Listen from 5'09" to 5'53".
Polymeter is responsible for many of my favorite morsels. In this example, The section (which you’ll hear twice) is comprised of 24 bars, but the bass and the guitar take different roads to get there. The guitar phrasing takes the traditional road, sounding off in 8 bars of ¾, while the bass does something pretty cool: 2 bars of 7/4, 2 bars of 7/8, and 1 bar of ¾ to fill it all out. I find this to be especially smooth because 3/4 and 7/4 meet at 21 bars (3 bars of 7, or 7 bars of 3), and after doing so, the bass and guitar both need only play 1 bar of ¾ to round things off nicely.
