exorcyze31st October 2007This is very cool, and you did a great job with the drums as well! I always have a ton of trouble trying to do drums for odd time signatures and maintain a good groove for it.
Did you use addictive drums for this? Any chance you'd share the drum score ( or midi if you used addictive )? =)
mattacuk31st October 2007yes this will add to my skills for sure! Always great to play in odd timeings!
Good work Jerry !!

krudtaa1st November 2007great riffing. thanks.
Kristofer Dahl1st November 2007To those of you who aren't quite sure what time-signatures are all about. I suggest going through these two of Andrew's theory lessons real carefully:
time signature
odd time signatures
Basically it means that if a riff doesn't loop evenly (meaning you can count to 2, 4 or 8) - it's an odd time signature. This is quite unusual so it gives a different, unexpected vibe! ![]()
Juan M. Valero1st November 2007Oh MY GOD !!! I love this one !!!! I don't mention I'm a DREAM THEATER FAN !!!! hehehehee ... and tomorrow I'm going to a concert of them !!! ![]()

Odd time signatures are used in various musical styles. Many guitarists meet these signatures for the first time listening progressive rock songs or progressive metal songs.
