Yeah, that's the basic idea as far as I'm aware, in general polymeter happens across a larger time frame but there are a lot of things on the border that could be notated or felt either way

Here it is.
Sounds excellent through phone / smaller sets of speakers so don’t feel like this should be listened to on hi-fi gear (which is, admittedly, a rauðvik limitation).
Enjoy the polymeter/polyrhythms

Guitar player here: let’s not start dissing odd-time signatures and polymeter/polyrhythm. clapping on 1 & 5 can be super cool, particularly over a 4/4 groove.
you wanna diss someone’s time, just say “where’s the fucking 1?!”

I just implemented polymeter and polyrhythm.
Play the sequencers in two fashion: one will play the steps in the time of the resolution, on, the beat, one will fit the steps in the resolution loop, making more complex beats.

There's odd time signatures, polyrhythms, polymeter, key changes down, key changes more than one key up, microtonal notes, barely used modes and so so so much more. Instruments that go hardly unused and jazz chords hardly seen outside of jazz.

Well now. Here’s my fourth album. If you enjoy King Crimson, Michael Tippett, polyrhythm, polymeter, bitonality, atonality, whatever-else-it-is tonality, tapping your feet furiously, and/or jazz, you might find summat to tolerate here. Enjoy, listener (hi Ian!) 🫡

Meta’s algorithms are opaque and sketchy, but they also introduce me to shit that is extremely up my alley, e.g. a musician playing polymeter with kashakas

Oh yes...occasional polymeter, but sometimes the 2nd part has a few notes different.

If you want to be pedantic, you can notate the same rhythm as a polymeter or a polyrhythm. In the absence of notation, it can be either

I like this. I'm hearing a 8 against 7 polymeter. Polymeters are fun. It can get even more interesting if you syncopate some of the parts.

One of my favorite band experiences was the drummer, exasperatedly trying to explain a polymeter for 20 minutes straight. could *not* get us to understand and couldn't let it go. eventually, one of the guitarists goes, "wait, so... dunn dunn dundununudun" and we all played it perfectly.

Might be my fault? I did a video about meter a couple months ago that briefly discusses the difference between polymeter and polyrhythm. I didn't mean to give the impression that one could judge that difference absent broader context, but who knows.

No! You are right, I was tired and should have stated polymeter instead. I stand corrected!

Thanks! I tried to balance keeping to and stretching traditional form. Gamelan is not normally in 5/4 or 7/8, let alone the two combined in a polymeter! It took a lot of rehearsal for the group to get it, only for it to be canceled when the pandemic first hit.

In class the other day we were talking polymeter and polyrhythm and I used Bach's minuet from his Partita No. 5 and "Afro Blue" by Mongo Santamaría as examples. Then I wondered how it would sound to combine them. The answer: super cool! ethanhein.bandcamp.com/track/partit...
