Adam Neely Wants To Blow Your Mind

At Ableton Loop 2017, bassist, composer and music educator Adam Neely gave a discussion, embedded above, that dives deep into music theory, discussing how everything is rhythm – connecting synaesthesia, the Harmony of the Spheres, Isaac Newton, pitch and polyrhythms.

“I go quite far off the deep end towards the end of this lecture,” notes Neely, “but it was all in service of proving my last point. If you stick it out, you see why I start rambling about things that might on the surface appear to be ‘too far out there,’ but are in reality a means of understanding some fundamentals of music perception.”
