It seems like (looking back as someone who wasn't born yet) that in the 60s, incorporating "world music" was just something that was done without there being as much heavy-handed intellectualizing about it and no "world music" movement bullshit; it was just using a sitar or Peruvian flutes or whatever on your record.

It wouldn't work for me. Music for Chores in this house has to be: a) familiar b) propulsive a) because if it's new or newish, I will tend to listen to the music closely rather than work, b) to keep my body moving or at least wanting to move, even though I'm about the last person who should ever dance. IMPERIAL BEDROOM does qualify under the a) criterion, but would whiff on b), so it's out. The best dishwashing music I know is My Life With the Thrill Kill Kult's SEXPLOSION!

Not to mention that in the '60s (thank god) no one had coined the completely annoying term "world music" - which implies, insultingly, that all that "other" music can be regarded en masse. It's all just the same anyway, with funny banging-on things and goofy flutes. > And while I like _Graceland,_ I do think that it's fair to > say that the African influences on it are more ornamental > and less fundamental than on _Remain in Light_ (or > whatever), which offended the sensibilities of the "WM" > evangelists. I think my liking for _Graceland_ is in part a reaction of relief that it wasn't another album full of thoughtful, well-written Paul Simon tunes played by sleeping LA session guys. _Hearts and Bones_, for example... The other thing (and another thing that the "WM" designation tends to erase) is that Simon was working with African *pop* music - which was already a promiscuous mongrel of styles and influences. I mean, if the main guy from Ladysmith Black Mambazo had said that, actually, S&G's harmonizing influenced *his* group, I wouldn't be at all surprised. I think Byrne was more interested in African *folk* music than Simon was - and what probably got the WM evangelists (great term btw) all undie-bunched was that Simon treated it sorta like he'd treat, oh, being influenced by something he heard on a Duran Duran record. Cuz you know, "world music" is all pure and stuff and uncorrupted by our evil Western influences, he said sipping a cappuccino and driving off in his Saab. Actually, the whole way that the poles of authenticity/passion and professionalism/commerciality get played out in a racial register is completely fucked. It shows up in the musician/critic dynamic, too, most succinctly expressed by some guy named Scott in an interview where he phrased it as: "just play your guitar out in the cornfield and I'll tell people if you tap some primitive urge." Willie Dixon was every bit the professional and businessman that, say, Benny Goodman was - but you know, the blues is all like passionate and from the heart yadda yadda yadda. This is probably another reason no one got on Zeppelin's case about the non-Western influences: since critics regarded *them* as a bunch of primitive oafs, bringing more bangy-fluty stuff in (even though that's a grossly inaccurate description, of course) didn't raise any eyebrows. I'd be curious how many articles in the '60s mentioning the Indian influence on acts like the Beatles and the Kinks (that one's for you, Miles!) referred to "folk music" or such...when the music that most influenced them was Indian *classical* music, which is about the most highly developed, technical, and difficult stuff around. Give Harrison some credit: when he found that out, he actually tried to *study* it for a while, as opposed to just listening to a record and copying licks (which I'm sure is where it started). Anyway, I think it's interesting that it's usually critics, and seldom musicians, who have any objection to such borrowings, even if they are shallow and essentially ornamental. I think most musicians approach things as a big paintbox: use what you will. - -- ++Jeff++ The Architectural Dance Society http://spanghew.blogspot.com/ ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 2 Dec 2004 08:23:14 -0800 From: Rex Broome Subject: Re: Imperialisin' Bedroom Jeffrey, Miles > > Oh - and there's an 800-pound Beatle in the living room, holding a sitar. > > Is he going to get in a fight with an 800-pound Kink?

The person hosting the show new quite a lot about Robyn. The best part: Robyn videos that I didn't even know existed.

In fact, it had some effects on rock, too. For instance, the music of Philip Glass was profoundly influenced by raga and gamelan, and the music of Steve Reich by African drumming. I believe that Brian Eno and David Byrne were well aware of these trends as well, and there's little doubt that some prog groups sitting in the back of the bus absorbed some of these influences from the classical dweebs in the front. To be fair, there are several levels to this issue, from a musician simply "ripping off" a sound for a touch of exotic "Orientalism" (ala Puccini or The Vapors); to a group absorbing the influences of another music to craft a particular soundscape (ala "Kashmir"), to a musician actually exploring a more hybridized, syncretic form that integrates various influences into something new, like the Talking Heads, Dead Can Dance, or Tan Dun. Anyway, I'm all for cross-pollination and interbreeding. "Remain in Light" is one of my top ten albums of all time. And it works in reverse as well -- look at the great Japanese composer Toru Takemitsu, who combined Asian influences with European atonalism and American jazz; or the very "genre" of reggae itself, a hybrid of more forms than you can shake a spliff at..... - --Quail, in full on pompous mode, who only wishes he could middle-post.... ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 2 Dec 2004 13:16:15 -0600 From: 2fs Subject: Re: Kulturalmusikimperialismo On Thu, 02 Dec 2004 13:15:05 -0500, The Great Quail wrote: > --Quail, in full on pompous mode, who only wishes he could middle-post....
