It gives the music a distinctive swinging shuffle sound which propels the rhythm of the music forward. And, an extra special thanks goes to Douglas Lind, Vidad Flowers, Ivan Pang, Waylon Fairbanks, Jon Dye, Austin Russell, Christopher Ryan, Toot & Paul Peijzel, the channel’s Patreon saints! 😇 SUPPORT ME ON PATREON: 🎹 0:00 What is 12/8 time? 1:11 12/8 vs. 4/4 3:31 The “Purdie” Shuffle 4:33 12/8 shuffle 5:21 12/8 vs. 6/8 6:31 Sponsor 7:29 Polyrhythms 8:27 What if 12/8 was grouped like an odd meter?
