    THE ALLNITERS Will Always Be Remembered for Their Big Sound, Cracking Tunes and Eccentric Exuberance

    THE ALLNITERS will always be remembered for their big sound, cracking tunes and eccentric exuberance. Mischievous and a little bit cheeky, they’re the most successful ska act in Australian history and they’re back: bigger, bolder and brassier than ever after over 30 years, proving once and for all that THE ALLNITERS are Allriters … and evidently ska’d for life. It all began back in 1980 when a group of eight lads and one rude girl gravitated towards charismatic founding member Marty Fabok as the inner-city mod scene was percolating. They nattered, laughed and riffled through their favourite reggae, blues; disco, Jamaican blue beat and rock steady vinyl collections. Jaunty brass and tight rhythm sections were forged and THE ALLNITERS had officially arrived, donning their porkpie hats, braces and Doc Martens and chomping at the bit to burn up the live circuit with upbeat rhythms, walking bass-lines and contagious jocularity. The band cut its teeth as a live act at Sydney’s legendary Sussex Hotel and went on to become one of the hardest touring acts in the country. Attendance records were broken, as were stages, with audience members sometimes storming the stage to out-number the band, egged on by those spilling out the doors, thus threatening structural collapse. Regardless, THE ALLNITERS never failed to amuse, with hysterical, quick-witted onstage banter between vocalists Peter Travis and Brett Pattinson rivaling that of The Two Ronnie’s. The band rapidly became as renowned for their energetic sense of playfulness as for their larger than life new wave sound.

    Basslines 6: Roots, Dancehall, and Karaoke Column in zweikommasieben Magazin #15, 2017 (www.zweikommasieben.ch ) Annotated version with sound and text references Text: Marius ‚Comfortnoise‘ Neukom ( www.comfortnoise.com ) With his 2000 book Bass Culture: When Reggae was King , Lloyd Bradley presented the most comprehensive, varied, and entertaining history of reggae to date. In its last section, however, the book takes a surprising turn – Bradley argued that the history of reggae came to an end in the mid-80s, and left was without any notable offshoots. This is an astonishing thesis, especially coming from an author like him. What were the arguments behind it, and what kind of light do the fifteen+ years since the book’s pub- lication shed on its legitimacy? In the early 1970s, after ska and rocksteady 1, Jamaica found in reggae a style that was distinctive in both musical profile and content. It was a style that would go on to influ- ence the identity of a generation and that was characterized by the social and political 1 The origins lie in the boom of the still colonial Jamaica of the 50s, when first sound systems (loud- speakers placed under free sky) were playing mento, calypso, r&b, jazz and soul. At the end of the 50s in the ghettos of Kingston, ska (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ska ) emerged: a mixture of the aforementioned music styles that became the first genuine Jamaican genre. With the high pace of ska, its emphasis on the rhythm and by broaching the issue of everyday life in the ghetto, the first gangsters entered the stage.

Lobo-Gilbert CSU Monterey Bay MPA Recording Technology Spring 2014 THE SWELL AND CRASH OF SKA’S FIRST WAVE: A HISTORICAL ANALYSIS OF REGGAE'S PREDECESSORS IN THE EVOLUTION OF JAMAICAN MUSIC INTRODUCTION Ska music has always been a truly extraordinary genre. With a unique musical construct, the genre carries with it a deeply cultural, sociological, and historical livelihood which, unlike any other style, has adapted and changed through three clearly-defined regional and stylistic reigns of prominence. The music its self may have changed throughout the three “waves,” but its meaning, its message, and its themes have transcended its creation and two revivals with an unmatched adaptiveness to thrive in wildly varying regional and sociocultural climates.
  • Jamaican Dancehall in the 21St Century

    Jamaican Dancehall in the 21St Century

    Pon de Dancefloor: Jamaican Dancehall in the 21st Century Stephanie R. Espie University of Delaware [email protected] Abstract The history of Jamaican music includes Roots, Mento, Ska, Rocksteady and Reggae styles - setting the stage for the origination of the Dancehall genre in the early 1980s. While a wide range of ethnographic literature has been published on these musical foundations, few publications exist on the evolution of Dancehall in Jamaica. Dancehall has expanded in the past 10-15 years due to increasing effects of collaboration between American and Jamaican artists and DJs along with the ease of musical transmission through technology. In this ethnographic research, I have studied the evolution of Dancehall to create a portrayal of musical trends leading to the predominance of Dancehall in Jamaica. I collected data over 10 days of fieldwork in Portland, Jamaica in June of 2015. The music played by four club DJs was chosen as the focus of study because of its influence on Portland’s musical culture. Data consisted of observational field notes and 10 hours of audio recordings of local DJs in club settings. Audio recordings were analyzed for traditional beats, song length, production year, language choice, and added effects. Field notes were used as a secondary source to confirm/disconfirm the emerging musical themes from across these DJs. Findings have been compared to the existing literature to create an updated trajectory of musical trends within Dancehall. Along with contributions to the field of ethnomusicology, this research can be used in music education in informal music learning on a domestic and international level.
