Tapetatapetatapeta... This is a form of background music designed to increase anticipation for whatever The Reveal is. (BOOM!) Happens both in Real Life and in audiovisual media. Less common than it used to be: Some rock stars abused drum roll privileges with their ten-minute drum solos, and not every drum machine can pull off a drum roll. Instead, producers use the visual equivalent, cutting every two seconds (or is that two frames?). But true drum rolls still get used, especially by shows wanting to evoke nostalgia, and have the advantage of not causing epileptic seizures. Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Drum rolls are frequently the subject of, or the announcement for, parody these days. One popular parody is to literally roll a drum across the stage. Compare Fanfare, Rimshot, Dramatic Timpani. Examples: |

In National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation, Clark has the whole family come out into the front yard to watch him plug in/turn on the outdoor Christmas lights he put up, and asks for a drum roll. He has to ask again before his wife gets the idea and leads the others in a silly prolonged a capella drum roll with an actual drum roll for background music. Clark joins in before finally plugging in the cords... and nothing happens. The background noise switches to that of a cymbal falling over. | |
