DJ developed with disco. With the development of DJ, the meaning has been completely clear. DJ is a technical term, which is the abbreviation of Disc Jockey, not a song. Those songs are actually electronic music or electronic dance music. There is a noun DJ in the super-running game, and there is also a DJ company with the same name. DJ, mostly refers to a live disc player such as a nightclub. DJ is a profession, not music. Dj belongs to a kind of hip-hop culture. Hip-hop is a party hosted by DJ Kool Herc in Bronx Park on August 1973 1 1. The four manifestations of hip-hop culture include rap (rhythmic speech), b-boying (street dance) and DJ (playing records and singing).
DJ undoubtedly plays a very important role in the field of hip hop. Because both B-Boy and MC need DJ assistance, otherwise they are blind. 1967 In the United States, there is a legendary figure who immigrated from Kingston, Jamaica to the Bronx, new york, USA, and his name is Kool Herl. At that time, he was the first to put two turntables and a mixer together, creating a unique "scraping" action. So it attracted many people to enjoy his performance in the street. However, he unfortunately lost his hands in a bar fight, and Herl, known as the "father of hip-hop", had to stop performing and quit the music scene. Subsequently, more DJs became famous one after another, such as Afrika Bambaataa and Grand Master Flash. They put their DJ ideas and advanced skills into music production, thus producing dance music that was popular in the streets at that time, such as Plant Rock and Message. Therefore, the development of DJ is not just a skill of mixing or grasping. In the trend of recent years, DJs have crossed into the field of music production, and many of them are individual producers, such as the band Pete Rock &; C.L. Smooth, Pete Rock is the DJ and producer of the band, and so is DJ Premier of Gangstarr. The role of domestic DJ has never been taken seriously, because the domestic music industry thinks that DJ has no formal musical literacy, so his works can't be put on the table; But in any case, DJ's own ideas and profound skills are "beliefs" worthy of continuing with hunger. In the impression of ordinary people, the common "DJ" is often one hand brushing vinyl records (LP) back and forth on the turntable, and the other hand repeatedly switching on the cross fader on the mixer (controlling the sound of the left and right turntable). In fact, the correct name of this action is "scraping". Scratch is a combination that is similar to singing in rhythm or in a song, and then increases its variability. But there is not only "stroke", but also a technique of changing at a certain rhythm with two identical or different records, which is called "playing". These two techniques are commonly used in Hip Hop DJ. But in Scratch Music and Fight, there is no certain norm, and each DJ has his own style. In fact, they have been popular abroad for more than 20 years and have become a special culture. There are also some competitions, large and small, and one of them is called "DMC". It originated in the early 1980s, and a group of DJ clubs (similar to guilds) who love music were called "DJ Mix Club". Then the champions from all regions compete for the world championship together (similar to the Olympic Games competition mode). In the competition, every DJ always shows his best and latest skills in the competition. There are also many well-known DJs in D.M.C, such as "Mixmaster Mike", "Q-Bear" and "DJ Tommy" in Hong Kong. This type of DJ has always existed in China, but the space for their development is too small and the number of people involved is relatively less and less. So no matter what kind of DJ, without the support of a group, it is impossible for them to develop and eventually form a new culture. Country music appeared in the 1920s. It originated from the folk music of South China agriculture in the United States, and was first developed under the influence of traditional British folk songs. The earliest country music is the traditional Hilby music, with simple tunes, stable rhythm and strong narrative. Different from the sad pop songs in the city, it has a strong local flavor.
Folk songs began to blend into the mainstream of American pop music, and the earliest country singers appeared, such as James Rogers (1897 ~ 1933), Bruce, Yodels and folk songs. They were regarded as pioneers of country music and were named "country music".
The Disabled Children's Family (composed of AJvin Carter, 189 1-l960, his wife and brother-in-law) won the audience's love with its comfortable and harmonious style, focusing on themes such as home, God and faith. For artists like the Carters, singing is just an amateur way to make a living. But in the primary stage of country music, they did make great contributions to the development of country music, and also left valuable recording materials for early country music.
Many country musicians have made great contributions to bringing country music out of the south or midwest, among which hank williams is the most important. Jambalaya is Williams' most famous masterpiece and has become a world-famous classic song.
Since the 1990s, country music has been fully integrated into the mainstream of pop music. Of course, in this process, its popular color becomes more intense. By the end of the 20th century, there was almost no music without pop colors, on the contrary, it would be considered "different". Another feature is that it has become a very common phenomenon that singers and their songs win prizes across the list, and few people insist on one position. This is the result of commercial speculation. Economic leverage is playing a regulatory role, and people are willing to stoop for five buckets of rice, so following the trend has become a fashion. In 1990s, country music became more and more global, which was related to economic globalization. The world has become a global village, and "walking around" is no longer unusual. Country music is no longer a patent in the United States, and can be heard in every corner of the world, but it is less original and more contemporary. This brand-new country music has become the local accent of the villagers of the earth. There is no doubt that most singers in this period are cross-century. Young and full of hope, they are pioneers in the new century.
