英国车库舞曲UK Garage

英国车库舞曲(UK Garage)是浩室舞曲(House)的后来产物。最初的浩室舞曲是产生于美国的芝加哥、纽约等地。1990年代中期,当它来到英国的俱乐部,Todd Edwards等DJ在传统的浩室舞曲加入了一些雷鬼乐元素、变调的女声采样、倒带及搓碟声效,搭配扭曲的鼓打贝斯(Drum'n'Bass)节奏。

英国车库舞曲的早期被称为速度车库舞曲(Speed Garage),不久以后,节奏布鲁斯(R&B)、嘻哈(Hip Hop)等都市元素逐渐融入其中,演化成二步舞曲(2-Step)、 回响重拍(Dubstep)等多种更流行的子风格。

特征

英国车库舞曲在很多乐迷眼里是一种非常含糊的风格,因为它的包容性。由于英国文化的多元性,DJ们在传统的浩室舞曲加入了很多流行元素,并将不同类型的采样及变化的节奏运用其中,所以不同的UK Garage作品也是有鲜明的差异的。

流行时段 1990年代中期至今

英文简介

UK garage (also known as UKG) is a genre of electronic music originating from England in the early 1990s. UK garage is a descendant of house music which originated in Chicago, Detroit, New Jersey and New York. The genre usually features a distinctive syncopated 4/4 percussive rhythm with 'shuffling' hi-hats and beat-skipping kick drums.

Garage tracks also commonly feature 'chopped up' and time-shifted or pitch-shifted vocal samples complementing the underlying rhythmic structure. UK garage was largely subsumed into other styles of music and production in the mid-2000s, including dubstep, bassline and grime. The decline of UK garage during the mid-2000s saw the birth of UK funky, which is closely related.(by Wikipedia)
