The 1985 - 2005 Australian Broadcasting Corporation News theme REMIX?

This is awesome, and makes me think of my childhood.

Quote from: ducati_jackson
During Push it way up!, at about 2 minutes in where you start the vamp that leads to the guitar imitating the plane engine (so cool btw, my dad described it as "eerie"), what is the time signature? It feels really natural, but the closest I can count out is 15/8, and it still seems like I'm off by half an eighth note until the song goes into 7/4 at the end. o_0 This has been driving me nuts for some time.
Quote from: Ben Sharp
Haha I actually describe it as eerie in one of these answers also. You can think of that vamp in two ways. The first way is that it's one bar of 14/4, where the last half is on the upbeat. Or you can count it as two different, alternating parts within the same part, the first being 13/8 and the second being 15/8. I had to open up the track in Logic and think about it for a while.

Mental skill kinda depends on person, composing is mostly trial and error if u dont know good tricks, actually making drum track. Manual skill can be taught, but there is limit, like after legendary 5+ its slow to go another level.
And you can also compose with guitars, i love death metal becouse bands not only play their awesomely fast awesome song but also compose it, be it by one band member or whole band.

What I was saying regarding guitars is that a lot of it is straight-up muscle memory~
You subconsciously remember the scales and tend to stick with them as you make up stuff~

But you have to think outside of scales to make something more original, or use rare scales.

Heh, yeah~
Feels a lot more like his older BM Sharp stuff, but also a lot like Smashing Pumpkins, especially the titular song~
Both of which are good things~

But you have to think outside of scales to make something more original, or use rare scales.

Not necessarily~
Ben Sharp (see: Cloudkicker) just kinda fucks around on his guitar, building up from an intro riff, and he uses all sorts of crazy-ass scales and things~
All scales are the same, really, just muscle memory~
On a guitar, at least~
With piano, you've got the black keys and shit, but guitars don't have anything like that~
To be honest, I think that's why the guitar is such a prolific instrument~
There aren't any fancy tricks or nonsense when it comes to playing it, only muscle memory and dexterity~

"Black keys" are sharps and flats, which are passages between notes. They also exist on guitar, y'know.
There are fancy tricks, like bends, different styles of picking, vibrato, fingerslides, dive bombing, palm muting, using different pickups, while on keyboard/piano u just press keys, with no fancy tricks and nonsense, but i dont say it isnt hard at times, piano needs more theory than guitar though. But guitar is harder.

He was having a go at electro before. :(

In other news, I finally found a rap group I like.

Die Antwoord - I Fink U Freeky
Die Antwoord - Fok Julle Naaiers
Die Antwoord - Evil Boy

Darn they're different. Also, they're definitely NSFW. Evil Boy has a LOT of phallic imagery.

Apparently, you haven't heard of something called a Glissando. Do your research first, before attempting to diss the piano.
