Mirandé Copyright by Christopher Sangalang Vito 2017 The Dissertation of Christopher Sangalang Vito is approved: Committee Chairperson University of California, Riverside ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to thank my family and friends for their endless love and support, my dissertation committee for their care and guidance, my colleagues for the smiles and laughs, my students for their passion, everyone who has helped me along my path, and most importantly I would like to thank hip-hop for saving my life. iv DEDICATION For my mom. v ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Just Say No to 360s: The Politics of Independent Hip-Hop by Christopher Sangalang Vito Doctor of Philosophy, Graduate Program in Sociology University of California, Riverside, June 2017 Dr. Ellen Reese, Chairperson My dissertation addresses to what extent and how independent hip-hop challenges or reproduces U.S. mainstream hip-hop culture and U.S. culture more generally. I contend that independent hip-hop remains a complex contemporary subculture. My research design utilizes a mixed methods approach. First, I analyze the lyrics of independent hip-hop albums through a content analysis of twenty-five independent albums from 2000-2013. I uncover the dominant ideologies of independent hip-hop artists regarding race, class, gender, sexual orientation, and calls for social change.

  • 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.
