Yes you are. It's his right to be wrong and proclaim his ignorance as loud as he likes. Challenging him is not just mean spirited, it's probably unconstitional.

Coming next from toxi - Serialism: It's all just counterpoint really. 'Cos I want it to be.

one thing does confuse me...why do some people have two standards of behavior...one online and one for real life? (taking "real" with a grain of salt)...I prefer to be consistant and up front, not be someone else when I'm anonymous or no one is looking

And you better keep it like that, Hink.
I'm just the same.

WOW...

what a cool groove this piece has.

(I have to admit I tried counting to it and ended up with 6 beats)

Where can I listen-to/buy more music like this. Does anyone know who the singer is. Awesome singing style.

Triplets are like centimeters. They're fixed and undebatable things.
Swing is like "yea long" and you either get it or you don't.

I've seen drummers who couldn't swing if they hung.

Now see, that's just plain mean-spirited.

I don't care that you have no ear for music, there's no reason to start the condescension.

"OK, guys, let's play this song I just wrote. It's real easy. The sonic entities are kind of formant heavy slightly resonant rectified square wave thingies, most of the frequencies are bunched around 2500 Hz. Ready? INTERACT!"

Hey - I wrote that!

I look away for what seems like a moment, and suddenly theres another 10 pages! thank goodness for printview

If you take a hi-hat pattern of semiquavers (16ths if you will) that goes |x-xx|x-xx|x-xx|x-xx| even though it is arguably straight, it is eminently possible to 'swing' it by introducing ambiguities in placement of the kick and ghost notes on the snare. I do it all the time.. It's perfectly straight/non-tripleted both on paper and in the air, but with a little bit of imagination when playing it swings all over the place... just thought I'd through that in

I remember back in the day when meter used to 1.0936 yards...

Hold on, I have an experiment in an attempt to settle this.

Though the score labels it, I'm sure, as 4/4 with swing, this song is based on triplet 8th notes. You can hear distinct and readily identifiable triplets in virtually EVERY solo, and even in the main riff later on in the song.

The song, BTW, is Benny Goodman's Orchestra (you know, the "king of swing").

Tell me that isn't triplet 8th notes (compound time). There's NO WAY you don't hear it.

Help on understanding time signatures.
