"In the chorus from bar 25 we see a very common scale-based line of root G major"

But also "four pianists, some singers, a small chorus"
2012-04-05 09610, 2012

And "A chorus of approval"

SultS: "The British National Corpus (BNC) is a 100 million word collection of samples of written and spoken language from a wide range of sources, designed to represent a wide cross-section of current British English, both spoken and written"

it doesn’t make it clear though would people confuse the two, if we had both
They would certainly confuse it if we had only chorus
2012-04-05 09647, 2012
reosarevok
But having both should make it somewhat clear
2012-04-05 09608, 2012

(I think)
2012-04-05 09639, 2012

indeed
2012-04-05 09656, 2012
SultS
it would also help to know if they have the same (common?) meaning in american english as well
2012-04-05 09610, 2012
reosarevok
The problem is also that the translation is non-trivial
2012-04-05 09629, 2012
CatCat
yea in norwegian it'd be "kor" kor"
2012-04-05 09628, 2012
reosarevok
Also, what's exactly the other kind of "chorus" we want to store?
2012-04-05 09629, 2012
reosarevok
:)
2012-04-05 09630, 2012

woudl have to be "kor (synger kor)" "kor (synger i et kor)
2012-04-05 09651, 2012
reosarevok
Is it "chorus" as opposed to "verse"? (sings the part in the song that repeats)?
2012-04-05 09610, 2012
CatCat
whnever credit as "chourus" or "kor" liek "is singing chours

COCA has multiple uses for chorus as noun
2012-04-05 09650, 2012
reosarevok
Sure, I just want to know exactly what those credits reference (since most of the chorus credits I've seen are for choirs)
2012-04-05 09658, 2012

CatCat: do you have an example on youtube or whatever? :)

(about rap, hah: "Toasting, chatting, or deejaying is the act of talking or chanting, usually in a monotone melody, over a rhythm or beat by a deejay." vs. "Rapping (also known as emceeing,[1] MCing,[1] spitting (bars),[2] or rhyming[3]) refers to 'spoken or chanted rhyming lyrics' "

in the USA, it is pretty common to call all electronic music "techno"
2012-04-05 09600, 2012
derwin
was more common in the past, before marketing ppl invented "electronica" term
derwin, I am actally really surprised… but I do bet it has changed a bit in the few years, as trance and similar it much more known there now
2012-04-05 09618, 2012
derwin
but that's the thing, it was just the generic, like kleenex, back at the time before techno and trance split

"When two or more sections of the song have basically identical music and different lyrics, each section is considered one verse" vs. "The element of the song that repeats at least once both musically and lyrically"

(last being the chorus)

SultS for example to me "amphetamine" by drax is "techno"
2012-04-05 09655, 2012
derwin
becuase when I heard it it was "techno"
2012-04-05 09657, 2012
reosarevok
SultS: I'd bet most people in Spain don't know what trance is
2012-04-05 09604, 2012
derwin
and "trance" didn't really differentiate itself until like 1994
2012-04-05 09614, 2012
reosarevok
They'd either use "techno" or at most "electronic music"
2012-04-05 09618, 2012
derwin
so even though it sounds like trance, and is trancey
2012-04-05 09628, 2012
derwin
"techno"
2012-04-05 09647, 2012
derwin
in spain most electronic music *is* techno tho.
2012-04-05 09651, 2012

like, techno techno

reosarevok, it seems wikipedia differentiates verse-chorus from verse…

classic choon.

derwin: what I mean is that if I take my non-genre-savvy friends to a dubstep party, they'd probably call it "some techno party"
(lol, 60 loves and close to 500 plays? people are mad)
2012-04-05 09613, 2012
SultS
I’ll listen to that
2012-04-05 09646, 2012
reosarevok
It's a pretty standard early-00s reggaeton playlist
2012-04-05 09606, 2012
reosarevok
But I guess a lot of non-Hispanic people haven't heard any of it anyway, standard or not...
2012-04-05 09608, 2012

I have maybe listened to 1 reggeaton track before today, afaik :P the youtube one definetly sounded familiar though
2012-04-05 09657, 2012
reosarevok
Some people would argue if you have listened to one, all of them will sound familiar :p
2012-04-05 09602, 2012
SultS
also, that Drax track has definetly some trance in it
2012-04-05 09620, 2012
warp
that indeed sounds like reggaeton
2012-04-05 09602, 2012
reosarevok
(especially since a good amount of the tracks on that list are Luny Tunes productions, which are pretty much the standard definition of early 00s reggaeton)
2012-04-05 09637, 2012

reosarevok: people who say that probably wouldn't be able to distinguish different eurobeat songs at all.
2012-04-05 09641, 2012
reosarevok
warp: even I, who can distinguish these, admit having problems with eurobeat
2012-04-05 09650, 2012
reosarevok
(and with identifying them, too :P)
2012-04-05 09602, 2012
reosarevok
So yeah, probably right
2012-04-05 09613, 2012
warp
reosarevok: it's the same problem with euorbeat. a handful of failed italo-disco composers are responsible for the majority of it.
2012-04-05 09639, 2012
reosarevok
Yeah
2012-04-05 09651, 2012
reosarevok
I mean, all of these tracks come from a place with a population under 4 million, too
2012-04-05 09604, 2012
reosarevok
I guess there just aren't that many producers for it :p
2012-04-05 09632, 2012
reosarevok
Eurobeat doesn't have that excuse :p
2012-04-05 09613, 2012
reosarevok
(and once reggaeton became more prominent in South America it started mixing more with bachata, merengue, etc and becoming relatively different, to a point that a lot of old fans were like "this ain't my old reggaeton anymore, it's something else")
2012-04-05 09657, 2012

reosarevok: most eurobeat is afaik not created by japanese people.
SultS: well, they managed to write the flyer in broken Portuguese
2012-04-05 09600, 2012

Which is... kinda creepy

"Moombahton is a fusion genre of house music and reggaeton that was created by American DJ and producer Dave Nada[2] (born David Villeagas) in Washington, D.C., in the fall of 2010.[3] Musically, moombahton is essentially Dutch house or electro house at the tempo of reggaeton (usually 108- 112 beats per minute) with reggaeton influenced drum and percussion elements."
2012-04-05 09614, 2012

I am not surprised, as broken estonian is quite common here as well, since they are written by russians…
