Padlet 5 - Ratliff Ch 1 by Hayley Davis https://padlet.com/haybel/1bsgjdg6uuij Made with a lightning strike of genius en-us 2017-10-04 22:51:18 UTC 2026-02-24 16:21:39 UTC hello@padlet.com What is Repetition? haybel https://padlet.com/haybel/1bsgjdg6uuij/wish/194804867 The concept of repetition, according to Ratliff in his book “Every Song Ever,” is repeating certain elements of a musical piece in an artistic way. He describes how a car alarm is repetition but in an unpleasant and unintentional way. Reputation paired with dynamics and growth in a piece equals a great song, and I agree with Ratliff about that. ]]> 2017-10-06 18:02:14 UTC https://padlet.com/haybel/1bsgjdg6uuij/wish/194804867 Example from Ratliff's playlist: haybel https://padlet.com/haybel/1bsgjdg6uuij/wish/194805113 James Brown’s song “”Ain’t it Funky Now” exemplifies the concept of reputation in music in a very obvious way. It almost is the central theme of the song, however, Brown isn’t repeating the same words over and over again. He switches the message up every time, but keeps the way he says it the same so it feels like true repetition.

The repetition of this phrase really intensifies the meaning of the song. Even if you don’t understand what GD is saying, that phrase explains what the whole song is about.  ]]> 2017-10-06 18:03:43 UTC https://padlet.com/haybel/1bsgjdg6uuij/wish/194805547 "Repetition is a little more about music itself, and thus a little more about humankind alone." haybel https://padlet.com/haybel/1bsgjdg6uuij/wish/194807104 -Ratliff, Every Song Ever pg 14]]> 2017-10-06 18:06:35 UTC https://padlet.com/haybel/1bsgjdg6uuij/wish/194807104 "Music is a game between performers and audiences, a loop in which performers hold the upper hand, then audiences, the performers again." haybel https://padlet.com/haybel/1bsgjdg6uuij/wish/194807811 -Ratliff, Every Song Ever pg19]]> 2017-10-06 18:07:59 UTC https://padlet.com/haybel/1bsgjdg6uuij/wish/194807811 Khalid - Young Dumb & Broke haybel https://padlet.com/haybel/1bsgjdg6uuij/wish/194809542 Khalid uses repetition in his song "Young Dumb and Broke"]]> 2017-10-06 18:11:33 UTC https://padlet.com/haybel/1bsgjdg6uuij/wish/194809542 Science of Repetition in Music haybel https://padlet.com/haybel/1bsgjdg6uuij/wish/194811184 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1lo8EomDrwA]]> 2017-10-06 18:15:23 UTC https://padlet.com/haybel/1bsgjdg6uuij/wish/194811184 haybel https://padlet.com/haybel/1bsgjdg6uuij/wish/194811987 2017-10-06 18:16:56 UTC https://padlet.com/haybel/1bsgjdg6uuij/wish/194811987
