Foreign's yoga track is not in 13 8 beats but in 13 4 beats.

The Becoming by Nine Inch Nails is at 13 for time. Here the time signature feels like a group of seven beats followed by six beats, that's 13 8's. and 13 4's are examples of odd time signatures.

Other examples of odd bars include five eight five four seven eight and seven four eleven eight and eleven four Etc. Now you might be thinking what is the difference between 13 8 and 13 4. Well, on the surface, the only difference is that 13 8 has 13 eighth notes in each measure and 13 4 has 13 quarter notes in each measure the bottom number of a measure tells us what type of rhythm there will be in each measure eight refers to eighth notes and four refers to quarter notes So, in theory, the distinction between 13 8 and 13 4 is clear, but in practice it's not so black and white because for us, any song in 13 for time could technically be transcribed in 1308 if we only use half the tempo, the real difference between 13 8 and 13 4 is that, while a song on 13 4 will feel like it has 13 clear beats in the measure, with a song on 13 8, it will actually feel like it has six and a half beats in the measure, that is, half of 13.

Going back to that 13 8 song by Mario. RPG when we listen to this music, the note we naturally feel is not the eighth note, it is the quarter note, but because there are only six and a half quarter notes in a measure or 13 8s, the music feels like it has seven beats in the measure with the last beat cut in half compare it to a song in 13 4 beats like BX yoga and the beat we're holding on to here is the 13 quarter notes so the odd bars that have an 8 at the bottom will feel less stable . It will feel chaotic because the last part of the measure, as far as our internal sense of rhythm is concerned, is being cut in half.
Odd bars with a 4 at the bottom will feel more grounded and, for lack of a better word, more normal because, although we still have an irregular number of beats in each bar, say 13, we feel all of those beats in full. , we don't get the feeling that one of the beats is cut in half if you're interested in music theory, which I'm pretty sure you are, then you'll be interested in Hook Theory Hook Theory offers several brilliant resources for learning music theory , for example, their website offers music theory analysis of over 20,000 different

songs

. They also offer two interactive music theory textbooks where much like my own videos, they use pop and rock songs to exemplify and explain music theory.
Concepts above this hook. Theory's Hook Pad is an excellent tool that helps you apply music theory concepts to your own composition as you compose. The Hookpad will make suggestions for possible chords. or note options based on the mode or key you're in, follow the link in the description to start using hook theory today, so it's 13 8 verses 13 4. but we can also have 13 16. a type of time signature where we have 13 16 The notes in each measure of music, time signatures with a 16 at the bottom are usually used among other time signatures, often only for a single measure like here in first or fifth of Genesis , all very foreign, but it is an example of a song that is actually in a meter of 1316 for an extended period of time is the theme song for Terminator Brad Fidel created the music for Terminator using various synthesizers and samplers the main basis of the theme is a loop of what should be six eighth notes, but when Fidel recorded In This Loop on his Profit 10 synthesizer, he was a little late in pressing the loop button, so the loop was not a perfect Six Beats as expected, but in reality there were six eighth notes plus an extra involuntary sixteenth note for a total of 13 sixteenth notes. notes in each measure of the music 13 16 times because Fidel recorded this music by himself and never had to commit the music to notation like a traditional film score, he really didn't have any problem with this inaccurate loop and kept it and I think that he made the right decision, gives the theme song a strange sort of scary sound, perfect for a movie about being chased by a killer robot.
Pliny's Electric Dawn is at 13 8 and we can hear that six and a half beat feel. where the phrase still sounds like it's been shortened foreign On Again by Genesis is in time 13-4 now if you watched my previous video about songs that mix different time signatures, you'll remember that in that video I didn't describe this. The song is in 13 4 but in alternating measures of six four and seven four and this is one of the reasons why measures with a big number on top like 13 are less common because it is often more practical to write down and conceptualize these songs in smaller bars and smaller divisions, so even if we can describe this song using a meter 13 4, a performer might prefer that we transcribe it as well as alternating bars of six four and seven four, the same goes for golden brown.
Stranglers may think this song is in 13-4 time, however, noting it in thirteen four times obscures what the rhythm should feel like. The rhythm feels like this: three bars of three fours and then a bar of four fours in both. transcriptions are 13 beats in each phrase, but subdividing those 13 bits in this way into measures of three fours and four fours gives the performer more information about how those beats should be grouped and accented.
