Rhythm challenge

[Lopyt]

Make an asymmetrical rhythm or melody in an unusual time signature. Try to make it very groovy and fun to listen to. It can be slow or fast. Maybe even do this with multiple time signatures and instruments. Next, use another instrument or hand if you are one of them piano only freaks and play a very simple part in 4/4. Play all the parts at the same time, and truncate the more complex ones so they fit within a multiple of 4 bars of the 4/4 pattern, like 4 or 8.

Here is a simple example played just on a drum kit. You don't have to use drumkit though if you don't want to.

10001000100010001000100010001000 -hi hat
00000000100000000000000010000000 -snare
10110101011010101011010101010110 - kick

I have in this one truncated the kick to 2bars but I expect you guys will probably do 4 or more bars before truncating.

The goal of this challenge is to create some very weird accents on a 4/4 rhythm for a very unpredictable and hsrd to follow feel.

Most OS users seem to write melodically as opposed to rhythmically, and very few seem to write purely rhythmic songs, which wil make this experiment very interesting, and I am excited to see what kind of results this will get when used in a melodic context.

This will probably be easier to do with rhythm heavy styles like dubstep and metal, but I think it may work real well with jazz and sound very interesting in big band or country, and other generally not rhythm focused genres.

Good luck!
