Let's go watmm

Right I'm already here at the acroyearpolis, as you can see there's a cornfield too. Cicadas are all over the place tuned to the song of acid mwan idle.

@misuta Go

Woah Hyphaedelity is top track!

LOL

I got tickets for Athens! Now I need proper suggestions for a decent souvlaki

yeah and the drums on under BOAC were a pen on a radiator, the heck

Really? No ads here with Firefox' ublock origin extension. On an android phone, I've got DNS66 (which doesn't require rooting)

I love you too, you made my year. I'm not logged in but I'm listening

omg, did he say 'astounding' for our replica, and that he's humbled? I love you Sean and Rob It's the least I could have done, and I'm sure digit will agree

loooool "'hopautechre'?!" I mean yeah, if this is just a typo"

Agreed about the notation approach. The easiest way would be to write: 150bpm 180bpm 6/4 ||: /.../.../.../.../.../... | /.../.../.../.../.../... | /.../.../.../.../.../... :|| aka fix the time signature, modify the tempo (and not the other way around, which is what I did earlier). I guess there are times when it's more efficient the other way around

heck, pressed the wrong keys and submitted an empty reply. Here's my reply: If you had just the 6 16th notes over a space of 5 16ths then: the time signature would be 5/16, and the 6 equal note durations placed within it would form a tuplet; if you wanted to call it a sextuplet, I guess that should be fine, but I think a more appropriate thing to do would be to put a "6:5" ratio indication in the notation.

Let's go through this step by step. There are three bars in that piece, repeating several times. The first two bars are 6/4 - hands down. The third bar, whilst it could also be considered 6/4, actually concludes with an 8x 16th note snare rush that is slightly faster than the previously heard tempo; so the snare rush doesn't occupy the space of 8 16ths (aka 2/4) but something less than that. So the last bar can be thought of as: 4/4 + [some duration we haven't calculated yet, which is slightly less than 2/4]. So far we have: [ 6/4 ] [ 6/4 ] [ 4/4 + x ] Let's focus on the ending. As you very correctly pointed out, there are 6 sixteenths that fit within 5 sixteenths of the original tempo - a 6:5 ratio. This also means that, one sixteenth note in that snare rush occupies 5 / 6 = 0.8333333 of a sixteenth in the original tempo. (I know it's a bit weird calling them both 16ths. Think of it as follows: you have a clock/watch which for some reason ticks a bit faster than a normal clock. If we use the 0.83333 ratio of our example, we could say that each 'second' in your watch lasts 0.83 seconds of your normal watch.) Now the question is, how many 16ths does the snare rush occupy? The answer is: 8 (slightly sped up sixteenths in the snare rush) * 0.833333 = 6.6666666 sixteenths (in the original tempo of 150bpm) So the final time signature, assuming a constant tempo of 150bpm (if I remember correctly), is: [ 6/4 ] [ 6/4 ] [ 4/4 + SATAN/16 ] Hoping this helps

you're right, the snare rush is faster ? Right up until the snare rush it aligns perfectly fine at 150bpm Zooming in on the snare rush, we see it doesn't align 'properly' with the 16th note grid. Here's the snare rush time-stretched to better match the 16th note grid - it requires a 0.83x time stretch to achieve this:

yep, ideally it's straightforward 16th notes (no odd-numbered tuplets), but it sounds odd and somewhat accelerating because the loop cuts a bit short at the end. I don't think the snare rush itself was played gradually faster. We probably perceive it as accelerating due to the whooshing sound on top as well. I'm guessing what happened was, they composed several bars of the theme, but in the end they chose only those 3 bars, so they looped them over and over and bounced that as the final piece; but they chose a slightly shorter segment to loop, and that made it sound jumpy.

sorry yeah! I understood you were referring to the snare rush at the end, I wrote my reply in a hurry and thought I'd quickly mention the metre first. Now that I hear it more carefully, you're right, there's a few milliseconds missing from the end of the loop, the 'bell'-like pattern plays a bit faster the last couple of notes etc. If we disregard the slight timing thing, then the snare rush is just 16th notes and the loop is 3 bars of 6/4 like this: and the same thing with music notation: HTH!

woah, the meter is in 6/4. quarter note speed around 147-150. I'll do a piano roll transcription of the drums in a few hours when I get back.

R.I.P. Tragic news I had heard his Mutiny Of The Bounty (Closing Titles) loooong time ago in a TV series with film reviews, and the chords/pads were ultralush. Didn't know it was his at the time, so I had a mental note for quite some time to ID it.
