"Anybody who has doubts about my ability to groove can go back and check out my version of the Oakland Stroke or this bass drum heavy groove. Within 3 months (when I no longer have to sight read Spur to get through it) I could have this solo locked to the click if I wanted to. Although, I'm also practicing superimposing 7,5,11 beats over 4, and the original 1/4 becomes less obvious (even if you tap your foot)."
Okay- gonna play devil's advocate here...you said you would welcome feedback. Not trying to be "negative"- just contructive...I have absolutely nothing to gain from this- only trying to help...
All of the clips that you posted sound(to me) like they've been edited and/or looped. I'm sure others can hear that too. You're not gonna convince anyone you can groove if you post a 2 measure groove looped for 52 seconds(Oakland Stroke), for example. The other clips are questionable, too. Also, I would be less concerned with "superimposing" 11 over 4 (or 7 over 3)and try instead practicing fundamentals.
Sounds like you're not being honest with yourself. Why don't you give us the skinny on the editing?
Man this thread is getting some mileage. luckily for me, it's almost time to hop in myVolvo S40, get something to eat at Wendy's, go home and turn on my SonyTV and watch Fox News. Afterwhich, I'll probably go to sleep on my Sealy Posturepedic, and well, you get the idea.
This thread is silly.
But if somebody wanted to prove they could groove (a phrase that rhymes rather nicely), seems like they'd do it by playing some MUSIC. You know, with some MUSICIANS.
I know - that's just crazy talk. Sorry.

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Yep, simple 2 and 4, no edits. And a video clip from about 3 years ago, showing a technical foundation, before I started shedding. When clients require quantized, machine like loops, some minor editing will occur, but like the example of recording Gaucho, the foundation of the groove has to be there to begin with.But if somebody wanted to prove they could groove (a phrase that rhymes rather nicely), seems like they'd do it by playing some MUSIC.
