    "Disco Madness: Walter Gibbons and the Legacy of Turntablism and Remixology" Tim Lawrence Journal of Popular Music Studies, 20, 3, 2008, 276-329 This story begins with a skinny white DJ mixing between the breaks of obscure Motown records with the ambidextrous intensity of an octopus on speed. It closes with the same man, debilitated and virtually blind, fumbling for gospel records as he spins up eternal hope in a fading dusk. In between Walter Gibbons worked as a cutting-edge discotheque DJ and remixer who, thanks to his pioneering reel-to-reel edits and contribution to the development of the twelve-inch single, revealed the immanent synergy that ran between the dance floor, the DJ booth and the recording studio. Gibbons started to mix between the breaks of disco and funk records around the same time DJ Kool Herc began to test the technique in the Bronx, and the disco spinner was as technically precise as Grandmaster Flash, even if the spinners directed their deft handiwork to differing ends. It would make sense, then, for Gibbons to be considered alongside these and other towering figures in the pantheon of turntablism, but he died in virtual anonymity in 1994, and his groundbreaking contribution to the intersecting arts of DJing and remixology has yet to register beyond disco aficionados.1 There is nothing mysterious about Gibbons's low profile. First, he operated in a culture that has been ridiculed and reviled since the "disco sucks" backlash peaked with the symbolic detonation of 40,000 disco records in the summer of 1979.

  • Baby Raves: Youth, Adulthood and Ageing in Contemporary British EDM Culture
    Baby Raves: Youth, Adulthood and Ageing in Contemporary British EDM Culture Feature Article Zoe Armour De Montfort University (UK) Abstract This article begins with a reconsideration of the parameters ofage in translocal EDM sound system and (super)club culture through the conceptualisation of a fluid multigenerationality in which attendees at EDM-events encompass a spectrum of ages from 0–75 years. Since the 1980s, it remains the case that the culture is fuelled through a constant influx of newcomers who are predominantly emerging youth, yet there are post-youth members in middle adulthood and later life that are also a growing body that continues to attend EDM-events. In this context, the baby rave initiative (2004–present) has capitalised on a gap in the family entertainment market and created a new chapter in (super)club and festival culture. I argue that the event is a catalyst for live heritage in which the accompanying children (aged from 0–12 years) temporarily become the beneficiaries of their parent’s attendee heritage and performance of an unauthored heritage. Keywords: fluid multigenerationality, EDM-family, baby rave, live heritage, unauthored heritage Zoe Armour is completing a PhD in electronic dance music culture. Her work is interdisciplinary and draws from the fields of cultural sociology, popular music, memory studies, media and communication and film. She is the author of two book chapters on Ageing Clubbers and the Internet and the British Free Party Counterculture in the late 1990s. She is a member of the Media Discourse Centre, IASPM and follows the group for Subcultures, Popular Music and Social Change.

    BELKACEM MEZIANE NIGHT FEVER 100 HITS QUI ONT FAIT LE DISCO LE MOT ET LE RESTE BELKACEM MEZIANE NIGHT FEVER 100 hits qui ont fait le disco le mot et le reste 2020 À mes disco queens, Karelle & Chaka INTRODUCTION « GOING BACK TO MY ROOTS » Odyssey Lorsqu’on étudie la chronologie des courants successifs de la musique noire américaine du xxe siècle, nombreux sont les ouvrages, thèses universitaires, documentaires et autres sources qui omettent le disco ou qui minimisent sa place dans cette évolution. Évidemment, ce n’est pas systématique mais assez fréquent pour être remarqué. Au funk, apparu à la fin des années soixante sur les bases musicales de la soul, succéderait immédiatement le hip-hop alors qu’entre-temps, la planète entière danse sur le beat disco. Cette lecture pointe du doigt la conception que certains se font de la musique noire et amène quelques questions : le disco fait-il partie de l’histoire de la musique noire et quels liens entretient-il avec le blues, le jazz, le gospel, le rhythm’n’blues, la soul ou le funk qui sont les grandes étapes de cette great black music ? L’histoire américaine, marquée par l’esclavage et la ségrégation, est à l’origine de cette distinction entre musique noire et musique blanche. Par musique noire, on désigne généralement des styles développés et représentés en majorité par des chanteurs, musi- ciens, compositeurs ou producteurs noirs. La réalité est en fait plus complexe et l’on ne peut pas se baser uniquement sur la couleur de peau pour définir un courant.
