Drum and bass

Drum N Bass and Breakbeat are two similar sounding genres that have coexisted together since the early 2000s in their current guise. There have been many off shoots of both genres over the years, such as Tech Step, Liquid, Jump up for Drum N Bass plus Nu Skool, Jungle, and Electro for Breakbeat, just to name a few. They are both comparable in sound, production techniques and the technology used to create the music, plus both can trace their roots deriving from Hardcore, which utilised breakbeats

performed in Mesa College Music building. Peter Kuhn had three instruments with him a bass clarinet, saxophone, and a Bb Clarinet. He used the bass clarinet and the saxophone during his first piece, and the clarinet on the second piece. Kjell Nordeson was on the drum but had a lot of instruments with him. Sometimes he would play the drums as a drums set but sometimes he would put some sort of objects on top of the drum to create different sound effects. He also had a small glockenspiel and a flexatone

trying to play the drums, I didn’t understand how to do it. I had no idea that drumming even had different styles and beats. It took me quite awhile to fully comprehend how complex it really is. Drumming is not easy at first, can be very complex, and requires a lot of practice. Learning to play the drums was not easy when I first started figuring out how to play a beat. First of all, I didn’t know which pieces I was supposed to play. After observing another person play the drums, I saw that I needed

First Days August 2009, in the dead heat of summer I awoke with excitement for the day to come. Shooting up out of my bed to look at my clock. It reads six o’clock in the morning. Going down my checklist in my head I start getting ready for the day. Today is the first day of band camp. Two weeks of sweating your ass off in the blazing Florida sun and enjoying every minute of it. First day Jitters seem to always happen to me; No matter if this is the first time or the fifth time. Its funny to think

By definition a drummer is a person or persons who plays a drum or drums, but I classify a true drummer as someone with patients that carries the song to give it a rhythmical beat. There’re many drummers out there and all of them are the same and some are different I identify myself as one of the different drummers. Some may ask what makes me different from other drummers? What makes me different from many other drummers is that I taught myself how to play without any professional lessons just youtube

whispers and laughter. My stomach was in all sorts of knots. I could feel my heart thumping vigorously inside my chest. It was a hot night and the giant sun-like lights that shined down on us from the McCallum theatre didn’t help at all. I held my bass guitar with a tight grip, repeating the notes I had practiced over and over in my head. Music has always been a thing in my family, a special thing most of us share. Family gatherings or parties never went without the sounds of guitars, pianos, or

instrument the kora. As the crowd began to arrive Jeff DeLuca, a friend of a friend, introduced the band, the band began to play. As the music began, and Cissokho began to strum on his kora, it became apparent that the music had a distinct blend. As the bass, snare, and hi hat symbol, which from my angle looked like it was consisted of shells, began to play, it had some traditional rock elements to each. Then, the kora also began to play. The kora is a unique instrument unlike anything I have ever heard

Ba Dum Tss Chilly early mornings, where the only perk of waking up at five a.m. is getting to see the beautiful sunrises. The smell of turf mixed with sweat. The sounds of laughter, horns bleating, and drums booming ringing through the air. One amazing word comes to mind when I think of these things- band.

percussion family. In Front ensemble, you are to value certain instruments which is, Xylophone, Marimba, synths, Vibraphone, and a couple more. With drumline you have a few main oes. Snare drum is used to create and keep tempo on the field and helps the people on the field keep tempo while marching. Bass drum is used to make dark and loud noises.

"wanted a new way to present his sampled-based productions in a live setting. He set about recruiting his own ensemble and Kormac’s Big Band was born. He found a brass section and complemented that core with an ever-evolving group consisting of bass, drums, electronics, guitars, synths, turntables, singers and MCs." Having a large ensemble of musicians on the stage is great for live performances but how has having different musicians available to him shaped his sound? "Before I worked with a 10 piece
