American Reggae
Particularly distinctive feature that I can learn Rastaman is a hairstyle. Their hairstyle consists of a set in a special braided dreadlocks, which symbolize proximity to the higher powers and to the universe. Reggae music is different as some similarities in motifs and distinctive features that are in each of the tracks. By and large, each of them represents a separate fragment of a large integer, called the motion rastomanov. Music originated in Jamaica, where life flows slowly and each day is not much different from the previous one. All of these vital nuances embodied in music. She slowly, but at the same time, it is sufficient energy and life, so reggae music does not seem sad. Reggie has been in existence for over 40 years, but nevertheless the general direction and general style of music have not changed.
In music added some new tools and texts have become more sophisticated, but nevertheless all the music remained the same light and unassuming as it was originally. In practice rastafarianstva marijuana used as a sacrament, people believe that it pulls people closer to God. Therefore, hashish (which in Jamaican slang called 'Ganja') has a marked effect on the lyrics of reggae. Unfortunately, over the past few decades of American teenagers have perverted this sacred ritual, and use it only as an excuse for smoking marijuana.

In the Jamaican music industry, even a tradition to fill the reverse side plates instrumental versions of songs presented on side A, and paint their creative influence of hashish. And such directors record as Lee Perry and more specifically began to turn all the buttons in a row, achieving distortion, reducing it to a soprano or picking up the bass, cutting the vocal track and adding a lot of reverb. No other music does not create more such "Stoned" ways.
