after having seens a couple of videos I realized that James Brown’s Make it Funky is made with 2 chords only: Dmin7 and G maj  
😀

clearly they are played in a syncopathed way that is hard to realize editing patterns

the only easy way I found is using the 5/4 7 Rhythm, that is under Rhythms \> Other Time Signatures, so a larger range of dedicated “Other Time Signatures” is needed and I hope they will come in next releases

Those are some great youtubers indeed. Especially if you are geared towards hip hop and r&b production. I’ve learned so much from them.
