Disco Gives Birth To House Music

Disco Gives Birth To House Music
By Christopher Stout

Disco music gets a bad rap. People decry the genre as a plastic, soulless,
producer-driven music fad that deserves scorn for being empty and unfulfilling.
Many music fans were happy to see disco die in 1980, but the truth is that disco
never passed on. It spawned a new generation of dance music that branched out
and evolved into the global phenomenon known as house music. So how exactly did
disco give birth to house music? Here's the story.

So a gay guy and a black dude walk into a warehouse….just kidding! Well,
actually that's not too far off. Here's the short version.

Larry Levan started spinning disco records together at those crazy Paradise
Garage parties in New York.

Soon after Disco Demolition Night (when white kids killed disco at a White
Sox game), Chicago started developing a new, electronic, drum-machine happy
sound.

Frankie Kunckles brought his gay-friendly crate of thumping disco tracks to
Chicago and the kids got into it. Stuff like "Let No Man Put Asunder" from First
Choice rocked the Warehouse in 1983.

Soulful, bangin' disco tracks collided with what-the-hell-sounding beats
from Jesse Saunders, Farley Jackmaster Funk and a bunch of other DJs, remixers
and record producer types in Chicago.

All the kids wanted to buy the records that were playing at the Warehouse in
Chicago, and after some abbreviating — the house music label was born.

In Detroit, Juan Atkins (/Cybotron), Derrick May and Kevin Saunderson
originated a techno touch alongside the Chicago house music sound.

If you want to learn more, there's a video on it — Pump Up the Volume. This
documentary outlines the history of house music's muddied origins. From swinging
disco tracks to squelching, experimental knob-turning, to the base kick of
techno's first producers, this three-part video has it all.

Pump Up The Volume - History of House Music - Part 1

Part 1 starts with Larry Levan and the Paradise Garage and goes through the
early house music scene in Chicago.

In Part 2, you can learn about how Brits got hold of the stuff and used their
Northern Soul infrastructure and connections in Ibiza to club the music out to
the Euro masses. Detroit's take on house also gets attention.

Part 3 takes you through some of the more recent house music scenes, you know
– all that splinter faction definition label stuff. Anything Goldie says is
hilarious, and Armand Van Helden seems like a pretty chill dude.

Sure, these Google vids don't offer the best presentation. And yeah, some of
the music you'll hear is a bit wack, but this documentary from 2001 is a bridge
that connects the house music of today to the disco classics of yesteryear.
Understanding the details of this evolution will give you a greater appreciation
for the ever-evolving history of dance music.

5 Of The Best Ways To Create Techno

5 Of The Best Ways To Create Techno
By Dominic Hough

If I have to listen to another person saying that their way to create techno is
the best, I swear I am going to scream. I read in a magazine the other day that
someone bought a bit of software because their artist idol had the same
software.

The guy now can not use the $X software. We all knew that was going to be the
answer, but so many people fall into that trap. Software demos are there for a
reason…also what someone likes is never a good system to buy something else.
Personal reviews are just that- personal.

So I am going to list the
5 best ways of creating techno
. They may not be ways that you have heard, and they may not be to your liking,
but they are the best out there at the present time. I am also going to give my
reasons why- rather than say "its great".

So then, first up:

Ableton Live 5,6,7,(take your pick).

I bought number 5 because I wanted to create mix tracks. Now I think Live 5 is
great at that, I don't believe however that it excels in the area to create
techno music. If you want Dj mixes, if you want something that adds great
effects and an extra professional quality to your music…then Live is the one
to go for.

Many DJs use Ableton because you can throw in two completely different MP3 files
and it will beat match those files. All those Mash-Ups on MTV, all those strange
tunes that are two tunes mixed together are using Ableton. It has become
revolutionary. It completely loves loops- you can keep on adding loops to loops
and it will keep on matching them up. Awesome for that, but not to create
techno.

If I was to pick, I would go with whatever Live you can, if you can afford Live
7, go for that, if not, Live 5 does exactly the same job and cane be found for
cheap money.

Reason 4

I have bought Reason and I think that it is a leap in the right direction to
create techno. I think that all tracks should be made with reason sounds. And
unfortunately that is what you find. A Reason track sounds very similar to
another Reason track. This is probably the reason for the refills (sound updates
and injections which can be bought separately).

I am not really putting down reason, but for over $150 you want something that
you can create techno with that sounds like your own work. I mainly use Reason
for its sounds and effects (the distortion and echo effects are great, and
no-one has got a better drum machine yet). I can create a drum beat and then add
the effects. Save off as a WAV file. This can be done within minutes and is
quite easy to do.

Reason is a good system if you are new to the whole music making process, but
you need to work at it. If you don't have a keyboard or have any music skills
then it can be a bit hard going.

Cubase, Sonar, Logic

I tend to find that Cubase, Sonar and Logic are the relative that comes out to
your house only at special occasions. Cubase has been going on for ages, they
invented a whole range of electronic music applications, and were one of the
main music making packages out there. The problem that I have with Cubase and
the other two when it comes down to create techno is that they are complicated
and completely overshadowed by other bits of software. When Reason and Ableton
came on the scene Cubase, Sonar and Logic wasn't in on the game, they never even
had a pair of dice.

FL Studio, Reaper

Now this is the part where you won't particularly hear of. If you created some
piece of software that costs over $100 would you want an upstart coming in on
your turf? No…neither would I. But this is exactly what Fl Studio have done
and more so Reaper.

FL was called
Fruity Loops
, stupid name and sounded very childish, so they changed it to FL. Now this is
where it gets good and bad for FL. They are cheap compared with the others but
they are trying just too hard. Their interface is too stylistic and cluttered.
They are trying to be Reason…plus some more. However, it is a powerful bit of
software.

You will hear some people put it down, but don't listen to them (they probably
bought the expensive titles). It is a little powerhouse, and a cheap one at that
that does far more than people give it credit for.

Reaper
 on the other hand, is a good way to create techno. It is a bargain price
that features alot of bits that rival software have but at ten times the cost.
It has a good reputation, but because it is cheap people tend to shy away from
it and go for more expensive techno makers (which feature the same stuff).

Trackers

Now this is my favourite. Do you know what I was saying about cheap and people
shying away from the software. Well Trackers really wind those people up. Why?

Because trackers are free
. Even better is that they feature everything that you need to create techno.

They use loops, they use samples, they use software synths (VSTs), they use
ReWire (allowing you to use it
with
 another application, say Ableton). Also they don't assume that you need
any music knowledge to start out creating techno. If you are used to Reasons
Drum Machine (ReDrum), then you will be right at home with the main interface.

I have created all my music with Trackers,
and so have a few others
. Calvin Harris made music with Octamed. The James Bond Game music maker created
all the game music tunes using a Tracker.

What you have to realise that this type of application that allows you to create
techno is a threat to alot of people who have spent alot of money of
applications (research, wages etc). So when a cool upstart comes in, they try
and rubbish it.

Look at them, and then look past them. this is the future of creating your own
techno. With free tools that is available to everyone.
