Electronica/电子音乐
Reaching back to grab the grooves of ''''70s disco/funk and the gadgets of electronic composition, Electronica soon became a whole new entity in and of itself, spinning off new sounds and subgenres with no end in sight two decades down the pike.
电子音乐是通过重新拾起1970年代迪斯科/疯克乐的节拍,加上各种电子化的音乐时髦小设备,很快成为新的音乐个体的。它仍不断地产生新的声音和子门类,更在不到20年的时间里名声大噪。
Its beginnings came in the post-disco environment of Chicago/New York and Detroit, the cities who spawned house and techno (respectively) during the 1980s. Later that decade, club-goers in Britain latched onto the fusion of mechanical and sensual, and returned the favor to hungry Americans with new styles like jungle/drum''''n''''bass and trip-hop.
电子音乐起源于1980年代,来自于芝加哥/纽约和底特律的后迪斯科潮流,在这些城市后来分别产生了House(编者注:以均等的4/4拍为一小节的迪曲类型,也是最常见的一种)和techno音乐(节奏更复杂的,以舞曲编辑器为特征的子音乐类型)。在这十年间的晚些时候,英国的俱乐部参与者迷上了机械化的与情欲感觉的融合电子风格,并将其主打产品诸如Jungle/Drum''''n''''Bass(编者注:一种节拍在190BPM左右的,以鼓和贝斯声音为显著特征的电子音乐子类)和Trip-Hop乐(编者注:将Hip-Hop的速度放慢1/3,以电子器乐演奏和人声为表现形式的,多为小调的迷人音乐子类,代表乐队Portishead)赠送给了耳饥渴的美国人民。
Though most all early electronica was danceable, by the beginning of the ''''90s, producers were also making music for the headphones and chill-out areas as well, resulting in dozens of stylistic fusions like ambient-house, experimental techno, tech-house, electro-techno, etc. Typical for the many styles gathered under the umbrella was a focus on danceable grooves, very loose song structure (if any), and, in many producers, a relentless desire to find a new sound no matter how tepid the results.
