(313) Hip Hop and Techno
I think it is a 'recurring theme' you can identify. I've been very fortunate to interview many big names in hip-hop and discuss it with people across the spectrum of that scene and it comes up a lot. I realise there is a group also who like hip-hop and listen to different styles. These people you mention are different. I am talking of the purist core. I know producers like Stacey try and share their music by talking to artists from the urban ranks and they come up up against the same kind of resistance. I think he met Jay-Z once. I find the same prejudice in techno, mind. Hip-hop is a big world and it's pretty much pop culture now, but as I have reiterated I am talking of the hardcore purist element at its core - which probably doesn't feel totally comfortable with the 'crossover' phenom anyway. > I don't know.

The Black east coast, for reasons I don't completely understand, has always looked to hiphop as its dance music of choice. Not house (exception perhaps being the hip-house craze), not techno. Much more diversity in spots like detroit and chicago, largely because they'd created musics of their own that were played alongside of hiphop. peace lks

More precisely, that sample is from Tracks on the Rocks vol. 2, which was credited to Bangalter alone, not with his Daft Punk partner, Guy Manuel De Homem-Christo. I also heard a rumor that as a result of sampling the tune, Bangalter requested Jay Dee's assistance on a future work, rather than imposing a lawsuit for royalties.

RE: (313) Hip Hop and Techno (was 8-Mile)
Bit late in the day to throw in my 2 cents, but the way I understand it is this: Rave is a term rarely in use these days in the UK, and then it is usually just used as a verb, ie to go raving. Its use as a noun to describe the large-scale semi-legal/illegal outdoor events that occurred in the late 80s/early 90s has largely dropped out of use in England because these events don't really happen anymore (thanks to the Criminal Justice Bill), except as large corporate sponsored events. It was also used to describe the music played at some of these events, a sound that diversified into jungle and happy hardcore. I think many people also used it to describe the more commercial music that was coming out - tunes like Smart Es' Sesam-E Street and Prodigy's Charly (incidentally Mills dropped this in his recent set at The End in London). I think rave is now seen primarily as an embarrassing word that parents and authority figures use to decribe something that the kids get up to. Now that large scale raves are happening in the US, it seems that the word has had something of a renaissance, but only in the US. -Original Message- From: glyph1001 [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, November 12, 2002 3:45 PM Cc: 313@hyperreal.org Subject: Re: (313) Hip Hop and Techno (was 8-Mile) I will have to agree with robin here and I'm from the US.

Re: (313) Hip Hop and Techno
Slum Village are taking it somewhere, same with The Roots, and even Black Eyed Peas, and all have taken inspiration from electronic music, in the latter two cases drum 'n' bass, but I think that a lot of underground hip-hop is caught up in a romantic past. Take for example People Under The Stairs. Ugly Duckling. It's cool, conscious, fun, but is it really innovative? They're not open to fresh influences. There's actually more innovation in the more commercial sphere, production-wise, with the likes of Timbaland and The Neptunes. I don't think Puff is defining commercial hip-hop at the moment, and hasn't for a couple of years at least. I think he's plateaued and been superseded by Irv Gotti, etc. The hip-hop underground is probably bigger than it ever was, it exists separately from commercial hip-hop. Those bands do better as live touring acts. You have to remember that Eminem was very much part of the underground pre-Dre. Of course the headz will always say Infinite was his best work! :) > I don't know.

> also finkstroung r somewhere between hip hop and techno ooh, while were talking of fusions of hip hop and electronic music, may I recommend the new machine drum album "urban biology" and the new morris nightingale vs. kristuit salu album "my mines i". Both on the miami label merck ( http://www.m3rck.net/ ). Machine drum is playing live at the warp x-mas pool party at aquarium on 20/12 in london too. Smallfish have stocks of the new album I think. IMHO much more soulful than prefuse and funkstorung. also the new prefuse 73 / mos def 12" is rather good. . [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Count me in on that category. I can't really stand puffy and his camp (G-Dep and Craig Mack being the lone exceptions... sometimes).

Yeah. Pump Up the Volume 3 covers this all pretty well I think. Time to fire it back up? :) Re: Cyclone and Stewart's comments about hip hop as an entry point, I think it's safe to say that techno has a number of different 'gateway' styles, from hip hop to industrial to trance or whatever you may be exposed to that gets you into the beat, since most people don't hear techno right outta pop music. While I can see that many techno converts have come from a hip hop background, I'd be inclined to side with Cyclone that especially today, it's not terribly in-favor in the hip hop world. Even in the past this is true. The hip hop scene is just so much bigger than the electronic music scene (at least in the states, which is kind of what this discussion was about) that if a few people 'convert' to techno it doesn't mean much about the mass attitude towards techno in the hip hop scene. Also, I think you'll find more people who are into techno that like hip hop than vice versa. You could probably even say that more white hip hop fans come to techno than other ethnicities. Whatever, my point was that hip hop culture *can* be pretty exclusive, and it's just as inane there as here...

Re: (313) Hip Hop and Techno (was 8-Mile)
I will have to agree with robin here and I'm from the US. I read this article in an old DJ Magazine that talked about "The Summer of Love" and there was a part where someone would say (I'm paraphrasing here) "you gonna rave? or have you raved yet?" which meant taking a hit of e and going to a party and "rave" like mad. Indeed the Acid House and Rave are one of the same. \ I suggest doing some research at the mag's website. robin pinning wrote: The rave scene started over there, as their answer to our Hip-Hop scene. don't think that is truethe rave scene developed out of the northern soul scene (from what i've read)...original rave music was acid house (the other key ingredient to raves was the rapid take up of ecstacy at the same time) I don't agree that the Acid House Scene was the Rave Scene. I think it was definetly "proto-rave", but I don't feel RAVE happened until after the Acid House Raids in 1989, and 1/2 the promoters went underground into the warehouses.

Re: (313) Hip Hop and Techno (was 8-Mile)
Myself and the large majority of my close friends that are into techno were originally goose jacket, Public Enemy patch, Levi 501, kangol and fat laced addidas wearing hip hop heads in our early teens, though I dont listen to that much these days I still dust off the old BDP, PE, Stetsasonic albums from time to time. I think a lot of Hip Hop heads in the UK got into the whole rave scene over here in the late eighties/early nineties as being into hip hop got socially quite boring. Apart from the odd concert, unless you lived in London there wasn't much to do other than hang around amusement arcades and get into trouble. The whole rave/house scene was a lot more inviting and a lot of people discovered techno through that. Dont know about the young hip hop heads these days, but I mean we were listening to Cybertron before we had even heard of Chuck D, so it wasn't really that much of a leap. Though I do remember seeing Public Enemy live around the time of Nation of Millions and hearing Chuck D pan acid house as total crap.
