Drummer Carl Olaison conducted an intriguing rhythmic experiment by recording himself playing three separate drum fills at slightly different tempos—99 BPM, 100 BPM, and 101 BPM—and layering them over each other. Initially, the recordings started in sync, but the slight tempo differences soon caused the fills to drift apart, creating a unique and gradually widening rhythmic lag. This experiment highlights the subtle yet powerful impact that even minor tempo variations can have on the overall sound, offering a fascinating glimpse into the intricacies of rhythm and timing in music.
