Here’s a little independence exercise that gets your limbs playing in different time signitures.
All of the grooves are really simple patterns of 16th and 8th notes so the differences in time signitures stand out a little more.
Your feet are in 3. In this video I’m playing:
R L L R L L
,but it could also be:
L R R L R R or
R R R L L L
or anything inbetween.
My left hand is in 5, playing the left hand part of a fiveadiddle:
L R L R R
L _ L _ _
And my right hand is playing a similar pattern in 7:
R L R L R L L
R _ R _ R _ _
Moving the hands over different instruments can create an emphasis on one time signiture over another. Sometimes it makes for some nifty sounding grooves.
The last couple clips I move the foot ostinato into eigtth note triplets, putting the right foot at a quarter note pulse. It grounds things so the 5 and 7 come through a little better (not to mention it’s easier to play!).
It gets a little muddy at times here but I thought I’d post it up anyway to mark my progress. Thanks for watching!
