Too complicated?
Hey,
Again...I'm noticing that my song might be a little too complicated. To me it's simple, but the timing seems strange to many people it seems, because it kind of turns around for drums all the time. But it's very simple IMO.
Check this out - no drums - and see if that seems too complex? (It's just a real quick demo I just threw on, might have some playing quirks but anyhow):

Doesn't seem very complex does it? Just six basic parts.
Now compare it with the same clip with drum loop underneath...I guess I do understand why the drummer thinks it complicated. Is it too much so? I just think it's quite natural to me. But sure, if you just play 1/4ths it will not work all the time as you hear:
