Hello Online Sequencer! It's time to announce the 2021 November Monthly Contest!

This month's theme is to create sequences using unusual time signatures! For this contest, an unusual time signature is defined as a time signature that is not 4/4 or 3/4 (or any that are interchangeable with these two). Using 4/4 and 3/4 in sections of your entries are allowed, but most of the sequence should be in some other time signature(s)! 

---

The entry period is from 11/1 ~ 11/21 (11:59 PM EST). Winners will be announced on 11/30/2021!

While we will post general notes on every contest, please refer to the Monthly Contest announcement thread for more details on Monthly Contests themselves.

• Entry limit of 2 sequences per person.
  

• Committee members are allowed to enter the contests, but will not enter their example sequence nor will they vote for their own entry.
  

• Sequences made prior to the current Monthly Contest are allowed, although entering the same sequence in different Monthly Contests is not. If you are unsure about whether or not you have entered a sequence in a previous monthly contest, a list of all the sequences that have been entered into previous monthly contests can be found here.
  

• Making a remix of an existing song is allowed.
  

• Editing an entry during the voting period (the 22nd through the end of the respective month EST) is strictly prohibited and will result in that entry being disqualified.
  

• Collaborations on entries are allowed, but any points that the piece might receive are divided up equally between the contributors.
  

• The standard Online Sequencer Rules will apply and any entries violating a rule will automatically be disqualified.
  

I look forward to seeing what you guys come up with. Good luck to you all!

First entry is an older one i finished a while back, never bothered to properly EQ it, and I can;t know with the chromebook, but I think I did pretty good. Time signature is 13/8. Second entry is more recent, I made it in like a day, more of a concept than anything else, but its the only other thing of mine in an odd time signature. Hope you enjoy!

Trying something a bit grungier. more of an experiment really. name to follow later.

Currently I fail to see how this is in an unusual time signature (audio wise it sounds as though it's in 3/4 to me). Please respond with what the time signature you intended for this is.

thingy i made a while ago

Uhh...

I don't know enough about music to give you an answer for that. 

 Bentoonie commented it sounds like 6/8, but the time signature menu only goes up to 5/4

6/8 is interchangeable with 3/4, so it is not an unusual time signature for the sake of this contest.

I wrote this ages ago, but it's in 5/4 and I haven't entered it in a competition before:
