Summary

Music is a very powerful thing. It can invoke a wide variety of emotions and moods. Particular songs we've heard might invoke memories of when we first heard them. However, there is some music that actually can server as a cultural shorthand. Not even full songs are necessary. Just a few notes can provide a very specific cultural reference. Learn more about representative riffs, what they are, and how they came to be on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
