5 & 9 Go to 4's House

about

When you take four bars of 4/4 and divide each bar into 16th notes, that’s a total of 64 beats. Somehow it occurred to me that you can divide into 6 bars of 9/8 (54 beats), plus two bars of 5/8 (10 beats), and that’s how the tune got started. It’s really quite a silly title, and it made me chuckle for a while after naming it that. A lot of the tracks on this album have very simple harmony, because all my mental bandwidth was consumed by the rhythmic aspects, and this is tune is one of them.
