    Beginning the plot, fire always ascribed itself an image of both physical assistance and mental aid. The blazing campfires the dramatic duo of the boy and his father create offer warmth and an atmosphere of a sanguine tone, and is essentially what endorses the positivity in the characters.

    After presenting to the audience their first piece the choir moved on to sing “Hakuna Mungu Kama Wewe”. This is a sacred east African worship song that is written to be sung Acapella with SAB parts. The non-syncopated piece in the major mode gave a joyful feeling to the audience with its quick pace. Unlike their first piece the choirs voice seemed like one big sound without any breaks, they were in complete unison.…

    Dj Shadow Song Analysis

    • 898 Words
    • 4 Pages

    The two songs I am analyzing are by the same artist. The artist is DJ Shadow and the songs are entitled “Building Steam with a Grain of Salt” and “Midnight in a Perfect World.” These songs are from his first album “Endtroducing…,” which was written in 1996. Shadow’s music has been classified into a few different types of genres; trip-hop being the most prominent. What makes his first album so different is that it is composed entirely of samples. Shadow spent years and years “digging” and listening to thousands of old records to piece together his first album. He listened to each record with and open-mind; waiting for something to spark creativity. In 2001 “Endtroducing…” was published in the Guinness Book of World Records for being the “First Completely Sampled Album.” The only pieces of equipment that were used to produce this album included a 12-bit sampling drum machine and a pair of turntables. I have seen Shadow perform live a handful of times. His shows take place anywhere from small night clubs, to stadium style concerts.…
