Okay, i admit i clicked NOW because of the thumbnail. Thank you! This was very informative - again! You are such a fantastic teacher, and as soon as they are old enough to understand english, all your content (the informative ones, the musical ones they know already) will be on the program. Hope to see you!
All the drum information I’ve been craving for well over 6 months in one masterpiece video. Like literally everything. Thank you so much for making this 🙏🏽
This is the best explaination of Rythym i've ever seen. As a person who has Disabilities this was the most clear cut, well spoken, non difficult to Interpret video i've ever watched. Thank you.
I'm a percussionist and I own two Flexitones. They are painted black so they are almost invisible when played in a dark venue. This often means that people can't see what is producing the sound.
I played a song in symphonic band that was a mixed meter between 3/4 and 6/8. It was like DA da DA da DA da | DA da da DA da da | DA da DA da DA da | DA da da DA da da
Literally said "This is great" out loud while I was scrolling through the comments and as soon as the words left my mouth I saw this 😅 Could not agree more!
Great video! So many great insights. Anyone told you before that you are a great writer? I feel like your actual script it really strong. Intro and the delivery hooked me immediately.
The video is perfect for playing in the background while scrolling through comments seeing the people trying to claim that, somehow, 'acab' promotes hatred and violence more than, y'know, the 'c' in acab are infamous for. Truly amazing! Also some parts of this video feel like a modern version of This Is The Hook, and I love it.
I think this is one of the most complete (for beginners) and concise video on the subject ! Great job ! I knew about the polys but your video helped me spot the differences between polyrythms and polymeters more clearly ! thank you :)
Congrats on the well made educational video. It's a high quality one. A lot of practical examples makes it very useful for beginners. At lest that's how IMO good teachers teach. 20+ years ago I was learning such things by myself, while composing music in trackers. Cheers. :)
I do know most of this, or did, but it's so good sometimes to have things reiterated to firm up ideas we already have stored away somewhere. Going entirely by instinct, I tend to do the same things over and over and fail to access parts of my prior knowledge. Thanks for this.
Absolutely top-tier content. Sincere thanks for putting this together, man. And as an addendum - your motion graphics/graphic design skills really elevate the video. So elegant and clear. I used to have a job making classroom science films so I really appreciate this shit.
Great video, a lot of these things I know by feeling or intuition so it was so cool to see them with neat motion graphics, I can't imagine all the work you put in it to handle all the timings.
Great video. Very informative and easy to digest/note take. I've been producing various genres of Electronic Music for over 12 years and still find myself coming back to the fundamentals of rhythm, and song structure.
Pausing midway to say - this is another truly phenomenal resource you’ve given us all! Thank you so much, this is incredible stuff. Your ability to turn dry concepts into understandable & interesting examples is awesome.
I was born in 1990, since 2003 since I downloaded Fruit Loops (Not FL) ;) I make music as a hobby. I learned by myself by trial and error, advice from a few forums on how to use the program in a language I didn't understand (English is not my native language. Many years later YT tutorials appeared.. obviously I developed but I always regretted not going to music school. After your film I feel like I just graduated, that was something, that riddim that I was missing
One of the best tutorials on rhythm I've ever seen! I've been playing music for years, but have often struggled with rhythm; I think the understanding I have now of some of these concepts is going to be huge for me going forward!
I just wanted to say "thank you!" I think this video helped me to understand the basics of drums better than any class I've taken to date... And I latched on to the "A-B-A-C-A-B-A-D" way of doing drums.
Best video on rhythms I've seen. Hanging with it for a while now, studying it and recreating its concepts. Thank you so much for putting it out - fantastic overview!
Love how this video can translate to other forms/genres of music! Would love to see a video like this that explores rhythms of hardcore genres like grindcore and powerviolence
That was excellent, learned a lot, it's like I've done it all but also done none of it, filled in a lot of holes in my knowledge and led me to what I should be learning and focusing on next.
Dude .... i am mainly a guitar player ... however you said in this video everything I did .... "instinctively" did when it came to creation of Rhythms .... especially for Electronic Music .... But you Put it "In theory" that I can now apply to "logically" to my music ..... as opposed to .... well "instinctively" ... Thanks for sharing all the Information among us fellow Musicians . .... Great Soundpacks ... BTW 🤩🤟
I would think after 20 years of djing id have committed this to memory, and some ways I have but still find myself coming back to the subject for an alternative or fresh take. Nice video :) especialyl now im trying to make my own music
This is so helpful, some of the details that Jeremy explains simply are not covered anywhere (as far as I know, and I watch tons of educational music videos). I really struggle with drumbeats more than with melodies and harmonies because there is less good theory around. I now have something very concrete, even more concrete than the excellent histories of jungle and techno. So if this isn’t going to help me writing better drum beats, nothing will. Thank you!
Thank You Jeremy. Arranging drums is something I’ve always been lazy to do on my tracks. The ABAC - ABAD sounds like a simple and effective way to create enough variations on a track, I’ll always remember that now :)
thanks for this one, i always struggle with my drums even after 15 years of making music no matter the genre, so its nice to get these kinds of detailed yet easily digestible refreshers to help me remember to not overthink things plus ive been binging your channel again lately so its extra nice to see it now lol
Happy to be a patron! Videos like this one keep me excited about my own musical journey. I've done this before in a tweet back when I was on twitter ages ago and here I go manifesting again. I think you're a great teacher Jeremy, and I think you should look into working with Complexly (the Crash Course people) on something. Keep on keeping on man.
This was so helpful! Rhythm has been a sticking point for me in both my playing and my production, so this primer has given me a lot to think about and research!
Really enjoying this style of video. It plays on your strengths: teaching, experience with the matter being taught, and a very pleasant voice and cadence. I hope these are enjoyable to produce for you, because I'd like to see more but not at the 'cost' of the OP-1 videos (which I enjoy for the same reasons).
This was really good. Informative, but just generally delightful to listen to - you're continuously a wonderful creator and presenter. (Anxiously awaits the sequel video, rhythm with Max Blasterson)
Finally a video that explains why I've got more than 20 plugins I put under "drums". To be fair, most of them are from [Native Instruments] Komplete, so yeah. 2:37 I'd considered them 4/4 dotted: exactly as you put each beat a la 4/4 have three instead of one. Just like a dotted note. 4:01 I'd say this is progressive [house], judging by the arpeggio - anothe staple of progressive.
“It’s the shit you don’t hear” You ain’t kidding tho it be like the 2nd or 3rd listen when you start picking up on that “shit you don’t hear” that makes you keep coming back. I fw that beat too that was nice

I was munching a snack when I hit play and now I'm chewing pretzels in time with the demonstrations.

Wait till you fart, you will hit a B flat.
Hell yes
I'm a percussionist and I own two Flexitones. They are painted black so they are almost invisible when played in a dark venue. This often means that people can't see what is producing the sound.
I was just thinking of this because intro to theory classes only barely scrape the subject. big love.
Todays public service brought to you by Jeremy Blake. Thank you sir, I feel so much more informed.
One of my favorite things in music is that 3/4 and 6/8 are completely different time signatures even though they are exactly the same thing.
The difference is that 3/4 goes 1+2+3+ whereas 6/8 goes 1++2++! Same number of 8ths but different strong/weak beats
The difference is "feel"
I played a song in symphonic band that was a mixed meter between 3/4 and 6/8.
It was like
DA da DA da DA da | DA da da DA da da | DA da DA da DA da | DA da da DA da da
Same with 4/4 and 8/8. ||+|| vs |||+|||+||
math
This is great.
You’re great.
These two and an MPC
Literally said "This is great" out loud while I was scrolling through the comments and as soon as the words left my mouth I saw this 😅 Could not agree more!
Can’t believe I missed that one. We all love you. Probably because you’re so smart and good looking. Or the rest. Something along these lines 😅.
Great video! So many great insights. Anyone told you before that you are a great writer? I feel like your actual script it really strong. Intro and the delivery hooked me immediately.
Thank you!
Agreed. Everything is in point here
20:00 inspiring stock footage choice
Jeremy, finally someone that explains time signatures in a way I understand. Thank you! Been looking for this FOREVER.

I AM smart and good-looking - and I surely will use this tutorial for years to come for inspiration and learning. Thank you!
😂 same 🎉
I genuinely wish I'd had this video when I was a musical novice, it'll be a great resource!
I’ve been at this for a while and this is the clearest and simplest explanation I’ve ever seen.

Clicked on vid to see the comments, got distracted, couldn't be bothered to try to forget about it and watch the video.
I would think after 20 years of djing id have committed this to memory, and some ways I have but still find myself coming back to the subject for an alternative or fresh take. Nice video :) especialyl now im trying to make my own music
Dude, this totally took me back to elementary school music class explanations of rhythm… I LOVE IT!! ❤
“Tah tah tee tee tah!” 😎👌
THUMBNAIL!!! Also, I am LOVING these new vids you have been producing. Thanks !!

I subscribed to your channel just because of the thumbnail. Thank you.
this is the best explanation of the fundamentals on the internet
Honestly one of you're best educational videos, so well organized and explained. Keep it up!
Great video and really helpful as I get (back) into making music and having fun with sound.
trying to get into music and this helped a ton, thank you
Didn’t know I needed this. I’ve unlocked a new world of exploration! Thank you
HY-RPE2 reminds me a lot of my favorite drum sequencer for Ipad- Patterning 2. This whole video should be in a classroom. Great as usual Jeremey.

ive always felt weakest at drums. this is exactly what i needed explained
this is one of the best videos i’ve seen all year
This was a seriously good video - entertaining, well produced, tons of good sounds and informational as hell. TY.
Rhythm... is a dancer.
it's a soul's companion.
Fantasticly informative and well put together video. This will be my go to video for refreshing my knowledge when its "been a while" tanks
An essay on rhythm? love to see it!
Graciassss por este video, que buena manera de enseñar y ayudarnos a aprender de manera simple y nada aburrida! 🤝🏻
I learned in this video more than what I learned in the past year combined!
This is fantastically educational. Thank you for being such an amazing force for good in the world of music making. Stay awesome, friend.
I love your video so much , it makes me wanna start making beats again ! You have a beautiful vibe with how you teach ! Big up !
RIP MXR and Drumulator.
This was a great video. I should also go back to using quintuplets hats.
Im gonna keep watching this every day till i understand everything your saying… i have adhd but I love this shit
“It’s the shit you don’t hear”
You ain’t kidding tho it be like the 2nd or 3rd listen when you start picking up on that “shit you don’t hear” that makes you keep coming back. I fw that beat too that was nice
Such an excellent video! Very informative and logic for everyone who learn how to make a Music and Beats!
Thank you!
The video is great, but the thumbnail made it timeless.
Red means: always creating authentic bangers. Great vid Jeremy ✨
Loved the Broken Beat shout out!!!!
Saving this to watch over and over.
Thank you for the Video! This is exactly what i was looking for! So informative and entertaining! Lot's of information i can work with.
Exactly the type of guide I needed right now, super useful.
Very iformative👍I subscribed after watching this for for just 30 seconds.
This video is so good. I wish i had this when i started music.
