There are only 12 notes in Western Music. This video shows how many pop hits can come out of just one Four Chord Progression. Apparently, quite a few. This video was created by the Axis of Awesome, and they’re worth checking out. You can support them (and get some cool swag) here.

We’ve taken a seven month sabbatical from blogging, and now we’re back, with the new and improved State of Mind of the Arts Blog! To celebrate our return, we have something special for you.

Here is a video about what may be the most important drum break in the histroy of music, and at the very least, equally as important as Funky Drummer.

While the Winston Brothers may not be a household name, the Amen Break has entered pop culture history.

Enjoy!
