Dots are instrument onsets; size and opacity show strength. Swung notes and triplets keep their exact fractional positions.
02 / ALTERNATION
Snare side-step
Alternating kick and snare directions, with a light lift.
03 / ROTATION
Percussion orbit
Beat activity changes radius, depth and speed around the loop.
04 / PHRASE
Bass & phrase glide
A continuous phrase with bass, kick and snare excursions.
What you are seeing
These are abstract object trajectories, not motion-captured dancers. The faint line is the complete path. The moving dot is an exact integer-pip C++ sample. Depth uses an oblique projection; the three curves show X, Y and Z.
Envelopes anticipate each hit so their individual peaks meet its onset. Overlapping lanes can change the combined peak. The position grid is 1/64 of a quarter-note beat; audio events may fall between pips.
What you are hearing
A newly synthesised drum kit and simple pitched bass cues. No original Amen recording, commercial samples or downloaded music. The Amen is a quantised four-bar structural study, not the original drummer’s groove or timbre.
Each genre has many valid rhythms. These are documented examples and original variants—not a genre classifier. Tempo is adjustable; preset BPMs are audition suggestions.
Research references for this study
Primary production lessons inform the rhythm structures. No source audio, notation images, MIDI downloads or code is bundled. Full source scope and provenance are retained in the collection.
