> > the time signature 6/12 does not exist! Yes it does- the bottom number simply describes which notes define the beat. in 4/4, the quarter note is the beat, in 6/8 the eighth note gets the beat, and in 6/12 the eighth note triplet gets the beat. The top number is simply the number of beats to the bar. And Ian Simmonds' Last States Of Nature has more 6/8 and 3/4 jazz/trip hop tracks than you can shake a stick at. There's also a track called "March Of Osiris" by Elixir on Language that's drum-n-bass in 3/4. Tom
