title: "Chromeo"
description: "The opening groove in the song Frequent Flier by the band Chromeo is
something that immediately caught my attention, and became the motive that
starts this percussion duo. This rhythm, melodic in quality when voiced
out on multiple drums, is prevalent throughout the piece. It is traded
between players individually, in addition to being realized as a composite
theme when broken up and hocketed between parts. A new voice is introduced
at the end with desk bells, which to me, gives it a bright, glowing
character in the fade-out, as if you are riding into the sunset of the
Great Plains."
