书目名称 | Sound Clash | 副标题 | Jamaican Dancehall C | 编辑 | Carolyn Cooper | 视频video | | 图书封面 |  | 描述 | Megawattage sound systems have blasted the electronically-enhanced riddims and tongue-twisting lyrics of Jamaica‘s dancehall DJs across the globe. This high-energy raggamuffin music is often dismissed by old-school roots reggae fans as a raucous degeneration of classic Jamaican popular music. In this provocative study of dancehall culture, Cooper offers a sympathetic account of the philosophy of a wide range of dancehall DJs: Shabba Ranks, Lady Saw, Ninjaman, Capleton, Buju Banton, Anthony B and Apache Indian. Cooper also demonstrates the ways in which the language of dancehall culture, often devalued as mere ‘noise,‘ articulates a complex understanding of the border clashes which characterize Jamaican society, and analyzes the sound clashes that erupt in the movement of Jamaican dancehall culture across national borders. | 出版日期 | Book 2004 | 关键词 | culture; energy; society | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1057/9781403982605 | isbn_softcover | 978-1-4039-6424-3 | isbn_ebook | 978-1-4039-8260-5 | copyright | Carolyn Cooper 2004 |
