Hip-Hop + Techno

[tocsin]

Hehe. "Drop it like it's Squat." ;) But, nah, not what I was getting at either. I was kinda saying more on the lines of what Dave was mentioning, only I'm more curious to hear what would come about if different artists from techno and hip-hop got together in the studio and ****ed around. So, it would be less of a hip-artist looking for techno sounds or vice versa and, rather, kind of a bastard child of each.

seb marx did a couple of good things with hiphop vocals over his live set at jakN last month.

used a krsone rap/accapella over a techno track and also beasty boys "intergalactic" vocals......nice stuff i must say and not too over the top, i thought it worked well.

Wait till you hear Globe Warmer 2
We`re finishing the mastering this week for imminent pressing.
Sebs done some more hybrid madness again.

and you can hear it in the bassline of " milkshake " , most of missy elliots
" this is not a test " lp

good point. missy elliot's productions are, often, really impressive. on a more lowbrow tip, you hear techno influences in some southern rap (e.g. crime mobb). i think it filters to them via missy and timbaland...i don't think lil jon is a big plastikman fan!

the gunjack project is VERY hip hop. the production techniques and genral feeling come from my hip hop background. i think ppl fail to realize just how closely related these two music forms actually, already are!

Precisely.

i tend to think most hip hop heads hate electronic music

hmm...is acid rap forthcoming?? :lol:

speaking of techno-hop-hop connections...a friend of mine once found a record from 1989 at a store in detroit by a female rapper named smiley. the album was called something stupid like "smiley but not friendly." and you know who was credited as the producer? jeff mills!

besides...when juan atkins released "cosmic cars," it was listened to by b-boys in the bronx.

i find it funny how most hip hop heads even african americans call techno that white boy shit when the people who bought it about are well. we all know. its collective ignorance

[dirty_bass]

I will say a lot of the really cool Hip Hop I like, beats techno for it`s beat construction.
The beats in some hip hop are less obvious, but still have tons of power in them.
I think techno could definitely do with this influence.

this is off the topic, yes, but it's astounding to me how few people know that techno is, originally, african american music. it's universal music now, but its black roots have not disappeared...

[dirty_bass]

It`s also heavily influenced by the avante garde, like craftwork, and the early industrial experimentalists. It`s not all african at it`s root.

[The Overfiend]

i agree with both of you, i was just pointing out as some already have as to the reason why some hip hop heads do not listen to techno, quote aesop rock in a dvd i saw the other day saying what music do white people have to be proud of country and techno and for that he would like to hang his head in shame...............little did he friggin know. and no im not black so its no pride issue ok.

no, no...i didn't mean that the roots of techno were african american, but that techno-at-its-root was african american. as in, the music was made originally by african americans...and they, of course, listened primarily (but not exclusively) to european dance and electronic music. that's the rare genius of it...and early chicago house as well. it was cross-cultural...

No probs mate.
For all our silly banter on here, I think we`ve got pretty much the same attitude, and neither of us is half as gobby as we are on here.
I`ll help you boys out any time.
