Posted by inanglia on (1850 views)

By Mark Kirby,Electro. Ambient. Psychedelic Dance. These are styles of music that, against all logic, result in cookie cutter soundtracks to television commercials. With a universe of wide-open creativity available the artists of this type of music always come up with the same ol' same ol', musically speaking. And the emotions of vague desire and generic longing ring with the melancholy emptiness that is endemic of our times. And ring hollow. Passion as form and fetish, but empty of blood and soul.

Mark Kirby, In the sixties, Motown Records, with hit songs that influenced pop music from the Beatles and the Rolling Stones on down, and was the soundtrack to the civil rights movement, called itself "the sound of Young America." Hip Hop/R&B is the new sound of Young America. Like the great era of soul music - your father's rhythm and blues - in the sixties and seventies, today's new sound (new jack hip hop urban whatever) is coming from the streets of the cities. Back in the day it was the Detroit sound of Motown, Philly Soul, the southern fried funk of the Stax/Volt label in Memphis and Charley Records in New Orleans. Then in the 80's and early 90's, rap music and hip hop exploded the cultural scene like its predecessors did, from the ground up. Local sounds and local labels found what was really happening. And what was happening came from the creative domes of the producer.
