ChicagoBlues |
AV |
One of the epicenters of Traditional Electric Blues, Chicago Blues used amplification
on guitar, electric bass and harmonica. Chicago Blues has a more extended palette
of notes than the standard six-note blues scale; often, notes from the major scale
and dominant 9th chords are added which gives the music more of a 'jazz feel' while
remaining in the confines of the blues genre. Chicago blues is also known for its
heavy rolling bass. Chicago Blues developed in the first half of the twentieth century
due to the Migration of poor Black workers which moved from the South into the industrial
cities of the North such as Chicago.

hi-hat and snare drum patterns (including frequent snare drum roll break downs), simple
bass-lines, textured synth pads, thematic synth stabs and arpeggiation. Vocal question
and answer techniques frequently alternate between a featured R&B vocalist and spoken
lyrical motifs, either performed by an emcee or made up of sampled vocal phrases.
All other variants of house, save for garage house, are effectively descendants of
this style.

Crunk |
AV |
Tends to be at a lower tempo than other styles of hip-hop. It features drum machine
rhythms, layered synths, heavy bass, and shouted vocals. It frequently incorporates
call-and-response. Crunk is a party-focused form of hip-hop, and its lyrics are typically
simple and hedonistic - Crunk rarely addresses the deeper social themes prevalent
in many other forms of hip-hop. Crunk originated in the 1990s in the American South,
and was first played publicly at African-American strip clubs in Memphis, Tennessee.
It was extremely popular throughout the first decade of the 21st century. 'Get Low'
by Lil Jon and the Ying Yang Twins is an archetypal Crunk recording.
