| | 4/4 beat - encyclopedia article about 4/4 beat. |
| | Sometimes, the choice of beat unit is simply down to tradition: the minuet, for example, is generally written in 3/4, and though examples in 3/8 do exist, a minuet in 3/2 would be highly unconventional. | | | For all meters, the first beat (the "downbeat") is stressed; in time signatures with four groups in the bar (such as 4/4 and 12/8), the third beat is also stressed, though to a lesser degree. | | | Assuming the breve to be a beat, this corresponds to the modern concepts of triple meter and duple meter, respectively. |

| | Beat generation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | A number of the beats were enthralled with Cassady — Ginsberg had an affair with him; and Kerouac's road trips with him in the late 40s became a focus of his second novel, On the Road. | | | The Beats in general were a large influence on members of the new "counterculture", for example, in the case of Bob Dylan who became a close friend of Allen Ginsberg. | | | Many of the original Beats remained active participants, notably Allen Ginsberg, who became a fixture of the anti-war movement -- though equally notably, Kerouac did not remain active on the scene: he broke with Ginsberg and criticized the 60s protest movements as "new excuses for spitefulness". |

| | TrouserPress.com :: Beat |
| | This problem was remedied somewhat on the Beat's second album, which is quite a bit heavier. | | | Though never scaling the heights of either band, The Beat (issued prior to the name conflict with the English Beat) is simple, satisfying power pop, all meat and no filler. | | | Although they seem to run out of steam — and songs — halfway through The Kids Are the Same, the band shows a high degree of musical volatility up to that point. |

| | Good point, and good music it is. Many people don't like "Beat," that's their choice, and I'll agree it's not as good as "Discipline," but it's still an amazing album. | | | "Beat" is definitely the more accessible of King Crimson's three albums of the '80's, but this is not a bad thing. | | | On the tracks which don't sound like Talking Heads, the band degenerate into a free form jazz sound, which is appropriate, given the title of the album, an ode to the Beat generation. |

| | Back beat - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | In popular music, back beat also refers to a percussion style or technique where a strong rhythmic accent is sounded on the second and fourth beats of the bar, most often from striking a snare drum. | | | In music a back beat (or "the off-beat") is any of the even "beats" as opposed to the odd downbeats, ie pulses which are weak on their respective metric levels. | | | The style emerged in the late 1940s in rhythm and blues recordings, and is one of the defining characteristics of rock and roll and is used in virtually all contemporary popular music, bossa nova being a notable exception. |
