🎸 You’ve been hearing the beat all wrong — and this video proves it.
Even when the music shifts, your ear clings to what it thinks is “right.” But when the groove drops out — or the time signature changes — the illusion is broken.
This isn’t just theory. It’s a rhythmic bias hardwired into how we hear music.
In this lesson, Nate exposes the tricks your brain plays on you — and shows how beat placement and rhythmic displacement can completely flip your perception.
🎯 You’ll hear:
• How your ear gets locked into the wrong groove
• The illusion behind beat displacement and rhythmic changes
• Why context shapes how we feel rhythm — and what happens when it disappears
• Real musical examples that reset your rhythmic compass
This is more than a lesson — it’s a wake-up call for your ears.
👉 Stick around to the end and experience the exact moment your brain resets — and you realize you’ve been hearing it wrong the whole time!
