The other night I was at a show, and one of the acts was basically a half hour drum solo. For entirely too long, the drumming was incredibly fast noise making, with hits every sixteenth or somesuch. When the the man threw in some rests, some syncopation, it was really interesting.
Ochre understands the importance of the space in a beat. It's what makes In Waves such an interesting listen. The beat obviously follows a pattern, but it's not an easy one to pin down, and it morphs nicely throughout the song.
If you listen to your music in some high quality headphones, you should go to Ochre's music page and download the FLAC versions of his playlists for their superior sound quality.
