What is a "riff"?
A riff is a short, memorable sequence of notes or chords that is repeated throughout a piece of music. It is often used in genres like rock, jazz, and funk to create a catchy or recognizable musical hook. Riffs can be melodic or rhythmic and help to establish the groove or character of a song. They are typically played by instruments like guitars or keyboards and can serve as a foundation for the rest of the music.
