music question...sort of

[Courtney]

Cyberculture has produced which of the following muiscal genres?



A. Rave

B. Electronic

C. Techno

D. All of the above


This was in one of my soc quizzes.......

[Courtney]

ps the answer is all of the above but I always thought electronic was the main genre and they all fell in it...or something....

[fritz]

If B is true, and A and C are subsets of B, then D is correct. Sounds more like a math question.

THIS QUESTION MAKES ME WANT TO PUNCH YOUR PROF RIGHT IN THE FUCKING MOUTH l

[miss.myra]

the word 'cyberculture' makes me want to punch babies.

[inside]

rave is not a genre.

[dabbler]

yeah defining whatever they mean by "cyber" culture would have to be the first step, but while all electronic music could be called Electronic(a), you can't call all electronic music Rave, or Techno....

[Wood]

if by 'cyber' they mean 'drugs' then definitely D

Who is your sociology teacher Courtney?

[NinjaBoy]

Since all of those "genres" were invented before "cyberculture" was even a fake word the answer is:

You just wasted a lot of money on tuition.

[decypher]

Yeh if you're going to be talking technological determinism then the sociology teacher should look at the analog hardware that influenced early artists like kraftwerk. I hardly think there was a distinctive mass cyberculture in the late 70s that was able to create/disseminate electronic music like today, as this teacher is suggesting. I better choice of words would have been "influenced" rather than "produced" electronic music.

I love when profs try to pretend they have a grasp on youth culture. This one guy last semester dropped drum&bass and "Goldie" in one of his lectures, it was pure lols.

And yeah, the answer is really none of the above. The closest one is probably rave simply because its inception comes about after cyberspace became a reality.

Electronic came from Kraftwerk in the late 60's
Techno came from the Detroit club scene in the 80's

[decypher]

ahhh napster flashbacks nooo.

Pfff, napster. .MOD files or gtfo.

wrong again about the music Dave....

Switched-On Bach was out in '68. The first commercial success of Electronic Music. Kraftwerk is from the 70's. There is electronic music that dates back further the the Bach album.

no, dude, I'm telling you the truth.

Oldskool Rave Hardcore, basically the stuff that Jungle and Hardcore both came from.

Called "rave" because back in 89 this was the harder more techno-driven sounds that was a backlash to all the acid house parties of the late 80s in the UK... And really, can you not picture this type of stuff amid pacifiers and E-tards reaching for lasers?

Also was known as rave:




Fuck, even some of 2 Unlimited's earlier stuff (before they went all eurodance and got the chick and the MC) was considered "Rave Techno".

There was tons of edit-tech producers out there... but Switched On Bach didn't have a whole cultural movement that spawned after it. Kraftwerk was really the first group that decided to be an electronic music band. Their first appearances were right around the cusp of the 70's and from them spawned electro breaks, which later influenced heavily the synthpop phenomenon of the 80's.

Also around the same time as Kraftwerk was Jean Michel Jarre, and Michael Oldfield and all the other classical composers who discovered synthesizers, but I don't think as many got so much popular success as Kraftwerk. And they more spawned off the whole New Wave and New Age sounds that came from Electronic Music than the dance-driven stuff.

If anyone references "The Guide" they're getting kicked square in the nuts.
