摘要

先前的一项研究表明，在嘻哈音乐中，“明亮”元音（即具有较高第二共振峰的前元音）更适合作为节拍词。在这里，我们在《滚石》语料库中的流行歌曲样本中部分复制了这些发现。重音单音节根据元音的发音位置和音标位置进行分类。亮元音在弱（但不强）拍子和周围的公制位置上的可能性比其他公制位置高出9-13%。在弱节拍上和周围喜欢明亮的元音可能会减轻小鼓的掩蔽作用，小鼓通常在弱节拍下演奏。

Bright vowels are favoured on weak beats in popular music lyrics

A previous study showed that ‘bright’ vowels (i.e. front vowels, which have higher second formants) are favoured for on-beat words in hip-hop music. Here we partially replicated these findings in a more diverse sample of pop songs from the Rolling Stone Corpus. Stressed monosyllables were classified by their vowel’s place of articulation and their metric position. Bright vowels were 9–13% more likely on weak (but not strong) beats and metric positions immediately surrounding than other metric positions. Favouring bright vowels on and surrounding weak beats may mitigate masking by the snare drum, which typically plays on weak beats.

期刊介绍： The Journal of New Music Research (JNMR) publishes material which increases our understanding of music and musical processes by systematic, scientific and technological means. Research published in the journal is innovative, empirically grounded and often, but not exclusively, uses quantitative methods. Articles are both musically relevant and scientifically rigorous, giving full technical details. No bounds are placed on the music or musical behaviours at issue: popular music, music of diverse cultures and the canon of western classical music are all within the Journal’s scope. Articles deal with theory, analysis, composition, performance, uses of music, instruments and other music technologies. The Journal was founded in 1972 with the original title Interface to reflect its interdisciplinary nature, drawing on musicology (including music theory), computer science, psychology, acoustics, philosophy, and other disciplines.
