Күн бұрынWhat are Euclidean Rhythms? In this video, we explore the intersection of math and music to generate traditional world rhythms.
Check out our article on Euclidean Rhythms for more details!

I am a physicist at CERN - I have re-calibrated the large hadron collider to make beats for my dubstep tracks...

Great explanation, Joe. After figuring out the rhythm, it's also fun to decide which beat of the measure the sequence will start, like changing the start position in a looping MIDI clip.

Fascinating. I knew about the end product- Ruismaker‘s Rozeta Rhythm app does a very nice job of eight-part Euclidean rhythms- but I must confess to not having been aware of the theory. That is no longer the case!

This makes a random music generator much simpler! It's interesting the fact that the rythms we prefer all have that strong mathematical affinity.

+acc.nr.2 Hi there, check out the original pdf doc about Euclidean Rhythms, it has an example of the set (7,12) and some references to what world styles use the generated rhythm... cgm.cs.mcgill.ca/~godfried/publications/banff.pdf
@charliebroadhead9851 5 жыл бұрын
Am I right in thinking that Euclidean Rhythms work best when using odd vs even and vice versa? e.g. E (5,8) or E (4,9) or E (5,16) or E (7,12) ? Just a common correlation that I spotted..

When you need some semi-complex math algorithm to explain how to make a simple four to the floor kick, basically. I have yet to find anything that sounds good, generated by Euclidean rhythm generators. Maybe there's something somewhere and I haven't found it yet in the sea of boring stuff.
@voltagecontrollab 3 жыл бұрын
I mean, it generates virtually every traditional rhythm in the world, so if you have a problem with the sound, it's probably not the Euclidean rhythms...

Yeah but how does this require euclidean algorithm?
@chesterVonWinchester 3 жыл бұрын
The video explains a method of repeated insertion of 0's and 1's starting around 1:26. This algorithm turns out to have the same structure as the Euclidean algorithm. I agree that the connection was not made clear in the video. But, check out Godfried Toussaint's original paper for more details. It's pretty short.

But this isn't about the gcd() function at all, should at least check the maths! Its related to both spectrum sequences of rational numbers and to Bressenham's line-drawing algorithm

So, a dude from North America "discovered" rhythms in 2005 that have been used for thousands of years by people of other cultures?
@voltagecontrollab 7 жыл бұрын
No, he discovered that the rhythms that have been used for thousands of years by people of other cultures resembled the algorithms used for number distribution used by nuclear physicists. You can read the paper he wrote.
