  • @nimajnebenneb:

    I think it's definitely 7/4.

  • @RandomlyDrumming no doubt: 7/4 with 16th subdivision. If you try to clap to it in 7/8 it's not easy, because this is clearly felt: 4/4 plus 3/4 (not the other way around).

  • A brilliant drummer, watched him since 1987, a real genius.

  • This guy, to me, is the king of odd time drumming....

  • If you keep a 7/4 melody in your head, then just stick with it.

  • never go 7/8 keep it 7/4 beast.

  • These songs sound like they're from a video game or something, they're catchy :D

  • @Audi0Phil They're called Octobans and he uses them quite extensively.

  • SImon Phillips plays odd meter as fluently as he does even meter. He's a monster. And such a nice guy. No ego here, I can assure you.

  • strange, for me its easier to count 8 and 6...

  • 8/8

    

  • 4/4+3/4

    he puts the rhythm in the four and uses the octobons on the fills within the 7/4
