Mess in the afternoon

This is a kind of written improvisation. Made it just for the fun of making it. You might find it funny too or whatever you think you can throw at me in the commentsection. 😄

I think your name is quite appropriate given how rhythmically messy this piece is!  LoL  I don't even know how you managed to write it from beginning to end in 4/4 and still have it line up kind of.  In the beginning, just from listening it sounds more like it's in 6/8 rather than 4/4 and there are parts of it that are in 5/8 (m. 14 and when that recurs but it happens twice so it lines up that way).  It's a fun and ambiguous piece though with lots of cross-relations.  It does sound improvisatory.  Fun piece though!  Thanks for sharing.

Thank you for your compliments. Happy you could feel the joy I meant it to be. I could look if/when other meters are needed. Have you heard of 'fuzzy logic'? It determines input somewhere between 'completely true' and 'completely false', between 0 and 1. I like the idea since we humans see often so dimly, so vague, so imperfect. If art is a testimony of life it sure should express this fuzzy side of life too. We like so much to have complete clarity and for sure nothing is wrong with clarity. But our clarity is surrounded by uncertainty. Anyway I should stop here, I'm no internet guru today. But I guess if there is meaning to such piece, besides the fun of writing (primarely that), this is the point. Thanks for your comment! 🙂
