Background music

Music is an incredible form of expression of many feelings. Whether the listener is happy or sad, there is always a song that they are able to connect with. A few songs that I have really connected with are “Crazy for You” by Adele, “Dog Days Are Over” by Florence + The Machine, “Money Trees” by Kendrick Lamar and “Animal I Have Become” by Three Days Grace. I have found myself turning to some of these songs many times throughout my life, for not only the lyrics, but the sound of the instruments…

It was late afternoon, as we gathered into the grey concrete-block home. Using the only light that peaked through the small openings on opposite sides of the room, we began to remove the gently worn tennis shoes from the thick dark green military-styled bags. On the dull floors, a few other members began to separate the piles by sections, Men, Women and Children, then by size. In orderly fashion, each local woman stepped in, scanned the floor, then happily grabbed a pair before exiting. Coming…

When I first started the semester, the only real exposure I had to any of the arts was the music I listened to, two art museums and Bharatanatyam, a classical dance from India. Many events and readings later, I find myself with more insight in the arts. I have much more appreciation for all of the various arts, specifically ballet, opera, and the orchestra. Prior to this semester, I always held a biased disinterest in these types of performances due to the fact that I didn 't feel the need to…

controlled chaos, the musician next to me accidentally knocked over my keyboard stand and I smiled. The music made everything else seem miniscule in comparison. It was mandatory for me to give the crowd what they wanted. The pastor (my father), stood on the podium and began to stomp the floor with his shiny black…

+Techno Math im pretty sure you're even allowed to use and monetize it if your work falls into fair use meaning you use it as background music for example. Aslong as you put your own work into your video that should have something unique/ the song shouldnt be the essence of your video, as far as im concerned. Nevertheless big music companies will often try to get your video down even if your using it fairly. The system is rigged. walked through the halls of CTU New York. This man held a…

discover the value of music in the `Disney Experience` by tracing its role throughout the history of the company from its early use in cartoons to its current incarnation as a stand-alone product(for example, soundtrack recording) (Author by Charles Carson). In this paper, I explore some of the ways in which music operates in the Disney theme park experience. In the context of Walt Disney World, my belief is that music functions in at least three specific capacities 1) music links current Disney…

On November 12, 2015 I attended the Veterans Day Jazz free form concert held at CBC’s choir room. This was the first time I ever went through the music/art building and it was pretty cool. The choir room looked, well like a choir room; inspirational posters on the wall, instruments, sound system, etc. When I first walked into the room I was bit overwhelmed with the amount of people in the small to medium sized room. There was a total of three high schools performing and of course CBC. The high…

feeling of respect for what all the old patron had experienced. The second experience Levi had was when he went to his first Basque festival at the Basque Center. He said at first he felt out of place with all of the different dances going on and loud music. Even with all of this happening, everyone was so friendly and wanting to know more about him. Levi said after that night he felt right at home and that everyone was a friend even though they just met. Another important question that I…

There was a certain call and response between the instruments if I may say so, where both instrument repeat the same sound back and forth. Throughout this song you mostly hear cymbals in the background and a little bit of solo by each the guitarist and the keyboardist. Then the song “Feel Like Making Love” was third. It was executed in a groove style and you could also hear the electronically recorded sound of cymbals and drums throughout the…
