Zwischen Spass- und Protestkultur

Zwischen Spass- und Protestkultur

By Thomas Burkhalter (Norient) on January 27, 2011

By Thomas Burkhalter (Norient) on 27 January 2011 in  ACADEMIC

Musiker aus Afrika, Asien und Lateinamerika formulieren selbstbewusste nach-koloniale Positionen. Ihre Parodien auf Exotika und der Fokus auf Gewalt zeigen aber: Alte Abhängigkeiten haben weiterhin Bestand.

Die rasend schnellen Melodie-Pattern dieser neu entdeckten Musik aus Südafrika werden mit der «Minimal Music» von Steve Reich verglichen. Sie klingen aber ganz anders.
