In this video, I walk you through a transcript of the rhythms I played for my video “Jeff Strong Calms Anxiety with Complex Drumming”. I describe my thought process for the composition and explain why the rhythms are not in 4/4 time.

Can I do this by just improvising? For instance, improvising a few bars of 6/4 then maybe two of 7/4 back to 6/4 for a while then 7 or 5/4. Just improvising the rhythms, but sticking to a 6/4 then 7/4 count sequence? Hope you understand what I mean.

Hey, Eddie. Yes, absolutely. Just keep it fairly musical and you’ll see calm.
