42、方面:霹雳舞、涂鸦艺术和另外两种嬉蹦乐音乐流行音乐和说唱乐。说唱乐也被称为节目主持(源于 master of ceremonies 这个词语)。20 世纪 70 年代的街区舞会上,音乐主栏目导引教材助读解疑清障知能演练轻松闯关自学导引语篇理解Module 4 Music Born in America持人播放很多灵乐,他们注意到大家很喜欢乐曲中的打击乐,因为打击乐非常适合跳舞。于是,他们开始重复播放这些打击乐。这是牙买加音乐主持人使用的一种技艺。纽约有许多牙买加人,他们从自己的国家带去了有关音乐的理念。起初,他们播放许多雷盖音乐。栏目导引教材助读解疑清障知能演练轻松闯关自学导引语篇理解Modu
43、le 4 Music Born in America第二部分嬉蹦乐的重大突破是什么?埃尔克,当时最受欢迎的牙买加音乐主持人之一,注意到纽约观众并不真正喜欢雷盖音乐,于是他开始播放其他种类的音乐,其中包括摇滚乐和迪斯科音乐。这些打击乐通常很短,但埃尔克和其他音乐主持人利用摆放在一起的两个唱盘将两盘录音反复播放,使打击乐播放时间更长。有些音乐主持人开始边放音乐边说话、叫喊。大声喊叫的音乐主持人就被称为节目主持人。这样,被称为“说唱乐”的音乐风格就诞生了。栏目导引教材助读解疑清障知能演练轻松闯关自学导引语篇理解Module 4 Music Born in America起初,这些节目主持人常常表演数
44、小时,重复同样的单词和短语,然后即兴表演。后来他们尝试用不同的发音和节奏方法,所使用的押韵词汇经常是来自非洲裔美国人的文化。与此同时,人们开始在街区舞会上跳霹雳舞。节目主持人达克斯达回忆他第一次听到说唱歌手唱歌时的情景。“我一听到它,”他说,“就知道这是一种全新的音乐。”栏目导引教材助读解疑清障知能演练轻松闯关自学导引语篇理解Module 4 Music Born in America第三部分嬉蹦乐为什么会如此成功?有两个主要原因。首先,嬉蹦乐的成本低廉,并且容易操作你只需要两个唱盘和一个麦克风。使用已录制好的歌曲,谁都可以做节目主持人。其次,人们厌倦了当时的流行音乐20 世纪 70 年代中期
45、迪斯科音乐和摇滚乐都在走下坡路。然而,迪斯科音乐节奏强烈,跳舞容易跟上节奏。嬉蹦乐利用了那一点,为那些不喜欢迪斯科的人们提供了别样的迪斯科音乐!栏目导引教材助读解疑清障知能演练轻松闯关自学导引语篇理解Module 4 Music Born in America第四部分说唱歌手是怎样录制歌曲的?说唱艺术家初次录制音乐时,演奏师先在录音室里录制背景音乐(一种不加歌声的音乐),过后说唱歌手再加进歌声。下一代的说唱歌手在演奏师演奏的同时录制歌声。纽约在 20 世纪 80 年代是嬉蹦乐之都,其风格被称为东海岸说唱乐。这种风格很快就传到了美国其他地区。在加利福尼亚有许多西海岸说唱歌手。在佛罗里达州的迈阿密
46、,受古巴和波多黎各音乐的强烈影响,产生了一种新的说唱风格。栏目导引教材助读解疑清障知能演练轻松闯关自学导引语篇理解Module 4 Music Born in America20 世纪 80 年代后期,嬉蹦音乐传到了世界各地日本、印度以及欧洲的许多地区,特别是法国、比利时和意大利。在英国,一种被称为迷幻舞曲的新的音乐形式出现了,它融合了爵士乐、嬉蹦乐和电子音乐(例如,电脑上播放的音乐)。栏目导引教材助读解疑清障知能演练轻松闯关自学导引语篇理解Module 4 Music Born in America栏目导引教材助读解疑清障知能演练轻松闯关自学导引语篇理解Module 4 Music Born in America按ESC键退出全屏播放本部分内容讲解结束
