I read recently that some track on Chichli Suite is in 12/8 or 3/4 depending on how you prefer to count. So maybe it's a 'leeedle' progress, who knows. I think there's a Pentatonik track on Anthology with some odd signature, and I'm sure Black Dog fiddles aroud with them, as do other artists.... I don't think that those of us who attack 4on the floor do so b/c of 4/4 time signature. Almost all of modern popular music since the begining "the rock era" has been based on 4/4 time. What I have a problem with is boom boom boom boom. (or boom chix boom chix boom chix boom chix- can't leave out that 909 hi hat;) -0 np: Luke Slater-Freek Funk (it's got some 4xFloor)
