Wargasm

WARGASM (which stands for War Ground Air Special Missions) is a 3D real-time strategy game developed by Digital Image Design and published by Infogrames in 1998 for the Windows PC platform. The game uses the 3Dream engine to process populated and varied battlefields, as well as relatively advanced graphical elements for its time of release. Acting as the commander of an army, the player of Wargasm was able to direct the actions of AI friendly units via a simple control interface on a 2D overhead map, and if desired could jump his or her perspective to, and take direct control of any allied unit in the 3D real-time environment.

Playable characters available to the player were; a regular infantryman, or a special forces soldier driving either a tank, an armored personnel carrier (APC) or a helicopter. The in-battle event of airstrikes were carried out by ground attack aircraft and stealth bombers, but could not be controlled by the player.

The game was accompanied by an entirely classical soundtrack. Notable examples of featured musical pieces are Ludwig van Beethoven's Symphony No. 7 and Gustav Mahler's Symphony No. 3. The first movement of the latter is also used as the main theme of Wargasm and heard in the game's main menu.

Drop (music)

A drop in popular music, especially electronic music styles, is a point in a music track where a switch of rhythm or bass line occurs and usually follows a recognizable build section and break.

The term "drop" comes from the composer or producer "dropping in" the primary rhythmic and foundational elements previously hinted at into the mix more or less at once. Related terms, typically describing certain types of drops, include "beat-up" (so named because it is a point where the producer brings up the foundational kick drum beat after having faded it down during a break or buildup) and "climax" (typically describing a single particularly striking drop heard late in the track).

Types

Many genres of EDM can have more than one drop during a track, especially if the song is built on a "dance-pop" verse/chorus with vocals; a drop of some kind is typically heard somewhere during each chorus as the high point of that verse/chorus cycle. Most genres, however, tend to emphasize a single drop as the beginning of the high point, or climax, of the entire track; in vocal subgenres this is typically the last repetition of the chorus, while in nonvocal genres it typically occurs in the last quarter of the track.
