IMO producers who make songs for Britney Spears and other mainstream artists are not musicians, they are businessmen. Respecting a time signature is fucking dumb, this just shows that they are making profit, not art.(24 Jun 13, 06:00AM)Ronald_Reagan Wrote: I saw that, they didn't really add a five feel. You could count it as 4/4. It didn't really do much for me. But yeah, it sounded more like a test.
I think for some reasons, artists have more interest to respect the 4/4, first of all, they can sell/trade their samples for remixes (and in electronic musics, there are remixes at will) and this is the best way for unknow artists to be known. A 5/4 song have no chance to be in the Shambhala 2013 or it would be very strange.
