Poor Yogev! I rember Frederik saying in an interview that the Band does not play I live because they don't rember how to play it 😂 maybe he can teach Meshuggah how to play their own songs...
The whole point of his video is to figure out the recurring patterns. I would see no point in analyzing "I" which is for the most part not repeating. At this point you're better off with just a tablature
when I too was young and stupid, I thought meshuggah was brutal and the best head banging around. now being older and stupider as well, your videos are making me love meshuggah all over again. they're brilliant and so is everything on this channel.
Incredible as always. I can't believe you've developed an online meshuggah calculator. That is so awesome. Interesting that the final riff actually feels like it goes against Meshuggah's usual philosophy and the feel definitely becomes dominated by the "guest". There is an unnatural emphasis because of that '2' triplet subdivision that means the 4/4 feels totally occluded (must be sooooo hard to play...) and the 4 triplet phrase to bring it back around also just feels jagged... I suppose it could be viewed that the rhythmic mechanism is mutilating and distorting until it becomes something undeniably grotesque... however, the fact it still exists within the host's parameters do go to show an unwavering dedication to their method, even though on this occasion it would've been easier on the ear to miss out those final 4 triplets... perhaps it is conceptually leaning into the final throes of the machines torture method - that the victim is now twisted and beaten beyond all form and function by the exquisite machine, yet it is still living and existing in this world, just barely barely compatible with life...
@@YogevGabay But which Meshuggah song is in those dots you put at the end? xD P.S. Okay, if only my guitar wasn't broken, I would defo try to play this s*it with octaves on the long notes.
Q&A: What do you listen to except the music you're analysing here? Is there anything too hard you just don't dare making video about? Like maybe Car Bomb..? When will Meshuggah and Tigran collaborate on a song? As the calculator is a real thing, is the next step a random Meshuggah-style riff generator?
Awesome to see you cover this song! I was disheartened when the survey for a song came up and this was dead last, but I'm really glad it came up anyways -- it's always been a favorite. Thanks for the work you put into this channel!
Q&A request: Best way to internalize odd subdivisions in general and at higher tempos? i.e. quintuplets, septuplets, nontuplets. Thanks for all your hard work you maniac.
Hey man! This is one of my favorite Meshuggah jams. I listened to this song to death back in 2005 (when I bought every album of theirs I could find at the time). I also love triplets and gravitated towards this song. Despite playing along hundreds of times (drums) over the years, I just gave up on counting it out. So, thanks for your time, effort, and illustration. So much to still learn.
for the Q&A: what's your songwriting process like, and more specifically, when do you decide a rhythm is just too dense or more complex than it needs to be?
@@YogevGabay Well, true! And I'm so glad you made it free, it's going to be super useful in the future! It might not be such a good idea to make it paid then, haha-
Aaah if you happen to revisit some more meshuggah weeks, id love to see these deconstructions of "do not look down" and/or "pitch black"... By now, go and enjoy your loved ones as my brain bursts
Can't believe I missed this video! Until yesterday ;) The calculator is awesome! It will help a lot, currently trying to compose Hip Hop beats with 4/4 host and 13/8 guest :) Enjoy June, you deserved some rest after this epic Mayshuggah! For your Q&A: "What are the drummers that have impressed/inspired you the most recently?" "How do you see the mutual influence that Jazz and Prog Rock/Metal have toward each other? Is it more a feedback loop (e.g. Meshuggah heavily influenced by Jazz, that then influenced Jazz musicians like you and T. Hamasyan) or is it just a sign that musical boundaries are disappearing between genres? Or both? :P"
Q&A: I’d love to see a breakdown of Soul Burn especially when the drums just go crazy in the middle, I cant figure it out and it’s the only part of the song I need to learn how to play, cheers 🤘
Amazing job, as always. Please, please consider doing Spasm from the Nothing album! Easily one of their most underrated songs. Tomas Haake is a freaking genius.
Could you do an analysis of Somebody by Haken from the album The Mountain? Particularly the section where he repeats the phrase "I wish I could have been somebody". There's some complex rhythmic stuff going around there.
Been following you since the very start, and I just got to say that the content you provide is super useful and awesome!! You gave me so much inspiration in writing my own music, thank you so much! Please do song analysis to "by fire" by Haitus Kaiyate!
Hey master. You are so crazy as we can be, loving numbers at music. So heres is an incredible sound blowing my head for some months. LEPROUS - The Sky is Red. Specialy after the breaking part, the sound sounds impossible. Watch the drum playthrough from Baard Kolstad. That's an orgiastic mathematic sound. And keep going. You are fkng amazing!!!
Yeah the last part of the song, I really would like to understand what is happening there. I think there is a 4 over 11 polyrhythm, but then there are two more rhythms I haven't understood yet
I'd love to hear advice for entering Berklee drummers, as well as see more of your drumming! So for the QnA, what's the best way to prepare for Berklee (not the audition), and what should one expect when they first get to the school? Thanks :D
I'll drop this channel: th-cam.com/users/DavidColaDrums He has good insight into berklee. I myself didn't go but I'm sure it's a great thing to go through.
What is your favorite song title by Meshuggah? I'm not a fan so I don't know all but mine is "Straws Pulld At Random" idk but something about it feels so brutal to me... Great video as always!
Question from a guitarist. I have been dealing with a counting problem and I hope you can shed help me tackle it. Say you are counting "1-and-2-and-3-and-4-and..." and so on at a moderately fast tempo. The kick is on all the downbeats and the snare is on all the "and". (Example: The "infedeeeeeel" part of Now You've Got Something To Die For by Lamb Of God, or basically any Slayer song lol). When I play guitar to this particular type of beat, after a bar or two I start hearing the snare as the downbeat and I mess it up. How can I get over this? I've been told to practice it slowly but that doesn't seem to be helping me at all. I can't even imagine how people keep time over this beat. Am I rhythmically handicapped?
If you ever want to pick up the Top Riffs of Catch 33 or In Death, maybe get in contact with MetalMusicTheory. He's working through the entirety of Catch 33 right now.
Bless you, Yogev. I can't count how many times you've showed me something i can't count.
Ha, nicely done 👌
Ha ha I see what you did there
well played sir
"Can't count"
Ah, like Meshuggah!
Q&A: Your method for figuring out the songs and why Marrow proved to be too challenging (for now)?
I love the sound of the entire Chaosphere album.
For the Q&A:
Will you ever analyze "I" by Meshuggah?👀
Your work it's just too great for us mortals
Poor Yogev! I rember Frederik saying in an interview that the Band does not play I live because they don't rember how to play it 😂 maybe he can teach Meshuggah how to play their own songs...
@@maddo7192 I know hahaha
I also read that it was written randomly, they would just write something cool, record it and move on to the next part😂
The whole point of his video is to figure out the recurring patterns. I would see no point in analyzing "I" which is for the most part not repeating. At this point you're better off with just a tablature
@@gergonikk There are several patterns in "I", I think it would be awesome, idk
Pitch Black is underrated IMO.
Meshumatics with Professor Yogev!
when I too was young and stupid, I thought meshuggah was brutal and the best head banging around.
now being older and stupider as well, your videos are making me love meshuggah all over again.
they're brilliant and so is everything on this channel.
Thanks a lot man !
Getting older and stupider is a way of life.
XD
The mouth licking what you've bled....Truly The BEST song in this classic
You've gotta analyse "break those bones whose sinews gave it motion."
Wish Mayshuggah would never end!!! ❤

wow umm, I agree with everything you say hhahaha !
THANK YOU for doing something from Chaosphere!!! Hands down their best album!
It would be sweet to see you discuss this stuff with Mr. Haake himself
That would be amazing!

Thank you for Mayshuggah, enjoy your break in June👍🏻
Thanks !
Awesome! Thanks for the Chaosphere!
Very impressive., konokol is great, meshugga is kinokol’s master, all is mathematic
One of the few Meshuggah tracks that I could never quite get, this was very helpful
This is why Meshuggah is the best extreme metal band that has ever existed.
The calculator sure will come in handy! Thanks for the incredible work with Mayshuggah, you knocked it out of the park! Hope you have a nice vacation!
THankssss!
Q&A:

Is there anything too hard you just don't dare making video about? Like maybe Car Bomb..?
When will Meshuggah and Tigran collaborate on a song?
As the calculator is a real thing, is the next step a random Meshuggah-style riff generator?
Also, I love how you call the calculator, "time-consuming." It will be extremely time consuming haha
Dude. You’re awesome. That calculator is clutch.
wow amazing! loved mayshuggah, and now there's even an online calculator?! sick!
Glad you like it! AND YESSS it's freaking epic I'm still stocked
MY pleasure dude!
Q&A:
So once again:) , what was it like working with Tigran Hamasyan recording Drip?
Wow the online calculator is amazing.
Tom and Porat are so talented and beautiful.
Arthur my friend you are so talented and beautiful too!
Are you looking in the mirror again?
You should do a video on Sol Niger Within!
That's awesome dude. Not only do I love your counting lessons but I also love mathematics and that new calculator is🧨
Ohhhhhh I am gonna get so much use out of that calculator!
PLEASE DOOOOO
@YogevGabay I don't know if you are aware but the calculator is offline now 😢
Thank you for all the work!! Mayshuggah was a wild ride
Love your watch❤️
Awesome to see you cover this song! I was disheartened when the survey for a song came up and this was dead last, but I'm really glad it came up anyways -- it's always been a favorite. Thanks for the work you put into this channel!
