Hour 50 - 51
Messed around with 5 and 6 note groupings of 16th notes, mostly in pentatonics, mixed in with improv. Â I'm working on internalizing where the accents are placed. Â Check out what this sounds like just over a single bar. Â It's an exciting way to tie ideas together, or to kickstart a new concept. Â
I stretched this out to build a long run, by articulating the first note from each grouping, while playing a steady stream of 16ths until the rhythmic pattern repeated itself. Â It's cool to take notes away and only play fragments of this idea, or even just the accented notes on their own to build tension.
