Pour Diana, Georges et Elissa. “Les gens pour lesquels le reggae a été inventé ne l ’ont jamais décomposé en styles distincts. Non. C ’est une musique qui vient de l ’esclavage, en passant par le colo nialisme, donc c ’est bien plus qu ’un simple style. Venant par la route de la patate ou la route des bananes ou les flancs des collines, les gens chantent. Pour se débar - rasser de leurs frustrations et élever leur esprit, les gens chan tent. C’était aussi une forme de distraction pendant les week-ends, que ce soit à l ’église ou à une “neuf nuits ” , ou simplement devant . Une veillée caribéenne se pro longe ta maison, tu allais te mettre à chanter. Tu chantes en taillant ta traditionnellement pen dant neuf nuits. (Toutes les notes sont du traducteur.) haie, tu chantes en bêchant ton jardin. La musique est une vibra- tion. C ’est un mode de vie. Il faut bien comprendre que ce n ’est pas seulement cette musique que l ’on joue : c ’est un peuple … une culture … une attitude, un mode de vie qui émane d ’un peuple. ” Bass Culture : quand le reggae était roi a été une véritable aventure. Elle m’a emmené en Jamaïque, à New York, à Miami, dans certains quartiers de Londres dont j’avais oublié l’existence, et dans les recoins les plus profonds de ma collection de disques.

  • The Funky Diaspora
    The Funky Diaspora: The Diffusion of Soul and Funk Music across The Caribbean and Latin America Thomas Fawcett XXVII Annual ILLASA Student Conference Feb. 1-3, 2007 Introduction In 1972, a British band made up of nine West Indian immigrants recorded a funk song infused with Caribbean percussion called “The Message.” The band was Cymande, whose members were born in Jamaica, Guyana, and St. Vincent before moving to England between 1958 and 1970.1 In 1973, a year after Cymande recorded “The Message,” the song was reworked by a Panamanian funk band called Los Fabulosos Festivales. The Festivales titled their fuzzed-out, guitar-heavy version “El Mensaje.” A year later the song was covered again, this time slowed down to a crawl and set to a reggae beat and performed by Jamaican singer Tinga Stewart. This example places soul and funk music in a global context and shows that songs were remade, reworked and reinvented across the African diaspora. It also raises issues of migration, language and the power of music to connect distinct communities of the African diaspora. Soul and funk music of the 1960s and 1970s is widely seen as belonging strictly in a U.S. context. This paper will argue that soul and funk music was actually a transnational and multilingual phenomenon that disseminated across Latin America, the Caribbean and beyond. Soul and funk was copied and reinvented in a wide array of Latin American and Caribbean countries including Brazil, Panama, Jamaica, Belize, Peru and the Bahamas. This paper will focus on the music of the U.S., Brazil, Panama and Jamaica while highlighting the political consciousness of soul and funk music.

Editor's Dub Dear Reader After leafing through and seeing the lack of reggae coverage in the five music magazines I recently picked up in the Truck Shop on Cowley Road, re-emphasised for me, the need to produce one: a regular channel, for the celebration of Roots Reggae music. So here’s the first issue, of the first roots reggae magazine, for the Thames Valley region. It’s envisaged as a quarterly production, focusing on Oxfordshire, Buckinghamshire and Berkshire. As well as a channel for roots reggae music, I hope this publication will also be a source of knowledge for Black History – and a showcase for local and regional talents: the poets, artists, writers and budding journalists. Salutes go to Gary Constant, Helen Baillie, Dan I Cameron and John Green: for the early boost they gave this initiative - the Dub Visionaries! To the Oxford City Council Culture Fund, Name It Youth Project, Alex and Jules Dalitz, Nick Barber and Sasha East.

  • Chanting up Zion: Reggae As Productive Mechanism for Repatriated Rastafari In
    Chanting up Zion: Reggae as Productive Mechanism for Repatriated Rastafari in Ethiopia David Aarons A dissertation submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2017 Reading Committee: Shannon Dudley, Chair Giulia Bonacci Katell Morand Christina Sunardi Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Music i @Copyright 2017 David Aarons ii University of Washington Abstract Chanting up Zion: Reggae as Productive Mechanism for Repatriated Rastafari in Ethiopia David Aarons Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Shannon Dudley Ethnomusicology Since the 1960s, Rastafari from Jamaica and other countries have been “returning” to Ethiopia in the belief that it is their Promised Land, Zion. Based on extensive ethnographic research in Ethiopia between 2015 and 2017, this project examines the ways in which repatriated Rastafari use music to transform their Promised Land into a reality amidst various challenges. Since they are denied legal citizenship, Rastafari deploy reggae in creative and strategic ways to gain cultural citizenship and recognition in Ethiopia. This research examines how reggae music operates as a productive mechanism, that is, how human actors use music to produce social and tangible phenomena in the world. Combining theories on music’s productive capabilities with Rastafari ideologies on word-sound, this research further seeks to provide deeper insight into the ways Rastafari effect change through performative arts. I examine how Rastafari mobilize particular discourses that both challenge and reproduce hegemonic systems, creating space for themselves in Ethiopia through music. Rastafari use reggae in strategic ways to insert themselves into the contested national narratives of Ethiopia, and participate in the practice of space-making in Addis Ababa and Shashemene through sound projects.
