	Beat - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In physics and sound, a beat is the oscillation between zero intensity and full intensity that occurs when two frequencies (which are not harmonically related) are added together, caused by alternating constructive and destructive interference of the pressure waves.
		beat in music is a pulse of sound that marks the rhythm.
		Beat is also then the meter, rhythm, riddim, or groove of a piece and may indicate solely the bass and snare drum rhythm parts.

		A beat is a pulse on the beat level, the metric level at which pulses are heard as the basic unit.
		Thus a beat is the basic time unit of a piece; when you tap your foot to music, each tap is a beat.
		Much music is characterised by a sequence of stressed and unstressed beats (often called "strong" and "weak") organised into a meter and partially indicated by a time signature, the speed of which is determined by a tempo.

	Beat Frequencies
		The beat frequency is equal to the absolute value of the difference in frequency of the two waves.
		Beats are caused by the interference of two waves at the same point in space.
		The image below is the beat pattern produced by a London police whistle, which uses two short pipes to produce a unique and piercing three-note sound.

		Diabolic Swedes The Hives are one of the cockiest bands in rock.
		Not to say their music is cock rock; far from it.
		Always looking the part and only ever dressing in fl and white, none of these five guys will shy away from telling you that their band contains genius, or that their music is amazing — or from suggesting that they are the greatest band on earth for that matter.

	World Beat: Music From Somewhere Else (15 January 2002) - PopMatters Music Column
		Nonetheless, the most popular forms of "world music" tend to be the heavily percussive, eminently danceable musics of Africa and the African diaspora, such as West African highlife, Jamaican reggae, Dominican merengue, and the many forms of Cuban-inspired salsa.
		As the phrases "international roots", "world beat" and "music from 'outside' Western pop culture" suggest, the "world" in question is an inclusive one of traditional communities and their artistic envoys struggling to express their cultural identities somewhere on the western periphery.
		The global intersection of music, culture and commerce speaks to the dynamic social character of an emergent transnational phenomenon, but the cultural and aesthetic meanings produced in the process are hardly self-evident.

		When a beat is combined with patterns of accents, and other patterns of changes in pitch, volume etc., then you have the beginnings of rhythm.
		This might be literally by a stronger beat perhaps by a drum, or it might be implied by the harmonic or melodic shape of the music.
		Within a bar of four or more beats, there will almost certainly be a sub-division, which means that another beat in the bar will be felt as being stronger than the others, but not as strong as the first.

	The Fantastical Beat Circus Music Show
		Perhaps the most startling coincidence regarding illustrator David Goldin and The Beat Circus is that Goldin had actually illustrated the band's instrumentation including banjoist and accordionist (later to come to life as Brandon Seabrook and Alec K Redfearn) prior to ever making contact with the ringleader or hearing about the band.
		Also of note, The Beat Circus Vaudeville Orchestra is in pre-production on an original score to award-winning animator Lorelei Pepi's incredible 1930s-styled cartoon musical Happy and Gay scheduled for release this year and featuring the voices of the fabulous cabaret singers Leah Callahan and Brian King.
		DJ Brian Carpenter, frontman and mastermind of The Beat Circus and host of the infamous Free Association, will be spinning his maniacal brand of noise and carnival music Thursday night January 13 starting at 9 at River Gods in Central Square Cambridge as part of the monthly Ointment series.

	New Beat history, Belgium
		This monotonous discotheque dance-music, powered by a slow and heavy beat, combined the new elements of house music with elements which existed in Belgian music for a number of years.
		Techno heroes like Carl Graig are full of praise for Belgian dance music, the Chemical Brothers based one of their singles "Hey Boy, Hey Girl" on an old track from Praga Khan, and a couple of years ago also The Prodigy showed they were very good at borrowing from Praga.
		Belgian new beat was certainly not inspired by the techno and house that were simultaneously maturing in Detroit and Chicago respectively.

	OZ Beat: Music That Matters
		There’s something about the ability to create music that is emotional, big, hard, stripped down, not too dressed up but definitely dressed for an outing, while at the same time, enormous in delivery.
		To call The Libertines just a rock band, just a bunch of kids, just another sound in the new resurgence of 60s rock and 70s punk, would be equivalent to witnessing a tsunami and calling it another day the beach.
		The music, the musicians, the stage show, the lyrics, the versatility is beyond what anyone can really expect from a band in this most modern age.

	The Classical Music Beat
		Classical music's canon contains works from hundreds of years of composition, and from this some of the most revolutionary, representative, and superior works of this extensive, well-preserved selection can be enjoyed today with confidence that they sound very similar to performances in the composer's time.
		Classical-period music is distinguishable from Baroque music by its plainness of style, without the heavy and complex Baroque figurations, and from Romantic music by its general emotional coolness and its regularity of form.
		Classical music was written specifically for the sake of music; there is no grand design or no emotion built into it.

		The music ranges from Spanish classical guitar-driven hymns to the heartwarming, Andean sound of the siku, a variant of the pan flute.
		The music is truly original -- see for yourself by clicking on the song "Tupik" by the band "Urfin Juice." Also, for a taste of the more traditional Russian folk music, click on the list of songs by Peter Leshchenko.

		To declare that a certain rhythm or beat is 'evil' cannot be proved entirely.
		I would agree with his admission that "to declare a certain rhythm or beat is 'evil' cannot be proved entirely." It is an instance of guilt-by-association, as if someone were suggesting that perfume be banned because men have been seduced by women wearing perfume.

	Amazon.com: Music: Beat (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		What we got in "Beat" was a fine effort, with singer/guitarist Adrian Belew moving solidly to the front, but not an adequate follow up to the remarkable developments of thier first effort.
		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.
		Such is the problem with King Crimson's "Beat," their follow-up to 1981's masterful, groundbreaking "Discipline." As with "In the Wake of Poseidon" (1970), their encore to 1969's "In the Court of the Crimson King" (which officially launched the progressive rock movement), "Beat" represents an erratic effort to continue King Crimson's tradition of relentless trailblazing.

		"Beat" is also the first Crimson album to possess a sound that actually reflects its era--here, much of the music has a distinctively 80s flare.
		Add to what little "Beat" has already going for it, are the lion's share of the trite, aimless lyrics written by Belew, which, for the most part, can be written by your average preschooler.
		As for the musicianship on "Beat", the star player here is Tony Levin, who shows the most depth of the four musically, with the other three basically phoning in their licks - which, for the most part, are blatantly repetitive and lack focus.

	Afro Beat - Recommended Records (Slipcue Music e-zine African Music Guide)
		The "Afro-Beat" sound -- African dance music fused with rock and modern funk -- was pioneered by Nigerian superstar, Fela Kuti, but it soon spread throughout the African continent, with dozens of bands taking up the new style.
		Like Fela Kuti, Bucknor saw music as a way to attract people to politics (and politics as a way to attract people to music), and many songs have an interesting socially conscious component.
		A widely-sampled funk band from the disco era, this group was also known as Ice, and though centered in Paris during the African pop boom of the 1970s, they actually hailed from the U.S. Nonetheless, their Kool And The Gang-meets-LA Express instrumental jams are often thought of in terms of the Afro-Beat that influenced them.
