Centre for Digital Music London, UK Queen Mary University of London [email protected] London, UK [email protected] ABSTRACT 1 INTRODUCTION Music producers nowadays rely on increasingly large libraries of Since the early days of Music Information Retrieval (MIR) as a loops, samples and virtual instrument sounds as part of the compo- research field, one significant topic of research has been inthein- sition process. Intelligent interfaces are therefore useful in enabling telligent visual organization of music data as a means of managing navigation of these databases in a way that supports the production and understanding the increasingly large quantities of data arising workflow. Within virtual drumming software, producers typically from advances in music content digitization [1]. Within digital au- rely on large libraries of symbolic drum loops. Due to their large dio workstation (DAW)-based music production environments, the size, navigating and exploring these libraries can be a difficult pro- searching and mining of music databases for production content cess. To address this, preliminary work is presented into the Groove is a common task. Producers frequently make use of assembled Explorer. Using Self-Organizing Maps, a large library of symbolic libraries of various different types of data, such as samples, loops, drum loops is automatically mapped on a 2D space according to synthesizer presents and virtual instruments. -

They consist of a single head in a die-cast zinc or aluminum frame. Unlike most other drums, they have a variable definite pitch. Composers are known to write for them as tuned instruments, demanding specific pitches. Rototoms are often used to extend the tom range of a standard drum kit. They were invented by the drumhead company Remo. They can be tuned quickly by rotating the head, which sits in a threaded metal ring. Rotation raises or lowers the tension hoop relative to the rim, which increases or decreases the pitch of the drum by increasing or decreasing the tension of the drum head. Master James Holland, former percussionist of the London Philharmonic Orchestra, highly recommends them in his book "Percussion",[1] which is part of the Yehudi Menuhin Music Guides series. Rototoms are often used as a training substitute for timpani students, as they have a very similar sound, are not as loud and expensive as timpani, and do not require as much room space. A few drumming greats who used rototoms were Bill Bruford and Terry Bozzio. Roger Taylor of Duran Duran used rototoms extensively on their self titled debut album Duran Duran of 1981. Roger Taylor of Queen has used rototoms since the early 1970s most recently in the cover of "Let There Be Drums" on the Return of the Champions DVD and album. -

Defining the Role of Drumset Performance in Contemporary Music
Defining the Role of Drumset Performance in Contemporary Music Benjamin N. Reimer Schulich School of Music McGill University Montreal, Quebec December, 2013 A doctoral paper submitted to McGill University in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Music in Performance Studies © Benjamin N. Reimer 2013 Abstract Traditionally considered an instrument used primarily for improvisation in popular music, the drumset has emerged in contemporary music as a solo instrument with prescribed notation. While there is a growing interest in this repertoire today, composers have drawn inspiration from the drumset since the early developmental stages of the instrument itself in the early twentieth century. In the context of popular music, generations of drummers have explored new musical and technical possibilities of drumset performance. It is this history that remains linked to the drumset even when crossing over into the context of contemporary composition. Drummers in popular music have influenced the musical content, the approach to performance, and even our preconceived ideas of the musical and technical potential of this instrument when it is used in contemporary art music. This thesis presents four unique approaches to composition identified and defined as the Tourist, the Snapshot, the Non-idiomatic and the Confluent. Although many works are discussed, the chapters focus on Darius Milhaud’s La Création du Monde, Christopher Rouse’s Bonham, James Dillon’s Ti.Re.Ti.Ke.Dha and Nicole Lizée’s The Man with the Golden Arms. The purpose is to highlight new performance techniques and musical possibilities for drumset performance used in contemporary art music, while identifying the composed repertoire’s links to traditional and fundamental drumset practices. -

Octobans have 15 cm (6 inch) diameter drum shells, and range in length from 280 millimeters (11 inches) to 600 millimeters (23-1/2 inches). The different lengths of the cylinders are what give each drum its distinct tone.[1] History Homemade octobans Octobans are a brand of drums introduced by Tama drums in 1978 and have become a genericized trademark used to refer to such sets of smaller diameter tube drums.[2] Other companies like Pearl and ddrum manufacture similar drums today under brand names like "Quarter Toms" and "Deccabons." [3] Octoban drum shells from other manufacturers may be of varying lengths and diameters, and made from materials like fiberglass, acrylic, aluminum, and wood. Some people build their own octobans out of PVC.[4] The boobam is probably an ancestor of the modern Octobans.
