Tutorial Update
I've tweaked the first tutorial we posted on our tutorial page - just cleaned up the formatting a little and made it more readable.
The tutorial is about learning how to feel polyrhythms (5's and 7's) for piano players specifically - but any musician might benefit from the excercises. Please let me know if you got some use out of it or have some suggestions or your own ways to get into polyrhythms; it would be good to hear them.
If anyone out there is interested I also have some corresponding playalong midi files which can make the whole feeling polyrhythms process a bit easier - let me know if you would like them and i will post.
Cheers
