mjoakes Posted July 8, 2018 Share Posted July 8, 2018 The Madison thread is full of dichotomy thinking: must be traditional or modern, no in between. I think that's poor critical thinking. Here is reigning champion BD hanging out and playing a killer Natural Woman with great screamers almost as though they lifted the idea from 1970s MacArthur Park. With a bit of vision, there's just no reason Madison shouldn't find a way to fit into this era of drum corps. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluesman Posted July 8, 2018 Share Posted July 8, 2018 You Make Me Feel Like a Natural Woman is just another incredible Blue Devils arrangement. It rivals 1992's When a Man Loves a Woman. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N.E. Brigand Posted July 8, 2018 Share Posted July 8, 2018 Just now, drummer5485 said: Yes they did, but that was more the "battery" speak we drummers use a lot, Konnokal is actual syllabic rhythms in indian music. A fair point, but I still think anything rhythmic done by a corps should be done live by the performers. I mean, he looks overage to me. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tedrick Posted July 8, 2018 Share Posted July 8, 2018 So the audio feed from flo is just plain goofy -- sounds much better in person.... Not sure if they can do anything about it.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NakedEye Posted July 8, 2018 Share Posted July 8, 2018 I feel like BD really stepped it up over the last performance. The show is starting to have much more clarity and I find it extremely engaging. For most of the show, their pacing is exceptional. The “Natural Woman” hints superimposed over the fight have a similar effect to an emotional ballad or other contrasting musical moment juxtaposed with an action scene in a movie. It’s a good effect. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
