A remix of an old tune I wrote in 2007...The composition is in 11/4...
I heard it, and I'm still trying to figure out 11/4 timing. My brain hurts. It sounded great, but Jazz bewilders me.
 
Another very good one, Frank. I fell in love with odd time signatures when I first heard the Paul Desmond penned Take Five (Dave Brubeck - Desmond was his sax player and wrote the tune. The first odd time signature song to chart, in jazz or pop).

11/4 is so far out it almost doubles back in on itself to a straight 4/4 (or 3/4, or 12/4 if you like. I'm getting SO confused! I haven't read charts in years).

And, duh...I just now caught the tune's "title": Up to 11 <<<< very crafty! :cool:
