Hip-Hop Pedagogy As Production Practice: Reverse-Engineering the Sample-Based Aesthetic
Journal of Popular Music Education Special issue on Hip-hop Hip-Hop Pedagogy as Production Practice: Reverse-Engineering the Sample-Based Aesthetic Mike Exarchos (a.k.a. Stereo Mike) | London College of Music (University of West London) Introduction Hip-hop1 production practice contains a rich matrix of creative methods within its paradigm, which have the potential to inform and inspire music production pedagogy in higher education. The techno-artistic trajectory of rap production consists of numerous phases that may involve live performance, recording, sampling, synthesis, programming, mixing and mastering. Furthermore, it is not rare for self-contained processes—such as interpolation2 and the creation of content for sampling—to be actualized as developmental phases within the larger production trajectory. The well-documented issues affecting phonographic sampling have given rise to alternative practices, inviting live instrumental musicianship within hip-hop music-making, but also a dependence on synthesized sonics (often as signifiers of geographical and stylistic divergence). As a consequence, contemporary hip-hop production—arguably more than any other commercial music-making form—can provide a dynamic, applied context for the exploration, implementation, interplay and interaction of most phonographic stages conceived of and practiced within popular music production. This is not to say that other musics do not deploy multiple methods within their production processes, or that Hip-Hop exemplifies a sole case of multi-layered—or bricolage—production. After all, many popular musics have borrowed from hip-hop practices, and the rap production paradigm can be traced outside of strict stylistic barriers 1 The terms ‘Hip-Hop’ and ‘Rap’ will be used interchangeably throughout the paper, referring to the musical genre, outputs and practices associated with hip-hop culture and art. -
Q&A: Brooklyn Artist Aakash Nihalani Talks Designing Mixtape Covers
Q&A: Brooklyn Artist Aakash Nihalani Talks Designing Mixtape Covers For Das Racist and His New Show, Overlap, Opening at Bose Pacia This Thursday By Zach Baron published: Mon., Nov. 1 2010 @ 12:40PM All images courtesy Bose Pacia The young, Queens-born tape artist Aakash Nihalani did the geometrically stoned cover for Das Racist's Shut Up, Dude mixtape. He's had his distinctive, oddly placed, brightly colored tape installations ripped off by everybody from other street artists to Vampire Weekend. And he's got a new, Jeff Koons-pranking solo show up this Thursday at Dumbo gallery Bose Pacia, entitled Overlap. Das Racist, of course, are playing the afterparty at 17 Frost. In advance of Nihalani's solo debut at the gallery, we chatted a bit about the upcoming show and his brushes with various local musicians, both friendly and otherwise. When last we spoke, I think, it was about whether you'd done the art for Vampire Weekend's "Cousins" video. You hadn't, but you did point me to someone who said "Vampire Weekend totally ripped him off (poorly) without consent or compensation." Did they ever reach out to make it right? Is that video still a sore spot? Nah, they never reached out. I wouldn't be so bummed if they didn't do such a poor imitation. But I kinda can't blame the band as much as the director who 'came up' with the idea for the video. Come to think of it, your aesthetic seems like it's particularly prone to other people borrowing it--is that a source of pain for you? Want to name any other names of people who've ripped you off while we're here? Sometimes it gets weird to see my style copied, but I think it's a benefit to have my stuff be so relatable. -

Music plays as Jesse speaks, then fades out. 00:00:19 Jesse Host It’s Bullseye. I’m Jesse Thorn. My next guest is Riz Ahmed. Riz has Thorn spent the last decade pursuing dual careers in acting and hip-hop. His work has been controversial, funny, subtle—the sort of stuff critics love. And it’s found huge audiences despite all that. He moved from British independent movies, like the suicide bomber comedy, Four Lions, to a big supporting part in Jack Gyllenhaal’s Nightcrawler, to full-fledged leading man roles. He recently picked up his first Oscar nomination for his role in Sound of Metal. That made him the first Muslim ever nominated for Best Actor, by the way. And also, like I said, he is an MC and he’s very good at it. When I talked with him in 2016, he’d just released a new EP in collaboration with Heems, of Das Racist. They called the project the Swet Shop Boys. He’s kept rapping since then. [Music fades in.] Last year, he released The Long Goodbye, an LP. Here’s a single from it. “Mogambo”. 00:01:18 Music Music “Mogambo” from the album The Long Goodbye by Riz Ahmed. -
And Toy Selectah Bridge Friendship and Music for Their New Project, Compass, Collaborating with Over 90 Artists from Across the World
COMPASS CAMILO LARA & TOY SELECTAH AWARD-WINNING MEXICAN PRODUCERS CAMILO LARA (MEXICAN INSTITUTE OF SOUND) AND TOY SELECTAH BRIDGE FRIENDSHIP AND MUSIC FOR THEIR NEW PROJECT, COMPASS, COLLABORATING WITH OVER 90 ARTISTS FROM ACROSS THE WORLD Producers Toy Selectah and Camilo Lara have traveled the globe in the name of music. They have played in front of thousands of fans at important festivals and have performed on some of the world’s most prominent stages. These two DJs who produce, write and make music utilizing creative and high-energy beats with sharp melodic centerpieces, have been colleagues and friends for years. They’ve always known that someday they would work together on a project of a bigger scale. Then one night the musical yarn inside Toy’s head—and laptop—began to spin. Known for his pioneering work as a maestro of the hip hop en español movement, Toy has been traveling the world for the last 15 years DJing, producing and pioneering the New Cumbia and Global Bass phenomena. Toy sent Camilo a series of intricate beats he was saving for something special. Upon hearing the thumps and the bumps of those fast-moving and hypnotic rhythms, Camilo called Toy to say he was ready to begin work. In that moment, a new album concept was born out of their friendship and commitment to uniting the masses through music. They called it COMPASS, a name that refers to both the magnetized instrument and a shortened word for compadres or godfathers, and it would take two years of their lives in between gigs, tours and other projects to come to fruition. -

Minority literature is generally read within a framework of resistance that prioritizes anti-hegemonic and anti-racist writings. I focus on a set of recalcitrant texts, written in the first part of the twentieth century, that do not fit neatly within this framework. My chapters trace an arc from Ameen Rihani’s !e Book of Khalid (1911), which personifies a universal citizen who refuses to be either Arab or American, to Paule Marshall’s Brown Girl, Brownstones (1959), which dramatizes the appeal of white identification for upwardly mobile Barbadian immigrants. I present the first comparative analysis of Afro-Caribbean, Arab, Filipino, Latino, and South Asian immigrant writings. !is archive includes familiar figures such as Claude McKay and William Carlos Williams as well as understudied writers such as Abraham Rihbany and Dalip Singh Saund. -

'Eat Pray Thug: Das Racist's Himanshu Suri Curates Indian Art'
IN THE AIR | February 27, 2015 ‘Eat Pray Thug: Das Racist’s Himanshu Suri Curates Indian Art’ By Anneliese Cooper You probably remember Himanshu Suri, a.k.a. “Heems,” as half of Das Racist, the New York rap group who hit the Internet running with their single “Combination Pizza Hut and Taco Bell” in 2008. From there, they produced three albums’ worth of tracks that took on politics in step with alliterative lists of junk food — a career perhaps best summed up by the cheeky hypnotic loop of a chorus on 2010’s “hahahaha jk?”: “We’re not joking. Just joking, we are joking. Just joking, we’re not joking,” and so on. Now, however, Suri has jumped into the (marginally) more serious business of curating his own gallery show: “Eat Pray Thug,” the same moniker he’s given his forthcoming solo album, which runs through March 10 at Aicon Gallery on Great Jones Street. The multimedia group show of artists with ties to India and Pakistan, including Suri himself, also features a parallel series of live events, including an appearance from Muslim punk band The Kominas on March 7. To hear Suri tell it, the art bent is nothing new: “I feel like a lot of times I would have referred to Das Racist as an art rap project — you know, whatever that means,” he said. “We always had an interest in art, whether we were doing an 8-bit video game slash music video, or a lot of our interviews often we thought of as performance art.” Since the group’s split in 2012, he has released two solo mixtapes, “Nehru Jackets” and “Wild Water Kingdom,” but “Eat Pray Thug” will be his first album.
