    This idea of showing sub beats by splicing those circles is part of an awesome, soon to come, plugin created by my two good friends Eyal Amir and Or Lubianiker from Modalics.
    More of that to come, so stay tuned.
    And here we are jamming to a piece by Eyal, with Omri Abramov on sax:

      The live studio version of this is amazing and you can see one of the drum sticks explodes in his hand during the "choir breakdown" section, does Baard miss the beat? Hell no, it is like he knows at that exact beat it will break so they give him a stick "in time"
