Do you agree with Ratliff’s arguments regarding this musical element? Why or why not? Examine at least one musical example in Ratliff’s playlist in detail – how does it exemplify this musical concept? Find at least one musical example outside of Ratliff’s playlist and justify its inclusion – how does it exemplify this musical concept? en-us 2017-10-09 01:52:35 UTC 2017-10-23 00:16:53 UTC hello@padlet.com bloho97 https://padlet.com/bloho97/iqti60lb317g/wish/195082740 What is repetition in Ratliff’s mind? Repetition in his eye is focused around the music staying put while your perceptions of the music changes. While still having the music change as you stay still. This is a unique way of looking at repetition and I agree with the writer’s idea of repetition. This idea is in every song and a song with good repetition can be successful on that alone. For example, Kesha’s “We T Who We R” this song has a synth piano that leads the song and a drum beat keeping the time. Kesha’s autotuned voice fits well with the synth cords, this makes a repetitive song that doesn’t sound too bad to listen too. The song with in the play list gives a good idea of what Ratliff is eluting too when he talks about repetition in each song. If I had a song to include in to this playlist on the idea of repetition, I would include Rezz’s - “Edge” into this list. “Edge” is a repetitive song at its most basic core. Being an electronic song with no words in the song, it dynamically changes the songs rhythm to make it feel as if the listener is in a trance.
