As an avid listener of music I think such techniques sound better when not overproduced (such as without the swing) and over incorporated (i.e repeated too many times and for too long that makes the song monotonous). These melodies must be timed perfectly in the song and should end up enhancing the overall feel of the song rather than taking over the majority of the track.

A forever question of mine:
how do you feel where the swing goes before- you can feel where the swing goes?

[isaiahadebayo]

This is great. You're an inspiration.

[branchyapple]

some reason it feels that this is being used in tracks like kygo!

Question from a novice, and please let me know if I’m way off or this is a dumb question, but are some of the sounds you use treated with reverb? I was following along with one of your videos earlier today and I couldn’t get mine to sound quite the way yours did until I added reverb. I really enjoy your content and followed!

Standard quarter note yes but it's on the off-beat or the "And" of the 8th note. It's not on the 1.

What app do you use and is it for laptop or mobile (if you don’t mind me asking) also is it free?

[StevenSeagul]

Hey bro is this a full song? I’d like to hear it

Anyone know of a MIDI device that would slice up sustained chord MIDI into short, choppy, MIDI with rhythm like that? Ableton user here. Thanks!

[GenericInternetter]

Listen to Tool, Meshuggah, and Car Bomb. That'll give you more than enough rythmic creativity to last you a lifetime.

[Nick_Reinhardt]

Imma be honest, it sounds like a jumbled rhythmic mess to me. Sounds like chaos

[dragonemperorr]

This works only because you added swing amount to "69"
Otherwise it won't
