BEATMAKERS PARTY FIXERS VISUAL NIGHTCLUB STAGE ACTS OWNERS Today, music is trending towards a post-genre environment, meaning that the strict categories of the past are quickly blurring. The pervasiveness of readily available streaming services like Spotify, Rdio and Soundcloud, music discovery platforms like Shazam, digital retailers like iTunes and Beatport, and the subsequent portability of music is creating opportunities for sounds and styles to be fused, borrowed and played with, by anyone, more easily than ever before. Those who grew up on hip-hop, rock, pop, and electronic can borrow at will from the diverse array of sounds at their disposal. Musicians who effortlessly blend influences from Electronic to Rock to Hip Hop, like FKA Twigs or Jamie XX, or groups like Bob Moses that combine live vocals and instrumentation with electronic-leaning production methods are coming to the fore. The impact of this portable sound and mixing of genres on the nightlife landscape at large is also seen in the diversity of locations in which artists are comfortable playing. Performers who are equally at home on a small rooftop MUSIC party in Brooklyn as they are on a stage at Mysteryland Festival in front of tens of thousands of people.

    IN FOCUS: Modes of Black Liquidity: Music Video as Black Art The Unruly Archives of Black Music Videos by ALESSANDRA RAENGO and LAUREN MCLEOD CRAMER, editors idway through Kahlil Joseph’s short fi lm Music Is My Mis- tress (2017), the cellist and singer Kelsey Lu turns to Ishmael Butler, a rapper and member of the hip-hop duo Shabazz Palaces, to ask a question. The dialogue is inaudible, but an intertitle appears on screen: “HER: Who is your favorite fi lm- Mmaker?” “HIM: Miles Davis.” This moment of Black audiovisual appreciation anticipates a conversation between Black popular cul- ture scholars Uri McMillan and Mark Anthony Neal that inspires the subtitle for this In Focus dossier: “Music Video as Black Art.”1 McMillan and Neal interpret the complexity of contemporary Black music video production as a “return” to its status as “art”— and specifi cally as Black art—that self-consciously uses visual and sonic citations from various realms of Black expressive culture in- cluding the visual and performing arts, fashion, design, and, obvi- ously, the rich history of Black music and Black music production. McMillan and Neal implicitly refer to an earlier, more recogniz- able moment in Black music video history, the mid-1990s and early 2000s, when Hype Williams defi ned music video aesthetics as one of the single most important innovators of the form. Although it is rarely addressed in the literature on music videos, the glare of the prolifi c fi lmmaker’s infl uence extends beyond his signature lumi- nous visual style; Williams distinguished the Black music video as a creative laboratory for a new generation of artists such as Arthur Jafa, Kahlil Joseph, Bradford Young, and Jenn Nkiru.

    The Acoustics and Performance of DJ Scratching. Analysis and Modelling

There has been experimental use of turntables as musical instruments since their invention, but the use is now mainly ascribed to the musical genre hip-hop and the playing style known as scratching. Scratching has developed to become a skillful instrument-playing practice with complex musical output performed by DJs. The impact on popular music culture has been significant, and for many, the DJ set-up of turntables and a mixer is now a natural instru- ment choice for undertaking a creative music activity. Six papers are included in this thesis, where the first three approach the acoustics and performance of scratching, and the second three approach scratch modeling and the DJ interface. Additional studies included here expand on the scope of the papers. For the acoustics and performance studies, DJs were recorded playing both demonstrations of standard performance techniques, and expressive perfor- mances on sensor-equipped instruments.

    Women and Electronic/ Dance Music

    Producing Producers: Women and Electronic/ Dance Music Rebekah Farrugia and Thorn Swiss At the time of our meeting, Ashley lived in San Francisco's famous Haight­ Ashbury district now overrun with chain stores such as The Gap and Ben and Jerry's. She lived in a large Victorian house with six roommates, which is fairly typical of twenty-something artists in this city. We walked down a long hallway, through the kitchen and down the stairs to the basement where all her belongings, including the technology she used to make electronic music, were stored in the single room she called home. Inspirational messages­ some cut out of magazines and newspapers, others hand-written-adorned the walls, giving some order to the disheveled space. For the next few hours we lounged on a futon on the floor while Ashley related stories about what it was like to be a young woman with few connections to San Francisco's electronic/dance music scene while nevertheless trying to create music and have it heard. There was an experience from a live performance. she had recently given that she wanted to talk about: I was setting up my equipment and I disappeared for a minute. The band had taken my power strip and started plugging their stuff into it. The sound guy took it and gave it to the band, but I was going on before the band. [It] threw off my whole vibe. I'm a firm believer in making friends with the sound guy' cause they make you or break you. Having the power strip stolen was a huge symbol of disrespect to me 'cause if I was a guy, and I hate saying this, I hate bringing in this if-I-was-a-guy statement, but it's true.

    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Acting Real: Mimesis and Media in Performance A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Theater and Performance Studies by Lindsay Brandon Hunter 2013 © Copyright by Lindsay Brandon Hunter 2013 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Acting Real: Mimesis and Media in Performance by Lindsay Brandon Hunter Doctor of Philosophy in Theater and Performance Studies University of California, Los Angeles, 2013 Professor Sue-Ellen Case, Chair Theater, historically, has served as a site for intense debates about ontology, specifically as concerns distinctions between what is real, in Plato’s sense, and what is “merely” mimetic. Similar ontological debates have attended the development of new media technologies, which are often figured as enabling shady activities like impersonation, simulation, and piracy (on the internet, after all, no one knows you’re a dog, and Photoshopped images of Iranian missile tests circulate globally nearly instantly), and arousing related questions about authenticity, identity and ownership. My dissertation brings debates about realness and mimesis to three sites of twenty-first century performance: intermedial theater, specifically the Wooster Group’s 2007 Hamlet and the mediatized Burton/Gielgud Hamlet it deconstructs; reality television, specifically MTV’s “scripted reality” show The Hills; and alternate reality gaming, in particular the 2007 future forecasting game World Without Oil. In each of these sites I examine the ways ii mediatization and theatricality work, sometimes in concert and sometimes in conflict, to complicate and perform realness. Questions of realness, authenticity and honesty have long haunted Western theater traditions, and so I use the lens of Western theatrical acting to address related questions in new media performance contexts.

It has now gotten to the point to where even mainstream artists incorporate and collaborate this electronic style into their own. “EDM” is no longer the correct term to describe this genre because it has now become an industry within itself. These “raves,” are shows that DJs play that are generally some variation of electronic music to create seamless selections of tracks, called a mix or set by transitioning from one track to another. However, EDM has grown far surpass just raves. Music festivals all over the world headline EDM artists. The demand for EDM has taken over commercial music, thus increasing the demand for more EDM events. Since 2016 was a big year for electronic music, it has led people to apply more scrutiny to the culture surrounding electronic music. A hot topic when looking at the entertainment industry is always the use of drugs.
