Is there any electronic music that uses non-standard time signatures?
Not necessarily on every song but I'm surprised that I haven't come across much electronic music that strays away from 4/4 time.

lad...
i'm surprised your knowledge in electronic is so superficial. i thought you guys are better that this

He does use a lot of polyrhytms but usually over a 4/4 base. I can't think of any tracks of his that are straight up in like 7/8 or 5/4 or something.

Never got round to checking out VS, found this which is in 7 when the beat comes in about half way through which is pretty sick

That's why I'm asking
You got any tracks to recommend?
>>69619004
go listen to Untilted by Autechre
>>69619188
This is good too
A lot of what's been recommended is IDM which is I like but it all sounds really cold and machine like. Anyone got any electronic weird time signatures with a warmer sound, i.e. focus on harmony as well as rhythm?
The last third of this FlyLo track springs to mind

>which is I like
*which I like
>>69619188
I just realized it's "Untilted" not "Untitled"
>>69619181
most of VS tracks are in 7/4 but he fucks with all kinds of weird sigs
i heard one that was in fucking 15/16 or something
>>69619369
That's pretty mad
I know a jazz track which does something like that, it's in 7/8 when the piano comes in but then they add an odd number of 16th notes at the end of one of the bars and it throws me off every time.

this is by design, though. the majority of electronic music is EDM of some kind, empasis on "Dance." as such, it needs to mix with the tracks that precede and follow it. even if you match the BPMs perfectly--the drums line up--if the time signature is different, the mix will sound off because the measures don't line up.
but also just most rock, pop, blues, folk songs are in common time. people just like common time, mostly.
>mfw trying to mix in a Tortoise song with an uncommon time sig for 20 min at the crib before I figured out that I'm dumb. at least I didn't try it live.
>what is 2-step
