[QUOTE]Originally posted by Ish Gebor: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by tific: [qb] Anyone can use it to confirm that soul funk & disco was not boycotted after July 12, 1979. [/qb][/QUOTE]Yawn, it was boycotted. This however doesn't mean black artists stopped making these genres of music. DUH. lol SMH What that boycott means is that it effected black artist mostly, financially. A lot of "white /black labels" were shut down because of this boycott. [QUOTE]Originally posted by tific: [qb] Uptempo music is not disco [/qb][/QUOTE]LOL SMH Disco is uptempo music derived from Jazz. :D It is Jazz, with "advanced" note-progression played on a faster tempo (BPM). Early house had a similar tempo as Disco, as it slowly started to speedup, likely due to D&B, Jungle. The reason D&B, Jungle became speeded music was due to the uptempo east coast hip hop style of hat time. As Goldie explained, he went to NY to see family. This is where he got in contacted with this up tempo style, and decided to speed it up even more to 150 and up. This what he did when he retuned to the UK. By that time house became dominant in the UK. And the underground UK Southeast London scene was crazy. This was the time when house went from a moderate tempo to a faster BPM. [QUOTE]Originally posted by tific: [qb] Many radio stations were also segregated & Disco , soul ,funk artists were also sharing the same record label as non disco artists. [/qb][/QUOTE]Hmm, these genres were considered "black music", someone decided to call it urban music (I think this was somewhere in the late 90s). And black music didn't get overall airplay on commercial radio, with the exception of the "commercial black artist", like those you keep mentioning. :D I am speaking of groups like Slave, Shalamar, SOS Band, Lake Side, Zapp etc. [QUOTE]Originally posted by tific: [qb] It would take a lot more effort than a public demolition to destroy a music genre.. [/qb][/QUOTE]It was successful after all, seen for a commercial side. Because Disco didn't get as much airplay after that. Of course in the black community it kept going, since it is a black subculture and went trough many transformations, such as Electro Funk, new-"R&B", New Jack Swing.
