Guest Posted September 7, 2005 Share Posted September 7, 2005 I shall assume we've all heard DMT and snakey shaker and felt the time signatures go from 3/4 to 4/4 and had our socks knocked off. I was wondering, are there any other tracks that do this? When I first started listening to psytrance these were some of the first tracks I heard and I expected it to happen fairly commonly througout the genre but alas... Anyway, any suggestions?

Guest Posted September 7, 2005 Share Posted September 7, 2005 Good question! Apart from a few Shpongle tracks, I'm not aware of much psytrance using time signatures other than 4/4. Odd times are traditionally the province of prog rock, IDM, death metal and the Ozrics The only signature that really works is 3/4 or 6/8, the kind of walzty feel beat if you know what I mean, other more complex beats would kind of detract from the psy-flow..... That said, if it was done right, I don't see why you couldn't do a different signature if you made the beat well enough.... 5/4 psytrance anyone Kick-hat-kick-hat-kick-Kick-hat-kick-hat-kick etc..... Right, I'm off to write it. Should be interesting...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
