DescriptionUnusual versus usual time signatures.mid
English: 10 beats in 2/4 versus 5/4 and 15 beats in 3/4 versus 5/4. Multiples of two divide 2/4 evenly, and multiples of three divide 3/4 evenly (neither depiction requires ties), but neither divides 5/4 evenly (both depictions require ties). At, say, quarter note = 150 bpm and quarter note = 225 bpm, respectively, the first pair and the second pair are identical.

This media depicts a rhythm outside of a specific musical context. Rhythms without melody or harmony (no "distinctiveness"), may be used in compositions by multiple composers ("common material"), and may not be readily apparent in compositions. As such, a rhythm is a musical concept or technique, which is considered too simple to be eligible for copyright protection, or which consists only of technique, with no original creative input.
