Aural Topographies:Research

Before I started this project, I chose a song by Damian Marley named Affairs of the Hearts. The lyrics and riddim that creates this song is outstanding.I would label it as a song of variety because of the different combination of instruments used to create the riddim. As the song starts the brass instrument is used repeatedly on a pattern. Then once the lyrics begins the drums are played on a separate pattern together with the brass instrument. More in the middle ending of the song, the electric guitar has a solo part which gives the song a better feeling.

My line network is demonstrated mostly in pattern form. Pattern form from the  brass instrument and drums.The brass instrument gives a line of waves like a loud ocean but smooth and the drums are sharp keeping the beat.The two instruments makes harmony together.The electric guitar is a solo piece which is alone on its own rough path giving feeling as I said before. My line of network is from what I hear and what I hear I draw.
