BUNNY LION RED -LP/CD • Recently unearthed and available for the first time on vinyl! • Includes LP Insert with unreleased photos and interviews with Puddy Lion and LInval Thompson • First 300 copies pressed on red vinyl. Although his lack of touring kept him from being established as a major figure in overground reggae circles, Linval Thompson’s work as a singer, songwriter and producer is essential to Jamaican music. Between 1977 and 1979, he released five solo albums and produced countless artists on the side. Thompson acted as a mentor to many up-and-comers, including Junjo Lawes, Scientist, and Eek-A- Mouse. FM-003 As dancehall became more prominent in the late 1970s, Thompson began to offer up his rhythms to sound system deejays. The mysterious deejay LP, Bunny 01. Natty Rise and Shine Lion Red was originally released on London’s Starlight records in 1979. Little was 02. Jubilation written about the album at the time; however, we have uncovered that Bunny 03. Bunny Lion at the Control Lion is in fact the legendary Puddy Roots of Killamanjaro Soundsystem fame. 04. Go Rockers 05. Blackman Kingdom 06. Mont Zion Red features ten grooving Thompson Sound rhythms voiced by Puddy. This is 07. Rat Trap the earliest documented work of the criminally under-recorded Puddy Roots. It’s 08. Bubbling Dub also the perfect gateway record for anyone curious about dub, roots reggae, or 09. Ilie dancehall. 10.

When you read inside, you'll see why. May their days overflow with blessings. This will be the first issue available only online. But for those that want hard copies, contact Parchment Printers: £1 a copy! We've done well to have issued fourteen in hard copy, when you think that Fire! (of the Harlem Renaissance), Legitime Defense and Pan African were one issue publications - and Revue du Monde Noir was issued six times. We're lucky to have what they didn't have – the online link. So I salute again the support we have from Sista Mariana at Rastaites and Marco Fregnan of Reggaediscography. Another salute also to Ali Zion, for taking The Dub to Aylesbury (five venues) - and here, there and everywhere she goes.

Eigendiagnose: Tinitus. Tinitus durch Ärger mit den curt-Schreiberlingen. Dabei war es von Anfang an klar: Die Besten sind eben auch immer Exzentriker. Dass mich das krank machen NEUERNEUERNEUERNEUER JOB JOBJOB JOB GEFÄLLIG? GEFÄLLIG?GEFÄLLIG? GEFÄLLIG? könnte und von einem Burn-out in den nächsten treiben würde, daran hatte ich nie gedacht. Und: Keine Besserung in Sicht. Dabei führen sie doch ein Leben in Saus und Braus hoch zehn, die curt-Recken. Denn natürlich ist es nicht unangenehm, in Cannes am richtigen Wochenende nur mit einem güldenen String bekleidet und mit einem Starlet im Arm von der Yacht herab ins Blitzlichtgewitter zu schreiten. Oder bei den MTV Awards lasziv von Gwen Stefanie begrapscht zu werden. Auch die richtige Party nach den Oscar-Verleihungen hat was, oder das Abhängen in Boxengassen. Und ebenfalls okay: die eine oder andere Filmpremiere oder Vernissage (Tach, Neo! Servus, Damien!). „Wie kann sich ein curt-Redakteur das alles leisten?“, wird sich ein Naivling jetzt fragen. Haha, Du ahnungsloser Narr! Du unwis- sender Konsument! Das kostet NISCHT! NULLINGER! Wir sind geladene Gäste im Schlaraffenland, so sieht's aus. Der Firmen-Porsche? Ein Geschenk! Der Akquise-Ferrari? Eine Spende. Der Verteiler-Hummer? Eine Leihgabe von einem Scheich, dessen Sohn wir mal zum Kopulieren NEUER JOB GEFÄLLIG? backstage gebracht haben bei der Comedy Lounge.

SS05 Naple Full Programme.Pdf
Across the globe the adaptation of Jamaican sound system culture has stimulated an innovative approach to sound technologies deployed to re-configure public spaces as sites for conviviality, celebration, resistance and different ways-of-knowing. In a world of digital social media, the shared, multi-sensory, social and embodied experience of the sound system session becomes ever more important and valuable. Sound System Outernational #5 – “Sounds in the City: Street Technology and Public Space” (4-5-6 April, 2019 - Naples, Italy) is designed as a multi-layered event hosted at Università degli Studi di Napoli L’Orientale with local social movement partners. Over three days and interacting with the city of Naples in its rich academic, social, political and musical dimensions, the event includes talks, roundtables, exhibitions and film screenings. It also features sound system dances hosting local and international performers in some of the city’s most iconic social spaces. The aim of the program is to provide the chance for foreign researchers to experience the local sound system scene in the grassroots venues that constitute this culture’s infrastructure in Naples. This aims to stimulate a fruitful exchange between the academic community and local practitioners, which has always been SSO’s main purpose. Sounds in the City will also provide the occasion for the SSO international research network meeting and the opportunity for a short-term research project on the Napoli sound system scene.

This is our 3rd anniversary issue, Natty Mark founding the magazine in June 2016, launching it at the 1st Mikey Dread Festival near Witney (an event that is also 3 years old this year).

Give thanks to the photographers who have allowed us to use their pictures of events this month.

The Riddim Method: Aesthetics, Practice, and Ownership in Jamaican Dancehall1
Popular Music (2006) Volume 25/3. Copyright © 2006 Cambridge University Press, pp. 447–470 doi:10.1017/S0261143006000997 Printed in the United Kingdom The riddim method: aesthetics, practice, and ownership in Jamaican dancehall1 PETER MANUEL† and WAYNE MARSHALL‡ †127 Park Ave, Leonia, NJ 07605, USA ‡88 Holworthy Street, Cambridge, MA 02138, USA Abstract The Jamaican system of recording and performance, from the 1950s to the present, constitutes a distinctive approach to notions of composition, originality and ownership. Emerging from a tradition of live performance practice mediated by (and informing) sound recordings, the relative autonomy of riddims and voicings in the Jamaican system challenges conventional ideas about the integrity of a song and the degree to which international copyright law applies to local conceptions, as enshrined in decades of practice, of musical materials as public domain. With the spread of the ‘riddim method’ to the sites of Jamaican mass migration, as evidenced by similar approaches in hip hop, reggaeton, drum’n’bass and bhangra, reggae’s aesthetic system has found adherents among artists and audiences outside of Jamaica. This paper maps out, through historical description, ethnographic data, and musical analysis, the Jamaican system as a unique and increasingly inﬂuential approach to music-making in the digital age. The advent of commercial, mass-mediated popular music genres in the twentieth century has contributed to the spread, in many music cultures worldwide, of a certain conventional ‘mainstream’ form of song, comprising an original, autonomous and reproducible entity with a relatively unique integration of lyrics, melody and chordal accompaniment. In mainstream Western music culture, the thirty-two-bar AABA structure, perhaps repeated twice or thrice with some sort of variation, constituted a quintessential type of this conventional song form.

Hope (Autor) y Jose Miguel Aponte (Traductor) Nota: Este artículo fue publicado originalmente en inglés – Hope, Donna P. “Dancehall: Origins, History, Future” en Groundings, Issue 26, July 2011, pp. 7-28. Esta traducción es un proyecto colaborativo de The Dancehall Archive and Research Initiative - [email protected] www.dancehallarchive.org 0 Dancehall: Orígenes, historia, y futuro, Hope Y Aponte Dancehall: Orígenes, historia, y futuro Donna P. Hope (Autor) y Jose Miguel Aponte (Traductor) Introducción. Este trabajo es una sinopsis de la cultura de la música dancehall, de donde viene, algunos de sus temáticas más importantes y como estas resuenan en la sociedad y cultura jamaicana. Dancehall es percibido por muchos como un fuerte ruido y un espacio molesto cargado de temas que son problemáticos. Para otros, es un lugar de muchos sonidos, canciones y temas que cuentan muchisimo acerca de la vida de los jamaiquinos de la clase trabajadora quienes están luchando para crear una imagen fantasiosa de ellos mismos que puedan articular y utilizar para proyectarse. Antecedentes tempranos del dancehall Dancehall es un componente de una trayectoria de culturas musicales en Jamaica que irrumpe en las primigenias actividades de toques de tambor y de pífano en las sociedades esclavas de las plantaciones, y luego toma prestado de todas las formas de musica jamaiquinas que precedieron su desarrollo incluyendo al mento, ska, bluebeat, dub, rocksteady y su antecedente primario, reggae. Los primeros sound systems jamaiquinos de los años 50's y 60's son un antecedente primario y directo de la cultura dancehall.
