What's your favorite time signature?

6/9, of course

somehow 6/8 or 3/4 often catches my attention

3/4 gang

>>127114293 (OP)
4/4 > 5/4 > 6/8 >>> the rest

four to the floor forever

22/8

whatever the fuck is going on in Led Zep - Black Dog

4/4
Also time signatures are arbitrary

>>127114293 (OP)
the one that goes *boom-tish*

Explain?

>>127114293 (OP)
6/8, the most soulful signature

>>127116617
Time signatures are just counting
You can count anything in any way you want
Something in 13/8 could be counted in 4/4 if you wanted

>>127116649
Counting is arbitrary though. Something counted "1 2 3 4 5" could also be counted "1 2 3 4 5 6 7" if you wanted

>>127116649
>>127116712
But isn't the point of counting in music to follow the beats, which are absolute?

>>127116946
Beats are also arbitrary. Any possible way to rhythmically divide the song could be "the beat"

>>127117149
I see what you're saying. You can identify various rhythmic patterns in the song.
