Phrasing

Count to eight while clapping. When you reach eight, start again in a different way. Music is built in patterns just like this! Remix Remy likes to think phrases are puzzle pieces and uses them to build something new, it's fun!

Looping

Pick a short rhythm: clap, clap, pause. Repeat it again and again. That’s a loop! Sampler Sam uses loops to keep the music going when he isn't ready for the song to end yet. Thanks Sampler Sam!
