Bob James feat. Harvey Mason solo on drums (live, 1985) Wiimote-Controlled Robot Drum Circle Makes Human Hippies Obsolete A musician has harnessed the power of two Nintendo Wiimotes to become a cyborg percussionist with the robo-band Jazari. His playing of one drum machine can evoke an automated response from another, so that he can go around the drum circle in a beautiful display of human-robot improvisation. The man behind the machine, Patrick Flanagan, is a composer who cites music theory, music cognition, and machine learning as the three "chin-stroking disciplines" that influence his work. He created Jazari with a nod to Al-Jazari, a polymath of the Arab world in the 13th century who supposedly created the world's first robot band. Each of the Wiimote buttons can control higher or lower tones on certain drums, while tiling down or up controls volume. Dually wielded Wiimotes also allows Flanagan to reverse the drum patterns on two drum machines, speed up one drum machine faster than the other, and do other neat tricks that alter the rhythm.
Legendärer Jazz-Schlagzeuger: Louie Bellson ist tot - SPIEGEL ONLINE - Nachrichten - Kultur Los Angeles - Er war gerade einmal drei Jahre alt, als er das erste Mal hinter dem Schlagzeug saß: Luigi Paulino Alfredo Francesco Antonio Balassoni, später nur noch Louie Bellson genannt - Drummer, Komponist, Musiklegende. Getty Images Schlagzeuger Bellson: "Bester Drummer aller Zeiten" Mit 17 gewann der in Rock Falls, Illinois, geborene Sohn eines Musikhändlers seinen ersten Schlagzeugwettbewerb, gegen 40.000 Konkurrenten, wie es in der Biografie auf seiner Internet-Seite heißt. Bellson war immer stolz auf sein Können und das Lob der Kollegen. Bellson gilt als der Erfinder der Double-Bass-Drum-Technik, das heißt, er verwendete zwei Basstrommeln, die mit dem Fuß bedient werden, nebeneinander. In seiner fast 60 Jahre andauernden Karriere spielte er mehr als 200 Alben ein und schrieb rund tausend Kompositionen und Arrangements - nicht nur für Jazz-Stücke, sondern auch für Swing, sinfonische Orchestermusik und Ballette. Bellson wurde in seinem Leben mit vielen Auszeichnungen geehrt.

Marcus Miller - Frankenstein (Live) NOJO - Neufeld-Occhipinti Jazz Orchestra 15 Most Influential Jazz Artists As one of the most well respected American art forms, jazz has shaped the music industry spawning both the careers of various musical geniuses, and an abundance of elemental new music genres. Jazz was developed in the late 19th century and early 20th century as American and European classical music was mixed with African and slave folk songs. These songs were played to a syncopated rhythm, and from this emerged ragtime, then Dixieland and subsequently Big Band, what many consider to be the beginning of modern jazz. There is obvious West African influence, visible in terms of how the music is written and played; swing rhythm, polyrhythm, improvisation and syncopation are all prominent examples which are almost exclusively characteristics of jazz music. Over the course of the 20th century, this art form has been changing drastically as new artists bring on new influence and new sound.

dinais por: Juan David Montes Exclama estuvo frente a frente con Dinais: Ximena Laverde y David “Culebro” González compartieron la historia de este dueto de intenciones merengueras. Ximena habla. Explica por qué Dinais. Porque era esa palabra típica del léxico de esas señoras de alta alcurnia, perdida por allá entre el espanglish y el esnobismo. Esnobismo sinónimo de la elegancia aparentosa de un buffet. Fotografía SPROCKETS Hace cinco años se dio el afortunado encuentro entre David y Ximena.
