DES FOURMIS DANS LES DOIGTS ROGNE G.D.B. M. Bistroquet (comme je l'appelle) n'a pas que des qualités (et c'est normal, "nobody's per- fect", pour citer le final d'un célèbre film), mais il a voulu offrir à la ville de Pau une salle de concert qui ne soit pas le méga Zénith ou les halls au son pourri de la Foire. Il a voulu offrir à un public qui se plaignait qu'à part Pascal Obispo et Lara Fabian, il n'y avait pas de COURS DE DJEMBÉ concerts à Pau, des concerts variés : rock, ska, punk, reggae, etc... E A Résultat des courses, une salle difficilement remplie, un public qui boude, qui rechigne à verser 5 euros pour un concert, qui se pointe à N D 11 heures au lieu de 10. Devinez la suite, Eric va faire comme les copains : du DJ, puisqu'il n'y a que ça qui marche. Alors bon public palois, ne pleurez plus si vous devez à nouveau vous F U rabattre sur Lara Fabian à 50 euros et en plus vous serez obligé d'arriver à l'heure prévue ! La Scène n'est pas la première salle qui aura A L "succombé" devant le public palois, et malheu- reusement ce ne sera pas la dernière ! Je me permets de rappeler à ce public qui N rechigne à verser quelques euros pour voir un T groupe, que quelqu'un comme Eric, ou tout autre maso qui essaie de produire un spectacle à ses frais, sans être une asso (donc dispensée T E de toutes sortes de taxes) hyper subventionnée par les collectivités (donc sans prendre aucun risque financier), non seulement doit payer le S groupe, mais doit aussi payer la salle (ici un loyer cer- S tainement élevé), des taxes en tous genres (TVA, taxe professionnelle, taxe d'apprentissage…), des salariés (salaire + charges), la SACEM, des travaux pour mise en conformité, j'en passe et sûrement des M.J.C.

  • Grime + Gentrification
    GRIME + GENTRIFICATION In London the streets have a voice, multiple actually, afro beats, drill, Lily Allen, the sounds of the city are just as diverse but unapologetically London as the people who live here, but my sound runs at 140 bpm. When I close my eyes and imagine London I see tower blocks, the concrete isn’t harsh, it’s warm from the sun bouncing off it, almost comforting, council estates are a community, I hear grime, it’s not the prettiest of sounds but when you’ve been raised on it, it’s home. “Grime is not garage Grime is not jungle Grime is not hip-hop and Grime is not ragga. Grime is a mix between all of these with strong, hard hitting lyrics. It's the inner city music scene of London. And is also a lot to do with representing the place you live or have grown up in.” - Olly Thakes, Urban ​ Dictionary Or at least that’s what Urban Dictionary user Olly Thake had to say on the matter back in 2006, and honestly, I couldn’t have put it better myself. Although I personally trust a geezer off of Urban Dictionary more than an out of touch journalist or Good Morning Britain to define what grime is, I understand that Urban Dictionary may not be the most reliable source due to its liberal attitude to users uploading their own definitions with very little screening and that Mr Thake’s definition may also leave you with more questions than answers about what grime actually is and how it came to be.

  • Rastalogy in Tarrus Riley's “Love Created I”
    Rastalogy in Tarrus Riley’s “Love Created I” Darren J. N. Middleton Texas Christian University f art is the engine that powers religion’s vehicle, then reggae music is the 740hp V12 underneath the hood of I the Rastafari. Not all reggae music advances this movement’s message, which may best be seen as an anticolonial theo-psychology of black somebodiness, but much reggae does, and this is because the Honorable Robert Nesta Marley OM, aka Tuff Gong, took the message as well as the medium and left the Rastafari’s track marks throughout the world.1 Scholars have been analyzing such impressions for years, certainly since the melanoma-ravaged Marley transitioned on May 11, 1981 at age 36. Marley was gone too soon.2 And although “such a man cannot be erased from the mind,” as Jamaican Prime Minister Edward Seaga said at Marley’s funeral, less sanguine critics left others thinking that Marley’s demise caused reggae music’s engine to cough, splutter, and then die.3 Commentators were somewhat justified in this initial assessment. In the two decades after Marley’s tragic death, for example, reggae music appeared to abandon its roots, taking on a more synthesized feel, leading to electronic subgenres such as 1 This is the basic thesis of Carolyn Cooper, editor, Global Reggae (Kingston, Jamaica: Canoe Press, 2012).

David Carter B.Music / Music Technology (Honours, First Class) Queensland Conservatorium Griffith University A dissertation submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the award of the degree Doctor of Philosophy 19 June 2008 Keywords Contemporary Music; Dance Music; Disco; DJ; DJ Spooky; Dub; Eight Lines; Electronica; Electronic Music; Errata Erratum; Experimental Music; Hip Hop; House; IDM; Influence; Techno; John Cage; Minimalism; Music History; Musicology; Rave; Reich Remixed; Scanner; Surface Noise. i Abstract In the late 1990s critics, journalists and music scholars began referring to a loosely associated group of artists within Electronica who, it was claimed, represented a new breed of experimentalism predicated on the work of composers such as John Cage, Karlheinz Stockhausen and Steve Reich. Though anecdotal evidence exists, such claims by, or about, these ‘Clever Children’ have not been adequately substantiated and are indicative of a loss of history in relation to electronic music forms (referred to hereafter as Electronica) in popular culture. With the emergence of the Clever Children there is a pressing need to redress this loss of history through academic scholarship that seeks to document and critically reflect on the rhizomatic developments of Electronica and its place within the history of twentieth century music.

  • Moving Dancehall Off the Island: Female Sexuality and Club Culture in Toronto
    Karen Flynn: Moving Dancehall Off the Island: Female Sexuality and Club Culture in Toronto Moving Dancehall Off the Island: Female Sexuality and Club Culture in Toronto Karen Flynn Associate Professor University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign, IL, USA Abstract While there has been an exciting growth in scholarship on dancehall culture, primarily in the fields of cultural and literary studies as they relate to Jamaica, more attention needs to be given to its configuration in other geographical locations and other popular culture arenas. This article explores dancehall culture from a geographic site, in Toronto, which, despite its large Caribbean population, is often a mere footnote in larger diasporic studies. Moving beyond the proclivity of viewing dancehall culture and music from a purely patriarchal misogynistic viewpoint, the article focuses on the redemptive and empowering possibilities that this popular Black expressive form holds. It underscores how dancehall culture and music challenge hegemonic scripts predicated on stereotypes of Black women’s sexuality. Despite the contradictions inherent in the music and the performance of female artists such as Lady Saw and Tanya Stephens, dancehall culture evokes women as active agents who are able to articulate their sexual desires. Keywords: sexuality, dancehall music, Black/Caribbean women, dance 183 www.sta.uwi.edu/crgs/index.asp UWI IGDS CRGS Issue 8 ISSN 1995-1108 Dedication This article is dedicated to KaosKrew (especially Philip Cole), Slim & Trim (Michael Banfield and Leslie Corion) DJ’s Quincy, Bobby B, Mark Anthony, Mike Gibbs, Wayne; my brother DJ Extacy (Dwayne Reynolds), Eddie Williams, Andy Coward, the late Michael Charles and Dorian Major (RIP) and the rest of the Tdot promoters.

  • 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.

Hip hop and rap may be an American import, but Britain’s MCs have married it to musical styles such as electronica, garage and underground grime to create new genres of their own. Artists such as Mercury Award-winner Dizzee Rascal, The Streets, Roots Manuva and Sway have imprinted the UK charts with their beats and rhymes. Just one example of a musical style which has originated in the UK is drum and bass (or ‘d&b’). The electronic dance music, which originated in the UK, combines fast broken beat drums with a strong bassline and has had an influence on popular music the world over. Pendulum, the biggest act in drum and bass right now, is no cosmopolitan Londoner, but a native of Perth in Australia – proving the genre’s ability to span continents.
