| | 4/4 beat - encyclopedia article about 4/4 beat. |
| | Assuming the breve to be a beat, this corresponds to the modern concepts of triple meter and duple meter, respectively. | | | Thus a beat is the basic time unit of a piece; when you tap your foot to music, each tap is a beat. | | | Metre or meter is the measurement of a musical line into measures of stressed and unstressed beats, indicated in Western notation by a symbol called a time signature. |

| | Beat generation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | 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". | | | The original members or the Beat Generation group — in Allen Ginsberg's phrase, "the libertine circle" — used a number of different drugs. |

| | 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. |
