SKEWED

This week's jam is in 7/8, which is huge for me since I've never written outside of 4/4 time.

I didn't have a lot of time to work on this during the week, so this was mostly a "Speed-Treasure Sunday" special.

I struggled with this one a bit, honestly, as it was pretty weird for me to wrap my head around the odd time signature, so I hope you enjoy it!

Let me know what you think down below! Always happy to hear constructive criticism, or just love.

I feel like this whole song is an exercise in tension. It's like there's a wild beast that's being constantly pulled back by a leash. So damn good!

Welcome to the wonderful world of odd time signatures! It can be a daunting at first, but you'll get used to it. And before you know it you're switching meters at the drop of a hat. And then come the polymeters and polyrhythms for yet another dimension of fun. Rhythm is all about feel, and once you're used to it, the sky is the limit!

Anyway, about the tune. It's sweet! I like what you did with it. Well done and keep on exploring odd meters!!

Hey! I am also experimenting with odd time signatures these days. I really like how this one came out! I agree with jesasys that there is a lot of tension and release in this track. Very nice! I also just really like the drum breaks.
