The document discusses how the musical group STOMP! uses layering and texture to provide variety and structure in their music. It describes how one of their songs begins with a slow, simple beat that is abruptly cut off and replaced by a faster, louder beat accompanied by occasional bass notes and higher pitched notes played on different types of metals. As the song progresses, different sounds are layered on top of each other before returning to a slow, familiar beat similar to the opening, creating symmetry and linking the beginning and end through repetition while only using metal scaffolding instruments.

How layering and texture is used to give variety and structure to
STOMP!’s work- At first there’s a slower simple beat which is quickly cut off by a very out there “in your face” beat, During this “in your face” beat they have a few loud occasional bass notes split apart with a more frequent higher charmy note and some more different notes which are both faster and in more of a mid-pitch to that of the two others, Which would be a different type or shape of metal they’re hitting to get a different pitch. But bringing in that symmetry again as it gets further they all jump at the same time to ensure that the rest is at the same place before continuing with different sounds layered on-top of each other. And it ends back on a similar simple slow beat to how it started, ending on this familiar beat increases how the listener hears the similarity both to the start and end of the song, but also the obvious fact that they’re only using metal on scaffolding.
