First of all, I wish to thank my supervisor, Ragnhild Brøvig- Hanssen, for taking a genuine interest in my work, and being so generous with her time, guidance, and support. Her contribution has been absolutely invaluable, and I have appreciated our conversations, her detailed and constructive comments on all of my drafts, and her general encouragement throughout the process. I was lucky enough to get the opportunity to present a draft of this thesis at the 10th Art of Record Production conference at Drexel University, Philadelphia in November 2015. I would like to thank the organizers of the conference, as well as the other participants for valuable feedback, inspiring paper presentations, and interesting conversations. A special thanks go to my co-student Emil Kraugerud, for being such a great travelling companion, and also to Associate Professor Hans T. Zeiner-Henriksen for joining us on a memorably day of sightseeing in New York. In addition, I want to thank the rest of my co-students for interesting conversations, important lunch breaks, and not least our short-lived but magnificent weekly ritual of celebrating “kakefredag” (cake Friday) at the university.

The print advertisement for the Side Man showed a quartet featuring an accordionist, guitarist, organist, and an attractive piece of furniture about the size of a hi-fi. Inside its wooden exterior, the Side Man relied on vacuum tubes and a motor driven wheel with electrical contact points to generate its sounds.

  • Boom Bap Ex Machina: Hip-Hop Aesthetics and the Akai MPC
    Perspectives on Music Production Producing Music Boom Bap ex Machina: Hip-Hop Aesthetics and the Akai MPC Mike Exarchos (a.k.a. Stereo Mike) | London College of Music (University of West London) Introduction Over the past three decades, the growing literature on hip-hop musicology has paid ample tribute to Akai’s range of MPCs (originally, MIDI Production Centers—currently, Music Production Controllers), acknowledging their pivotal influence on rap production practices (D’Errico 2015; George 1998; Harkins 2009, 2010; Kajikawa 2015b; Morey and McIntyre 2014; Ratcliffe 2014; Rodgers 2003; Rose 1994; Schloss 2014; Sewell 2013; Shevlock 2017; Swiboda 2014; Wang 2014; Williams 2010). The technology’s combined functionality of sampling, drum machine and MIDI sequencing features has been embraced by rap practitioners ever since the release of the standalone MPC60 in 1988. The timeline coincides with particular sonic priorities in Hip-Hop that can be grouped under the ‘Boom Bap’ aesthetic—an onomatopoeic celebration of the prominence of sampled drum sounds programmed over sparse and heavily syncopated instrumentation. But what is the association between subgenre aesthetics and MPC functionality, and what parallels can be drawn between the evolution of the technology and stylistic deviations in the genre? The chapter examines how MPC technology impacts upon the stylization of Hip- Hop as a result of unique sonic, rhythmic and interface-related characteristics, which condition sampling, programming and mixing practices, determining in turn recognizable sonic signatures. Furthermore, the boom bap sound is traced from its origins in the mid-to-late 1980s to its current use as an East Coast production reference, honoring a sample-based philosophy that is facilitated by the MPCs’ physical interface and operating script.

Dimas Phetorant2 1, 2Program Studi Musik, Fakultas Seni Pertunjukan, Institut Kesenian Jakarta Email: [email protected], [email protected] ABSTRAK Pesatnya kemajuan teknologi dan media tak dapat dielakkan. Penelitian ini membahas pembelajaran musik digital. Media yang digunakan adalah groovebox. Karakteristik yang terdapat dalam groovebox sangat beragam. Pembelajaran musik merupakan proses transfer dua arah dimana guru sebagai pemberi informasi dan siswa sebagai penerima informasi. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah menambah wawasan dan sudut pandang berbeda dalam pembelajaran musik. Membuat akor, membuat ketukan, memilih efek, menemukan ide-ide musik baru dapat dibuat menggunakan groovebox. Untuk mengaplikasikannya, dibutuhkan peralatan tambahan. Peralatan tersebut adalah satu laptop, groovebox, DAW (digital audio workstasion), dan telepon genggam. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kualitatif deskriptif. Pengumpulan data dengan studi pustaka, dan analisis. Peneliti mengumpulkan data dari buku, literatur, catatan dan laporan-laporan untuk mencari informasi mengenai groovebox, dan pembelajaran. Kata Kunci: groovebox, pembelajaran, musik ABSTRACT The rapid advancement of technology and media is inevitable. This research discusses digital music learning. The media used was groovebox. The characteristics contained in the groovebox box are very diverse. Learning music is a two-way transfer process where the teacher is the information provider and the student is the recipient of the information. The purpose of this research is to add insights and different points of view in learning music. Creating chords, making beats, selecting effects, discovering new musical ideas can be created using the groovebox. To apply, additional equipment is needed.
