Gabba |
AV |
Driving, aggressive, and frantic uptempo (i.e. 160 to 220 BPM) derivative of hardcore
techno. Characteristically loud and often aggressive. Uses a driving and wildly distorted
four-on-the-floor Roland TR-909 kick drum pattern, often overdriven to the point where
it becomes a square wave and makes a recognizably melodic tone. It usually has either
a scary or a happy mood. Vocal delivery is aggressive and rough. The hoover sound
is prominent - a distorted, grainy, sweeping sound which when played on a low key
can create a dark and brooding bass line. Alternatively, when played at higher pitches
the hoover becomes an aggressive, shrieking lead. Faster tracks often apply extremely
fast hoover patterns.

GFunk |
AV |
Originating on the West Coast through the work of Dr. Dre with Above the Law, G-Funk
stood in contrast to many of the dominant Hip Hop sounds of the time. Heavily utilizing
P-Funk samples, Dr. Dre and Cold 187um created a form of Rap which sounded much more
relaxed and organic than other forms of rap. This was achieved through limiting the
amount of samples in a track and dressing them up with live instrumentation. By the
mid-1990s, this style proliferated throughout the Midwest and Southern states, becoming,
for a period, the dominant form of Hip-Hop. G-Funk was not as common among East Coast
rap artists, although artists like Redman would adopt its emphasis on funk samples.

diversity, and integrity. Sampling production techniques became an essential ingredient
of the genre and lyrical subject principally focused on underlying themes of black
identity and socio-political consciousness. Golden Age encompasses the monumental
US releases of these years including, Run-DMC's 'Rising Against', Public Enemy's 'It
Takes A Nation Of Millions To Hold Us Back', Beastie Boys' 'License To Ill' and KRS-One,
Eric B. & Rakim, De La Soul, and A Tribe Call Quest.

keyboard-heavy music with introspective and depressing lyrics.
