agreed, a noble idea. BUT, i think using a forum as a catalog of album bpms would be messy and difficult to search through (considering the weaknesses of the search feature). perhaps you should start a google doc, or something people could be linked to and edit? Like Trev though, I would probably ju...

Re: Educating about swing rhythms and schemes?
do you expect the dancers to dance to the melody or the rhythm section? i'm not being facetious, though perhaps i am being socratic. good question. My first reaction would be to follow the rhythm section. Melodies can fit within rhythmic patterns or numbers of beats/measures. Dancing to the melody ...
