For example, most people wake up, go to work, come home, go to sleep, and do it all again the next day. Although we as humans can get stuck in this routine, music does not get stuck like this, and instead takes different turns and twists during the same song or listening session. This allows artist to involve different sounds into their musical pieces which allows for more emotional connection with the music. Ratliff calls rhythm a "non-formula" meaning there is no exact way to construct rhythm. In summary, all music is different and each songs has a different set of feeling, form and patterns. ]]> 2017-11-27 02:43:29 UTC https://padlet.com/ryanmanley0/g7wit6kobh5z/wish/210241158 ryanmanley0 https://padlet.com/ryanmanley0/g7wit6kobh5z/wish/210241924 Ratliff's example of linking is Edgard Varese. This artist explains that if music is predictable, then it is no longer exciting and there is not anything to explore. He says that the best part of music is when something beautiful happens unexpectedly.]]> 2017-11-27 02:50:14 UTC https://padlet.com/ryanmanley0/g7wit6kobh5z/wish/210241924 ryanmanley0 https://padlet.com/ryanmanley0/g7wit6kobh5z/wish/210242289 Stevie Ray Vaughan is a great example of this. His guitar solo's always have unexpected patterns and chord combinations. He even sometimes plays freestyle solos without planning them, he just lets his soul flow out of his guitar. This creativity and unplanned playing makes his songs fun and exciting to listen to since the listeners do not know what is coming. ]]> 2017-11-27 02:53:43 UTC https://padlet.com/ryanmanley0/g7wit6kobh5z/wish/210242289 ryanmanley0 https://padlet.com/ryanmanley0/g7wit6kobh5z/wish/210243090 This is a video of a sound check before one of Stevie's concerts and you can feel that he is spontaneously playing and letting his feelings flow. This video is very exciting because you don't know what you will hear next!!]]> 2017-11-27 03:00:30 UTC https://padlet.com/ryanmanley0/g7wit6kobh5z/wish/210243090
