Blues Music

I don't know. Maybe a saxaphone.

Gospel and R&B

The first note of a musical scale depends on the key you're in. For instance, if you're in the key of A, the first note, known as the root, would be A. If you're in the key of F#, the root would be F#. No matter if you're playing the major scale, the minor scale, the blues scale, or any other scale, the root always matches the chord you're playing over.

Dusty Springfield fits these parameters. She was thought to have resembled and possibly (Voiced) Jayne Mansfield in some sound material. You don"t have to say you love me, just be close at hand!- indeed!

There are several North American bluish-green grasses of the genus Poa pratensis. Yes, it is green, but it has a blue hue to it. Bluegrass music is named after the band that first defined the sound that came to be called bluegrass; this was Bill Monroe and his Bluegrass boys and they were named for Bill's home state of Kentucky, the 'Bluegrass' state.

-With Gospel,there's an uplifting message in it other than talking about something depressing. -Blues is always talking about something sad. -Gospel music is Christian music and has lyrics referring to God and how you should be saved. -Blues music has lyrics that refer to sad and depressing things.

Blues is invented by slaves from New Orleans To make blues music was their way to express their sadness. They say that blues comes from blue, which is a sad colour.

This answer is F**** wrong

This may be more opinion than fact. I believe that Blues music consists of a singer, guitar, bass and drums. Maybe a piano but no brass or horns, these belong in soul music.

i don't know, I'm looking for the same thing, haahaa :)

Try soaking the fabric in a mixture of water and bleach. Start with a little amount of bleach and add more if you feel it is needed. Hope this helps!

I may be completely wrong, but i looked the word "blue" in a dictionary, it says "feeling of sadness" i can relate that definition to the fact that the slaves taken from Africa were the ones who kinda created and gave birth to this genre when they chanted their songs. And most of those songs talked about being slaves and having a miserable life. So... i think that's got a lot to do with it.

Mainly Gospel music.

The problems and heartaches that black people in the USA have.

Where did the band blues start?

Outstanding is the guitar. There's no blues without the guitar. Add a base guitar of your choice, electric base or the string base. Got a drum or two lying around somewhere? Even a bucket. Throw it in and get some brushes for a quiet night with friends. Nothing raucous (sp); everything enjoyable. A nice, easy-to-carry Yamaha electric piano, select organ of the B3 style. Hubba-Hubba. Get a singer, tell him or her to spin a story based on her life, follow her lead, and go to town, my man. go to town . . . . . . .(:- But this is for a night at home. Sorry, I get carried away. I enjoy jazz so much.

Rock is short for rock and roll, they are essentially the same. The term rock and roll is typically associated with classic rock more.

Delta Blues, often called the original blues. This includes Robert Johnson, Leadbelly, and Son House. Chicago Blues, which is basically the delta blues but electric. Muddy Waters is considered the first, but there is also Howlin' Wolf and Little Walters solo stuff is quite good. Texas Blues, Memphis Blues, Detroit Blues and then Blues Rock that originated in the 1960's.

sex, drugs, rock and roll. << this is not a convention.

conventions means the time singature ( in this case, rock is 4/4 timing )

the heavy solo's in the middle 8 section, the lyrics about 'sticking it to the man, politics, love, drugs etc.

Although there are many different types of rock music..

funk rock,

psychelic rock,

heavy rock,

rock and roll,

blues rock..

etc, etc,

Each of these styles of rock has its own different conventions, e.g. The blues has the E minor pentatonic blues scale where solo's are improved from, but still keeping the 4/4 drumming etc.

hope that helped a bit.

Many solo artists take their spare riffs and beats and put em all together to make music. Some focuss strictly on solo stuff. Many are succesfull. And most of em' also record solo as well. Many better than others. The first step would be the program you use. There are some free ones; Audacidy, and Wave Recording. Some cost a buck or two; Pro Tools, and Fruty Loops. Many use even the better ones, and still have poor sound quality. It could be something major like bad instruments, or it could come down to a short in your mic imput. The first thing you should check, is your mic. You can get a good one at radio shack. but make sure it works properly. You dont want a "airy" sound to it. you want a full sound. (if your looking for alot of digital effects, you should go with Pro tools, or Fruty Loops). you want to record in a room or area that is COMPLETELY quiet. Because you mic will pick up everything. DRUMS. If possible, you should have more that one mic for this, if not then put the mic close to the kick drum. You dont want it to be close to the simbles because you will have a horrible "SHHHHHHHHH". If you still get the "shhhh" then just do your best to tone down abit on the simbles. GUITARS (and bass). If you have some sort of noise supresser (a nessesity if you are using overdrive or distortion), then it is good to have the mic right next to the speaker, but if you dont have one, then put it at a distance so the mic wont pic up all the spare noise. Keyboard. If you like the sound of your keyboard more through a keyboard amp, then its fine to mic the amp. if you dont care, you can mic the keyboard speakers (if you have em). Wind Insteuments. The most important part of recording wind instuments is making sure breaths arent loud enough for the mic to pic up. other than that just record close to the mic and it will be good. non-electric, and acoustic. to get a full bright sound, it will take proper mixing. just record close to the insrument. Mixing and Engineering. This is the MOST IMPORTANT part of recording. There are many different ways of doing this. You can make the music sound completely differnent just my mixing and engineering. It can be Glossy and Bright, or Dull and sharp. Or Both! You cant be told how to mix your project. You have to try the different programs and see witch one is best for your style and genre of music. Youll prolly get the "airy" sound at first. Use a digital "noise remover" in the program. If it doesent completely take it away, then mess around with other effects to get rid of it. But its fun, to make your own music and record it. or record with others. but, the best of luck thanks. if you have any questions email me. sk8sk8nkx@gmail.com

Adding Chromatic note before last note.

Many are based on the 12 bar blues (I-I-I-I-IV-IV-I-I-V-IV-I-I, with each being for one bar), although a16 bar blues has also been developed. Some more modern blues music, such as rock and roll, will use the 7ths of each of these chords. The harmony of traditional blues music tended towards plagal, or the sub-dominant. Listen to Muddy Waters or Jimmy Reed. Some however, drone on the tonic (I) while the singer changes inflection to make it appear as the song is moving to IV and V. Example would be Robert Johnson.

The tonality of the blues is predominantly major, with the inclusion of blues notes (flattened (not flatted) 3rds and 7ths (a little jazzy)). Technically, this really isn't correct, as the Blues is a descendant of African music, and that isn't built around the major and minor scales. It can also use the Western adaption, the 'blues scale'; this explanation assumes 'tonic' as the tonic of a Western major scale: the tonic, flattened 3rd, 4th, sharpened 4th/flattened 5th, natural 5th and flattened 7th. Therefore, the blues scale on c will use the noted C, E flat, F, F sharp/G flat, G, B flat.

It's based on an oral tradition, meaning that it is not passed down to the next generation on paper, but by mouth. The (almost entirely black American) history of the blues can be orally traced back as far as 1860, but the form was popularized during the 1910s. The composer W.C. Handy ('St. Louis Blues', 'Basin Street Blues') was particularly influential.

One of the most important features of the Blues is called "call and response." This is directly from African music tradition. The singer sings a line, pauses, and repeats the line, with subtle changes (it's the best description I could write). This can also occur between a singer and instrumentalist, with either, or both improvising. If the singer improvises, they may often employ a technique called scat singing (Louis Armstrong had a particularly exceptionable ability to do this) in which the pitch and rhythm were improvised and the lyrics were random syllables such as 'Doo-dy doo-da yay'.

Bessie Smith and Billie Holiday are notable examples of blues artists. Blues is, and was, often incorporated into jazz as a system of improvisation. In more modern times, composers such as George Gershwin and the awesome British composer Michael Tippett have used the blues, or variations on it, but these works often use 'blues' in the sense of a 'bluesy mood' - sad or melancholy - incorporating some aspects of traditional blues rather than adhering strictly to the 'blues rules'.

Jazz and Blues is Music Genres that originated at the beginning of the 20th century in African American communities in the Southern United States from a confluence of African and European music traditions. From its early development until the present, jazz has incorporated music from 19th and 20th century American popular music.
