	HIGH BIAS -- Album Reviews
		Escapade's two pieces have a bit more percussion percolating under the surface, but also drift more than drive (though "Transformation 2" threatens to build up a head of steam).
		This in turn prejudiced me against any band with songs that were basically folk pop dressed in alternative rock drag.
		Her songs are a bit more problematic; though there's nothing here that could be called wretched, there's no stroke of raving genius either.

	The Artist
		The band is easily up to this challenging material, supporting and occasionally stepping forward on piano, foot percussion, guitar, bouzouki, mandolin, and whistles.
		Opening with the Hot Club of France style "Blue Drag", he pours his heart and soul into a great program of traditional and not so traditional dance music.
		With Raymond coaching and exposing them to a wide variety of styles, and their sister Julieâs solid piano accompaniment, they soon made the move from competing at fiddle contests to performing as invited guests, and to appearances on national television and radio.

	Tower Records - Yeeeah Baby [Explicit Lyrics] - Big Punisher
		Personnel includes: Christopher Lee "Big Punisher" Rios (rap vocals); Lord Sear, Opera Steve, Prospect, Donell Jones, Cuban Link, M.O.P., SunKiss, Remi Martin, Drag-On, Fat Joe (vocals); Joe Davi (guitar); Dahoud, Dave "Jam" Hall (keyboards); Papo Pepin (percussion); DJ LV (scratches); Tony Sunshine (background vocals).
		The Source (5/00, p.186) - 4 mics out of 5 - "...An even more in-depth peep inside the heart and soul of a man in constant struggle with himself....a backstage pass to the all-out jam that was Pun's personality: street-wise, intellectually sharp, sex-crazed - and funny as hell..."
		Completed shortly before his death, YEEEAH BABY, the sophomore album from Christopher "Big Pun" Rios, is packed with the same energy and street credibility that laced his platinum debut, Capital Punishment.

		Batatinha is the preferred route for the percussion-heavy Afro axé blocos as well as the colorful drag queen blocos.
		Sticking close to the historic center, Batatinha runs from Praça da Sé to the Praça Municipal, then to Praça Castro Alves, and finishes up in Campo Grande.
		It follows the coastal road from Ponto da Barra to Ondina Beach.

	When Edvard Met Bela, Something Really Clicked (washingtonpost.com)
		Click on Bela Bartok, then click on Edvard Munch, and you can, for about half a minute, listen to the Music for Strings, Percussion and Celesta while watching a slow pan over "The Scream."
		About five clicks in from the main page of the vast PBS Web site is a little drag-and-click feature called "Match the Music.
		It is remarkably addictive, even for those suspicious of the old "What does this painting sound like?" approach to art.

	Ink Blot Magazine: The Pavement Mothership
		Meanwhile, Gary Young was excused, being replaced by Steve West, and the Pavement sound was further fleshed out by Mark Ibold on drums and Bob Nastanovich on percussion and assorted screams.
		As the rush of air seeped into Matador's balloon, Drag City wised up and released a collection of the early tracks, Westing (By Musket and Sextant), in 1993.

	Filmtracks: Masters of the Universe (Bill Conti)
		As bold and ambitious as Conti's music is in all of its thunderous cymbal crashes and timpani rolls, the themes and underlying constructs are stale renditions of Williams' Superman music, and despite the harmonic pleasures that the music delivers, significant deficiencies in inspiration drag the score down.
		Only occasionally does Conti utilize varied percussion to represent the world of Eternia and its eclectic characters, and thus, the traditional orchestral sounds are almost too patriotic for the subject matter.
		Conti himself was coming off of his remarkable success for The Right Stuff and the Rocky scores.

		On another track, changing from a Scots strathspey to a polka might unnerve musicians of lesser talent, but here, in these expert hands, it is executed with snap and sizzle.

	Salvador : Nightlife : Carnaval Frommers.com
		Batatinha is the preferred route for the percussion-heavy Afro axé blocos as well as the colorful drag queen blocos.
		The meeting of the trios (encontro dos trio eletricos) is the gathering of a couple of blocos that have finished their parade and meet to compete for the last bit of energy the crowd has to offer.
		Although this event is an informal one, it takes place every year at the Praça Castro Alves.

	Jan & Dean biography >> liveDaily
		Lubin overdubbed a band led by Don Ralke on top of the basic track of two vocals, a piano, and percussion, and issued the song on Arwin in the late winter of 1958.
		Beginning with the Drag City album, in particular -- which was their first LP of all original material -- their albums showed a level of care and sophistication in the production and the selection of tracks that was unusual, if not extraordinary, for most rock & roll LPs in 1963.
		Jan & Dean were the subject of a TV movie in the late '70s and remained much loved (if not sufficiently respected or appreciated) icons of early-'60s rock & roll.

	Buy drum beat from PowerFX
		drum beat A wicked collection of real drums, percussion and bass with electronic beats and synths for the serious recreation of nu generation, Soca sensation.
		drum beat Then you can drag and drop the file into a selected track.
		There is nothing new about sample cds containing vintage drum box sounds, but the concept for "Vintage Drum Machines" came about with the heavy use of vintage/80's drum machines and elements in a lot of contemporary music production (retro-electro Clash).

	Drag Racing Online- Special
		Further 1961 heroics included a runner-up in Top Gas to Farnsworth’s "Percussion" dragster on Memorial Day weekend at Union Grove and a runner-up to Schubeck in Top Gas at the ‘61 World Series at Cordova.
		Kranenburg, who originally got together with Roche and Mattison reportedly in 1958 with the 888 fuel altered sedan, took over the wheel of the duo’s blown and injected Chrysler-powered fuel dragster and excelled, having run as fast as 195.22 mph lap at Union Grove by July of 1962.
		Kranenburg was one of drag racing’s first really great double duty drivers.

	Joan Jett's spirit is with Jett City
		Even though the riffs and percussion are right-on, the first tip-off that Jett City is not out to imitate Joan Jett is that their frontman is, well, a man. Who is not in drag.
		Hendry was born after that song pushed its way onto the charts, but he remembers playing it with his friends when he was younger.
		Like Joan Jett, they're living in the past and present and bringing together four generations in the band with Grant, 47, Sweeney, 39, Tubbs, 29, and Hendry, 18.

	Black Rainbow - A Rasputina Clique
		In many ways, she was like most girls who play the cello when they are little, in her case so little that she had to drag the instrument behind her while making the long walks to her lessons.
		Except for percussion, the cello remains the only instrument in most of Rasputina's songs.
		In popular music the cello usually is limited to providing solemn accompaniment on poignant ballads from the Beatles' "Eleanor Rigby" to Nirvana's "All Apologies," but in Creager's hands it encompasses everything from delicate chamber music to corrosive rock and roll.

	TheWGALChannel.com - Susquehanna Calendar - January 7: Marc Cohn With Special Guest Kaki King At Whitaker Center
		Don’t let her petite figure fool you; she is powerful enough to drag the art of solo acoustic guitar back to prominence, with an edginess that matches the temperament of her own generation.
		Instrumental passages speak volumes in her acoustic melodies and rhythms because, for King, the guitar isn't just a reverie machine, it's a percussion instrument.
		Kaki King is conquering the streets and stage with her styles.

	Rudiment - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Others, such as the Flam, Drag and Paradiddle form the basis of a wide range of rhthms in orchestral, drum-kit and marching percussion.
		They can still provide valuable practice to all percussionists, however, as they exercise different degrees of hand-independence and fine stick control.
		The Paradiddle in particular is very versatile, forming the basis of many popular music drum fills.

	One35th presents the 28cm K5(E) Eisenbahngeschutz - Ammunitions,Projectiles and Fuzes
		A new design of long -range shell was under development in 1944 by Krupp, It had a hollow tail section to give additional stabilization by drag and a high-efficiency driving band for use with the K 5 Vz gun.
		This, of the same dimensions as the AZ 35 K, used a Krupp clock and a graze percussion element.
		It was to contain 27.00 kg (59.54 lb.) of high explosive, and was to be fitted with a nose fuze beneath a ballistic cap.

	King Sunny Ade : Seven Degrees North - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect
		Though it has been almost 40 years since he began playing highlife and 30 years since he debuted his sounds for large American audiences, King Sunny Ade's Seven Degrees North does not drag.
		The most nimbly played track on the CD, "Ariya," begins with a series of synchronized punctuations, smoothly darts forward at an impressive pace, and then -- about half way through -- breaks down into an even more accelerated percussion jam that highlights a talking drum solo.
		As King Sunny Ade embodies good humor and unflagging desire to realize a brighter future for Nigeria and its people, the music from his 23 piece band overflows with a buoyant optimism that is indelibly energetic and celebratory.

	SignOnSanDiego.com > News > Features -- 'Soul to Soul' a labor of love for duo
		The DVD also includes interviews with McCann, Mavis Staples, North County resident Ike Turner, original Santana drummer Michael Shrieve, Obo Addy (whose percussion ensemble performed when "Soul to Soul's" performers deplaned in Ghana) and others, including Peck and Kanis.
		Some of the DVD interviews drag on and are marred by less-than-insightful questions.
		The film itself would benefit from a narration to set the scene and provide background information, a problem Peck partly remedies with an informative, 24-page booklet.

	Problems in Ballistics
		In 1842, the U.S. Army adopted the percussion lock for the Model 1842 Springfield Musket, replacing flintlock ignition in earlier shoulder arms.
		He proposed a model bullet, or “standard” bullet, on which comprehensive measurements of drag deceleration versus velocity could be made.
		Rifled muskets and handguns began to replace smoothbore military weapons in the mid-1850’s after a French Army officer, Capt. Claude Minie, developed a means to expand a bullet upon firing to cause it to fit the grooves of a rifled barrel.

	Ink 19 :: Royal Trux
		Spillout into the bar was inevitable, where thankfully, the somewhat muddy sound mix in the main room was given space to dissipate, and so the bass/percussion-heavy rock songs were revived by clearer fuzzy guitar and the dual vocal stylings of Jennifer and Neil.
		Opening with the two and three-minute songs that make up much of their latest Drag City release, Royal Trux kept rocking with minimal chatter, maximum time spent playing.
		The Royal Trux discography stretches far back, but the Sweet Sixteen cut "Morphic Resident" was one of the older cuts.

	Grupo Tuira adds to their lineup and repertoire
		Bonilla is schooled in a classical guitar style, which overlays one more dimension onto the eclectic Grupo Tuira, and on this night they had some pretty good percussion too.
		(For a band named after the Tuira River, the main drag in the Darien, one might expect some lewd pulsating jungle rhythms.
		But meanwhile, over at Taco’ntento on the Calle 42 club strip, the central conspirators of the Grupo Tuira --- Rómulo Castro, Luis Arteaga and Valeria Ovando ---- were at it again, and it had been announced that they’ve got a new guitarist (Luis Bonilla) and would be playing.
