RE: Block Mountain Submission Post | "Useko Mali" by: Ivan Atman aka Sensei Archers (Original Track)
This is wonderful! I like the beat of this music and the slight syncopation that punctuates it! Such a happy, upbeat number! Bravo, and thanks for sharing it with us at PYPT! 😊
Glad you liked it @thekittygirl 😉, it isn't syncopation, it is actually poly-rhythmic sections, something quite common in traditional African music, I'm grateful that you took time to listen to the tune, not many do here on Steemit, there is attention deficit disorder epidemic on Steemit, so just letting you know I appreciate it 😊
Ah... poly-rhythmic... I've never had any formal music training, so maybe I shouldn't even attempt to use terms such as "syncopation" — LOL! There is, indeed, quite a bit of an attention deficit problem, but I think it might be due, in part, to there being so much great content here that we want to see it all. I am currently following so many people that I can't possibly keep up with everything in my Feed on any given day. And, with so many Discord guilds, too, we easily get a bit overloaded.
By the way, I'm glad that you used Soundcloud in this post, because music streams from that site with much less difficulty than from Dsound (at least for those of us with slower Internet).
Don't worry @thekittygirl not many do know about the poly-rhythm expression 😉 if you are interested in some modern music that handles it, oh man, check the band Hiatus Koyote they be crazy good, I will quote the description they made for their music, "Multi-Dimensional, Polyrhythmic Gangster Shit" go check it out, especially if you like jazz
Oh, that music you linked to is really cool! Lovely sound, with a blending of LOTS of soul and mellow vibes with a jazzy beat. It's kinda like what an R&B artist might do if you told them to play some jazz... LOL! The music video was very entertaining, too, shot in that remote location with the abandoned buildings and vehicle! Awesome offering, and definitely a band to watch! THANK YOU for the link! 😊
Glad you liked it @thekittygirl yeah Hiatus Koyote are all over the place with genres, the more you check them out the more mind blown you get, any time Kittygirl 😉
