Reggae Skank
Ooh yeah mon - my man on the street wiff da beat Riaan Lion of Zion has sent me dis message
"From Wikipedia: The guitar in reggae usually plays the chords on beats two and four, a musical figure known as skank or the 'bang'. It has a very dampened, short and scratchy chop sound, almost like a percussion instrument. Sometimes a double chop is used when the guitar still plays the off beats, but also plays the following 8th beats on the up-stroke. So let's hear ye all skank, mon! Reggae time!"
So don't you tarry my brothers and sisters, have your chops ready for me by Friday Morning Jamaica standard time (or Monday noon GMT)
