    MUSICAL BORROWING IN HIP-HOP MUSIC: THEORETICAL FRAMEWORKS AND CASE STUDIES Justin A. Williams, BA, MMus Thesis submitted to the University of Nottingham for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy September 2009 0 Musical Borrowing in Hip-hop Music: Theoretical Frameworks and Case Studies Justin A. Williams ABSTRACT ‗Musical Borrowing in Hip-hop‘ begins with a crucial premise: the hip-hop world, as an imagined community, regards unconcealed intertextuality as integral to the production and reception of its artistic culture. In other words, borrowing, in its multidimensional forms and manifestations, is central to the aesthetics of hip-hop. This study of borrowing in hip-hop music, which transcends narrow discourses on ‗sampling‘ (digital sampling), illustrates the variety of ways that one can borrow from a source text or trope, and ways that audiences identify and respond to these practices. Another function of this thesis is to initiate a more nuanced discourse in hip-hop studies, to allow for the number of intertextual avenues travelled within hip-hop recordings, and to present academic frameworks with which to study them. The following five chapters provide case studies that prove that musical borrowing, part and parcel of hip-hop aesthetics, occurs on multiple planes and within myriad dimensions. These case studies include borrowing from the internal past of the genre (Ch. 1), the use of jazz and its reception as an ‗art music‘ within hip-hop (Ch. 2), borrowing and mixing intended for listening spaces such as the automobile (Ch. 3), sampling the voice of rap artists posthumously (Ch. 4), and sampling and borrowing as lineage within the gangsta rap subgenre (Ch.

    Reviews Life and Death on the New York Dance Floor 1980–1983 Tim Lawrence Durham: Duke University Press, 2016. ISBN: 978-0-8223-6202-9 RRP: US$27.95 <http://dx.doi.org/10.12801/1947-5403.2016.08.01.05> Charles de Ledesma University of East London, UK Cultural historian Tim Lawrence’s first book Love Saves the Day adopted a chronological approach to East Coast disco’s dramatic arc through the 1970s. Then his follow-up Hold On to Your Dreams widened the timeline, honing in on a valuable contributor to New York’s downtown music scene—cellist and composer Arthur Russell. While LStD ranged widely across many spaces, DJs, artists, assorted characters and issues, the Russell biography was an intimate portrait of a key player, who died from AIDS-related complications in 1992. Life and Death on the New York Dance Floor 1980–1983 (henceforth Life and Death) is the third segment in Lawrence’s New York project. Now he narrows the timeline and brings a forensic examination to just four years in the party scene. On the title, Lawrence explains, “the reference to life is intended to evoke the way that New York party culture didn’t merely survive the hyped death of disco but positively flourished in its wake”. And he clearly and convincingly argues that the short period was one characterised by a stirring artistic ferment, across music, art, dance and club space innovation. Lawrence explains: “instead of depicting the 1980–1983 period as a mere bridge that connected the big genre stories of 1970s disco and 1980s house and techno, I submitted to its kaleidoscope logic, took my foot off the historical metronome, and decided to take it—the book—to the bridge” (ix).

  • Nadia Ksaiba Biography Anyone Familiar with London's Late-Night
    Nadia Ksaiba Biography Anyone familiar with London’s late-night disco dens over the past 10 years will recognise the name Nadia Ksaiba. The Tunisian-born DJ/producer is a regular cast member at veteran electronic party Bugged Out! and Shoreditch club XOYO and one of the capital’s best-kept-secrets. A seasoned tastemaker, Ksaiba hosts the monthly show Rhythm Connection with Dan Beaumont (Chapter 10, Dalston Superstore) on NTS Radio. Now in its fifth year, the artists they’ve uncovered and played first reads like the year in dance music cover stars: Honey Dijon, The Black Madonna, Bicep, Daniel Avery, the list goes on. Her DJ style, meanwhile, flies in the face of what she calls “emotionless, seamless Beatport bangers”, instead spanning a nuanced mix of disco, boogie, proto-house, techno, Italo, minimal wave post-punk, acid and party jams that pump the heart of electronic music. Whether she’s playing Panorama Bar, soundtracking the pole-dancing at east London drag party Savage or covering Optimo for one of their famed Sunday-nighters at Glasgow’s Sub Club, there are few dancefloors that Ksaiba can’t make jack. Ksaiba has been fine-tuning her kinetic sets since the early-2000s, when the parties of Jacques Lu Cont (the Gallic moniker of pop super-producer Stuart Price) introduced her to funky, filtered French house music. When her record collection got out of hand, she bought turntables and started DJing. Her first ever gig was at Bugged Out! in 2002, swiftly followed by bookings at iconic London club Fabric, Arthur Baker’s Return To New York and beyond.

BACKGROUND Artists and entertainers, sensitive to injustice and oppression, have for years played a prominent role in expressing their aversion to apartheid. Many have supported the struggle of the majority population in South Africa and have sought imaginative ways to support the international campaign for the elimination of apartheid. Since the 1960s, many artists and entertainers have refused to perform in apartheid South Africa or have prohibited their works from being shown there, while others have made a point of exhibiting or performing only before black audiences as a gesture of defiance of the regime.

  • The Role of Kraftwerk in the Development of Electro-Funk
    KRAFTWERK: MUSIC NON-STOP Chapter 9 ‘Dragged into the Dance’ – the role of Kraftwerk in the Development of Electro-Funk ‘Once upon a time, ‘the future’ was something that hadn’t happened yet. It lay up ahead of us somewhere in the distance, filled with an unknown potential whose features and even outlines were unguessable. But during the twentieth century, an extremely odd thing has happened. In the 1920s, science fiction writers began developing detailed scenarios of what the future would be like; and since World War II the technology for making those scenarios come true has been expanding at an unprecedented rate. By now, our sense of history as a linear progression into the future has collapsed. We’re living in the future today; there’s no way to escape.’ (Aikin, 1982, p.33) Jim Aikin’s article on Kraftwerk was written just a few months before DJ producer Arthur Baker, Afrika Bambaataa and the Soul Sonic Force teamed up in New York to produce the recording ‘Planet Rock’. This was a new musical concept that matched the electronic, robot-inspired music of Kraftwerk, an emerging electronic aesthetic in African-American dance music and the improvised form rap. In the US Billboard listings, the song reached number #4 in the Black charts, and #3 in the Disco/Dance charts, and gave exposure to Bambaataa’s vision for a new electronic rap/funk sound. The new form that ‘Planet Rock’ played a large part in kick starting would later be named ‘electro funk’, and paved the way for the explosive success of Hip Hop in the years to come.
