Mary Fogarty Submitted in partial fulfillment Of the requirements for the degree of Interdisciplinary MA in Popular Culture Brock University St. Catharines, Ontario © November 2006 For my sister, Pauline 111 Acknowledgements The Canada Graduate Scholarship (SSHRC) enabled me to focus full-time on my studies. I would also like to express my deepest gratitude to my committee members: Andy Bennett, Hans A. Skott-Myhre, Nick Baxter-Moore and Will Straw. These scholars have shaped my ideas about this project in crucial ways. I am indebted to Michael Zryd and Francois Lukawecki for their unwavering kindness, encouragement and wisdom over many years. Steve Russell patiently began to teach me basic rules ofgrammar. Barry Grant and Eric Liu provided comments about earlier chapter drafts. Simon Frith, Raquel Rivera, Anthony Kwame Harrison, Kwande Kefentse and John Hunting offered influential suggestions and encouragement in correspondence. Mike Ripmeester, Sarah Matheson, Jeannette Sloniowski, Scott Henderson, Jim Leach, Christie Milliken, David Butz and Dale Bradley also contributed helpful insights in either lectures or conversations. AJ Fashbaugh supplied the soul food and music that kept my body and mind nourished last year. If AJ brought the knowledge then Matt Masters brought the truth. (What a powerful triangle, indeed!) I was exceptionally fortunate to have such noteworthy fellow graduate students. Cole Lewis (my summer writing partner who kept me accountable), Zorianna Zurba, Jana Tomcko, Nylda Gallardo-Lopez, Seth Mulvey and Pauline Fogarty each lent an ear on numerous much needed occasions as I worked through my ideas out loud.

  • Garage House Music Whats up with That
    Garage House Music whats up with that Future funk is a sample-based advancement of Nu-disco which formed out of the Vaporwave scene and genre in the early 2010s. It tends to be more energetic than vaporwave, including elements of French Home, Synth Funk, and making use of Vaporwave modifying techniques. A style coming from the mid- 2010s, often explained as a blend of UK garage and deep home with other elements and strategies from EDM, popularized in late 2014 into 2015, typically mixes deep/metallic/sax hooks with heavy drops somewhat like the ones discovered in future garage. One of the very first house categories with origins embeded in New York and New Jersey. It was named after the Paradise Garage bar in New york city that operated from 1977 to 1987 under the prominent resident DJ Larry Levan. Garage house established along with Chicago home and the outcome was home music sharing its resemblances, affecting each other. One contrast from Chicago house was that the vocals in garage house drew stronger impacts from gospel. Noteworthy examples consist of Adeva and Tony Humphries. Kristine W is an example of a musician involved with garage house outside the genre's origin of birth. Also understood as G-house, it includes very little 808 and 909 drum machine-driven tracks and often sexually explicit lyrics. See likewise: ghettotech, juke house, footwork. It integrates components of Chicago's ghetto house with electro, Detroit techno, Miami bass and UK garage. It includes four-on-the-floor rhythms and is normally faster than a lot of other dance music categories, at approximately 145 to 160 BPM.

  • How Breakdancing Taught Me to Be a Technical Artist
    How breakdancing taught me to be a technical artist Robbert-Jan Brems Technical Artist Codemasters Hello ladies and gentlemen, my name is Robbert-Jan Brems. I'm currently technical artist at Codemasters and here to present you my talk : “How breakdancing taught me to be a technical artist” I only have been working as a professional technical artist in the video game industry for just over a year, but I have been breakdancing for almost nine years, and dancing for almost seventeen. The reason I am telling you this will become more apparent later on. Just out of curiosity, are there any breakdancers in this room? Well, the good news is that you do not need any breakdance related experiences to understand this talk. The main reason why I wanted to do this talk was because I have the feeling that as a person it is really easy to be looking through the same window as everybody else. What I mean with that is when we follow the same route to find knowledge as everybody else, we end up knowing the same things while missing out on other potentially important knowledge. By telling you my life story as a breakdancer and a game developer I want to illustrate how I reflect the knowledge that I obtained through breakdancing to my profession as a technical artist. So, the goal of my talk is to hopefully inspire people to start looking for knowledge by looking at learning from a different perspective. Once upon a time ... I started dancing when I was around 7 years old.

Hip hop dance has taken many forms throughout its four decades ofexistence. This research shows that regardless ofthe form there are three prominent characteristics: performance, personal style, and competition. Although it is possible to isolate the study ofeach ofthese characteristics, they are inseparable when defining hip hop dance. There are several genre-specific performance formats in which hip hop dance is experienced. Personal style includes the individuality and creativity that is celebrated in the hip hop dancer. Competition is the inherent driving force that pushes hip hop dancers to extend the form's physical limitations.

  • Into the Vibe of House Dance
    Into the Vibe of House Dance New social dances have always influenced stage dance—here’s one film that takes you into clubs where House style creates communities of creative individuals who “check their bodies at the door” by Waeli Wang Check Your Body at the Door is a documentary that serves a slice of the underground- club House dance scene in the 1990s, following New York City club dancers into “the vibe.” Dance scholar and producer Sally R. Sommer describes “the vibe” as “a communal force, a feeling, a rhythm that is created by the mix of dancers, the balance of loud music, the effects of darkness and light, the energy. Everything interlocks to produce a powerful sense of liberation.” Reflecting the principle of community built on diversity, this vibe is continually described by dancers in the film as a utopian escape from the nine-to-five grind of their everyday lives. Dance comes first for these beautiful creatures of the night, as the film explores a world where clubs are their sanctuaries. House dance is an electric style of dance formed in the underground scene by its community of dancers. These dancers didn’t train in traditional dance studios but rather at home, in the club, or in an elevator, Brahms “Bravo” LaFortune does in the film. Wherever there is a modicum of space, you dance. Serving as the central narrator, master House dancer Archie Burnett recounts how he practiced in the same spot in front the mirror of his family living room until he wore a hole into the rug.

  • SESSION HANDOUT Latin Pop
    SESSION HANDOUT Latin Pop Lindsey Taylor Zumba Education Specialist, USA SESSION HANDOUT Presenter LINDSEY TAYLOR [email protected] Schedule 5 min – Welcome 55 min – Breakdown 55 min – Master Class 5 min – Wrap Up (Total: 2 hours) Session Objective Learn some of the basic, simple and fun movements of the hot pop rhythms. Instructors can use these movements to go along the exciting music that the popular Latin artists release in their classes. Not only are we going to focus on the basic movements, but the feeling and attitude that should accompany this style of music and dancing. History & Background RICKY MARTIN Born in San Juan, Puerto Rico… Ricky Martin began his career as a young member of the group Menudo. Once he reached the age limit of 18 years old, he went out on his own and became a hot solo artist. His first hit song to reach the ears of the US market was Livin La Vida Loca. Ricky Martin was credited to bringing a growing Latin cultural influence into the mainstream of American pop music. ENRIQUE IGLESIAS Was born in Madrid, Spain to famous singer, Julio Iglesias. While his father was away performing, he secretly pursued a career in music. He borrowed money from his nanny and recorded a demo with one Spanish song and two English songs. He took this demo to his father’s former publicist who promoted the demo CD under the stage name Enrique Martinez. Eventually, his hard work and determination paid off as he is now considered one of the best selling Latin artist of all time.

    1 Topic Page Number General Hip Hop Definitions ………………………………………………. 3 Definitions Related to Specific Dance Styles: ♦ Breaking ………………………………………………………………………. 4 ♦ House ………………………………………………………..………………… 6 ♦ Popping / Locking …………………………………………….….……… 7 2 GENERAL • Battle A competition in which dancers, usually in an open circle surrounded by their competitors, dance their routines, whether improvised (freestyle) or planned. Participants vary in numbers, ranging from one on one to battles of opposing breaking crews, or teams. Winners are determined by outside judges, often with prize money. • • Cypher Open forum, mock exhibitions. Similar to battles, but less emphasis on competition. • Freestyle Improvised Old School routine. • Hip Hop A lifestyle that is comprised of 4 elements: Breaking, MCing, DJing, and Graffiti. Footwear and clothing are part of the hip hop style. Much of it is influenced by the original breaking crews in the 1980’s from the Bronx. Sneakers are usually flat soled and may range from Nike, Adidas, Puma, or Converse. Generally caps are worn for spins, often with padding to protect the head. To optimize the fast footwork and floor moves, the baggy pants favored by hip hop rappers are not seen. o Breaking Breakdancing. o MCing Rapping. MC uses rhyming verses, pre‐written or freestyled, to introduce and praise the DJ or excite the crowd. o DJing Art of the disk jockey. o Graffiti Name for images or lettering scratched, scrawled, painted usually on buildings, trains etc. • Hip Hop dance There are two main categories of hip hop dance: Old School and New School. • New School hip hop dance Newer forms of hip hop music or dance (house, krumping, voguing, street jazz) that emerged in the 1990s • Old School hip hop dance Original forms of hip hop music or dance (breaking, popping, and locking) that evolved in the 1970s and 80s.

  • New Bass Genres Press Release
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE BEATPORT IS EXPANDING ITS BASS GENRES Beatport introduces 140 / Deep Dubstep / Grime, Bass / Club, and Breaks / Breakbeat / UK Bass to its genre pages. BERLIN, DE - February 4th, 2021 - Beatport, the world's number one destination for electronic music, has just announced that it will be introducing two new genres to the store — 140 / Deep Dubstep / Grime and Bass / Club, while also updating its current Breaks sections to Breaks / Breakbeat / UK Bass. By launching these three new and remodeled genre pages on the store, Beatport will give artists, distributors, and labels a new home where their distinct sounds can thrive amongst more like-minded tunes with their own genre page, Top 100 charts, dedicated playlists, store spotlights, a dedicated section in Beatport LINK, and more. To make this expansion possible and help further improve Beatport’s user experience, its Leftfield House / Techno and Leftfield Bass sections will cease to exist. Releases on the Leftfield pages will be recategorized amongst these three new genre sections. We are confident that this change will bring a clearer classification of sounds and greater representation to bass music communities. Represented by labels like DUPLOC, White Peach, Deep Medi Musik, and acts such as Sicaria Sound, Hypho, and Teffa, the new 140 / Deep Dubstep / Grime categorization will host the sonic creations that call back the origins of the Dubstep genre and continue to innovate 140 BPM sound system culture worldwide. Speaking on the importance of distinguishing the two sides of dubstep, DUPLOC's label owner Pieter Grauwels said: "It is fair to say that after the 2010 era, the 'heavy' and 'deep' sides of dubstep have been strongly separated, especially in terms of the communities surrounding the two sides.
