HEY FOLKS here's a new video for you all! This riff really is one of my favorite in history, and despite it's "simplicity", I think there's a lot going on to learn from .

Tomorrow night I'll be doing a live composing stream to write with the double tresillo. It will serve as a follow up to this Metallica video but we'll make sure it's not just metal music :)

Expect the stream to start around 8PM CT, but I'll post a link here on Patreon 1 hour before I go live. Hope you enjoy this one!

Analyzing The Genius Riffs From Metallica's "ORION"

Wanna write and produce your own music? Get my Theory and Songwriting Course! https://shorturl.at/evKMX My Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/signalsmusicstudio Cliff Burton's contributions to the band Metallica are the thing of legend. In this video, I explore my favorite riff from the instrumental ORION, where his influence can be found all over the track. There is another moment in the song later on that is much more "classical" that also warrants an investigation, and if the interest is great enough, I'll happily analyze that part too! The reason I love this riff is that it sounds epic, amazing, and slightly confusing. Yet if you understand rhythm at a basic level, it all clicks into place quite well. It also demonstrates the classic composing tools of Metallica - minor keys that feature leading tones and "ugly notes" like b2 or b5.

I was just digging into the bass lines from Call of Ktulu last night, so this is very fortuitous! And to answer the question from the end of the video, YES PLEASE!

Hey Jake , I know it's not a Q/A live but if there's time at the end , could you please explain the difference between shuffle and swing and how to play them ?

After much confusion on this topic, I've come to the conclusion that there is no well-defined difference between "swing" and "shuffle". Some folks claim a "shuffle beat" is a specific swung gallop, but the two words are so frequently interchanged that it makes it a difficult question to answer!

Okay thanks for the reply , because I've seen that there's no straight answer and everybody has kinda has their own definition.
