I appreciate you doing this. I also love writing things in odd time signatures and I think you did well with the jazz band having a smooth feel even though it was odd timed. I also enjoy the disjointed choppy feeling you can get by shaking the time sigs all around as evidenced in the piano piece. I think they are great tools to build and release tension and are much under used and not often given much thought other than say a 3/4 or 6/8. Do you have a favorite time sig for such things? I really do enjoy 13/8 and 7/8 for my own strange songs and always seem to gravitate to one of those.
I really like 7/8 and 5/4. But in some things like my Constant Piano Sonata Mvmt 1 I really mix it up with 4/4. 5/4. 7/8, and more. I think mixed meter is my favorite actually.
