Kids In the Hall- The Bass Player

QLIMAX - The Most Insane Rave Party Ever.

Goofball_Jones says...

Ok, I know I sound like my dad right now...but do the "songs" ever change or is it the same bass drum/bass rift over and over and over again for 5 hours? Honestly, I've been to a few of these and the music sounds the same through the ENTIRE time. Then afterwards you get these morons saying "wow, that was a great DJ!". What? WTF are they talking about?

A computer with a big HD and pre-programmed music is all you need, then anyone can be a "great DJ" without any musical training at all. Kids, don't learn how to play an instrument. Forget about music theory and practicing those damn scales...all you need is a computer, a sound system and YOU TOO can be a famous DJ! No training required.

Ok, I've officially become my dad now when he used to rail against my music (Led Zeppelin, The Who, The Stones).

how to write a fugue, using a theme by britney spears

daphne says...

I think this is amazingly clever. He's demonstrating how a fugue is constructed by overlapping his voice. Each line in a fugue is the same, but different, and will meet every once in a while. Did you notice how that happened while each of his "selves" was talking? That was brilliant.

If you sit back and listen to his talking as if it were a music piece, I think you'll understand what he was going for. You'll notice the different "tempo." And when there is only one of his "selves" talking, that demonstrates something that I can't remember from music theory. It's...poyphonic something. Maybe.

This really shows how a fugue is constructed (essentially, three different imitations of the same piece) and how they all work together...a tonal centeredness.

This must have been a nightmare to edit.
