"Rapping, Remembering, Destabilizing: Researching Hip-Hop and / as Memory" (Seminar)

Dozent/in: Thomas Sebastian Köhn

Termin:
wöchentlich | Mittwoch | 12:15 - 13:45 | 14.10.2020 - 27.01.2021 | C 16.310 Musik

Inhalt: On the one hand, the seminar addresses hip hop as a historical and current social phenomenon. Musical aspects are understood as being embedded in diverse cultural, political and creative practices that vary globally, locally and over time. On the other hand, the seminar will work out connections between the research field called cultural memory studies and hip-hop studies. In this context, questions will be asked about what role memories play in hip-hop, e.g. through lyrics, samples, events or in different online communities (see for example the track ‘Never Again’ by Jewish-American hip-hop artist Remedy). In the seminar, we will put a special emphasis on training to conduct our own research. We will apply various interdisciplinary theoretical and methodological approaches and combine different fields such as musicologies, ethnology, sociology, music and video analysis, literary analysis and memory studies. Our results will be presented in different forms on the blog researchingpopularmusic.com.

Inhalt: From Thomas Edison’s phonograph to modern instrument libraries, popular music has been inextricably linked with music technology. This seminar will explore technological advancements and the effects they had on popular music production and genre aesthetics. There will be lecture elements (theoretical, and practical demonstration) on the history of production practices in general and of particular genres like alternative rock, metal, reggae and EDM – from the 1970s to the most recent histories. Open-format, group-centred analyses and joint discussion will look at various technologies and genres based on the group’s interest and expertise. Production within this seminar is defined widely and can comprise live music (i.e. music festivals, dancehalls/sound systems).
