempo changes by just one or two bpm is insane

New album title?
I'm waiting for the Tool and the King Crimson collaboration. They'll probably invent a new time signature... like 7.333/4
That's actually not a tough meter to imagine -- basically 6 quarter notes, then four eight-note triplets. It would probably be written as 22/12, or something like 6/4 + 1/3 and would be vaguely similar to the first example in the "Irrational Meters" section of the Wikipedia article on time signatures. You could also switch it around and write it as 22/8 with six dotted-quarter notes and one half note if you want it to feel like you're stretching that extra .333, or seven dotted-quarter notes and an eighth note if you wanted it to feel like you're chopping off the last 2/3 of a beat.

I would pay to see that within 500 miles. Maybe further.

No. He making this over complicated by this signature counting. I know few people that did go and I've come to the conclusion that they are just parrots. They couldn't write a legendary or even descent lick if their life depended on it.
@@iii978 point taken. As an example Kurt came up with harmonically insane arrangements without really mastering or caring about the theory behind it. But not everybody is kurt, and I believe bands like Metallica, Led Zep, the Beatles, Zappa, and so many others really knew their shit. So it does really help.
It's never too late to learn about music :D

when you understand (theorically) how schism is played, but you can't actually play it right and you keep trying to adjust the measures
i know the pieces fit... I KNOW THE PIECES FIT... *I KNOW THE PIECES FIIIIT*
I can actually play it but know jackshit about time measures or so on. :/
I just go by feel with schism, considering it's hard to play too fast or too slow when you have that muscle memory

So happy to see Frame by Frame called out in 2019. Kudos on the inclusion and break down.
Frame By Frame is one of my favorite songs ever. I've been diving into Progressive music for a couple years now, but slowly. And man, it's the most excited I've ever been about music since I was 10 listening to Linkin Park, Limp Bizkit and Korn.
Small fact: Danny Carey from Tool said on video how Discipline (album) inspired them a lot. That if they ripped off anyone, it was them, that album. This was an old studio interview from the 90s. It's clearly the influence those guitar parts had on Adam when making Forty Six & 2. It's so similar. But I guess if you're gonna rip off a band, King Crimson is definitely one to do it from. 3 fucking drummers when they play live! Insane!
Acually theres a copy of the frame by frame riff in tools cover of no quarter, at the end...
There's a couple of King Crimson's albums that'll blow your mind if you're getting into prog. Give Lizard a try. Also que 80's lineup of KC is amazing, listen to Beat and Three of a Perfect Pair
There are a couple interviews where Primus mention the same thing re: Discipline.
It's a pretty cool album.
Adam Jones, the guitar anti-hero. If his minimalist riffs don't blow your mind, it's because you don't know what he's actually playing.
criminally under rated as a guitarist, even as well known as he is.

Interesting how the Schism is about the breaking down of communication and the whole song is a series of "mismatched" time signatures. Almost as if the two parts used to belong together but now are noticeably pulling apart. "I know the pieces fit 'cause I watched them fall away"
Yup. And check out the significance of Lateralus.
If memory serves Maynard writes the lyrics after the music is more or less done, so one is directly informed by the other.
I was literally going to say the same thing, its like the signature switching from 5/8 to 7/8 is like they are both "one" off from being in sync with each other. Its a so close, yet so far kind of thing. God damn, its beautiful haha. I always find something new with their stuff.
wow holy shit tool are flipping geniuiuses!!
The whole of the Lateralus album is full of weird symbolisms like that. That album is mind blowing to dissect and study

so anything by U2?
For anyone who remembers a little Number Theory, 13 and 7 are coprime so the two riffs will only sink up every 13 * 7 = 91 measures (Least Common Multiple). Kinda trippy.
That was the first though that came tomy mind when I was watching this part of the video...anyone got a clue why in all transcriptions online no one transcribes the second guitar in 13/8? All of them divide both guitars in 7/4 bars. Is this guy right actually? :D
They'd sync up every 91 beats, not every 91 measures
*frippy
KC loves doing stuff like that. The title track of that album Discipline does something similar, Neal and Jack and Me, etc.

This puts another layer of meaning behind Schism. So the song lyrically is about a couple breaking up, two people that used to love each other that drifted apart, and the actual music is also "schismed" into so many different sigantures that seem to drift apart as well.
Lateralus: main riff rotates through 7/8, 8/8, and 9/8.
Correct me if I'm wrong.
It’s 987
Main riffnis 987 and the stanza is im 5/8 xD
Wouldn't 8/8 automatically become 4/4? Maybe I'm an idiot and 8/8 DOES exist.
@@TheSharkAnt i mean yeah, but it's probably easier to count if you have all 8s, than 9/8, 4/4, 7/8.
@@TheSharkAnt On paper, 4/4 and 8/8 are the same, but in practice there is a difference, and it is all about how you feel the beat...usually. The typical way it works is based on what note is felt the most throughout a measure, denoted by the bottom note. If it is based on eighth notes, it will typically feel a lot faster and energetic (or in the case of Tool, aggressive) than quarter notes, which in comparison feel more relaxed and flowing. If you tried to keep time playing Lateralus using quarter notes, you would very quickly lose track of the beat, because it is not intuitive. You do not feel a quarter note beat, you feel an eighth note beat.
Easiest way I can put it is to not think about it too much. If you are musically inclined, I can almost guarantee you will feel it intuitively. Listen to it, let your body react, and take note of what notes your foot is tapping to. If you are tapping out quarter notes, its a quarter note feel. Of course it gets a lot more complicated when beats can be further subdivided like in Schism (5/8 and 7/8 into 2/8+3/8 and 2/8+2/8+3/8), but for most _not_ super complex and intricate music, just feeling it alone will suffice.
*Dream Theater has left the voice channel*
Basically anything by dream theatre blows all of this out of the water.
@@reaganfriedrice5058 Nah fam dream theater has extremely forced changes. Doesn't sound good at all. It's like they're doing it for the sake of it. Doesn't add anything to the meaning of the song and no emotions attached to it whatsoever. Feels like some jazz musicians took steroids and lost all their creativity. At least with bands like tool and king crimson I can feel the passion and emotion reflected in the odd times.
Eg- in Schism, The song talks about a divide between humans. This is reflected in the fact that the main riff which can be compounded to a 6/4 is divided or 'schismed' into a 5/8 and 7/8
In lateralus the main riff has the times alternating between 9/8 8/8 and 7/8. 987 is a Fibonacci number. Maynard's vocals incorporates the Fibonacci sequence and the songs main message is to 'spiral out'relating to the Fibonacci spiral.
See? These riffs actually MEAN something in the context of the song. Give me dream theatre song that does that. Heck give me a dream theatre song that doesn't sound mechanical as fuck.
I think that songs like octavarium are overrated, maybe the only song were the long instrumental parts mean something is A change of seasons
@@karlamellado7299 Hmm I'll have to give that a listen.
@@alekisighl7599 Ok that i do agree with, dream theatres "sound" Is very.... clunky. But I think that's why a lot of people like them, their jumpy rhythms that constantly change Are what make the band. In Stream of Consciousness's Intro (0.00-2.03), There's this 5/4 time that occasionally switches to 6/4, you get this continuious "flow" IMO. Same thing at 3:50 when one of the solo starts, the time jumps between 6/8 and 5/8. this 5-6/8 jump is repeated a few time throught thesong, and i think it gives a stepped flow kinda thing. Most human's Consciousnesses wouldn't be completely smooth, but rather a little jumpy. Still familiar, but a little jumpy. The song "Panic Attack". A vast majority of the song is in 4/4, however there are parts that consists of 6/4, 5/5 and 4/4, that are definately jittery. Later in the song there's a part where it jumps from 12/16-3/4-6/8. In this part the only thing that really technically changes is the drum beat, most notably one of the cymbals, (probably a crash or a high hat or something idk). The bass plays a steady rhythm through this part. This song is meant to never slow down, and the constant _/4 time means the song has a constant, yet is ever changing. Songs like "constant motion" definately have weird jumps, halfway through the song the tempo slows down a considerable amount, only to speed up a little later. "A change of seasons" Is very jumpy as well, I believe that's fitting to the title, but it also is made up of 7 smaller songs which are written by different people, leading to the song feeling a little all over the place. Still a mad song though.

Tool's Schism has 47 time signature changes
Dream Theater: *hold my beer*
The dance of eternity is a f****** nightmare to play
Vitor Nathan Gonçalves and to listen to
It's not the amount of time signatures that makes schism. It's the seamless way it changes through them without feeling forced or really weird.
Let's argue. Dream Theatre, expecially in songs like Dance of Eternity, create pure complexity that just wants to be felt hard and impossible to play (and damn, it is!!!). Tool put a thought behind its complexity, that connects with the lyrics and the meaning of the song (in Schism"I know the pieces fit, 'cause I watch them fall away" while the song constantly skips from 5/8 to 7/8 or, in Vicarious, "I watch things die, from a good safe distance" while the guitar adds sometimes a 1/8 bar to "extend" the riff, make it more "distant")
@@simonebevini4357 hit the nail on the head. Both bands are complex in entirely different ways. I feel dream theatre write complex stuff(which is awesome) because they can and are freakishly good on their instruments. . And tool write the way they write automatically cuz of some sort of tribalism in their mind. It just comes off more naturally when tool changes time signature. Almost like they hit it accidently through the writing. So it's not showing off to a degree. It's just in them to write that way. Or that's my way of looking at it anyway. I'm in no way endorsing that either band is better than the other. Opinions are subjective.

I would love a video dedicated to breaking down Schism
Rick Beato did an episode on that What Makes This Song Great #15.
He didn't get the main riff right, though. The version he calls easy and wrong at 16:37 is actually how it's played in the song (you can listen to the isolated guitar track and verify for yourself)
Rick Beato made the same mistake in his video, which is so weird to me because it sounds completely off to my ears, and these guys are normally on point. Guess they based it on the same bad tabs or something?

@MusicisWin Love seeing you play so many PRSs. Amazing guitars!
Another great King Crimson song is The Howler. Although no proper transcriptions exist on the internet, a quick listening to the intro riff will reveal the time signature to be 15/8. This is counted as 8+7.
Nice avatar 😁
If you're into the king crimson twist of eventually resyncing, check out "clapping music" by Steve Reich, it's a famous contemporary classical piece following the same concept.
Awesome! Thanks for the recommendation
Literally this was my exact thought, Steve Reich has all sorts of phasing going on in his music but "clapping music" is probably the best example since the entire piece is just a phasing rhythm.
Your setup is fucking wicked man....beautiful. love the guitar too
I've noticed that The Rev from Avenged Sevenfold was quite fond of 6/4 in the songs he wrote (he used it in Almost Easy, A Little Piece of Heaven and Save Me), but I'm not sure it actually counts as an "odd" time signature…
Otherwise, that King Crimson example fascinates me… The things you can create by thinking out of the box…

Frame By Frame has long been one of my favourite King Crimson songs.
Have you heard the B'Boom Live in Argentina version? not as clean as the studio version but it's got a great sound to it
Very Reichian. And appeared after Fripp had spent time in New York where Steve Reich is from.
The song choices were just amazing. I love frame by frame and i LOVE 15 step.
Nice feature and analysis! The thing also with the MGMT is the kick hits on 1 and then 3 & 4and it makes 4 sound like the new 1. Very cool groove.
Legendary licks/songs that weren't written for guitar... but sound amazing on one.
...should probably include Jimi and/or Boston's Star-Spangled Banner, etc.
Of course I'd say Jimi Hendrix' version of the Star Spangled Banner, but everyone would expect that. Next, I'd say the Original Halo CE theme. Steve Vai came in and blew the doors off with his version in Halo 2.
Every 00’s synth line

The synth line in 'The Final Countdown' sounds great on guitar.
How about "Legendary Licks You Think Are In Odd Time Signatures (But Are Really In 4/4 or 3/4)"
I'll nominate one my band learned. Until I saw the sheet music, I swore the bridge (the "It's just another Sunday in a tired old street" part) on in "We Built This City" by Starship was in 7/8 or 9/8 because of the weird accents.
The pot by Tool
The keyboard solo of lingus by snarky puppy. That shit is in 4/4. It really does not sound or feel like 4/4.
Anesthetize or Fear of a Blank Planet by Porcupine Tree. They could go in this video too though - both songs have "odd" time sigs and 4/4 sections
Love that clean you played, very cool. 👍🏻🎸
My favorite vid by you so far... way cool stuff
Been watching Tyler for a year. Just signed up for his GSS last week. It's awesome...for $50.00 for the whole year, you can't get better learning material and instruction. (not a sponsored post). Straight from the heart, great job Tyler. (And now I can say, when he was explaining Kashmir and Tyler said "you just move that up chromatically", well I knew what he was talking about! amazing. :) Probably my most fav post so far, now I am heading right to his time signature lessons on GSS..so much fun!
Drop D with Double Denim, so metal it hurts👍
I love your videos, I don’t know much if anything about music but you did a great job of explaining the weird time signatures so even a novice like myself could understand how it affects the sound. I’m gonna be listening for odd time signatures from now on 😆
I was so hyped when he played MGMT and TOOL. TOOL is the best band of all time and Electric Feel is MGMT’s best song I adore it.

I love you for including King Crimson. Absolute legends, and still remain among the most skilled musicians on the planet.
Go see them live while you still can.
They are only playing in three locations in the US, thankfully I live close to Chicago, I've never seen them before live
That's a shame, I paid around $100 for my ticket.
As someone who played for more than eight years before even trying to learn any theory or what a time signature even is, for some reason these kinds of riffs never seemed too hard/weird for me... I always used to just take lots of time to figure out how to play what I'm listening to, lots of repeating or slowing down. All the kids who had money to take lessons looked at me confused when I played anything that wasn't in 4/4, especially my own stuff!
Enlightenment in ignorance.
I can't for the life of me figure out any time signature, yet can easily spot polyrhythms, polymetrics and odd time signs, just without numbers... Meaning i can't actually do anything with that knowledge.
@@iota-09 I know the feeling. Though, as a one man band, I did have to start figuring out some stuff to get recordings tighter, playing along with a click or drum program.

Steve Reich and his Piano Phase endorses King Crimson soo much
This is sooo cool...I like the feeling of these odd timings, sounds so epic !
Thank you so much for the idea of breaking down an odd time signature into smaller chunks 12,12,123 for example. This makes so much more sense in my mind.
have always wanted to see a vid on frame by frame's riff(s), nice!!
I think the "Schism" heavy part at 17:38 is actually 7/8 then 5/8, not 5/8 then 7/8. Makes way more sense to feel it that way.
You're correct, its labeled backwards there for sure, and helps distinguish it from the 5/8 to 7/8 verse, while holding the same overall timing.
I can count it both ways and also as 2 measures of 6/8
And as 6/4 come to think of it.
@@mikefearon3577 You certainly *can* count it either way (as well as any way that mathematically adds up) but it's more about which way feels the most natural and which the composer intended.
Awesome playing as usual!
I love the videos but never realized you were into Tool, you're now my favorite
9:04 Is that a shout out to Stevie T?
Dude, you looked like you were wareing a 👑 , nice jams
Thank you for the info., I was happy to learn the intro to Kashmir, very c c cool
In the gentle giant's "in a glass house" , around 4:15 there is a wonderful example of how catchy odd Times signature can be. The whole riff that beggin at this moment is in 3 parts witch are each in diffents time signature: 7/8, 5/4 and 6/4. And I guess that you kind find more rythmic subtleties in that song, this one is really crazy X) great video, thank you so much to share it! :)
Odd time signatures are standard/traditional in Macedonian and Serbian folk music, often adopted by modern bands.
For example, the band Leb I Sol has tons of instrumentals like that.
Try "Jovano, Jovanke" (7/8, also by Nigel Kennedy), or "Devetka" (9/8).
Also try "Ajde Jano" by Teija Niku & Grupa Balkan (7/8).
Robert Fripp is a master guitar player.
So much so he said fuck standard tuning. And came up with New Standard Tuning. Kinda fucking crazy
Not only is he a masterful guitar player, but he also has a masterful guitar tone. I mean listen to the guitar tone he uses on the intro to 'Starless' and near the end of 'Exiles'. It makes me moist.
Your videos are genius and i love them.
I’m a drummer and writer but godam *I really enjoy watching and listening to guitarist and bassist do their thing!*
Almost makes me wanna learn how to play both bass and guitar...especially bass!
“Frame by Frame” off of Discipline by King Crimson. Excellent excellent choice!
Lengendary licks no one plays because they are “mainstream”
Thanks Buddy ,I was doing it the same way on more than one tune.When I play copy tunes which is rare but I always wont them to be dead on,out of respect of who wrote them.And once again ,great job.
Came here to see some interesting content, ended up picking up my guitar (which fortunately was already in drop D) and learning a sick lick in like 10 minutes. LET'S GO DUDE!!
