Gewinnspiel: 2 x 2 Karten The Story Of Grandmaster Flash There are lots of stories about the birth of jazz and the beginning of rock n’ roll, but hip-hop has founding fathers: one of them is DJ Grandmaster Flash. In the early 70’s Joseph Saddler was living in the South Bronx and studying electrical engineering. However, Saddler, a native of the Bronx, had a much deeper passion for music; he had been experimenting with his father’s vinyl since he was an adolescent. His knowledge of audio equipment led him to an idea that would revolutionize music: the turntable would become his instrument. The career of DJ Grandmaster Flash began in the Bronx with neighborhood block parties that essentially were the start of hip-hop—the dawn of a musical genre. He was the first DJ to physically lay his hands on the vinyl and manipulate it in a backward, forward or counterclockwise motion, when most DJs simply handled the record by the edges, put down the tone arm, and let it play. Those DJs let the tone arm guide their music, but Flash marked up the body of the vinyl with crayon, fluorescent pen, and grease pencil—and those markings became his compass. He invented the Quick Mix Theory, which included techniques such as the double-back, back-door, back-spin, and phasing. This allowed a DJ to make music by touching the record and gauging its revolutions to make his own beat and his own music. Flash’s template grew to include cuttin’, which, in turn, spawned scratching, transforming, the Clock Theory and the like. He laid the groundwork for everything a hip hop DJ can do with a record today, other than just letting it play. What we call a DJ today is a role that Flash invented. By the end of the 70s, Flash had started another trend that became a hallmark of hip-hop: emcees asked to rap over his beats. Before long, he started his own group, Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five. Their reputation grew up around the way the group traded off and blended their lyrics with Flash’s unrivaled skills as a DJ and his acrobatic performances—spinning and cutting vinyl with his fingers, toes, elbows, and any object at hand. Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five went Platinum with their single, “The Message.” Meanwhile, the single “The Adventures of Grandmaster Flash on the Wheels of Steel” introduced hip hop DJing to a larger listening audience than it had ever known before; it became the first DJ composition to be recorded by a DJ. The group’s fame only grew with “Superappin,” “Freedom,” “Larry’s Dance Theme,” and “You Know What Time It Is.” Punk and new wave fans were introduced to Flash through Blondie, who immortalized him in their hit, “Rapture.” The rock n’ roll establishment also recognized Flash with an honor no one else in hip hop has received: Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five became the first hip hop group ever inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2007. Flash is also the only hip hop DJ to ever receive that honor. By the time the 90s rolled around, Flash was hand picked by Chris Rock to spend five years as the music director for his groundbreaking HBO series, The Chris Rock Show. More recently, Flash has played for audiences as large as the Super Bowl and as elite as Queen Elizabeth II of Great Britain. Today, Flash has a weekly show on Sirius Radio, The Flash Mash on Hot Jams 50. The show is a kaleidoscopic mash-up of Flash’s tastes, spanning just about any genre from just about any corner of the world; it airs on Saturdays from 5-8pm. On top of his induction to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, Flash has been the recipient of many awards, including VH1 Hip Hop Honors; The Icon Award from BET in honor of his contribution to hip hop as a DJ; The Lifetime Achievement Award from the RIAA; and Bill Gates’ Vanguard Award. |

... wo fange ich überhaupt an? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sleepy.gif)
... ... ... ... ... ... Wirklich was soll ich nun schreiben? ... ... ... ... Leute ich war noch nie so enttäuscht, ne enttäuscht ist nicht das richtige Wort dafür, entsetzt! Was ist nur aus dem Mixmaster geworden, dem Godfather des DJns?! Dem Erfinder des Crossfaders?! Dem Master of Turntablelism?! Dem Hip Hop Urgestein? Sorry aber das was er vor ein paar Stunden in der Pratersauna angefangen hat bzw. wahrscheinlich immer noch gerade macht war einfach nur Scheiße! Sogar der Support hats ur nicht gepackt was der für eine Schwachsinnsshow abgeliefert hat. Das war ne reine Ö3-Fete! Mehr kann man dazu nicht sagen. Und wieder ist ein weiteres Idol für mich gestorben. Ich könnt kotzen! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/puke.gif) Wirklich. Ich glaub er hat nicht einmal ein einziges mal richtig gecuttet, gejuggelt geschweige einen Track endlos in die Länge gezogen. Ich habe diverse alte sets und videos von "The Legend" gehört und gesehen. Feinstens! Das heute Nacht hingegen war Ballermann! Best of Bravo Hits. Call it what you want. Mit Hip Hop hat das rein gar nix mehr zu tun. Ehrlich für das sind mir 10 bzw. 13 € zu schade. Der Beitrag wurde von Mr T. bearbeitet: 28 Oct 2011, 02:30 |
