@KOTARE33 - you're totally right. i should have said "4/floor" as that was what i was thinking & also what i meant. in trying to abbreviate "4 on the floor" i wrote the wrong thing. i do realize accents & signatures are not the same. sorry for the confusion & wasted comments - my bad.

@MosesHightower When you talk about four on the floor you are talking about accents, in this case where the kick accents in the measure. Cool - we learn something every day.

@MosesHightower Yep. Look, I am not trying to bum you out. I am trying save you some embarrassment in the future when you are talking with som0e music idol and you show your lack of rudimentary knowledge regarding time signatures. 4/4 just means measures of four bars containing four beats. It doesn't mean four on the floor in any way, even though four on the floor CAN be a part of 4/4 timing. So don't use 4/4 to mean four on the floor - else every literate musician will be confused.
-
@KOTARE33 - to reiterate what i already said below in a previous response, i was using 4/4 to describe "4 on the floor" - a term used to describe dance beats w/ a straight kick like house/techno/trance/etc. the timing of the track has nothing to do with whether it's pop or not. there are plenty of other music styles that use 4/4 timing. there has never been anything close to pop using these types of rhythms. they are IDM beats and much more akin to hip hop than pop.
-
@MosesHightower Every track on this clip is in 4/4 timing. It's the accents that are non-mainstream pop.

Stupid fucking haters clearly don't know who atom heart is. Uwe Schmidt is pure genius. No fucking doubting that.

@Tranenmeer yousaid it
-
@itsthataznkid34 - true, it's just that when people refer to 4/4 in dance music it means 4 on the floor, meaning just a straight kick, like house or techno.
-
@MosesHightower this is in 4/4 tho.. but i get what your saying lol

little boots do it BETTER
there is certainly rhythm in this song, but not the boring, usual rhythm as all pop songs etc. Listen to his albums.. he is a musical genius. I'm glad there are still some experimental artists.

yeah right, those rhythms are dope, highly complex and syncopated. if you're used to only hearing 4/4 beats or pop music, then you probably dont like rhythmic creativity and syncopation. this is the same concept behind jazz drumming but done with electronics.
