Fill (música)
En la música popular, un fill es un pasaje musical de corta duración, o riff, que ayuda a mantener la atención de el oyente durante el corte de la musica, o durante un ascenso o descenso melódico.
El fill puede variar , en estilo, longitud, y dinámica. La mayoría de los fill son simples estructuras, y de corta duración. El fill en cada genero de música popular, tiene sus propias características.
Un breve intervalo en la música--a lick that 'fills in the gaps' of the music and/or signals the end of a phrase. Es como un mini-solo.
Scott Schroedl[1]Un fill puede ser interpretado por instrumentos utilizados en música de rock o pop, como guitarras electricas, bajos, organos, o baterías. or by other instruments such as strings or horns
En el blues o en temas cantados al estilo swing, un fill puede incluso ser cantado. En la música hip-hop el fill puede consistir en ritmos producidos por un DJ.
"Fills can vary as to style, length, and dynamics...[though] most fills are simple in structure and short in duration"[2] Each type of popular music such as funk, country, and metal has characteristic fill passages, such as short scalar licks, runs, or riffs. Musicians are expected to be able to select and perform stylistically appropriate fills from a collection of stock fills and phrases. "Although it is a small break in the pattern, the tempo is not changed at all, and in most instances the time-keeping pattern is resumed immediately after the fill...An important point to remember is that the flow of the music should not be sacrificed to the technicality of the fill."[2]

Tradición e improvisación
In some styles, such as jazz or jazz fusion, musicians have more freedom to improvise fill passages each time a piece or songs is performed. In other styles, such as bluegrass, performers are more likely to use standard "walkup" or "walkdown" scalar passages as fills in every song. Some groups use previously composed fills as part of the identity of a song. The Eagles, for example, play the same fills each time they perform the same song.
Comparación con técnicas similares
Fills are distinguished from solo breaks, which are short, often unaccompanied solo passages interpolated between sections of a song. Whereas fills are relatively unobtrusive, solo breaks such as bass runs are usually composed to draw attention to the soloist's virtuoso skills by using difficult techniques and rapid passages.
Fill passages are also distinguished from "lead" passages, in which a musical instrument becomes a melodic substitute for the singer for a substantial period, and from solos such as guitar solos.
