Great Article. I teach music for a living and it's amazing how many students these days try to avoid learning theory. Hopefully, articles like this will provide some inspiration for those on the fence. Theory doesn't have to be boring, or directly connected to classical training. I find that once the student has some goals in place for learning songs, or techniques, I can throw some theory their way... even if they don't know it, they become more creative and use their imagination in a more productive way musically. I look forward to seeing more of these rhythmic theory 101 articles. I'm a fan of your work here and started following you when I started working in sound design with Machfive 3. Thanks again!
