  • Hawkwind – 50Th Anniversary Live
    Hawkwind – 50th Anniversary Live (58:39 + 48:56, CD, Vinyl, Cherry Red Records, 2020) So kennt man die Space-Rock- Urgesteine. Da feiern Hawkwind ihr 50-jähriges Jubiläum, aber statt darum ein Riesenbrimborium zu veranstalten bauen die Mannen um Dave Brock völlig unprätentiös eine Setlist aus einiges unverwüstlichen Klassikern, aber ebenfalls Material des aktuellen Studioalbums „All Aboard The Skylark“ zusammen. Optisch ansprechend verpackt mit einer Laserhsow, dazu als Gast den langzeitig freundschaftlich verbundenen Kompagnon Phil Campbell – seines Zeichens Gitarrist bei Motörhead – und fertig ist das individuelle Geburtstagspaket. Der Mitschnitt zu diesem Livealbum entstand auf dem Abschlusskonzert der „50th Anniversay Tour“ im November 2019 in der legendären Royal Albert Hall in London. Es steht zwar „50“ drauf, aber letztendlich steckt natürlich etwas weniger drinnen. Denn Hawkwind streifen eben nur einige Stationen ihrer umfangreichen Karriere, setzen zwar in erster Linie auf die Klassiker der 70er wie z.B. ‚Born To Go‘, ‚Space Is Deep‘, ‚Spirit Of The Age‘, ‚The Watcher‘, ‚Silver Machine‘ oder die beiden Doppelpacks ‚Assault And Battery / The Golden Void‘ und ‚Master Of The Universe / Welcome To The Future‘. Doch genauso bekommen insgesamt fünf Stücke aus „All Aboard The Skylark“ ihr Recht. Letztendlich ist dies ein teilweise übergangslos ineinander greifender Mix aus offensichtlichen Klassikern, wenngleich ohne die ganz großen Überraschungen. Dazu noch ein kurzes Blitzlicht in die 80er und 90er, angereichert um aktuelle Stücke. Immerhin gedenkt man beim unverwüstlichen ‚Silver Machine‘ dem legendären ehemaligen Bandmitglied Lemmy Kilmister, wobei ebenfalls der typische augenzwinkernde Humor nicht fehlen darf. Denn der bei diesem Stück den Gesang übernehmende Schlagzeuger Richard Chadwick kontert ganz locker die Frage „Richard verliert seine Stimme, möchtest Du noch ‚Silver Machine‘ singen?“ mit einem klaren „Es geht noch“ und schon geht die sprichwörtliche und gut geölte Space-Rock-Post, der Trip in weite Sphären, mit Volldampf ab.

  • Capturing Hip Hop Histories
    capturing hip hop histories SOUTH-WEST HEADZ Master Blast Roadshow poster by Raz (Kilo), 1986. Photograph: Kilo. First published 2021 2021 Adam de Paor-Evans Cover graff by Remser Remser started writing in 1997 after seeing dubs and pieces by Sceo, Fixer, Teach, and G-Sane at the M5 pillar spot in Exeter. His school bus used to loop around Sannerville Way and the pieces could be seen from the road as well as the train. A couple of years prior to this, Remser’s mum randomly bought him a copy of Spraycan Art, and he knew straight away that it was something he wanted to be part of. In early 2000 he moved to London and hooked up with the DNK/CWR boys, they were way better than him and super-active but this experience pushed him to develop his style and learn about all aspects of graffiti writing. Respect and love to all of the South-West writers and hip hop headz, too many to mention but you know who you are! DNK CWR Waxnerds forever...

  • Obscene Gestures: Sexual Transgression and Late Twentieth-Century American Political Culture
    Obscene Gestures: Sexual Transgression and Late Twentieth-Century American Political Culture Patrick Scott Lawrence, PhD University of Connecticut, 2016 Tracing a cultural history from the 1970s to the 1990s, Obscene Gestures places popular and legal notions of obscenity in conversation with anti-consumerist and anti-capitalist resistance movements, women of color feminism, and LGBTQ activism. Since the 1973 Supreme Court ruling in Miller v. California, obscenity discourse has policed the shape of the nation by marking non-normative bodies as objectionable. The dissertation’s study of the cultural artifacts this discourse concerns opens by situating the history of literary obscenity alongside the key theories of sexuality, power, race, and knowledge. The first body chapter links the Miller ruling with 1970s-era neoconservative policies by considering some of the decade’s major novels, including Thomas Pynchon’s Gravity’s Rainbow (1973), revealing a home- front cultural politics that stymied dissent by classing as out of bounds many forms of political speech, including Huynh Cong Ut’s 1972 photo The Terror of War. Chapter Two builds upon the polarization this moment caused via an analysis of the feminist battles over pornography in the early 1980s. I juxtapose figures on both sides of this debate with works by women of color, such as Alice Walker’s The Color Purple (1983), that address the histories of embodiment that this debate tended to obscure. The occlusion of race in organizing around pornography parallels the role of possessive individualism in justifying racial wealth disparities during the Reagan administration, which the third chapter highlights. Working in the shadow of the 1986 Meese Commission report, this chapter interprets neoliberal economic policies as an enactment of racial indifference through the metaphors of sex and violence in The Bonfire of the Vanities (1987) and American Psycho (1990).

  • 8. Hip Hop, Graffiti, Break, Rap, Jóvenes Y Cultura Urbana. Francisco Reyes
    Revista_Juventud78.qxd 27/9/07 16:48 Página 125 Fracisco Reyes Sánchez. Profesor de Publicidad. Universidad Complutense de Madrid. ELDOCUM TEMAENTOS 85 Hip hop, graffiti, break, rap, jóvenes y cultura urbana. Qué es el Hip Hop. El Hip Hop es un movimiento urbano, juvenil y trasgresor que surge en Nueva York a finales de los años 60 y que engloba tres disciplinas artísticas: La pintura (el graffiti), la danza (el breakdance) y la música (rap, electro, breakbeat, beat-box, ragga...) Es un término desconocido que las personas ajenas al Hip Hop, utilizan sobre todo para referirse a la música rap. Los medios de comunicación usan indiscriminadamente el término Hip Hop para referirse a actitudes, ropas, músicas, pinturas o bailes que poco o nada tienen que ver con el Hip Hop. Los DJ´s fueron los primeros en acuñar el término Hip Hop, pero nadie parece ponerse de acuerdo sobre su significado. Literalmente, en inglés, “hip” es saltar y “hop” cadera, y sobre la palabra Hip Hop, algunos de los pioneros de la vieja escuela de Nueva York, opinan que hace referencia al gesto, al movimiento de los DJ´s al saltar de un plato (giradiscos) a otro en sus sesiones: “you hip and you hop”. A los seguidores del Hip Hop, a los integrantes de este movimiento, de la cultura Hip Hop, se les llama B.Boys. Hay varias versiones sobre el origen y significado de la palabra B.Boy (Break Boy, Beat Boy, Bad Boy...) pero la más acertada es la de Break Boy, “los chicos del break”, así les llamaban los primeros DJ´s que realizaban sus sesiones en los parques neoyorquinos a los chicos que se contorsionaban en el suelo al ritmo de su música.
