this is what I get for trying new things

another trance-ish friend this week.
I tried something new and think I paid the price for it. since trance and its disco related friends are all very phrase and bar length oriented, I decided to try making a couple of major aspects of this 3 bars instead of 4. that meant it needed to play 3 times to line up back with the 8 bar grid, and 6 times to actually come fully back around to match with normal phrasing.
it's neat and I get why people do it, but it held me captive. I think there's something real here, but I'll have to wait until I'm more confident with this idea before I come back to it. I think going _longer_ is probably easier for me to pull off than shorter--since you're going to have to sit with the repetitions longer before we get back to phrase town.
