 In this blog I will be talking about Indian folk music. The folk Indian music is vastly diverse because of Indias culture diversity. In India there is a vastly amount of folk music. One of the folk music is baul music this type of folk music represents the long lasting heritage of worship. Baul Sangeet is a type of music where they can say their feelings in a song but never having written records of the songs they sing. A type of Baul folk music in the west is the Bhataili or Bhatiyali .   This is a type of music where fisherman mainly sing the songs along the rivers of India. The word Bhatiyali comes from the word ebb or downstream.  One of the instruments that is used in the western baul is the ektara. This instrument is very common for a Baul singer. This instrument is one string instrument that makes such a beautiful sound. The way to use this instrument is to have it up right where you grip the neck just above the resonator while you pluck the string with your ...

 For this blog post I decided to do rock and roll. I listen to machine gun Kelly and I am not exactly sure what genre that would go under but maybe like rock. This genre originated in the United States.  the typical instruments that make up rock is and electric guitar and electric drum. When I think of rock and roll I think of hard core instruments. When I learn a specific topic I always want to know what the first is. in this case I wanted to learn what the first ever rock and roll song was . The first ever rock and roll song was rocket 88 written by Ike turner.  Rock and roll started by at the time of the Great Migration. Africans were brought to the cities near the north when soon they would make would start making music. As more shows were being performed and the crowd grew and grew. The person who started rock and roll was Chucky Berry,  people claimed that he was the one who started it because he had all of the elements together that fit the category of ro...

For this blog I chose to do my mom. My mom was born in the mid 1960”s so that is when all the good songs were out. I asked my mom what was her first memory of music? She said “My first memory of music is almost hard to believe but I have a memory of me standing in my crib around age 1 1/2 and a single of Barbara Ann by The Beach Boys playing on a small record player on a dresser.” i found that really fascinating to hear that from my mom to learn something from her. The next question I asked her was What was your first experience with music? She said “My little xylophone “. I never thought to ask my mom that question and it was an interesting thing to learn. I asked her next How did music impact your childhood? She said that music was everywhere in my childhood.  My parents were divorced when I was 3 and if I heard a song while I was with my dad, which was pretty much a given, I would relive that memory of us when I heard the song again when we were apart. When my mom was young she ...

The first instrument that I researched was the drums. The drums is Africas main instrument that plays.  I also enjoy playing the drums for fun or just simply listening to the drums .  I personally feel like that the drums Is what makes a song a song and it makes the listener be engaged. In the African culture they have multiple instruments to percussion the one that stood out to me the most was djembe this instrument I see very commonly in any music video or of showing culture. When I went to this around the world thing for church. There was different people from across the world and they were using that exact instrument it is always interesting to watch instruments being played beautifully. This instrument I guess could be common because it is easy to use so any age you can use it. This is not also admiring of how children of that culture can use it but of how mesmerizing it sounds. Another interesting instrument is one of the instruments that has been around the longest. Thi...

 The first thing that I would like to point out is the Mother Earth song. I love how the flow of the song is and the one person singing. It is so peaceful and the beat is continuous.Listening to Native American music gives me peace and earth nature vibes where I can just relax. The song that sounds really good to me is ly o lay ale loya this is a circle chant. the meaning behind it is very meaningful. The songs meaning has a combination of navajo chants the meaning is basically to have guidance and to be strong inside within.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9UglUjiJifA one thing I would learn is how to dance the way the native Americans do I would love to feel the passion and the way of the music. I would also love to learn the way Native American language . In the video Mother Earth the words just sound so divine and peaceful. Being Native American this has shown me on different levels how it is to be a Native American.  watch  this sounds so pretty and makes me fe...
