The Dub Issue 24 May 2018
1 BJ aka Ras Brother John Rest In Power 26 May 1960 - 28 March 2018 2 Editorial Dub Front cover – Heritage HiFi, built and restored by Dr Huxtable of Axis Sound System Dear Reader, Welcome to issue 24 for the month of Simeon. This month has been one of meeting many people, renewing old friendships and sadly saying goodbye to some no longer with us. The Dub this month is packed like never before. We have in depth interviews with Earl 16 and Zion Train’s Neil Perch, live reviews of Reading Dub Club and African Head Charge, coverage of April’s Reggae Innovations Conference in Birmingham, our regular features from Pete Clack and Cornerstonemusik as well as previews for the Boomtown and One Love Festivals later this year. We will have some of our team at both those festivals, so there should be reviews of some of the artists in issues yet to come. Salute as always to Marco Fregnan of Reggaediscography and Sista Mariana of Rastaites for keeping The Dub flowing. Welcome to The Dub Editor – Dan-I [email protected] The Dub is available to download for free at reggaediscography.blogspot.co.uk and rastaites.com The Dub magazine is not funded and has no sponsors. While this allows for artistic freedom, it also means that money for printing is very limited. If anyone is interested in printed copies, they should contact me directly and I can ask our printers, Parchment of Oxford, to get some of the issues required for the cost of £2.50 each.

Ethnoforgery and Outsider Afrofuturism Feature Article Trace Reddell University of Denver (US)
Ethnoforgery and Outsider Afrofuturism Feature Article Trace Reddell University of Denver (US) Abstract This essay detours from Afrofuturism proper into ethnological forgery and Outsider practices, foregrounding the issues of authenticity, authorship and identity which measure Afrofuturism’s ongoing relevance to technocultural conditions and the globally-scaled speculative imagination. The ethnological forgeries of the German rock group Can, the work of David Byrne and Brian Eno, and trumpeter Jon Hassell’s Fourth World volumes posit an “hybridity-at-the-origin” of Afrofuturism that deconstructs racial myths of identity and appropriation/exploitation. The self-reflective and critical nature of these projects foregrounds issues of origination through production strategies that combine ethnic instrumentation and techniques, voices sampled from radio and TV broadcast, and genre-mashing hybrids of rock and funk along with unconventional styles like ambient drone, minimalism, noise, free jazz, field recordings, and musique concrète. With original recordings and major statements of Afrofuturist theory in mind, I orchestrate a deliberately ill-fitting mixture of Slavoj Žižek’s critique of multiculturalism, Félix Guattari’s concept of “polyphonic subjectivity,” and Marcus Boon’s idea of shamanic “ethnopsychedelic montage” in order to argue for an Outsider Afrofuturism that works along the lines of an alternative modernity at the seam of subject identity and technocultural hybridization. In tune with the Fatherless sensibilities that first united black youth in Detroit (funk, techno) and the Bronx (hip-hop) with Germany’s post-WWII generation (Can’s krautrock, Kraftwerk’s electro), Outsider Afrofuturism opens up alternative routes toward understanding subjectivity and culture—through speculative sonic practices in particular—while maintaining social behaviors that reject multiculturalism’s artificial paternal origins, boundaries and lineages.

This model was expanded upon by musicians in England and Germany during the late-1970s who developed the popular music style called Industrial as a fusion of experimental popular music sounds, performance art theatricality, and avant-garde composition.

During the 1980s three revolutions took hold of popular music: the emergence of disc-jockeys as a creative force (in particular in techno music), the advent of hip-hop (and therefore of the "rapper"), and the marriage of industrial music, heavy metal and hardcore (generically associated with the "cyber-punk" culture). Rap-music 1979-87 TM, ®, Copyright © 2005 Piero Scaruffi All rights reserved. The idea of rapping was imported into New York by the Jamaican immigrants, who were already familiar with "toasting" (a reggae artist talking in rhyme over the instrumental sections of a record). Some of them became disc-jockeys ("dj") that traveled around New York carrying their "sound system" to perform at block parties. In 1975 in the Bronx of New York, one of them, Clive "Hercules" Campbell, or "Kool Herc", started making music with two turntables out of breakbeats (the instrumental breaks of a song that focused on the rhythm section, the favorite part of the song for most dancers), while another young black man of the Bronx, Theodore "Grand Wizard" Livingstone was accidentally discovering the "skratching" sound of a turntable.
