| | rhythm and pitch in music |
| | For every piece of music, there is a correct rate or rhythm for maximum harmony: this is the rate at which the basic rhythmic pulse is synchronised with the musical keynote. | | | Accordingly, since both pitch and rhythm are frequency based, it is possible to 'tune' subsonic pulse, or rhythm, which can be detected aurally but not heard as 'frequency', with musical pitch: in other words: | | | Normal, slower, overtly sounded rhythms - typical of percussion in music - are at subsonic frequency and are heard and felt as discrete repeating sounds. |

| | Bar (music) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | In music with a regular meter, bars represent a periodic pulse in the music. | | | In musical notation, a bar or measure is a segment of time defined as a given number of beats of a given duration. | | | In music employing mixed meters, barlines are instead used to indicate the beginning of rhythmic note groups, but this is subject to wide variation: some composers use dashed barlines, others (including Hugo Distler) have placed barlines at different places in the different parts to indicate varied groupings from part to part. |

| | Meter Basics |
| | Meter is a recurring pattern of stresses or accents that provide the pulse or beat of music. | | | Therefore, it is not uncommon for composers to create music using existing notation that is perceived as being inconsistent with what is performed. | | | Meter is notated at the beginning of a composition with a time signature. |

| | One of Bob Marley’s most prophetic lines was, "one good thing about music is you feel no pain." Britain’s Steel Pulse communicates the ideals of Marley and freedom of reggae music, delivering forth positive vibrations (for lack of a better word) for their audiences. | | | Like their contemporaries Black Uhuru, Burning Spear, Toots & The Maytalls and Lee Perry; Steel Pulse, led by founder David Hinds on vocals and guitar, along with keyboardist Selwyn Brown and drummer Steve Nisbett, continue to tour heavily, while releasing new music that sparks the same joyous respons that their old favorites elicit. | | | For the past 25 years, Steel Pulse has internationally dedicated their sound to fighting injustice and environmental dangers over their fine tuned reggae sound. |

| | Sampling produces a series of values which may be represented in various ways - the output from the process can be a series of analog pulses (Pulse-height modulation) or a series of fixed amplitude pulses (Pulse position modulation or Pulse-width modulation). | | | Audio waveforms are commonly sampled at 44.1k samples/s (CD) or 48k samples/s (professional audio). | | | Some early CD's suffered from Quantising distortion which was especially audible on quiet piano notes, adding a granular noise that sounded like 'sand in the speakers'. |

| | Musical minimalism : In classical music of the last 35 years, the term minimalism is sometimes applied to music which displays some or all of the following features: repetition (often of short musical phrases, with subtle variation over long periods of time); emphasis on consonant harmony; a steady pulse. | | | Mertens' music has its roots in American Minimal Music, a tradition which holds that composition can be achieved through the use of the fewest possible musical devices. | | | Minimal music thus emerges as the latest stage in a development leading from Schoenberg, Webern, Stockhausen and Cage. |

| | A flexible environment for music composition in non-European contexts |
| | Most computer music environments privilege music representations derived from western common music notation, which make it difficult to explore musical ideas based on different concepts. | | | As a result, present-day Indian music is becoming increasingly 'noisy', and with the fashion of taped music it is also contaminating contemporary dance and drama. | | | Software for music composition often relies on music representations privileging the twelve-tone system and binary divisions of time intervals. |

| | Steel Pulse still make some interesting music, but they seem to have strayed from the deep grooves that drew me to them in the first place, and I have to think a lot of people probably agree. | | | This being a best of, that's a moot point, but I point it out to illustrate just how wonderful the music on this collection is by comparison. | | | As has been the case throughout the Ultimate Collection series, Hip-O doesn't skimp on content, packing the CD with 73 and a half minutes of prime Pulse, ranging from their deepest grooves ("Ku Klux Klan," "Revolution Dub Take 1") to their finest high spirited vocal harmonies ("Burning Flame," "Evermore"). |
