    This lesson includes six drum beats that are played in the 7/4 time signature. They are all considered odd-time, due to the fact that they aren't counted like popular 4/4 drum beats. The beats are still counted with quarter notes, but include seven in each measure instead of four. Watch the included video for adddition information.

    @ollietrix 13 років тому

    very well explained, and im glad there are videos out there for this sort of thing, the only thing that ruined it for me was that he was infact playing 7/8 unless he played a very slow groove over a metronome that was set to about 250 odd bpm which would mean it woud be hard to find a cheap click that went much above that speed. never the less, good teaching techni;que, i was always taught to count 4 then 3 or vise versa or use that to make subtle changes, something fun to try seriously.

  • @brucenlittlepictures
    @brucenlittlepictures 5 років тому +28

    This sounds like 7/8 to me.
    The songs I know in 7/4 that have more simple beats don’t sound like this. The metronome sounds like it’s on 8th notes.

    @TheManiacApproach I actually find 7/4 a lot easier to understand than 5/4, definitely more potential for groove there. Try the 1-2-3-4-1-2-3 count, it does make sense if you just keep at it.

    It makes the difference in the accented feel of the piece and the way you count it. For 7/8 would count like, 1,2,3,4,1,2,3 for a measure. (As I normally break it up like that like 4 and 3) Where as 7/4, lets says it's a slower song you might count like, 1 and 2 and 3 and 4 and 1 and 2 and 3 and, for a measure.

    • @fishedhat3377

      7/4 is 7 quarter notes. 7/8 is 3 and 1/2 of quarter notes.
      In 7/4 time you would count:
      1... 2... 3... 4... 5... 6... 7...
      In 7/8 time you would count:
      1... 2... 3... and
      or
      1 and 2 and 3 and a
      Hope that helps.

    Spoonman by Soundgarden is 7/4, at least in some parts, i think, but the beat is way more complex than this ones.
    Hurting and Shoving by GlassJaw is also 7/4, as well as Times Like These by Foo Fighters

  • @DaytonDrum3000
    @DaytonDrum3000 14 років тому

    @KaslarProductions wrong, if he had the metronome set to play an 8th note pulse it would "click" on 1 and 2 and 3 and.. and so forth. instead he has it set for a quarter note pulse, so it "clicks" on the downbeat, and seeing as there are 7 quarter notes in 7/4, it "clicks" 7 times per measure.
