All inquiries are framed by a range of terms and concepts pertinent in Latin American contexts such as colonialism and its repercussions, hybridity, migration, diaspora, and cultural exchange. Class meetings are divided into lecture/discussion segments, videos, listening, and performance/ demonstration. It is hoped that students will leave the course with a better understanding of the history, musical styles, and local meanings of numerous Latin American musical forms and their impact on the United States, as well as with stronger listening skills and new ways of discussing music. Instructional mode: virtual. This course is designed to be 100% online. Students will be able to complete all required course activities remotely. Global Cultures and Cultural Diversity Flags The course carries Global Cultures and Cultural Diversity flags. Global Cultures courses are designed to increase your familiarity with cultural groups outside the United States. You should therefore expect a substantial portion of your grade to come from assignments covering the practices, beliefs, and histories of at least one non-U.S. cultural group, past or present. Cultural Diversity Flags ask students to explore the shared practices and beliefs of one or more underrepresented cultural groups in the US subject to Music of Mexico and the Caribbean, p. 2 persistent marginalization. In addition to learning about these diverse groups in relation to their specific contexts, you’ll also reflect on your own cultural experiences. Reading Materials One book will be used in conjunction with the second half of the class, Music of the Hispanic Caribbean (Oxford University Press, 2010). Online access to the book is currently free through the UT Libraries site and the Hathi Trust (https://search.lib.utexas.edu/discovery/fulldisplay?docid=alma991028660739706011&c ontext=L&vid=01UTAU_INST:SEARCH&lang=en&search_scope=MyInst_and_CI&ad aptor=Local%20Search%20Engine&tab=Everything&query=any,contains,music%20in% 20the%20hispanic%20caribbean&offset=0), though the interface is a bit clunky. The ebook is also available on loan for $19.50 through Redbook (https://www.redshelf.com/book/1605318/music-in-the-hispanic-caribbean-1605318- 9780199974009), or for purchase used (paperback) through Amazon.com for about $25. Readings for the first half of class consist of a selection of articles from various authors. They are available on our Canvas site, along with assigned listening for the entire semester. Please check the site soon and let us know if you have any problem accessing materials there. The UT administration has the following policy: No materials used in this class, including, but not limited to, lecture hand-outs, videos, assessments (quizzes, exams, papers, projects, homework assignments), in-class materials, review sheets, and additional problem sets, may be shared online or with anyone outside of the class unless you have my explicit, written permission. Unauthorized sharing of materials promotes cheating. It is a violation of the University’s Student Honor Code and an act of academic dishonesty. Any suspected unauthorized sharing of materials will be reported to Student Conduct and Academic Integrity in the Office of the Dean of Students. These reports can result in sanctions, including failure in the course. Listening Students are asked to listen to assigned musical selections each week and will be responsible for recognizing and identifying them; two or three songs per lecture will be expected of you. All listening is available on Canvas; your TA will help you explore the music in section by creating low-stakes group and individual exercises. For each musical example assigned, consider making a list for test review that includes as much of the following information about it as possible: —The title of the piece and the composer, if known —The approximate date it was written, within a decade —The culture area/country with which it is associated — The lyrics of the piece, what they discuss — The instrumentation of the piece — The typical contexts in which it is performed — The formal musical characteristics that define the music —The broader social’ issues discussed that relate to the piece Music of Mexico and the Caribbean, p. 3 Grading Policy Students are required to attend classes and labs, to keep up with the reading and listening, to respond with comments on Canvas posts, to participate actively in discussion in class, to take exams on the assigned day unless prior arrangements are made, and to complete all assignments punctually (online posts are intended to support discussion in class on specific days). Grades for undergraduates will be determined on the basis of three in-class essay exams, other small assignments (postings to Canvas, a review of an online concert), a final oral presentation in groups, class participation, and attendance. The three exams will constitute 45% of the student’s overall grade, the minor assignments 35% (postings 20%, lab section activities 10% concert review 5%), the oral presentation 10%, attendance 5%, and class participation 5%. Students may opt to write an 8-10 pp. paper instead of taking one of the midterm exams or the final. If they choose the paper option, they should refer to the writing guidelines below for graduate students. Those planning to write a paper must provide the instructor and TA with a proposed topic and bibliography no later than week 5 and an outline of the paper by week 7. Missed Test Policy You are asked to keep track of scheduled test days on the syllabus and to take tests when they are offered. Students missing tests without a medical excuse or making prior arrangements will not be allowed to make them up, so please make a note. Attendance Regular attendance is important because various activities that take place in class (the screening of video clips, musical demonstrations or performances, collective discussion, guest presentations, and so on) cannot be experienced through individual work at home. The same is true for attendance in discussion section. For that reason, attendance in both class and sections is mandatory and will be monitored. Attendance will be assigned 45 points (5% of your grade) and after the first three unexcused absences by a given student each absence will result in 3 lost points. Class participation Your participation grade will be based on meaningful contributions in collective discussions. Meaningful contributions are taken to be analytic engagement with the texts and course themes. Each student is to come to class prepared to participate. Those who take the initiative to engage critically with the readings and themes of the class and share their thoughts on a regular basis will graded highly in this area. Those who participate infrequently in class discussions will be graded down. Configuring your Computer for Our Class We will occasionally try singing melodies together, learning song lyrics together, even playing together or demonstrating particular instrumental parts as feasible online. In order to do this, a few settings on Zoom need to be configured appropriately. First, under “settings,” go to “audio” and “advanced.” Make sure the “enable original sound” option box is checked. Also, make sure the “suppress persistent background noise” and “suppress intermittent background noise” options are disabled. For those who plan to Music of Mexico and the Caribbean, p. 4 play music: in order to give you the best sound without clipping, it is best to uncheck “automatically adjust microphone volume” on the main audio setting page. Then you’ll need to manually set the gain volume on your mic based on the sound of your voice/instrument. Most people suggest using headphones when connecting to class, to avoid feedback problems. Concert Reviews As mentioned, one written concert review is required of all students. The review should be 3 or 4 pages in length, typed and double-spaced. The overall goal of the assignment is that you experience music making as it is performed and develop an appropriate vocabulary with which to describe/discuss it. Please consult at least two authoritative written sources (in addition to class readings) in order to acquire background information on the styles of music you hear at the concert; the sources should be formally cited and referenced in the review. You may choose any online concert related to class content to view. If you’re not sure what to watch, we can provide suggestions. Please hand in your review no later than Tuesday of Week 15 unless special arrangements are made. Individual Projects You will prepare a final class presentation on music by researching a particular musical artist, genre, composition, or national or regional musical style of your choice in small groups. Focus on particular aspects of Mexican/Caribbean music making as appropriate and discuss them briefly with the class for 15 minutes. Some portion of the presentation should discuss or analyze music per se: instruments, sounds, rhythms, etc., and the remainder can focus on topics such as historical background/development, contemporary social meanings of the repertoire, changes in style, accompanying dance, etc.

La presente tesis de investigación se inserta dentro de los debates contemporáneos sobre cultura urbana en la frontera norte de México y se resume en tres grandes premisas: la primera es que el corrido y el metal forman parte de dos estructuras musicales de larga duración y cambio lento cuya permanencia es una forma de patrimonio cultural. Para desarrollar esta premisa se elabora una reconstrucción historiográfica desde la irrupción de los géneros musicales en el siglo XIX, pasando a la apropiación por compositores tijuanenses a mediados del siglo XX, hasta llegar al testimonio de primera mano de los músicos contemporáneos.

  • Perspectives on New Wave Cumbia | Norient.Com 7 Oct 2021 06:12:57
    Perspectives on New Wave Cumbia | norient.com 7 Oct 2021 06:12:57 Perspectives on New Wave Cumbia by Moses Iten Since the beginning of the 21st century «new wave cumbia» has been growing as an independent club culture simultaneously in several parts of the world. Innovative producers have reinvented the dance music-style cumbia and thus produced countless new subgenres. The common ground: they mix traditional Latin American cumbia-rhythms with rough electronic sounds. An insider perspective on a rapid evolution. From the Norient book Out of the Absurdity of Life (see and order here). https://norient.com/stories/new-wave-cumbia Page 1 of 15 Perspectives on New Wave Cumbia | norient.com 7 Oct 2021 06:12:58 Dreams are made of being at the right place at the right time and in early June 2007 I happened to arrive in Tijuana, Mexico. Tijuana had been proclaimed a new cultural Mecca by the US magazine Newsweek, largely due to the output of a group of artists called Nortec Collective and inadvertently spawned a new scene – a movement – called nor-tec (Mexican norteno folk music and techno). In 2001, the release of the compilation album Nortec Collective: The Tijuana Sessions Vol.1 (Palm Pictures) catapulted Tijuana from its reputation of being a sleazy, drug-crime infested Mexico/US border town to the frontline of hipness. Instantly it was hailed as a laboratory for artists exploring the clash of worlds: haves and have-nots, consumption and its leftovers, South meeting North, developed vs. underdeveloped nations, technology vs. folklore. After having hosted some of the first parties in Australia featuring members of the Nortec Collective back in 2005 and 2006, the connection was made.

  • Five Video Clips from Mexico | Norient.Com 5 Oct 2021 19:23:12 Five Video Clips from Mexico PLAYLIST by Moses Iten
    Five Video Clips from Mexico | norient.com 5 Oct 2021 19:23:12 Five Video Clips from Mexico PLAYLIST by Moses Iten In our video clip series we're heading for Mexico this time. Australian author Moses Iten compiled five Mexican clips for Norient between field recordings, Reggaeton and Cumbia. He begins with one of our long time favorites, a sci-fi shaving odyssey starting from the heights of Machu Picchu. But see and read by yourself what he's got for you furthermore. Artist: Frikstailers Track: Crop Circles The team behind this video is Flamboyant Paradise, who really brought the Frikstailers to worldwide attention with their remix of «Hold The Line» by Major Lazer. The Frikstailers duo is originally from Cordoba, Argentina, but in recent years have relocated to the world’s largest metropolis: Mexico City. Their irreverent sense of humour and fun approach to dancefloor music is reflected in their visuals, whilst at the same time a profound commentary on «Latin American» identity, both exploiting and playing with clichés. Artist: Nortec Collective Presents: Bostich+Fussible Track: Camino Verde Nortec Collective have always produced outstanding videos, because is characterized by musicians and video artists work in constant collaboration both conceptually and aesthetically. Both Bostich and Fussible live in the Las Playas neighbourhood where this video was filmed, and another characteristic of their videos are the many personal references made and being in tribute to their beloved city of Tijuana. Bostich+Fussible imagine «Camino Verde» as the name of an imaginary underground metro line in Tijuana, a city well known for it’s lack of civic infrastructure.

  • Listening to the Line: Notes on Music, Globalization, and the US-Mexico Border1
    Rev17-01 5/4/05 19:46 Página 143 Josh Kun* ➲ Listening to the Line: Notes on Music, Globalization, and the US-Mexico Border1 The following is an experiment in theory and practice, and is therefore divided into two parts. The first introduces the concept of “the aural border”, my attempt to listen to the US-Mexico border as a geography of sound and music. The second explores this notion through an excerpt from a critical performance text of mine, “Border Sound Files: An Audio Essay”, which tells musical stories of the border as a key site of globalization. 1. The Aural Border I want to pose a few starting points for understanding what it might mean to consider the US-Mexico border as a field of sound, a terrain of musicality and music-making, of static and noise, of melodic convergence and dissonant clashing. And by this I don’t nec- essarily mean assembling a laundry list of every song ever written about the border or of every band or musician ever from the border (though this project has its own merits). I mean opening the doors to a new archive of historicity and analysis, a new methodology of understanding the audio-formation of national and social identities within specific, delineated geopolitical territories. I am understanding the aural border as both an archaeology and a genealogy of “sub- jugated knowledges” or “disqualified knowledges” that unveil the many multivalent ways the very idea of the border gets constructed and disseminated through sound and music. This entails both the “release” and “emancipation” of hidden and repressed “local discur- sivities” (its archaeological function) and the praxis or “tactics” required to bring them into play in service of “opposition and of struggle against the coercion of a theoretical, unitary, formal, and scientific discourse” (its genealogical function) (Foucault 1980: 80).

  • Mexican Folk Dance from the North of Mexico
    Dance Links: Contemporary and Mexican Folk Moves Minerva Tapia Mexican Folk dance from the North of Mexico “The Tijuana Nortec dancing style embodies imaginaries of modernity while performatively reconfiguring tradition in relation to an imaginary present and future. To dance Nortec music is to reimagine tradition and modernity through the body” Alejandro L. Madrid Key words: bailes norteños, Nortec Collective and Tribal Monterrey. Folk Dance: Norteño dances from Baja California, Tamaulipas, and Nuevo León, Mexico. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1sOcO6mV9CA Contemporary Dances: Nortec and Tribal Monterrey from the Northern part of Mexico (Tijuana, Baja California and Monterrey, Nuevo León). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rSY6SLI0fPA Dance Links: Contemporary and Mexican Folk Moves Minerva Tapia Folk Dance: Norteño dances from Baja California, Mexico. Contemporary Dances: Nortec and Tribal from the Northern part of Mexico (Tijuana, Baja California and Monterrey, Nuevo León). MUSIC Norteño is a genre of Mexican music. The accordion, bajo sexto, double bass, drums, accordion, saxophone, clarinet, and tuba are norteño’s most characteristic instruments. Its repertory covers canción ranchera, balada, huapado norteño, polka, redova and chotís. Nortec from the combination of “norteño” and “techno” is an electronic music genre from Tijuana, Mexico. Tribal it is a mix of Colombian “cumbia”, Mexican pop, and techno beats from Monterrey, Mexico. NORTEÑO DANCE The baile (dance) del calabaceado or “cowboy dance” comes from the area of the Baja peninsula, which borders southern California. Created in the late 50s when the norteña (northern) style of Mexican music gained popularity, the dancers mimic movements of the cowboys and the animals (cows) including jumps, turns and kicks intended to create a cloud of dust underneath their boots.
