You see, Ratliff explains, music and rhythm is often explained in a way that seems like a set pattern or formula but in this chapter he talks about how it actually breaks loose from that. Rhythm and beats in a song start small and regulated, like a crystal. Crystals start small and slowly become large and form differently into a unique shape much like music. Ratliff explains that music is like this in the fact that it starts fairly straight forward so that the listener thinks the song is going to follow that formula but in reality the song can grow off of itself and turn into something unique or totally different. A song's rhythm can change or shift into something different and artists use this to add their own creative flair or even to change the tone of the song itself to make something that flows into making you feel a different way ]]> 2017-11-27 01:28:51 UTC https://padlet.com/jmquinones485/d0hcwkwsxrdr/wish/210232564 jmquinones485 https://padlet.com/jmquinones485/d0hcwkwsxrdr/wish/210234241 "[Rhythm is] the element of stability, the generator of form." - Edgar Varese]]> 2017-11-27 01:43:02 UTC https://padlet.com/jmquinones485/d0hcwkwsxrdr/wish/210234241 jmquinones485 https://padlet.com/jmquinones485/d0hcwkwsxrdr/wish/210234861 At around 45 seconds you hear the songs theme change from what seems happy and casual to a sad tone.]]> 2017-11-27 01:48:44 UTC https://padlet.com/jmquinones485/d0hcwkwsxrdr/wish/210234861 jmquinones485 https://padlet.com/jmquinones485/d0hcwkwsxrdr/wish/210235182 "I, uh, basically want to make people sad..." - Joji]]> 2017-11-27 01:52:27 UTC https://padlet.com/jmquinones485/d0hcwkwsxrdr/wish/210235182
