@RionaSallyHartman I think they're actually just putting the same amount of space between every clap, but because of the odd meter it alternates between up and down beats.
@garbaor Probably one of the most musical odd meter songs I have ever heard. This 11/8 is so musical that it doesn't sound odd!! Respect to all the musicians and vocalist involved with this project. Awesome album!
Actually.. to be accurate... it's 11/4 =] if you've noticed there's a natural beat going in the song and it's a cycle of 11 beats... if the cycle ended between two beats it would've been called 11/8
@ben4792 You didn't piss me off, I just disagree with what you're calling an eleven beat cycle...I am hearing an eighth note cycle that works out at 2+2+2+2+3 underneath of the groove. If you're listening to the bigger beat in the way I am, the quarter note is approx =110, so to my ear the "11 beat cycle" is undeniably ending between two bigger beats-take note that the melodic phrases are each starting off in eighth notes, not quarters.
chords 2nd and 3rd chords are aug? or m7?

Really enjoying listening to this tune. Love when the clapping moves to the offbeats towards the end.
