The Mighty Dub Kats, "Just a Groove". Big big house/disco tune at the moment in the UK at least. Uses a 15-beat bar structure most of the time - kinda 4/4-3/4-4/4-4/4. drops to regular 8-cum-16 at times. Wicked! a fair bit of of stuff by Autechre / Gescom uses "funny" rhythms. eg "Five" from first Gescom EP is in 5, and there's one somewhere in a non-tripleted 9/8 rhythm. very strange. One of the tracks on the Bola 1 EP on SKAM is in 3 I think, certainly it's not in 4 or 8 One of the tracks on FSOLs "Far out son of Lung" is a hip-hop beat in 3/4 I heard something at a dub/ambient club event which was in 21/8,
