Venet-Chromeo (SP)-P - Product Information
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.
