Task Description: In team 5 this term’s inquiry, the topic was “Music from Around the World.” Every class had the exciting opportunity to become an expert on a different country or region, learning all about their unique musical styles and heritage. This week room two got the opportunity to head to room four, where we were researching all about music from Latin America. Throughout the past two days we have been learning about the type of rhythms and instruments we hear in Latin American music. What was so awesome was we even got to listen to the music and do these hand movements to the beats we heard. These beats were called ”Dembow Beat”. The Dembow beat is the core, unmistakable rhythm of Reggaeton music, known for its iconic, bouncing “boom-ch-boom-chick” pattern. We had to then create this dembow beat using virtual drums. After all of that we got to then find a song on YouTube and I found the perfect example of the Dembow beat in action. Doing this task was SO much fun, especially because I learnt so many new things about the music from Latin America. Remember to leave a positive comment on my blog, thank you.
