Meter Classification
Meter can be categorized as simple, compound, or complex. These three categories can explain all rhythmic patterns in Western music. Each of the categories of meter is defined by the subdivision of beats. The number of beats per measure determine the term associated with that meter.
2) polyrhythm, also called Cross-rhythm, the simultaneous combination of contrasting rhythms in a musical composition. Rhythmic conflicts, or cross-rhythms, may occur within a single metre (e.g., two eighth notes against triplet eighths) or may be reinforced by simultaneous combinations of conflicting metres.
Another option:
Typically, two rhythms will only be considered a polyrhythm if they have no common divisor other than 1. In the case of a 3:2 or 2:3 polyrhythm, there is no number (besides 1) that will divide into both 2 and 3.
3) A polymeter is two or more meters happening at the same time. These meters share a common subdivision, so in essence, a polymeter is different groupings of the same note values being played alongside one another.
Another option:
A polymeter is where two sequences are played using different meters, but with the same tempo. For example a pattern that repeats a sequence over 5/4 played against one repeating over 4/4 (figure 3). After 20 pulses the original patterns will repeat again (the lowest common denominator of two time signatures).
4)
•Sequencing drums.
•Recording vocals and instruments.
•Chord progressions and writing melodies.
•Applying effects.
Another option:
Electronic music can be characterized as a genre of music created and produced by using electronic and electromechanical music instruments, various digital instruments or so-called circuitry-based music technology.
5)
: a harmonic structure that characteristically introduces two or more simultaneous musical harmonies or strata of harmony.
