05:44Are you ready to rock steady, Ramona?
05:47Yeah.
05:48Then let's break it down.
05:49Reggae music started when?
05:51The late 1960s.
05:53Where?
05:53Jamaica.
05:54By who?
05:55Well, Jamaicans.
05:56Makes sense.
05:57It developed from two earlier forms of Jamaican music, ska and rock steady.
06:02Yeah, ska was first and fast, like this.
06:06Then came rock steady, and it was like ska, but much slower, like this.
06:19After a while, musicians wanted to play something that was slower than ska, but faster than rock steady.
06:24So they created...
06:25Reggae!
06:27Yeah!
06:28And what instruments did they use to get that rock and reggae sound?
06:31A whole bunch.
06:33Guitar, bass, organ, horns...
06:36And lots of different drums and percussion, like snare drums, bongos, and conga drums, just to name a few.
06:42You'll get a chance to play with some of those instruments later.
06:44That's right.
06:45Now, Ramona, how do I know when I'm rocking to some sweet, sweet reggae?
06:49You'll hear a beat, like this.
06:54And then you'll hear guitar or piano accents on the beat that you don't expect.
06:59A beat called the offbeat.
07:01And it sounds a little something like this.

08:55The 1800s. Where? In the southern United States. By who? European immigrants and ex-slaves of West African descent. That's right. These southern settlers started mixing the folk music they brought with them from home. With the new experiences they were having in America. And they created... Country music! Yee-haw! And what instruments did they use to get that country sound? All kinds. Fiddle, dulcimer, mandolin, guitar, banjo.
09:22And percussion, like bass drums, snare drums, and cymbals.
09:26You'll get a chance to play with some of those instruments later.
09:29That's right. Now, Ramona, how do I know that I am listening to some sweet country music?

11:14Where?
11:14Cities all over the United States.
11:16New York, Memphis, Chicago, Detroit, Cleveland.
11:20By who?
11:20Musicians of all kinds.
11:22Blues musicians, jazz musicians, country musicians.
11:25That's right.
11:26These musicians started mixing elements of blues, jazz, country, and gospel together.
11:31They also had access to technology that was brand new at the time.
11:35Stuff like electric guitars, amplifiers, and microphones.
11:39And because lots of teenagers were looking for new kinds of exciting music,
11:42a new musical style was born.
11:45Rock and roll!
11:47Yeah!
11:49And what instruments did they use to get that rock and roll sound?
11:52Electric guitar, bass, piano, and saxophone were some of the most popular.
11:57And a drum kick, usually made up of a bass drum, snare drum, toms, a hi-hat, and cymbals!
12:03You'll get a chance to play with some of those instruments later.
12:06That's right!
12:07Now, Ramona, what was that early rock and roll sound?
12:10Well, musicians took a boogie-woogie rhythm, like this.
12:16And emphasized the backbeat, like this.
12:20You hear that?
12:21Then they layered on some instruments, like saxophone, bass, and guitar.
12:28Okay, here's the deal.
