    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.

In Curwen Best’s The Popular Music and Entertainment Culture of Bar- bados, Pathways to Digital Culture, getting back to the plantation roots of Bajan rhythms provides the historical backdrop to a Barbados phe- nomenon, while at the same time debating how tourism, technology, and transnational influences have transformed popular culture and music in Barbados. For those familiar with Caribbean music and history, one obvious question is: How did plantation drumming evolve into hi-def recor- dings of hip hop, dub, and dancehall? The author, professor of popular culture and literary studies at the University of the West Indies, Cave Hill Campus, offers some interesting comments on multiple paths to a [re]evolution of popular music and entertainment in Barbados.

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
    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.

As a pivotal point in the Transatlantic Slave Trade of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, one of Britain’s most prized colonies well into the mid twentieth century, and, since 1966, one of the most stable postcolonial nation-states in the Western hemisphere, Barbados offers an extremely important and, yet, understudied site of world history. Barbadian identity stands at a crossroads where ideals of British respectability, African cultural retentions, U.S. commodity markets, and global economic flows meet.
