I'm a percussionist and I own two Flexitones. They are painted black so they are almost invisible when played in a dark venue. This often means that people can't see what is producing the sound.
All the drum information I’ve been craving for well over 6 months in one masterpiece video. Like literally everything. Thank you so much for making this 🙏🏽
This is the best explaination of Rythym i've ever seen. As a person who has Disabilities this was the most clear cut, well spoken, non difficult to Interpret video i've ever watched. Thank you.
Okay, i admit i clicked NOW because of the thumbnail. Thank you! This was very informative - again! You are such a fantastic teacher, and as soon as they are old enough to understand english, all your content (the informative ones, the musical ones they know already) will be on the program. Hope to see you!
I played a song in symphonic band that was a mixed meter between 3/4 and 6/8. It was like DA da DA da DA da | DA da da DA da da | DA da DA da DA da | DA da da DA da da
The video is perfect for playing in the background while scrolling through comments seeing the people trying to claim that, somehow, 'acab' promotes hatred and violence more than, y'know, the 'c' in acab are infamous for. Truly amazing! Also some parts of this video feel like a modern version of This Is The Hook, and I love it.
Great video, a lot of these things I know by feeling or intuition so it was so cool to see them with neat motion graphics, I can't imagine all the work you put in it to handle all the timings.
Great video! I've been (attempting to) make various groove based music since the '80s and your explanation around 4:28 of the subtle swung 16th is the eye-opener I needed! And props to the thumbnail.
Congrats on the well made educational video. It's a high quality one. A lot of practical examples makes it very useful for beginners. At lest that's how IMO good teachers teach. 20+ years ago I was learning such things by myself, while composing music in trackers. Cheers. :)
Great video! So many great insights. Anyone told you before that you are a great writer? I feel like your actual script it really strong. Intro and the delivery hooked me immediately.
Absolutely top-tier content. Sincere thanks for putting this together, man. And as an addendum - your motion graphics/graphic design skills really elevate the video. So elegant and clear. I used to have a job making classroom science films so I really appreciate this shit.
I think this is one of the most complete (for beginners) and concise video on the subject ! Great job ! I knew about the polys but your video helped me spot the differences between polyrythms and polymeters more clearly ! thank you :)
I do know most of this, or did, but it's so good sometimes to have things reiterated to firm up ideas we already have stored away somewhere. Going entirely by instinct, I tend to do the same things over and over and fail to access parts of my prior knowledge. Thanks for this.
Pausing midway to say - this is another truly phenomenal resource you’ve given us all! Thank you so much, this is incredible stuff. Your ability to turn dry concepts into understandable & interesting examples is awesome.
Best video on rhythms I've seen. Hanging with it for a while now, studying it and recreating its concepts. Thank you so much for putting it out - fantastic overview!
Great video. Very informative and easy to digest/note take. I've been producing various genres of Electronic Music for over 12 years and still find myself coming back to the fundamentals of rhythm, and song structure.
Love how this video can translate to other forms/genres of music! Would love to see a video like this that explores rhythms of hardcore genres like grindcore and powerviolence
I just wanted to say "thank you!" I think this video helped me to understand the basics of drums better than any class I've taken to date... And I latched on to the "A-B-A-C-A-B-A-D" way of doing drums.
One of the best tutorials on rhythm I've ever seen! I've been playing music for years, but have often struggled with rhythm; I think the understanding I have now of some of these concepts is going to be huge for me going forward!
Dude .... i am mainly a guitar player ... however you said in this video everything I did .... "instinctively" did when it came to creation of Rhythms .... especially for Electronic Music .... But you Put it "In theory" that I can now apply to "logically" to my music ..... as opposed to .... well "instinctively" ... Thanks for sharing all the Information among us fellow Musicians . .... Great Soundpacks ... BTW 🤩🤟
Happy to be a patron! Videos like this one keep me excited about my own musical journey. I've done this before in a tweet back when I was on twitter ages ago and here I go manifesting again. I think you're a great teacher Jeremy, and I think you should look into working with Complexly (the Crash Course people) on something. Keep on keeping on man.
That was excellent, learned a lot, it's like I've done it all but also done none of it, filled in a lot of holes in my knowledge and led me to what I should be learning and focusing on next.
I was born in 1990, since 2003 since I downloaded Fruit Loops (Not FL) ;) I make music as a hobby. I learned by myself by trial and error, advice from a few forums on how to use the program in a language I didn't understand (English is not my native language. Many years later YT tutorials appeared.. obviously I developed but I always regretted not going to music school. After your film I feel like I just graduated, that was something, that riddim that I was missing
I would think after 20 years of djing id have committed this to memory, and some ways I have but still find myself coming back to the subject for an alternative or fresh take. Nice video :) especialyl now im trying to make my own music
Thank You Jeremy. Arranging drums is something I’ve always been lazy to do on my tracks. The ABAC - ABAD sounds like a simple and effective way to create enough variations on a track, I’ll always remember that now :)
This was really good. Informative, but just generally delightful to listen to - you're continuously a wonderful creator and presenter. (Anxiously awaits the sequel video, rhythm with Max Blasterson)
"That Goo Goo Doll song" does switch from 3/4 to 4/4 in the instrumental section (and then back to 3/4 again), so it might be a confusing example if people go to that song as a 3/4 example.

You got me here just because of the thumbnail and now I’m accidentally learning about the fundamentals of rhythm wtf
This is how musicians are born
ahahaha
We all got lured by our mutual hatred of cops
Me too
The fact that you made the script fit within the rhythm is a subtle beauty

This is great.
You’re great.
These two and an MPC

Can’t believe I missed that one. We all love you. Probably because you’re so smart and good looking. Or the rest. Something along these lines 😅.

Jeremy Academy, I love it! Hi from Redmond!
Hey cheers thank you!
This is the best explaination of Rythym i've ever seen.
As a person who has Disabilities this was the most clear cut, well spoken, non difficult to Interpret video i've ever watched. Thank you.
Great video and really helpful as I get (back) into making music and having fun with sound.
I was munching a snack when I hit play and now I'm chewing pretzels in time with the demonstrations.
doing the same with my choco pops
Wait till you fart, you will hit a B flat.
Hell yes
Thanks for this! I learned a lot, including what a flexatone is. 10 out of 10!🎉

omg, engineer from tf2 haiii
One of my favorite things in music is that 3/4 and 6/8 are completely different time signatures even though they are exactly the same thing.
The difference is that 3/4 goes 1+2+3+ whereas 6/8 goes 1++2++! Same number of 8ths but different strong/weak beats
The difference is "feel"
I played a song in symphonic band that was a mixed meter between 3/4 and 6/8.
It was like
DA da DA da DA da | DA da da DA da da | DA da DA da DA da | DA da da DA da da
Same with 4/4 and 8/8. ||+|| vs |||+|||+||
math
The ACAB structure is damn solid music theory
Love the beat structure examples toward end, helped gel things in my mind.
I was just thinking of this because intro to theory classes only barely scrape the subject. big love.
Todays public service brought to you by Jeremy Blake. Thank you sir, I feel so much more informed.
I subscribed to your channel just because of the thumbnail. Thank you.
20:00 inspiring stock footage choice
What a lovely set of notes in the thumbnail

And great thumbnail, it made me laugh which is why I actually ended up watching your vid. Great attention-getter!

Jeremy, finally someone that explains time signatures in a way I understand. Thank you! Been looking for this FOREVER.
THUMBNAIL!!! Also, I am LOVING these new vids you have been producing. Thanks !!
ABACAB was a good album by Genesis! This was a great tutorial by you!

this is a very wonderful and powerful chord progression.
This is truly superb. Thanks. I'll watch this many times
This was so fun to watch! Thanks Jeremy
I already saw the thumbnail a few times but I just now realized the thumbnail lmaooo amazing
i don't even care about the video tbh i just came to say how amazing your thumbnail is

this is the best explanation of the fundamentals on the internet

All common arithmetic basically, additionally certified amplified beats are clutch around Berlin ❤️🔥
😂🤣😂
The 'Bass=Life' part at the end was a very good tidbit
I genuinely wish I'd had this video when I was a musical novice, it'll be a great resource!
Genius Thumbnail
Clicked on vid to see the comments, got distracted, couldn't be bothered to try to forget about it and watch the video.
Honestly one of you're best educational videos, so well organized and explained. Keep it up!
I’ve been at this for a while and this is the clearest and simplest explanation I’ve ever seen.

I don't know why this was recommended and I didn't understand anything, but it seemed like a good video. 👍
The video I was waiting for! Perfection.
This is the exact tutorial I’ve been looking for. Thank you so much. 🙌🏼
You make learning fun, what an awesome talent!
That was excellent, learned a lot, it's like I've done it all but also done none of it, filled in a lot of holes in my knowledge and led me to what I should be learning and focusing on next.
Didn’t know I needed this. I’ve unlocked a new world of exploration! Thank you
Peak thumbnail design
Rhythm... is a dancer.
it's a soul's companion.
ive always felt weakest at drums. this is exactly what i needed explained
Fantasticly informative and well put together video. This will be my go to video for refreshing my knowledge when its "been a while" tanks
Thank you. This helped me to know how to organize my patterns on Maschine.
I learned in this video more than what I learned in the past year combined!
The best and most comprehensive explanation of rhythm I've seen. Nice one thanks!
Great message in this video, love the thumbnail

“Tah tah tee tee tah!” 😎👌
Excellent. Really handy resource for newbies. Well done.
some very interesting and simply explained stuff here :) !! thanks a lot
Thank you for the Video! This is exactly what i was looking for! So informative and entertaining! Lot's of information i can work with.
