4 Group Performances - Originals

This is Saxona, Dan and my original performance of a typical 1950's song called Boogie and Jive. The drumming part was very good as it replicated similar drumming grooves with the 1950s with very simple and repetitive grooves throughout the song. Also I played a "honky tonk" rhythm which was notorious in the 1950's. I also mainly used snare only fills as that was also very prominent in the 1950's. The lead guitar, Dan, was playing the famous 12 bar blues scale throughout the song. This also links with the 1950's as in Elvis Presley's song 'Hound Dog' also has a 12 bar blues guitar part. The lyrics were also taken from the 1950's with lyrics such as 'Smokestack' which was a famous song in the 1950's played by Howlin' Wolf, the full song called 'Smokestack Lightnin' This is Saxona, Dan and my original performance of a typical 1960's song called The Local Gym. The guitar was played in 'Drop D...

318 Listening to Music

Here are my questions in order with the key responses.  1. What is your favourite genre of music?  Respondent 1: Classical and Rock. Respondent 2: Alternative. Respondent 3: Pop. 2. Why do you like this genre? What effect does it have on you? Respondent 1: Strong links to my childhood experiences. Respondent 2: I like it because it doesn't fit into ...

Rehearsal and Performance of Hey Jude in a Folk and Punk version

By -
Rehearsal: At the start of the rehearsal we had to set up our arrangement, this included bringing the drum kit across from the main college, we all contributed well and worked as a team to not only set up as quickly as possible, so that we made the most of the rehearsal, but we also took real care and positioned everything in a way which we thought worked the best and sounded the best. Also when we started to play the Folk half of Hey Jude Gustavo sometimes would play at a higher tempo than what we should have, but we came together really well and told him in a positive and supportive way that he was going too fast for the song. So I decided that to help keep Gustavo and also James, who was playing percussion, in time was to play some percussion at the right tempo to keep the song tight and make it sound professional. This was one of my strengths as I managed to help everyone keep in time and the song sounded much tighter and fresher, also I used eye contact with people who I knew we...
