Now, one thing all those rhythms have in common
14
73942
5371
Nah, satu kesamaan yang dimiliki
semua ritme
semua ritme
01:31
is math,
15
79313
1685
adalah matematika,
01:32
and I call it a-rhythm-etic.
16
80998
2702
dan saya menyebutnya a-ritme-tika.
01:35
Can you repeat after me? A-rhythm-etic.
Audience: A-rhythm-etic.

Hadirin: A-ritme-tika.
01:46
CC: Yeah.
21
94143
1437
CC: Ya.
01:50
Now all those styles of rhythm
22
98687
5242
Semua jenis ritme
01:55
are all counted in four
23
103929
3167
dihitung dalam empat ketukan
01:59
and then subdivided by three.
24
107096
3887
lalu dibagi lagi menjadi tiga.
02:02
What?
25
110983
1853
Apa?
02:04
Yeah. Three is a magic number.
26
112836
3597
Ya. Tiga adalah angka ajaib.
02:08
Three is a groovin' number.
27
116433
2490
Tiga adalah angka keren.
02:10
Three is a hip-hop kind of number.
28
118923
3852
Tiga adalah angka hip-hop.
02:14
But what does subdividing by three mean?
29
122775
2429
Tapi apa artinya dibagi menjadi tiga?
02:17
And counting off by four?
30
125204
1817
Dan menghitung dalam empat ketukan?
02:19
Well, look, think of it this way.
31
127021
2347
Coba pikirkan seperti ini.
02:21
A measure of music as a dollar.
32
129368
3737
Menghitung musik seperti uang satu dolar.
02:25
Now a dollar has four quarters, right?
33
133105
5962
Nah, satu dolar adalah
empat kali 25 sen, kan?
empat kali 25 sen, kan?
02:31
And so does a 4/4 measure of music.
34
139067
3856
Sama halnya dengan 4/4 hitungan musik.
02:34
It has four quarter notes.
35
142923
3643
Ada empat lembaran kuartal.
02:38
Now, how do you subdivide?
36
146566
2236
Lalu, bagaimana kita membaginya kembali?
02:40
Now let's envision this:
37
148802
4392
Coba bayangkan:
02:45
three dollars' worth of quarters.
38
153194
3753
uang 25 sen senilai tiga dolar.
02:48
You would have three groups of four,
39
156947
4020
Kalian akan punya tiga kelompok berisi
empat uang 25 sen,
empat uang 25 sen,
02:52
and you would count it,
40
160967
1577
dan kalian akan menghitungnya,
02:54
a-one-two-three-four, one-two-three-four,
41
162544
2012
satu-dua-tiga-empat, satu-dua-tiga-empat,
02:56
one-two-three-four. Together.
42
164556
2027
satu-dua-tiga-empat. Bersama-sama!
02:58
All: A-one-two-three-four,
one-two-three-four, one-two-three-four.
one-two-three-four, one-two-three-four.
43
166583
3384
Semua: Satu-dua-tiga-empat,
satu-dua-tiga-empat, satu-dua-tiga-empat.
satu-dua-tiga-empat, satu-dua-tiga-empat.
03:01
CC: Okay, now you feel that?
44
169967
2257
CC: Oke, sekarang kalian mengerti kan?
03:04
Now let's take those three groups of four
45
172224
4960
Nah, sekarang ambil tiga kelompok
isi empat itu
isi empat itu
03:09
and make them four groups of three.
46
177184
4419
dan menjadikannya empat kelompok isi tiga.
03:13
And listen to this.
47
181603
1833
Dan dengarkan ini.
03:15
A-one-two-three-four, one-two-three-four,
48
183436
2055
Satu-dua-tiga-empat, satu-dua-tiga-empat,
03:17
one-two-three-four, with me.
49
185491
2142
satu-dua-tiga-empat, bersama-sama!
03:19
One-two-three-four, one-two-three, come on, y'all!
50
187633
2682
Satu-dua-tiga-empat, satu-dua-tiga,
ayo semuanya!
ayo semuanya!
03:22
All: One-two-three-four,
one-two-three-four, one-two-three-four, ah.
one-two-three-four, one-two-three-four, ah.
51
190315
4922
Semua: Satu-dua-tiga-empat,
satu-dua-tiga-empat, satu-dua-tiga-empat.
satu-dua-tiga-empat, satu-dua-tiga-empat.
03:27
CC: There you go.
52
195237
1645
CC: Seperti itu.
03:28
All right, second line.
53

Satu-dua-tiga-empat, satu-dua-tiga.
03:38
One-two-three-four, one-two-three.
55
206111
2220
Satu-dua-tiga-empat, satu-dua-tiga.
03:41
One-two-three-four, one-two-three.

satu-dua-tiga, satu-dua-tiga.
04:21
So I want to take the second line beat
67
249764
3815
Saya akan gunakan ketukan musik brass
04:25
and the swing beat and put them together,
68
253579
2061
dan ketukan musik swing dan
menggabungkannya,
menggabungkannya,
04:27
and it sounds something like this.
69
255640

ABOUT THE SPEAKER
Clayton Cameron - DrummerA pioneer in brush technique, drummer Clayton Cameron has toured with Sammy Davis Jr., Tony Bennett and jazz legend Kenny Burrell.
Why you should listen
Clayton Cameron holds a unique title: Brush Master. That's because this percussionist prefers brushes to sticks, and has spent his career perfecting the art of brush technique. Cameron grew up in Los Angeles and started drumming at a young age on empty oatmeal boxes. After college, he moved to Las Vegas, where he was hired as the drummer for Sammy Davis Jr.'s big band. "It would be Sammy's tap dancing night after night that would inspire my brush playing," says Cameron.
During his tenure with Sammy Davis Jr., Cameron played with Dean Martin and Frank Sinatra. And, after moving to New York, he struck up a longterm friendship with Tony Bennett, and spent 15 years touring with the master. Cameron recorded 15 albums with Bennett, including his Grammy-winning Tony Bennett Unplugged.
Cameron has also worked with jazz legend Kenny Burrell, who encouraged him to teach at UCLA's Herb Alpert School of Music. In addition, Cameron released his debut album in 2012, Here's to the Messengers: Tribute to Art Blakey, and formed his own group, Jazz eXplosion. Cameron has also released several DVDs over the years as well as a book, Brushworks.
